>>132800119Oh great another dumbass thinking Pacific Rim had anything to do with Evangelion.
Did you know that there were giant robot shows before Eva, and that Del Toro saw them as a kid?
He cited Tetsujin 28th, Mazinger Z and Ultraman during his trip to Japan. He's Mexican and nearly as old as Anno himself for fuck sake. Of course he didn't watch Evangelion, but watched Mazinger Z and the likes as a kid, just like Anno. Those were the primary frames of reference for Pacific Rim.
I don't know why it's so hard for evatards to grasp the fact that he probably had a very different childhood from the average American, considering his age and nationality.
