Whether or not Anno is a genius or just lucked out, it's the pinnacle of the genre in my opinion and my (as well as many others) all time favorite anime.

Great series don't get me wrong, it's just 3.0 kinda ruined somethings for me.

Favorite scene is when is Shinji is about go with Rei and Misato is trying to stop him. All they had to do was tell him what was going on from the get go.

It's pretentious. The story is very poorly told. I don't like it.

The only cool thing about it is the fact that they portray the apocalypse/end of humanity as a sorta good thing at the end.

No, the secret handshake is to be able to appreciate Tomino's subliminal messages about human society.

Evafags expect every 2deep4u cliché handed out on a plate. If they don't get their meaningless symbolism, they can't extrapolate any meaning from the work.

Evafags didn't pay attention to how G Reco was mirroring current Japanese society for the reason mentioned above.

Explain what happened in the show and what Tomino achieved with it.

Oh wait, you can't, because G Reco is actually a work with a lot more depth than Eva. It also actually require the viewers to pay close attention to the subliminal messages. No, it doesn't have meaningless symbolisms for you to rely on.

In other words, you didn't understand G Reco / You were too dumb to get it.

It's not about liking G Reco or not. G Reco is not mere entertainment.

G Reco isn't about flashy symbolism, and appealing to edgy try hards. It's a wake up call to the society we live in today. Most kids who like Eva's deepfag pretensions simply couldn't get it.

G Reco wasn't made for peasants like you. G Reco was made for high minded intellectuals who care about the future of humanity. That's what makes it so much better than Eva.

It had no try hard appeal. It's a honest show about a honest subject.

>Eva was a pretty original spin on mecha anime
really? what did it do different from other mecha apart from being popular and enabling the late night anime market to take place?

he's an evatard. he criticises people for not getting eva, but he didn't get a show with a much greater depth like g reco.

This person is trying to replicate the pretentiousness he perceives fans of Eva to possess in an effort to give them a taste of their own medicine!

Naruto is also a masterpiece with deep meanings, but people are too dumb to perceive all the deepness that Naruto has.

I didn't enjoy it and, unlike with most big franchises, I can't for the life of me understand why someone else would
I also can't help but feel genuinely sorry for it's fanbase, because to me it doesn't seem to respect their fans in the slightest

except g reco is actually deep.

this is evidenced by the fact that people didn't get it.

and that tomino is known for inserting subliminal messages into his works.
