I'm writing this down just because of the reviews of the hardcore fans of the guy praising this thing like it's the second coming of Citizen Kane when in reality it's just overblown, pretentious, boring like it was his previous "movie", Love and Pop. And it's also laughable that the same people pretend this is different from Evangelion because of the lack of mechas while in reality the themes and the in-your-face, navel-gazing oriented writing style are the same the dragged down the second part of Evangelion, overdepressive stuff that is even more laughable this time because there are no real consequences from it. Mix the package with overblown classical music that is completely out of place and dialogues that are repeated over and over and over and over and you have a recipe for a failure, failure that is better than the atrocity named Love and Pop simply because there are no "experimental" - read: unwatchable - camera shots this time. When the female protagonist made a dissertion out of a pRoN magazine with Giant Boobs stamped on it about the unnecessary nature of sex I quit this crap for good, because this is directed from the same guy who created the giant-breasted (complete with full nude showing) Jung Freud in Gunbuster - also used as the protagonist of an X-rated game designed by him - and the same person who put several gratuitious fanservice in Evangelion just for the sake of it. Me thinks I'll stick to the first part of the Evangelion series (except a couple of good episodes in the second part), the first five Gunbuster episodes and to the Cutie Honey live-action movie as the best things Hideaki Anno ever made in his whole life, I leave the rest to the fanboys going crazy for "cool" words and pictures that don't mean absolutely nothing at the end of the day.
