Literally every single time without fail
nice try, but everyone knows that evangelion is a tokusatsu, not a mecha
eva is shit for teenagers to wank over
the guy who animated this scene is a brony and furry btw

>>23349337 (OP)You're trolling, but I genuinely think Eva has no competition in the mecha genre for the number one spot. It's unusual.
>>23349527It's a lot of things anon but yes those are some of it. Its also Megazone, Ideon, Godzilla and original Gundam. I remember anons bringing up a jap movie that Anno loves too, some black and white war one. I never did watch that.
>>23349527It's true regardless of how much you seethe
>>23349598Yes anon I can admit I haven't seen one of the things that Anno based his life on. The other 10 I have seen though. You ever watched UFO? Its fun!
>>23349603I have, that's how I know you are full of shit.
Why didn’t shinji just do this to scare off his dad. Is he stupid?
>>23349533It’s not even in the number one spot of 1995 for the mecha genre. New mobile report gundam wing.
>>23349539>Its also Megazone,What's the Megazone influence?
