Neon Genesis Evangelion

desc

as someone who was kind of in the dark about anime in general up until the last year or so, this series always stuck me as some ethereal work of art that my feeble brain was probably incapable of understanding. since it had been hyped up for so long and most of the media i consume is more on the abstract side anyways, i figured i'd take the time to delve into the anime and see what it was Truly All About once and for all. after finishing it and watching breakdown after breakdown on youtube i can confidently say i'm still not entirely sure.
however what a wild ride. i had a great time following each character through their own internal crises. and there were a whole lot. plenty of dope robot moments. seriously those things are beasts. this whole thing is chock full of seriously thought provoking themes revolving around fun things like human nature and existentialism. it's been stuck on my mind. everytime i think too deeply or dramatically about something i can't help but feel shinji-fied.

i found this website while on an old internet deep dive and it piqued my interest. it's an old chat service from the mid 90's that allowed you to roam around as your own avatar. also used to be apparentley pretty poppin.
this existed before i did so the nostalgia factor dips into the unknown category for me. but yet, i yearn for something i never knew.
i actually downloaded this and went exploring on it. it wasn't the easiest to navigate and although there were (surprisingly) people online, none of them really said anything. i ended up looking around online and and found a little more lore regarding old players, & the site owner who is apparentley keeping it alive out of his own pocket. i also stumbled upon some conspiracy theories about how there's allegedley some satanic cult within the game, although upon looking through the subreddit, it doesn't seem to be much more than rumors. i didn't see anything that spooky when i was on at least.
i did find some pretty cool music archives though. i recommend downloading it n checking it out if you're into that sorta thing. there's plenty of archived player-created worlds with a lot to explore
