Angels and Demons
Watched Rebuild of Eva 2.2 recently. I gotta say, the back quotes don't lie, it is visually stunning. Eva's got amazing, viscreal fight scenes as always. The Angels are even more crazy mindfucky than they were the first time around and I love it.
All the original scenes made for the movie are fantastic and would've been right at home in the original tv series. But the remakes of scenes from the TV show didn't really stack up to the original; there was too much exposition or elaboration on feelings, when the original expressed things with subtly through body language and the actions of the characters.
That being said, Rebuild is still pretty much just a treat for fans. Thankfully Eva's got a lot of fans.
My pokemon playing pretty much ground to a halt because I can't get into the Dream World. Instead, I've been playing Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey. Shin Megami is one of those series that has a lot of small flaws or inconviences going against it, but if it's right up your alley, you will get crazy hooked.
Things I like:
-Love fusing and talking to demons. I like things with a strong occult or mythological flavour and the number of demons you can fuse or recruit has this in spades. Lots of customization here; there are endless ways to fuse a demon and the moveset will be different just about every single time. And conversing with demons can yeild some funny responses and can help you get away from battles scott free.
-Love the fiends. Monsters based off of Revalations are win.
-Love the MC. He is so manly~. A breath of fresh air compared to all the teens we usually get.
-Like Zelenin. I think she's something called a Law Hero? Anyway, I feel really sorry for what happened to her and she seems like a solid person.
-Like the Music. Can't get enough of the main battle and boss battle themes when they get going.
-Cool environments. Only Bootes outside the castle makes me want to flip tables, but the other levels are interesting. An icy cave that turns to a burning city getting bombed? A demonic shopping mall? A decadent palace of torture? Cool beans.
-LOVE, LOVE JIMENEZ. I thought he was kinda a jerk when you first talk to him, but the scene in Bootes where he got Bugaboo won me over. And he seems to take a liking to the MC eventually. Jimenez is just so bro~.
Back to dungeon crawling!
Also, these people make Westeros foods!
