An hour-long panel, presented by V at Anime Boston 2009, overviewing how the characters of "Neon Genesis Evangelion" fit the descriptions of Abnormal Personality Disorders (as defined by the DSM-IV guide) so perfectly, that series creator Hideaki Anno clearly must have based the characters on these disorders.

  • eva is a lot more Nietzchian than Christian. a least it seems to me to be so.

  • 1-I stated in Panel #2 (this is #3) that the creators at Gainax openly stated the show has nothing to do with Christianity

    2-it has nothing to do with the works of Nietzche either, no more than any other philosopher, and you'd just be imposing your own views on it; the same arguement could be made that "Sesame Street" is like Nietzche.

  • Raxer21 you say noobs dont know whats good, but is being fixated on old school and refusing to move on and accept newer anime any better? that just makes you as bad as noobs refusing to whatch old school anime

  • Nice to know that another pro is explaining it to noobs, i've been noticing that their is too many of them these days that think that the best anime are fucking Naruto and Full Metal Alchemist, if only they could watch stuff like Serial Experiments Lain and Evangelion

  • @ReVolutionOfEva Seriously? The guy fawkes things is pretty fucking retarded and you have no clue what you are talking about. Also you obviously don't know what existentialism is, because Evangelion clearly defines it. Hideaki Anno lived it. Also don't say "newbies".

  • tech support sucks!
