Sure watch RahXephon, but there's also a couple of films called Love & Pop and Ritual actually created by the guy that made the show we're all talking about.

I watched some of that show about the killer robot who turns into a maid for the kid of her creator and there were so many glaring parallels to evangelion that it was just amazing.

Sure, but that copy seems to be genuinely corrupted. I don't remember the sound quality being that degraded.

I think they're talking about Mahoromatic but I'm not sure and I'm shocked I can spell that from memory.

Yes, and I didn't watch the second season because I didn't feel like it, and I didn't see it ending any more neatly and nicely than like chobits or something. It was good and fun otherwise.

I only read the manga for mahoromatic. it was cute but lovely.

then again, I also read the manga for Android Ana Maiko and Steel Angel Kurumi so I basically grew up eating poo poo in the 90-2000s.

I always liked D&R more than it probably deserved. For some reason the string quartet practice framework was really appealing, even if it was just wrapped around a recap clipshow

I know there's a Japanese sci fi movie called Blue Christmas that has blue blood aliens in it??

Also there was a mention of the film in the episode 9 commentary about this film being the origin of Blood type Blue in Evangelion.

As far as RahXephon I suspect the blue blood is likely a reference to Blue Christmas and likely to the literal Spanish term "sangre azul" which meant Blue Blood but was used to describe people of royalty.
RahXephon has a lot of Aztech/Mayan poo poo in it where as Eva is all about using the craziest poo poo in Christianity.

Just the filler violin scenes I believe.

I don't know why they bother including Rebirth anymore since the version they release is literally the first 30 minutes of The End instead of the actual original Rebirth that had alternate (earlier) animation and different audio cues.

I want to say there's a scene of Toji trying to play basketball without an arm and leg but I may have just imagined that. If its not from there I don't know where the gently caress I wouldve gotten that scene from.

Rebirth had the "REBIRTH" title cards instead of the ones in EoE. that's a difference

There was a storyboard depicting a cut scene from EoE that had I think Touji, Kensuke and Shinji in the abandoned blown out school having a farewell while Touji played basketball in a wheelchair.

Actually, script here, storyboard scans below: http://wiki.evageeks.org/Resources:End_of_Evangelion_Screenplays#Touji_.26_Kensuke.27s_farewell_.28Basketball_Court.29

Yeah, Death is pretty interesting for a clip show recap. Not really a recap though, more of a discussion of stuff. Rebirth is pointless though.

I just realised that Evangelion was Anno's attempt at doing a Gerry Anderson show but he made the whole thing the classic 'dream' episode where everyone dies, the organisation set up to protect humanity fails and the world burns.
