At the same time, as a staunch Red Mansion fan and EVA fan, I have secretly noticed that the two great works have a lot in common.
Here, a brief summary, some similarities in artistic expression:
the plot, the gray line of grass and snakes, and the pulse of a thousand miles.
Narrative, subtle to the point.
Viewing angle (mirror), front and side aliasing, rich and interesting.
Rhythm, wavy progression.
EVA soundtrack, Red Mansions Poetry.
The characters are similar by coincidence: the male protagonist with feminine temperament, the multi-angle emotional entanglement, the three female protagonists with contrasting personalities, the strict father, the involuntary fate, the questioning of the world view.
Three heroines:
Asuka, Rei, mature Misato
Daiyu, Baochai, and innocent Xiangling . I will
mention it here, and I personally agree with the ending of the heroine of Xiangling's dark line.

Can't help but boldly imagine that "A Dream of Red Mansions" draws on Evangelion to end.
———————————————————————————————————————
Turn an old post in 2001, a coincidence fifteen years ago . Today I think he underestimated EVA. Many scenes are still eye-catching art classics.

I recently watched EVA again, and it's the seventh time I read it from beginning to end. Legend has it that in ancient times someone died after reading Red Mansions for the seventh time, so I was a little worried before watching EVA for the seventh time. But fortunately I am still alive after watching it, EVA did not take my life. ^_^
I have always regarded EVA as the Red Mansions in animation. I think EVA and "Dream of Red Mansions" are similar in many aspects, such as the setting of three children, the setting of nerv, the extremely individual character depiction, the plot is incomplete, right The research and cracking of puzzles, the open momentum and far-reaching artistic conception, and the huge imagination space left for people, etc. I remember that in 1999, I saw someone on the Internet boasting that they had watched EVA (referring to the TV version) 100 times. At that time, I really admired it. I will give him a rough calculation of the time: it is equivalent to sitting still and watching for more than a month, it is not long! At the time I did find it easy to do and decided to aim for it, but now I see it the seventh time and it's not enough. I do have this idea, and I still have it now, that is, to create an EVA study like "Red School". However, EVA can never be compared with "Dream of Red Mansions". You can watch Red Mansions seven times and you can still see new things, but EVA is completely different after watching it seven times. It is disappointing, because I am in When I watched it for the seventh time, I paid attention to the mistakes in the details. I found that the whole EVA has too many inaccuracies and sparseness, and it is full of holes. I don’t think it’s the fault of the work itself. Baoyu in the Red Chamber said about tea tasting: One cup is for tasting, two for drinking, and three for thirst-quenching idiots. The same animation is also the case, even the excellent animation cannot be watched countless times. In my opinion, EVA is a work that can represent the peak of animation. Although it has many levels, it is enough to watch it at most three times: the first time to watch the characters, the second time to watch the plot, and the third time to understand and appreciate ,enough. Those who are not like us who are crazy about EVA, there is no need to watch it five or six times.
In fact, out of the seven times I watched it, I watched it six times in 1999. I watched it three times in a row when I first watched EVA, and then after I got the EVA theatrical version in April ("Sincerely For You", "Death and Evil") Newborn") and watched the EVATV version three times, and completely became an EVA fan. As for the theatrical version, I’ve watched it at least 20 times. I really didn’t see any feeling before I stopped it. EVA’s 25th (Do you love me?) and 26th (Take care of yourself?) .) I have also watched it at least seventeen or eight times, and there are also some fragments I watched in order to study EVA during the period, which can be said to be countless.
Since I came back to the magic way in 1999 (in fact, I returned to the animation circle, haha), it has been completely based on EVA. Now I stay here because of EVA. The so-called EVA-centric theory: everything is carried out with EVA as the standard. judge. Even I am writing other non-EVA-related comments to complete our grand EVA teachings. We are indeed doing this kind of work, we have been working hard, studying psychoanalysis and existential philosophy, solving EVA puzzles, creating literary novels, writing letters of advice to TV stations, etc. Compared with the original 99 years, we are now We have also accomplished many things. For example, we have our own online EVA research institute "EVA Research Station" ( http://www.cnnerv.com ), which has entered the stage of scale; The EVA has already started playing, named Sky Eagle Warrior. In the past, we always believed that to promote EVA vigorously in China, we must find a way to broadcast it on TV. Thinking about the first "public release" of EVA in mainland China that I know of, it was at the Shanghai Comic Con in the summer of 2000. Although it was only a few minutes, it was full of people when the film was released, and the audience broke out at the same time. The cheers and applause, as long as you have experienced that scene in person, you can feel strongly what we need - it was a scene that can make people cry - really, for this moment, for this moment The applause we really waited too long. Looking at the current broadcast situation of TV stations, it is really difficult for me to tell whether I am happy or worried. I think it is too difficult to truly popularize EVA for everyone if animation is always a subcultural carrier. There are still some frustrating things. For example, the expected second shock in 1999 and 2000 has never happened, and when will the live-action version of EVA and the "new theatrical version" of EVA that have been rumored to be seen, plan well Has the huge Geo Front 3rd New Tokyo City broken ground in Hakone? On March 31, 2001, Goddess Ayanami (actually it was the birthday of her seiyuu Hayashihara) didn't know where she settled down... In fact, it has always been a group of EVA fans who have been tossing around, since 1998. There is no new EVA, although it is impossible for the story to have new progress, but it still attracts many people. I think its charm is beyond its animation itself.
Now it seems that my feelings for EVA have become dull. Every day I habitually browse the forums, and I don't know what to do. I think even that day, I found that EVA can no longer meet my needs at this level. I stepped out of this circle, and I am no longer fascinated by EVA, but EVA's thoughts, EVA's music, EVA's language, EVA The style and influence on me will not be erased. This used to be the most crazy thing for me. It opened up a series of thinking about myself and the civilized world. It made me discover another self, which deeply are implanted in my marrow, and these influences are reflected in my novels, in my poetry and literary criticism. angel19th will always be a believer in EVA.
Finally, at the end, I want to mention the names of some people, like jedi, the founder of the EVA research station. Since the establishment of the research station, jedi has not made a penny of profit from the station, and has invested a lot of personal effort and money. , and gathered many EVA fans; and ASUKA, who established the fan club "Apostle Hunting Area", is really not easy as a 15-year-old little sister; and sirens who have translated many wonderful Japanese EVA fans, There are also MSL friends who have contributed to the comic exhibition, and many others who I don't know the name of who have contributed... and Quester YMJ, the webmaster of Taiwan's final song of the soul, although he has never The first half of the sentence with this super EVA fan, but after watching his "Moon Child" I know what a real fanfiction is, and he made me realize that we can also create a lot of layers, not just It is Yinfeng Songyue playing cosplay, he has always been my goal. These people have made practical contributions to the development of EVA, and have wishful enthusiasm and dedication for animation. I think they are the most lovely people. :)
