evangelion was so fucking good!! That's why I watched gundam gquuuuuuux because it was made by the same direction: Hideaki Anno. It's apparently an alternate timeline to the actual gundam timeline though...

I wonder how much a knockoff model would cost.

I'm so hype to visit japan, whenever that happens...gosh what's gonna happen to my savings when i go? I'm gonna end up buying so much stuff lmao

Since you praise it so highly, I might have to watch PR tonight and I'll stay away from the sequel lmao
Thank you for the recommendation!

Prices depend on what and where you’re buying from, though usually it’s an acceptable price for the size of the model you’re buying.

Travel and staying is surprisingly cheap in Japan, the most money I spent was on the stuff I bought haha :p

Yess, please let me know what you think afterwards! Watching PR for the first time is definitely an amazing experience.

Ill see what the prices seem to be for me, where im at.

And yeah, thats why i worry for my savings when I go to japan and see the merch for all the shows that I love but havent been able to buy any merch for- T_T

And yeah, ill let you know, but ill probably just make a post and tag you with my thoughts on PR (if thats okay with you!)

Oh, there is no saving from that, somehow I always manage to spend all my savings (╥﹏╥)

Oh feel free to! We always need more PR propaganda. (I will order a hit on you if you don’t give it a 5/5 though) > ᴗ•

More mecha love, hehe ;p
It feels in a very unique position where it’s so popular in Japan and with rich af collectors, yet not a lot of people that I come across turn out to like it

True. I dont come across many people that are that into it either...rip

I am planning a series that is basically just a love letter to various anime genres that I love and ofc, ive included mechs in that story as well!

That sounds really cool! A lot of the anime discourse always seems to be the extremely popular stuff which I don’t have a problem with obv, yet so many amazing gems are overlooked

truly.
I usually try to keep up with the new airing animes, and it seems to be the same each season, the popular ones are what everyone's talking about and there are so many gems that are completely ignored. Like yeah, the popular shows are great but can someone also give attention to the other banger shows?

Like in the newest season of anime (Spring 2026) one show that is getting overlooked by a lot of the international audience is Nippon Sangoku. It seems to be doing really well in Japan, which I'm happy about because that means we'll get a second season, most likely...but international fans are kinda missing out on Nippon Sangoku.

If you're interested in a refreshing artstyle, smart characters, politics and military strategy etc. then this show is definitely worth checking out!

I haven’t been watching anime a lot recently but I’ll definitely give that a shot! Sounds very cool.

Yeah usually Japan and the west can have very different reactions to anime, interesting how that turns out.
