It's been 30 years... - Dartz - 10-03-2025
...since an Otaku first gooned to Rei Ayanami.
(And the first episode of Evangelion premiered on Wednesday, October 4th, 1995)
Imagine coming home from cram scool at 18:30 in the evening and whatching this thing for the first time. This weird mix of giant robot cliche and what-the-fuck? Would you have kept watching it without knowing what it was to become?
Anyway - not only have we had the series - we've had the manga, the movies, the weird AU's, the merchandise and that one garage figurine of Asuka sitting on a cutaway toilet (Seriously, WTF?). And it still lingers, drawing fans like a siren. Once captured, you cannot escape.
It's also been about 20 years since I started *that bloody fic* and maybe ten years since I lost any ability to create. So it goes. Time and the world move on.
