Neon Genesis Evangelion for me. The original ending where everyone was clapping around Shinji was so weird. It's at its best when it's about giant robots fighting the angels but gets really strange once the characters are out of the cockpit.
I like Evangelion specifically because most of it wasn't intended to have a meaning. Anno just put it in the show because he thought it looked/sounded cool.
This is similar to why I like games from Hideo Kojima. Its just filled with stuff he thought is cool. It doesn't always have to have a meaning or explanation.
Metal Gear Solid really clicked for me even though it had some strange shit going on with it too. Maybe because the tone and pacing was handled pretty well. The Patriots, Les Enfants Terribles, and even Revolver Ocelot's arm possession just fit the narrative quite nicely.
To me it always felt like people were trying to justify the plot and setting as some sort of grandiose idea, when it's just a shit idea with random words and images.
Fuck off. I've watched deep dives of episodes, with frames explained down to pixels, and it's still random shit for the sake of shock, nothing more.
I dont wanna be mean but you might enjoy this.
It beats NGE's convoluted story so thanks.
When you’re done with that marathon of a video (based on post timestamps I’d guess you’re about halfway through it now), you might enjoy Brilliant Century Duck Crisis
Explanation
Regular Show is a (brilliant, IMO) western cartoon that eventually did an anime parody episode that started with parodying the NGE opening - which is what I’ve linked above. The plot of Regular Show builds up slowly so I wouldn’t actually recommend jumping in with this episode as I’m not sure it would make much sense… but I couldn’t resist linking it anyway, sorry.BOKURA WA BABY DUCKS! .
