I didn't like Eva, and I said as much. Note, however, that I don't think that the series was all bad, or that nobody should like it. I just... didn't. Elements of it were good, but the series as a whole left a bad taste in my mouth.Part of Eva's problem for me was, admittedly, the budget problems. The last half of the series had lots of stock footage and long pauses, and the last two episodes were half psychotherapy and half clipshow. Had the series not run out of money would I have liked it better? Probably not, as the better funded movies gave me a headache. But you can't just assume that somebody doesn't understand something just because they don't like it. I understand Eva's metaplot quite well thank you, and I like it. More than the actual series, in fact. I really think that differences of opinion should be treated as such instead of as attacks. That said, the stereotypical anime mentioned definately bears many motifs that would be easily identified as "anime", without adhering to any specific series.</blockquote>
