    Ever since, Rahxephon came out, I have been watching it a lot. The show/movie has shaped my view on anime/manga and life its self. The whole plot was so addicting the love between Kamina and Meshima wasamazing to see, how they would go anywhere to find eachother.

    But, the thing is, not a lot of people know of Rahxephon, most think "Oh, its a EVA copy, so there is no point in watching it" Well, there wrong, Rahxephon is waaaaay better than EVA like what I said above.

    So what do you think of Rahxephon's under status?

    I'm pretty sure that there are threads on Rah's great under-ratedness. The good news is, the show is playing on G4-TechTV's Anime Invasion. At least that puts SOME of it out into the public eye.

    I thought it was SIMILAR to Eva...yet, better, because the ending was what Eva was SUPPOSED to be. I'd divulge more...but, my mind's kinda haywire at the moment. I'll re-write this when I think of something better. =P

    Oh, and welcome to the Rah clique and boards. =]

    *claps his hands for a Rahxephon fan*

    Well...uh, the forum cut off some of the old topics, so when I joined there were no topics here, so I deceded to put my thought and 3 cents into the matter.

    I didn't knw that Rahxephon's ending was suppose to be likw EVA's. I didn't even know EVA was aiming owards a Raxehpon style ending. EVA ended rather randomly, the neding wan't that great but to few they said it was teh ending ending. The movie sdidn't even clear up teh eding at all. Rahxephon's ending answered all questions that I had.

    Personally, I pray to God, if there is one, that the G4 showing will help get more fans here. I have been searching for months upon months, maybe a year to find a forum that has a Rahxephon forum and activity, which that searching is over.

    Thanks for the welcome.

    What I stated was actually, RahXephon's ending was complete. As in, there were plot holes as to HOW they got there, but everyone's feelings and concerns and goals were met and shown.

    Evangelion, on the other hand, assumptions had to be made. And, in turn, fans would grip on everything they can to further prove them right.

    RahXephon's movie was also made the right way. Although I'm not happy that they did not redraw the whole movie...instead using stuff they used for the original series...but the story was in perfect counterpoint to the series.

    Eva's movie was radically different from what the TV ending was supposed to be. The movie rather states, "We f#$#@$ up, and we paid for it", not the TV's, "I can be stronger because I now believe in myself".

    It was just better overall execution. And, for what it's worth...Mishima's hot.

    I see. well, teh BONES crew really helped out the Rahxephon team since they helped out making Bebop too. The music is Rahxephon was jsut utterly amazing especially the background msuic, beinning and endings. Thankfully I have all of them.

    I loved teh ending of the show, with teh Earth's governer and the feathers.........

    Well, Misima is hot old and young.

    But, was it just me or when
    Mishima older one, was having sex with Kamina, did you ever get teh MILF, reaction? lol
