Not him, but it sounds like you were trying to mean 'bear my children'.

Loins refers to the groinal area / libido, bear means to carry. You're asking her to carry your sex drive / crotch, which doesn't make much sense. So I think he's discounting you based on that.

True, but I am too tired or Rei vs Asuka shitfest, and went for Mari, just to agitate rest of the discourse,and bring fresh breeze into shitposting around it.
...And that's why I also have folder dedicated for her. 100% understandable, right?

>Mari

A useless character only introduced for the sake of merchandising. She hasn't had a real development or important influence on the plot until now. She just exists to make fanservice scenes. Anno has become a parody of himself: create NGE as a critique of the scapism and alienation of otaku culture and japanese youth in general, and then he comes with the unsubstantial and fetishistic rebuilds where plane characters like Maki exists.

>>11801505
Could be I just liked the color schemes and the style of it, but I think it was well done even with my own bias. I agree they do push the "artsy" thing pretty hard but that doesn't make the visuals bad.

>>11801512
Kaiki's story was the good part of that season. Compared to other anime being made these days it's much better. Relating it to western movies and tv shows its still above average, but it doesn't rank as "really good". It would be really good if it didn't put in the stupid shit they put in every anime ever made. But if NISIOISIN didn't do that it wouldn't have been popular enough to get anime funding. Good borderline case considering the industry.
