Sixten needs some help understanding a couple of Japanese blog posts which are about Sixten's art.
UPDATE: While I'm doing a linky post, here's another link. Someone asked John what, if anything, mecha anime have contributed to the general field. John's answer: Gainaxing originally appeared in a mecha show, and revolutionized fan service forever after.

Eva had a huge effect thematically. Sure, it had a few mecha show imitators, but in a larger sense, it opened the field up to a lot of more-sophisticated successors. (Not necessarily that everybody who had a deep, philosophical plot in mind owes it to Eva - heaven forfend. Eva's actual philosophical depth was about that of a kiddy pool. But Eva's success meant that other shows of that depth could find the corporate buy-in they needed to actually get animated and air...)

Enclose all spoilers in spoiler tags:
[spoiler]your spoiler here[/spoiler]
Spoilers which are not properly tagged will be ruthlessly deleted on sight.
Also, I hate unsolicited suggestions and advice. (Even when you think you're being funny.)
At Chizumatic, we take pride in being incomplete, incorrect, inconsistent, and unfair. We do all of them deliberately.
