This show is something else. Thats all I have to say for the beginning. Visuals: 8/100 The graphics in this sad excuse for a spin off of the original look like they were made by someone who had a very vague idea of what the character designs are like. Nothing is redeeming. 220https://i.ibb.co/314hRc6/AnimePahePetitEvaEvangelionSchool03476pEnterTheBlogmp47110.png The show ends up looking like this for most of the run and only gets better in the last 8 episodes and even then the improvements are minimal. Many of the movements feel robotic and very surreal. The backgrounds are usually one image reused throughout the whole episode. The face molds look like bad pottery. 220https://i.ibb.co/prrC2Kk/AnimePahePetitEvaEvangelionSchool06476pEnterTheBlogmp415413.png There is no good excuse for why the show looks like this. This started airing in 2007 so CG had already developed quite a bit. Even for a spoof show they had to have been able to do better. Soundtrack: 9/100 There isnt much to say about the soundtrack. There arent any tracks by Shiro Sagisu so its just generic music. Nothing really flattering but nothing really bad either. Some goofy sound effects to try to get you to laugh but honestly nothing really works. If you came to this expecting a good OST you should probably just stick to the TV show. Characters: 4/100 There isnt really any character development. There isnt any dialogue so you kind of have to make out intentions and motivations by reading facial expressions and the stickers that appear in the speech and thought bubbles. Reis character is split up into three identical sisters each one representing her different states. The youngest being Rei 1 the middle child being the Rei we see during most of the series and the eldest being similar to Rei during instrumentality. Yui is also a character despite the Unit 01 existing simultaneously. Gendo is almost attached to his desk and chair probably a joke on the original series. Kaworu is trying to cause something to happen but disappears one episode and never appears again. Asuka is nicer for the most part but mainly because most of the episodes focus on Shinji. Story: 1/100 There isnt really an overarching story but each episode has its own plot. For instance episode 2 has Shinji being chased by Unit 01 for stumbling into her cave? and the chase goes on for most of the episode. Episode 7 sees Kaworu trying to let the school be hit by a huge asteroid only for a booger from Unit 01 to completely destroy it. 220https://i.ibb.co/7yvQP85/AnimePahePetitEvaEvangelionSchool07476pEnterTheBlogmp412861.png Honestly Kaworus face here perfectly describes what you feel when watching this. The story mainly consists of cheap gags to try and get a laugh out of you. Overall The story is weak but thats to be expected of a gag series the graphics are pretty bad and nothing stands out besides how hilariously bad it is. Even if youre a diehard Eva fan Id really only recommend watching this if you have a bunch of friends to laugh with.
