Pick One From The
Past – Clannad vs Evengelion vs Lain
In my endless demand, I try to see the maximum of possible animes, trying to keep me up to date, an hard balance between past animes and the current season, it's virtual impossible!
But now I decided
to see one of three successful animes, that the community speaks (for good or
bad):
- Clannad (Kyoto Animation
- 2008)
- Neon Genesis Evangelion
(Gainax - 1995)
- Serial Experiments
Lain (Triangle Staff - 1998)
These anime, don't
have much in common except the fact that they are still spoken.
So, you can help
me choose, by voting in the poll.
A personal note, about the animes in the poll:
Clannad, from what I hear, read and saw, I think is the maximum exponent of the Moeh era, it's not my favorite genre but something tells me, that I will enjoy it!
Serial Experiments Lain is probably my favorite genre, I confess, I tryed to watch once, but didn't manage to pass the animation, now is the time for the rematch :P
And then we have the mythical, Evangelion, I watched
some disordered episodes, now is time to enjoy the story! I confess I'm afraid
of breaking past memories of this anime, but by other side, I'm not a fan of
Mech's, but Evangelion always was the exception, because of past memories :)
Thanks for casting your vote :)
The poll will be open until the first of June.

More people are going to vote Neon Genesis Evangelion and Clannad because they are more well known and bear much more simple themes than Serial Experiments Lain. Clannad is a tragic love story while Neon Genesis impressively combines action with deep psychological themes. However Lain goes beyond the everyday reality and questions reality itself in a manner that's even more intricate and confusing than The Matrix.
ReplyDeleteThis is of course the major reason for popular dislike/apathy towards the series. But for those of us who enjoy a challenge and like decoding extremely intricate plots that sometimes leave you feeling high from the visual content you've just received this is the anime to watch.
If you are a supporter of the underrated yet superior anime series everywhere Lain is the best choice.
SEL sucks dick.
