Welcome to Gaia! ::

Well, I saw Evagelion before this and I guess it was okay. E7 is the first Mecha anime I've really liked but I didn't even think of Eva when I watched Eureka7.
The only reason I thought of Shinji Ikari at first was when I heard Renton kinda like say something and he was sad or screaming and I thought he sounded like Shinji so..... Not making much sence, am I?

....well That's the only similarity I see besides Eureka and Rei''s blue hair, Renton and Shinji's sometimes emo moments, and the Coralians and angels.

Question: I'm still not so sure what a Coralian is! I'm way passed the episode were Renton was asking everyone and I'm still not so sure! I just know they're like rare and dangerous I guess? Help please, my brain hurts...

Thankx! I guess I understand now.

if anything eureka 7 is similiar to eva in a lot of ways
Angels= Scub Coral

Also, I have no brain. Give the first person to notice this 100g.

eek You don't have a brain!?!? where did it go did you lose it??

I was and still am a huge Eva and Gundam fan but when I watched Eureka 7 it just blew them away....if you get what i'm saying. I never thought they were "ripping off" of "copying" on another in anyway.

Is this a brib? confused jk jk

YAY!! FREE MONEY!! blaugh heart

i hate gundam, but i love eureka 7. gundam has too much pointless battling. eureka 7 has love and drama, deep and dynamic characters, and the villains seem to be more realistic too.

well, my 2 cents. (I'm not using the red and black sorry)

Evangelion and Eureka Seven are simular...

for the first half of the series, but not the second.

If you only watched the first 15 or so episodes then you would only know eureka as the cute quiet girl she used to be. That version of her did act alot like Rai. Her loyalty to Holland paralleled Rai's loyalty to Ikari alot.

Also the main characters are young boys who are chosen to pilot mac-daddy mecha that are more powerful than any other around. This being Eva unit1 and Nirvash TypeZero.

(It should be noted here that Shinji and Renton's personalities were always differant. Shinji is normally timid and withdrawn outside of the mech, while Renton is NORMALY bold and outgoing outside his.)

Futhermore, The first time we see Asuka pilot unit 2 seems very simular to the first time we see Anemone pilot TypeTheEnd. Crazy girl fight fight fight.

Tall-ho' and Misato both get drunk, and walk around grinning and scowling all the time. Both of there supeiors (holland and Ikari) rely on them to make things happen in battle. (hollands approach is alot more hands on though)

Here's the big one. Misha and Akagi There basically the same character. One of my favorite quotes from Eureka Seven is when Tall-ho' and Misha are talking about Eureka back in the cave.

Misha: "This has nothing to do with Nerve (NERV)." rofl

However, after around episode 22 (the arm scene) things really start changing. The whole Beams storyline takes the similarities away. There is no parallel in Eva for Ray&Charles. In fact the idea of Shinji finding a real set of parents is just down right desirable. (His father was worthless)

The corallian-antibodies attacking the city-states could be compared to the angels attacks but since the angels attack on there own and the antibodies are only responding to attack that point doesn't stand up to well.

*spoiler* I'd really recommend not reading this. It has to do with the last episode

One thing though. In the final episode we do see something that parallels the Evangelion movie. Nirvash's joining with the scub coral makes it something akin to a god.
In the eva movie Unit 1 is used in a simular (sorta) way to do the whole Instrumentality effect. both mecha's end up as god type figues at the end of the shows.
