It's not a matter of finding an anime that defines greatness.. it's the fact that Eva just plain DOESN'T.

Or maybe it's the "fact" that pigs fly.
Ask me about my secret stash of videos that can't be found anywhere anymore.

Maybe it's the fact that all of this is just opinion. In my mind, Eva isn't that fantastic. It's a good action show. It's a good mecha show. It has philisophical elements slightly deepter than other shows out there. It has dysfunctional characters, which make them fairly realistic. It has a classic man vs. god theme. All in all it's a fairly solid anime... in theory. But in my mind, it was just not that entertaining. Great concept, poorly executed in many ways.
The fact that those stickers call it "the greatest" as if it were a fact just proves that people are mindless sheep. I bet any amount of money someone has bought that box set just because "the sticker said it was the best". It's a selling ploy, nothing more... and all the fanatical fans out there that blow eva way out of proportion and shit are just adding to that wonder ad campaign..

But hey.. support what you love. Keep overhyping Eva. :P It helps it sell, and makes what the sticker says seem true to the common consumer.

VoH is alot rarer than either of those, since it wasn't popular at all in japan... they were released on crappy quality VHS tapes years ago... I picked up the 1st tape 2+ years ago... and now I own the Fansub DVD box set with the fucked up names.. its worth checking out.. but you may not find it in this place your reffering to... it took me a while to find the whole collection it in manhattan.. and manhattan has almost everything.. just givin ya a heads up.. thats all..

Love Hina! It's hilarious, fun to watch and keeps you coming back for more (or in my case hoping for more). :D

I thought Berserk was pretty good too, until I got to the end... they just left me hanging... :x

But that's just my opinion...
