user, your frame of reference for references is way out of date.

Animators reference shit from their own childhoods. That's why we're getting DBZ/Eva references *now*
Easton Russell
Like a Saturday-morning cartoon by boomer is going to parody an anime where a depressed teenager's cloned mother fuses with a space demon and turns the whole world into Sunny D.

Evangelion was only a cult classic in the 90s, it wasnt until the internet hit the mainstream that western audiences realized how popular eva was
Eli Evans
Fucking waste too. Imagine how kino a Dexter Eva parody would be. Craig Mccracken style biblically accurate angels.
[spoilers]Im sorry lads, I know even saying the words invites "biblically accurate angels" retard to the board.[/spoilers]
Julian Watson
Shit nigger, we were getting DBZ references more than 10 years ago.

Who actually had watched eva in the west in 1996?
James Watson
But it was specifically parodying Speed Racer. Are you seriously complaining that it didn't parody something it wasn't supposed to be a parody of? There's no rule that parodies can only be about media that is popular at that moment in time.
This is why I hate the fucking internet. This isn't even worth a thread you fucking drooling retard.
Jayden Edwards
What's wrong with speed racer u dum lil shit
Ayden Bell
Robin Williams. They made a reference to it in that movie where he's a store clerk.
Nathan Ortiz
Just let it be. Proper nostalgia ended with the 90s
Elijah Butler
I hate normalfags like OP
Jonathan Sullivan
teenage ironic weebs think they are sophisticated because they watched eva + serial experiments lain
Isaac Rodriguez
That was in 2002. Eva aired in 1995.
Brandon Martin
That episode aired concurrently with Speed Racer. It wasn't appealing to nostalgia, it was poking fun at a show that was currently airing on the same network.
Christian Price
HE'S GOING OVER THAT CLIFF
Cooper Garcia
Were people bitching about Dexter referencing Speed Racer back then like how modern cartoons reference DBZ and Eva now?
Brandon Roberts
Goku is pretty much the most famous character in anime unless you count Pikachu, and they're still fucking making more of his show, so I don't mind as much if they default to that for a parody, though it is lazy
Ayden Martin
thats a myth, it was just a random toy they picked up at a store and decided to use as a prop
Ian Clark
Well, hum...
Still, the first otakus were nerds who bought imported media from obscure-ass catalogs, and a surprising number of celebrities of the time did that-
Well, hum again...

I destroyed you the first time you posted this insufferable thread pointing out that you’re a worthless zoomer that doesn’t even know speed racer was on Cartoon Network at the time of this episode.
