The lore of Eureka 7 is actually relatively simple, and it is *fully explained within the original series* itself. Basically, Earth was taken over by an alien megafauna coral-type assimilationist organism called the scub-coral, this causes humans to leave the planet and wander in space for 10,000 years. Meanwhile, the megafauna becomes sentient and realizes it is completely alone on the planet with no one to communicate with and enters a dormant state. Eventually, humans return to "Earth" but the elites hide from common people the fact that they have returned to their original home planet, so they believe they have landed on an alien planet, whereas in reality, it's just Earth, but with an extra layer of coralian formation on top of the surface (The original Earth's surface still exists underground). So eventually, the scub-coral figures out that humans have returned and takes a more careful approach towards making contact through the girls like Eureka while Holland's brother finds out the secret history and attempts to destroy the planet because he thinks it is emasculating to coexist with the scub-coral, given that it originally caused humans to exile themselves off their own planet

The original anime was easy to understand. I don't know why there's a EVA comparison. Now the sequel and that one AU film, yes. I remember scratching my head right after watching that one AU film. The sequel series got complex in the end with it's in-universe retconning, and rewriting it's happy ending by dumping your kids to other universes due how your home universe has a poison atmosphere to your hybrid kid.

Except for that Anemone is an engineered Human-Corallian Hybrid for the purpose of tagging the main "brain" of the Corallian" to be killed. Otherwise the story is rather straight forward. It's mostly a story about redemption by the main members of Gekkostate (Why Taiho, Holland and Eureka defected from the military), self exploration (Renton's growth through multiple crisis, his inherent childish approach to love for Eureka), the case study of human's hubris (How they tried to claim the planet is new, how they act like they had shit under control when it's more of the Corallian subsiding towards humans in turn for observation etc). It is easy to get dragged in the grandiose of how they present the story in the anime, but it's not trying to be overly edgy (If you want edgy go watch Xam'd no bouen, that shits wild).

Spoiler alert❗: I watched the whole Eureka Seven AO and I hated it. The plot basically goes like this: AO is the son of Eureka and Renton. I don't quite remember, but he gets recruited by some organization to drive a Nirvash because he is the son of Eureka, so he is the only one that can drive it. Eureka disappeared when he was a child and accepts in order to look for his mom. This brat hates Renton because he believes he abandoned Eureka. As the series progresses, we learn that Eureka previously had a still-born child because, since the baby was a hybrid between human and alien, somehow the air killed the baby girl. For that reason, when she got pregnant with AO, Renton and Eureka decided to time travel to the past when the air was not as filled with the substance that makes the machines fly in the air, so that the baby can survive. They get separated, and that is why he was not with Eureka when she had AO, and Renton spent the whole season looking for Eureka in different timelines until he finds AO. What I hate the most about this season is that they made Renton a terrible father. When he finds AO, instead of acting like a confused, but loving father, that somehow finds his son all grow up (more like his character) he absolutely does not care about him. He only cares about finding Eureka and totally ignores his own son. It was almost like he despises AO. Renton even hits AO with a soccer ball in the face (accidentally) and does not even apologize! WTF!? Another aspect is that we never see any of the previous crew member, never and it is disappointing. The ending is even more terrible. AO basically ends up sacrifing himself so that his mother can reunite with Renton and, for some reason I cannot recall, he ends up time travelling infinitely without been able to be reunited with his family ever and probably dies inside the Nirvash, I don't know. In summary, a boring and despicable sequel.

Man, the Eva rebuild movies are so misunderstood. You have to look at the show, EoE, and the Rebuilds as one big meta project. See, the show said it's piece and ended on a pretty positive note with Shinji learning the core messages of the series - you can't close yourself off and you can't run away from your problems. But a lot of people didn't get that - so in comes EoE. Anno is pretty mad at this point. He restates the message, making it even more on the nose. As a sort of retaliation and mirror of the audience, Anno has Shinji learn his lesson much later, consequently making the ending much darker. However, many people still didn't get it. Seething, Anno cooked up a final solution. With the Rebuild films, he first gave Eva fanatics everything they wanted - all the waifu-bait, all the callbacks, everything -, only to rip it all away and cast them into a spiteful unknown that culminates in the literal erasure of Eva's as a concept. It's extremely telling that the last scene of the Rebuilds is salary man Shinji and his girlfriend/wife (who I'm pretty sure was inspired by Anno's own wife - which would make sense since Shinji is a projection of his younger self). I mean, the last shot is literally an aerial view of a real place - it's screaming "go live in the real world now". Unironically spiteful genius.

Then at some point they decided that was too boring, so now it's all "this robot we had you pilot was ACTUALLY the remnant of the Alien Precursor Civilization from the Nth Age, built to traverse the Photonic Barrier into the Psychic Dimension and push human evolution towards becoming Living Gods!" Meanwhile I'm sitting here like "I just want to watch the cool robot hit the evil robot with the Big Sword!"

Regardless of how the series has turned out to be, it will always be one of my favorite anime's of all time.

Plot lines for militaristic non super robot mecha anime usually are all about war politics and thats why it gets messy and hard to follow

Holy shit this video warmed my heart. I was 15 in 2005 and stayed up to catch this on adultswim, one of my best friends was in a college band called Gekkostate, lol. Everyone will tell you to pretend the second season never happened. My only gripe is that we never got to see Holland and Talho's kid at the end. The third ED song of the series is goated. You got incredible taste.

I never watched Eureka, outside of like 1 episode that I sort of remember on AS as a kid which is why I clicked. But from what you are saying, it sounds like this series is/was doing exactly what Code Geass is doing right now with Roze of the Recapture. Bland rehashing for more money.

I mean, calling it ur reek ah 7 is correct. Unfortunately Japan cant say words and the dub was told to follow that shit. Dont worry, there totally isnt a episode at the dead end of the show where Eureka tells the story of rentons dad finding her and based on his discovery he named her...thatd be dumb. Because it would reveal that theyve been saying the shows name wrong or something since it indirectly implies his dad had a "eureka moment" and named her accordingly. Thatd be silly, straight goofy. This is why you should wait for a show to finish before dubbing it.

Honestly I think it’s the fault of Bones localization team. Generally there is communication back and forth during translation and localization, and the NA team probably asked a couple times “How should they pronounce “Eureka”?” and likely got the JP team going “Uh… like Eureka?” I think it was a miscommunication, which would make sense because some of the English VAs do pronounce Eureka the English way- like Matthew’s VA.

@@Worsteverything if I remember correctly the dub was handled by Bandai. If so. That explains everything. I swear I've seen multiple dubs with the Bandai label that had me like "this is a tad....faithfully sounding". Either way that dub was most likely a fucking train wreck because the first handful of episodes, JYB's Renton is terrible sounding because they demanded he go higher in pitch despite him pointing out how bad it was. Thankfully that dub was done in the dvd Era so reviews for the early dvds repeated his exact points (of him sounding whiny) and suddenly the team changed their minds 🙄 .

Eureka Seven is my favorite anime of all time, full stop. Bro you cooked so insanely hard with this video. Had me furiously nodding and shit at like every point. Though I will say, as a show detached from the original, I actually enjoyed AO for what it was. I also enjoyed Hi-Evolution 3, but I do still agree with you. As Eureka Seven installments they fail. But genuinely I have never seen someone mirror all the shit I tell my friends about this show even though I just be yappin at them because I'm the only one who really cares about this IP and I never have anyone who's really been a fan of the series let alone shared my specific opinions on most of the core elements. Jesus Christ bro you have no idea how much I needed this video. Also, SHOUNEN HEART MY BELOVED HOLY SHIT WHAT A BANGER I FUCKING LOVE THAT OPENING MY GOD HOMEMADE KAZOKU WAS GASSED UP WHEN THEY COOKED THAT

I seen the original and it's sequel as well as that one AU movie but I never heard this trilogy till today. Gosh, this franchise went downhill after the original series. EVA Rebuild series felt like a better conclusion of the series since the original anime gave us that weird ending with no budget while the movie had Shinji's emoness blows up all life on Earth. E7 on the otherhand ended perfectly and didn't need to be reworked.

I adore this series and its so cool to find how many others were into it! One of my favorite parts of Eureka seven was the curly hair representation, as goofy as that sounds. I know it was mostly "wavy" then turned just messy as the show went on, but it affected me as an artist at a young age. I always struggled to draw curls and waves in hair and seeing how Eureka Seven's artists handled it helped a lot!

They either make a little kids or teenage kids pretty much act like adults, they’re either killing monsters, go inside of a giant Mech, fight war for another country, or have the maturity of an adult. Or see a little girl with a giant sword kill dragon, or destroy robots with a machine gun . and I know they’re just doing it for kids fantasy, but I do it way too often. Don’t you get me started on the dead parents or absent parents?

After watching over 700-800 shows, this anime is still in my top 5 and I'm not even a mecha fan in particular. I loved everything about this show, amazing characters, amazing music, great story and pacing, amazing animation and the perfect ending. It was the whole package, and yet I've seen soooooooo few people talk about this show over the years. Maybe the botched follow-up series (which I've never bothered to watch) just did an irreparable damage to it, but the original was and is an amazing show.
