another guy made a mashup a while back that also used "The Ultimate Soldier =3EM05=". i didn't hear it till i had already made the audio for this, considered changing mine but decided against it, hope that's cool.
here's that guy's vid:
   • You can (not) kill the metal.

FAQ /'fɑ.kjuː/

"why is the youtube title different from the title card"
clickbait

"what eva song is this"
look at the sources doc i linked above. there's more than just one song.

"can i get a download link"
https://github.com/ytdlp/ytdlp

"how long did this take"
almost 3.0+1.0 years, but very offandon

"do you have a discord"
no, im old so discord scares me. i don't even post on the ones im part of.
boomers like me prefer email or anonymous zoetrope forums. maybe bluesky.

"do you have a patreon"
i wish i could say no, but some friends and i will be pivoting to the parasocial slop space with a dumb lil internet show. cynical as we are, it's been fun to create. you'll (probably) like it.
the point is, the show will have a patreon. details soon.

"i don't like the mix"
you guys are being too kind and reasonable. please make your criticisms more unhinged so i don't have to consider them so seriously, thx

"aren't you cutting into your potential comments by preanswering them in this strawmanpilled 'FAQ' thereby reducing your in the eyes of the algorithm which would lead it to direct fewer viewers to this video that you spent so much of your precious lifeforce to create?"
fuck

"shoulda called it Tenacious Dvangelion"
no

im never making anything this high effort again
