Misato has ice, snacks and 50 GALLONS OF BEER in her fridge lmao. Mood. Her car is wrecked and there’s a monster that might kill her and all she can think about is car payment loans lol. She’s just like me fr. Well, except for the groomer vibes she’s giving off.

I’m sure it’s gonna get depressing very soon, I hear all the characters suck and half of them are sexpests. Seems like you get a pretty decent understanding of why they suck though. I already dislike Shinji though, dude get in the fucking robot the world is ending. I guess sucking is hereditary, because his dad sucks too, fucking dumbass. Dude if your son is “the chosen one” when it comes to piloting these things and you’re all “I must sacrifice everything for the mission” then sacrifice some free time to be with your son so your top pilot is less psychologically messed up.

NERV is in dire need of a psych team though, insane that there isn’t a dedicated therapist to help the pilots deal with trauma.

Also it’s so beautiful! I miss old anime like this and Akira, everything just gets to breathe. It’s so pretty every frame is a painting. The women have noses and they look like women, which is also impressive. Sadly there’s still only one body type women can have, but at least they can look humanoid.

Anyway, bit idea: Guy who only watches Evangelion for the fights.

Edit: Okay so Shinji managed to make two friends and they get sent away. The dude needs a support network, how incompetent can his dad be? “Huh my best pilot is getting some friends? Can’t have that, we need him to be as mentally unstable as possible!”
Dude needs to be fired.

Double edit: Now on an episode where an EVA goes berserk and tries to attack the dad and he just stands there looking at it and then when it breaks thru to him he’s shocked. The guy is absolutely not beating “himbo, but not actually hot, just dumb” allegations

    Who? Gendo? Rei? Lol. Lmao.

    Dude, the stakes is that everyone will die if he doesn’t stop the angel in episode 1. I don’t know who loves, but they’re part of everyone.

    You see, the crushing weight of the task at hand is exactly why he is St. Shinji. To “fail” so purely in meeting tremendous unfair expectations set by what seems to be an uncaring universe.

    Yeah, I agree? It seems like you think I’m arguing it’s fair or good to expect these things of him or something. I’m not.

    You are currently not alienated enough from the socioeconomic order to relate to the sentiments, so you read it more literally and get frustrated. You don’t see the picture behind the bigger picture.

    Legit fuck you. Don’t make assumptions about me and don’t condescend me. Of the two of us you’re the only who at the moment is failing to read into text - you are arguing as if I dismiss the bigger picture, the themes or the motivations of the characters, despite the fact that I acknowledge them. This is what I am talking about with “misinterpretation” and “frustration”. You have made up your mind that I am arguing from a position which I have never claimed to inhabit, that I am dismissing arguments which I acknowledge, that I do not grasp very base-level stuff of the discussion. Despite getting these things responded, you decide to further entrench yourself in the position that I either do not understand or acknowledge these elements.
    This sucks. If you’re gonna be a troll, then troll someone else please.

    Nah that’s an understatement lol it’s so horrifically FUBAR that, as you mentioned, it’s funny.

    Yeah I wonder if I made it an understatement on purpose to keep the tone of this discussion light and funny.

      I don’t know who loves

      He has no-one else except maybe the sensei he mentions boarding with.

      Yeah, I agree?

      That’s why a lot of people, including me, think he’s based. We are legion.

      Legit fuck you.

      No thanks.

      you are arguing as if I dismiss the bigger picture, the themes or the motivations of the characters, despite the fact that I acknowledge them.

      Yeah you acknowledge them intellectually but clearly can’t fully relate so you dislike the character. That’s what I’m trying to say. I apologize if I wasn’t being sufficiently clear.

      Don’t escalate things further with that hostility of yours, please.
