>the end of the world could have been avoided if the shy boy had worked up the courage to ask his hot exotic roommate out
So the lesson of the show is that your life wouldn't have been such a fuck up if you tried talking to girls?
And that at some point there was probably someone who was interested in you but you unknowingly ignored them and broke their heart?

>>280578932 (OP)
Anything anno implies or says should be immediately disregarded.

>>280578932 (OP)
Bump because I want to see the gundams kiss

Asuka is sexy

>>280578932 (OP)
na,he should've worked up the courage to fucking behead that cretin cunt

>>280579444
Yeah

I don't need a girl, only the power to exterminate all my worthless enemies.

>>280578932 (OP)
the lesson is that your life wouldn't have been such a fuck up if you'd tried in general, even if it meant failing more too

them. They're both bringing years of mental baggage that neither is equipped to deal with that. If anything, EoE HAD to happen. It was a much needed therapy session.

*getting together
Basically the character had to be broken down so they could rebuild.

Why does reddit love Eva so much?

>>280581413
It's good

>>280578932 (OP)
If that's the case then the lesson should be that assertive women should initiate if the guy they're interested in is shy.

>>280578932 (OP)
If Asuka and Shinji had patched it up SEELE would've find two other fucked up kids. Honestly we were kinda irreversibly fucked after Fuyutsuki Kozo bailed out Rokubungi Gendou.

>>280581413
I don't know. Go ask them.

>>280578932 (OP)
Anons here always give the best comments, very impressive anon. No wonder Anno wanted to kill himself, he found the truth and was putting it out there for others without knowing it.

>>280578932 (OP)
You simply mustn't run away.

>>280578932 (OP)
You totally missed the point. It could have been avoided if Gendo stopped simping for Yui and became a good father.

Thought the illuminatis old fuckers are still dangerous as fucks so you have to go away and hide forever after ruining their plans.

>>280583775
decent post but getting caught up on genuine vs 'non-genuine' attraction is a common pitfall even though the series addresses it explicitly.

>>280583557
That's the thing, they couldn't have
Unit 01 (the most important unit, and the only one that can be used in Lilith's place to start instrumentality as a result of being made from her) only listens to Shinji and no one else, Yui made it that way as a safeguard against SEELE's plan

Don't see how two slightly more stable pilots would have stopped Asuka's mindrape, or the slaughter of most of NERV by the military or the MP eva's or SEELE as a whole. Hell Yui just plain doesn't activate until Asuka's been killed in the movie.

They were always doomed to a awful fate really, its why I can't get behind the big message, "you should make connections even if it hurts" blabla

I liked the gainax calendar epilogue. I have seen people re-ilustrate it in pixel artwork among other vers.

>>280585188
Asuka being unable to pilot and running away is dependent on her feeling useless and unwanted, which is precisely what leads to Kaworu being sent as her replacement and being able to exploit Shinji's complete isolation from everyone else to quickly get close to him
This then causes Shinji to get depressed after being forced to kill him and causes him to arrive at the eva cage too late to board it before it gets covered in bakelite

>your life wouldn't have been such a fuck up if you tried talking to girls?
yes, at that time men used to be cofused about everything related to women, now we know that women are whores..

>>280585814
And then Anno's idea of a gross gigaslut is Misato, a woman who slept with one man ever

>>280585885
He was salty and projected his anger at being rejected by a VA and directed that on Misato. You could even see pictures of Anno incomodating the woman that he was pestering, he got lucky cancel culture wasnt a thing yet.

Ironically I always found that there where other writters in the show that where better than him and where better at writting shinji and asuka's relationship.

>>280586781
>He was salty and projected his anger at being rejected by a VA
I've hears this about basically every single female character in the show

>>280585885
no, that's the fandom projecting stereotypes onto her and generally distorting the character through secondary telephone the same way that every eva character gets distorted. the only person that seriously looks down on misato for it is herself, and it's explicitly shown as being just part of her childhood baggage and not a reasonable view.

>>280585323

So the world really ended? No one came back from the goo? That's bleak as fuck

>>280589506
consider the following: the ocean is blue

>>280578932 (OP)
While i do think shinji is a wimp for not grabbing asuka by her hips and kissing and fucking her like the babe she is, i can empathise with him.
The kind of teenage doom and depression he is facing is no joke. It can absolutely override all reproductive urges you have and waste years of your life, making you a zombie

>>280589526
Fair enough but the buildings and infrastructure are fucked, can't see humanity recovering from that soon

>>280589575
Shinji walked so that K could fly.

>>280579660
I tried, it never went anywhere even as I slowly was more direct, until after I'd already given up for a few weeks and we hadn't talked she just blocked me across the board out of the blue.
My life is still a fuck up, but at least I learned I really shouldn't have bothered trying.

>>280589639
Damn, Anno really did foreshadow it all these years ago.

>>280589639
She doesn't look happy with this arrangement

Anno didn't work on that "game" Anno so he couldn't anything. It's kind of a known fact don't know how you didn't know that.

Here's something I know you didn't know. Did you know one of the Birds this Pokémon is based off is the "Kiwi" that lives in New Zealand. They also have "Farms" for them tier too. I wonder if Pokémon also does because and if they "Won" alot of respect from people for doing that

Anno didn't work on that "game", anons so he couldn't "foreshadow" anything. It's kind of a known fact and I don't know how you didn't know that?

Here's something I know you didn't know though. Did you know one of the Birds this Pokémon is based off is the "Kiwi" that lives in New Zealand. They also have "Farms" for them there too. I wonder if Pokémon also does because if they did I'm sure they "Won" alot of respect from people for keeping it based around the real world.

Had to fix this post up
