I think one of the reasons he was male was just to exemplify how desperate Shinji was for genuine affection - he pretty much fell in love with a man just because he was nice to him. That says quite a lot about Shinji's character.
>>136038570
Shinji fell in love with him because Kaworu was like a father figure to him.
>>136038570
He started blushing at Kaworu before he even started being nice to him though.
He just thought he was hot, even though he's a guy.
>>136038414
>>136038615
But Shinji fell with him before he was nice to him and Kaworu doesn't even look like Gendo or did he treat Shinji like a son.
>>136038615
He's a deadbeat mother of 15 including himself.
>>136038570
>>136038615
Does bisexuality not exist to you? You guys are retarded. Like >>136038663 says, he was blushing at the very SIGHT of him. This is actually more than he ever did for the girls, in which case he only blushed when they were naked or getting him embarrassed. On top of that, Anno says Kaworu is male because he's Shinji's ideal self. Thus, if he were female, Shinji would have needed to be female too. That's the official statement on the matter. He wasn't male simply to show he was desperate, stop that shit.
>>136039829
why is shinji's ideal self a gay alien
>>136039932
A gay alien sperg questioning why anyone wouldn't want to die. Shinji was breaking down.
>>136038615
the only reason Shinji fell in love with him is because he wanted some pretty boy to ravage his boipussy
>>136039829
of course it doesn't, those are just shinjis, attention and or sex starved people who want it however they can get it.
>>136038414
Here you go OP.
Every single one of them should have been girls, they make everything better.
>>136038767
Girl Kaworu would have ojou-style long hair
>>136038414
Me.
>>136038615
>>136039829
>>136038570
>thinking that everything is about love
This is why Anno hates life
That and his favorite animu being cancelled
That's just haremshit. Gay dude made it more interesting.
>>136042634
Anno hates life because Ikuhara won't be the Kaworu to his Shinji.
>>136041598
WaitWHAT
>>136041598
the hitting his balls gag wouldn't have worked if he was a chick
>>136042778
Fuckin' serious right now?
>>136042825
It's what made him a girl
I don't agree myself, but since other anons expressed this sentiment in another thread, I'll post it for them.
>>136042326
Shinji is already a girl
>>136043280
You wish.
>>136043625
Shinji is a girl.
>>136038414
He'd make an amazing dandere
>>136043625
He technically is in rebuild anyway.
She might've been more likeable as a idiot tomboy instead of the generic annoying shounen hero he was.
>>136038570
>tfw this description matches you.
I wonder how much the medium would change if Ryo Asuka was a girl
>>136043625
I would suck Ray's dick, desu.
>>136044771
Rei can be a male's name.
Asuka would be the typical abuser from these really shitty shoujo manga.
This tee-bee-aych fampai.
>>136044625
Have you not read Devil lady?
>>136038414
Except BL is the best, nerdlord.
Left or Right, /a/?
>>136048383BOTH
>>136048554
This.
>>136048383
right is a slut
left is a pure maiden
>we could've gotten tits in the naked scenes
>ending is no longer gayshit
>>136046547
Which one?
>>136051612
So basically we could've gotten a toku rehash of Chobits.
>>136038414
>>136038570
>>136038615
>>136038663
It was also set up earlier that Shinji doesn't see homosexuality as a normal option for him.
By the time he reaches Kaworu, he's learned that love knows no gender.
>>136045096
>dick grab and squeeze
Fund it.
>>136053460
the classic homophobic homo
>>136044251
FUCK YOU
>>136051991
>>136053460
Based Kaji was urging Shinji to win the Kaworubowl from the beginning.
>>136054722
That's a pretty accurate description for Manga Shinji.
