Please do not sexualize the matron soul.

>>145511066
That's because Shinji doesn't have a girl that's as good as Emilia to give him hope.

>>145511066
Subaru would instantaneously change to an infallible prodigy ten minutes later, shinji is a far better character than subaru exactly because of his lack of vitality. That's the point of this archetype

And that's why he's a bad character. I realize this is a bait thread but comparing Eva to fotm akame ga sword art should be an offense.

>>145526510
just drop it you adhd /v/tard

>>145511066
He gets better, Amuro got PTSD pretty early on too, but give him and episode or two and he becomes a death blender. I really don't like how being desensitizing works in shows like these, they're the marker for a huge piloting skill jump. Around that time I think Shinji starts showing up Asuka as well.

NGE is a bit of a mess until like episode 5.

The video was made by Anno's Studio; in the same way as the Eva-Rebuilds visual breakdown segments.

Incidentally all used the same music; the beat allows for rapid transitions.

Shinji being a good character is a meme shilled by people with fairly little analytical skill or who allow themselves to be fooled into thinking depthless characters and stories have depth simply because the author/director meant them to.

>>145532529
Except that Shinji is actually an interesting and deep character.

>>145532529
Yep. Eva is pretentious garbage.

>>145532529
Isn't he more of a fish out of water character than anything? (he's a tool for the audience as to reveal the world)

He still has character tho.

>>145532529
Go back to watching excell saga.

>>145532529
Yeah, Because you are so analytical

>>145532529
This is what the typical underage looks like.

>>145532696
No, Shinji is the central figure of NGE. He's by far the most important element and the story for the most part revolves around him.

>>145532928
>Shinji is the central figure of NGE.
True,
But he still a "fish out of water character" nonetheless.
He introduces us to the world not knowing anything; we learn about the world at the same time as he does.

>>145533096
Yes, but that's just a secondary feature of his character.

>>145533021
Should of been in 2.0 instead of the falling angle.

>>145533175
Definitely, no argument there.

>>145527242
Are we talking about NGE Shinji or Rebuild Shinji cause Rebuild Shinji is a straight up retard

>>145533265
What is your argument supposed to be? That because the viewers become familiar with the situation/setting along with shinji that makes him a bad character?

>>145529639
>On a completely different note, why does Godzilla have Eva music?

Same composer, Anno would never leave his compuser husbando behind you know that.

>>145533416
In Rebuild 1&2 he was pretty OK. In 3 he just broke.

>>145533021

>>145515292

when shinji faces a frightening situation, what he does? he runs away. subaru keeps returning and doing the same shit as if the trauma was nothing.

Not really, since there wasn't anywhere else in the world that he'd ever been at home before. A normal person would have been at least a little rattled by nearly being killed by a giant monster and a diet nuke in the first five minutes.

>>145533021

> Shinji - Well you said to grab them first so I'm going to ignore you now and grab them anyway

>>145533812
When did that happen? I don't remember that scene ever happening in the franchise.

>>145533416
Rebuild Shinji suffers from not knowing a thing and nobody telling him anything.

>>145533812

Please remid me why did Asuka even had a mental break down?

>>145533989
Such a great design, such obnoxious voice acting. What a waste.

>>145533989
Angel mind rape.

>>145533988
That would make sense were it not for the fact that the person he's ignoring is the person who gave him the idea in the first place.

>>145533989
angel mind rape and probably the most fucked up childhood of the 3

>>145533989
Her mother lost her mind and soul and then, in happiest day of Asuka shitty life, she hanged herself. So, when Asuka run into room all that happy, he met body of her dead mother. And yeah, angel mind rape.

>>145533812
At that time, Shinji didn't see Kaworu as a Friend but as an excuse.

>>145533801
yes, and that's the point. subaru see people he likes dying in the most horrible ways possible, but seconds later he is already doing it again.

realistic my ass

>>145534092
They probably should have foreshadowed that then instead if having Shinji showing nothing but complete and unconditional affection and trust in Kaworu until the moment they need him to fuck everything up.

>>145534237
Okay ESL-kun.

>>145534247
What is 3.33? You're being weird, anon.

>>145533484
It doesn't make him a bad character, it just that he has goodcharacterization, the focus of the story, and a fish out of water character.

A "fish out of water character" is not an insult, hell Luke Skywalker is considered a "fish out of water character" and nobody argues about his importance in Star Wars.

>>145534328
He did that because Rei Q was so alien for him.
But at the end, He was born to XXX Adam/Lilith

>>145534634
So what, your argument is that Shinji became a godlike celestial being and that's what made him grab the spears against Kaworu's wishes?

Well, He was synchronizated

>>145534973
Not that I really expect a tripfag to not be completely retarded, but you could at least try to make a bit of sense.

>>145534092
>>145534328
The whole issue was Shinji trusting Kaworu, Basically Shinji had to trust Kaworu for the situation and ultimately chose to not listening to him. (betrayed that trust)

Hell, the music that was playing in the film was Called "TRUST"
https://youtu.be/bXAf0HqZIB0
Lyrics:
Learn to trust, if you must, learn to love then learn to trust
turn your back, close your eyes, open minds will learn to trust

and be trusted so the guardian of all that is secure and precious is you

>>145534328
He was doing it in part for Kaworu. It's just that Kaworu doesn't do anything during the mission except zone out and mumble into his hand while he strains to count two spears and then curl into a ball and groan, so Shinji thinks he's carrying an incompetent coward with cold feet.

>>145535161
My question is why Shinji would suddenly decide to ignore Kaworu when he's shown nothing but trust in him previously.

>>145535234
Did you forget why Seele wanted the spear(s)?
They spear makes Angels go full retard. They originally planned to use it with Kaworu but Gendo didn't allow it.
The spear pierces through the AT Field (ego) so easily

>>145535252
He decided at exactly the wrong time that he would have the balls to do what Shinji wants and not listen to what anyone else told him.

>>145535252
They weren't best fríends

Because he was desperate.
He doesn't want to be hated by people.

He is desperate for forgiveness.

I'm comvinced 3/+1 will be titled something akin to "You Can (NOT) forgive"

>>145535370
Shinji would not know that. It isn't even established to the audience that the spear in any continuity has worked by radiation instead of contact with the point. According to anything Shinji himself ever saw Kaworu do in an Eva, he looks like he doesn't know what to do and struggles with motion sickness.

>>145533416
There was plenty of stupidity to go around in that movie. The failing weren't all his own.

Her mother went insane, neglected her and eventually killed herself, leaving Asuka with a need to prove her maturity as an adult and requiring constant validation. Piloting Eva was her only purpose in life and out of desperation she pushed herself too hard and got mind fucked by an angel. Unable to pilot Eva, she lost purpose.

It's easier to write and nowhere near as much of a headache if they're at least somewhat Japanese. Then all their Japanese-isms can be explained away by "Oh, they're Japanese". Lesso with series with fully foreign casts that have them acting incredibly Japanese anyway.

41.3% of a broken arm and hole drilled clean through the brainpan, no representation of what was happening to him during the berserk, then he saw the Eva's real face and it saw him right back. He came back to work after that, he fought another angel before he left to spend a few days homeless.

This. Between him and Misato they have about as much understanding as the audience is supposed to, if they were paying attention. In EOE he even says that he doesn't deserve to pilot the Eva because he doesn't understand what's going on, all he knows is that he has been manipulated and lied to from the beginning and no matter whether he believes in the mission or not he can't escape.

I don't remember either, it's a minor flaw with Eva that you usually only get an idea of the passage of time from a passing comment. I didn't even realise until rewatching recently that when shinji gets dissolved inside his entry plug he stays in there for over a month.

She doesn't want to open up to people. (use the same water as the others did)
.
This scene:
I feel sick...AKA...Kimochi Warui

Is referenced again at the end of the show, after Asuka underwent the greatest example of "opening up to people" ever in film.

Bathroom,
She says "kimochi warui"
then she reveals how she feels.

End of EOE.
Her feelings are revealed.

you poor innocent shit

how

>>145511066
He's not broken, he's bored and anxious

>>145533201

Did you even watch Godzilla?

Still lurking.

Then they should of removed either Mari's or Asuka's Angle battle or both.

>>145551002
finish the series.

>>145551123
>>145551220
Both battles are kinda pointless to the story of the film, they can be removed entirely without affecting the overall story. Just have Asuka arrive to japan same same scene of eva 2 unloading. The previous battle revealed nothing about her character; just that she's a skilled pilot.(which could of been elaborated later)

So Asuka raped Hikari?

>>145552596
No just showed how sad Asuka was with Hikari not caring.

>>145552914
Are you blind? That picture clearly shows Hikari giving Asuka the ok on raping her.

I'm going to marry Asuka-chan!

>>145553254
I'll see you in that great Asukabowl in the sky.

>>145554381
No, because I'm her only suitor.

>>145554497
That's a good joke, loser, because you know I've been replying to you effectively every time you post this.

>>145554590
Asuka wouldn't date an ugly, friendless, desperate faggot like you and you know it.

>>145511066
is this good or is it just a meme, or has the memes deluded people into thinking its good

>>145554590
No you haven't, there's been plenty of times you haven't responded. Faggot.

I may be friendless, but that's by pure choice. Ugly and desperate don't apply, but be my guest; continue your projections.

>>145554497 is not me.

>>145554814
You have a point, though it seems like I'm ever the only one who responds.

OP is the type of people who shitposts but actually means it. How dumb can you fucking be?
Shinji is risking his fucking life and he's scared as fuck.
At least Subaru knows that if he dies, he'll come back alive and he knows that where he's living in isn't real. Remember that he's in an alternate universe, away from his real home you fucking dumb shit. Kill yourself and know that all your opinions are probably and most likely shit.
