Why was Kensuke's 'congratulations' moment at

As someone who's soft spot for Kensuke far outshines his screentime, this also interests me.

I'm with you anon, Kensuke's probably one of my favourite Evangelion characters just because he's so fun.

It's been at least a decade since I've watched the scene in question, but in lieu of you deciding to up an audio webm of it, I'm guoing to guess what he said was めでたいな. Which in essence is just another way to say congratulations (and not a dialect thing). Or you can just look it up yourself. I typed it in moon for that reason.

Kensuke says めでたい, it's not a dialect thing it's just a word to describe a joyous occasion, basically a more informal way to say congratulations. I guess the dub should have said congrats or something.
Touji says おめでとうさん which is a dialect thing.

Thanks anon, though I wonder why, of all characters, they would choose to distinguish Kensuke with a personalised line.

I realized how based Kensuke was when he tells Shinji that the reason Misato is so laid-back around him is because she sees him as family. After that I payed more attention to the times he got screentime and yeah he's a really cool guy. The first time I watched the series I didn't even realize.

He was Shinji's friend, so he was more casual

First time I watched Eva I totally forgot about the Kensuke camping scene

>>146649747
That's also when Shinji comments something about his mother possibly worrying if he stays out camping I think, and then he says his mother is dead but he takes it easy. He's like the opposite of the people who always find reasons to feel sad/offended/insecure. Those come in dozens.

Isn't everyone in Shinji's class supposed to have a dead mom

>>146649922
Kensuke is a true bro who would never take advantage of a friends loneliness and sexual vulnerability.

>>146649970
I think so, but that's not something we are supposed to know at that point. That's way later when they designate Toji as pilot and we are told the Marduk institute never existed to begin with, and it's just Nerv pulling the strings from behind.

>Why was Kensuke's 'congratulations' moment at the end of episode 26 of Evangelion different from the rest?
Because it was a plot point that he tried to be different to stand out. Though since everyone in the show is pulling their own desperate bid for attention act, its hard to see him as being different.
