>>149059731
Nah... don't be unfair. It's a fine anime.

It's only the creator I don't like.... I like Shinji, Rei and Asuka... hell even Gendo... but Hideaki Anno? I don't know. He looks and behaves like a fucking creep. I mean cmon, nobody is that autistic right? What a fucking weirdo.

>>149060375
I understand your feels. You know how old I was when I watched NGE? 14. Same age as the protagonists. This didn't really help. But I can see how it can be traumatizing.

Can you explain a little more? Why did it traumatize you so much?

>>149060354
Came here to post this

>>149060950
He did; the waifus.

>>149060375
What? NGE is the most uplifting shit ever. The meaning is LITERALLY "Fuck Depression, get off the couch and live your life".
How is that depressing?

>>149061043
I see. Not the mind rape or existential debates, not the alien creatures or cruel deaths... the pretty girls traumatized him.

But seriously... how is this even possible? Should such a show not only air at 10 or 11pm? How can a 6year old even watch this shit?

Wtf man. Other kids watch barney or the telletubbies and he watches the most disturbing anime in existence with 6.

>>149061185
>the most disturbing anime in existence
I wouldn't go that far, but yes, NGE was made for an older audience. Some of the fights are pretty gruesome and the tone of the show is relatively dark.

Back in my day, the only anime on TV was Dragonball Z, Sailor Moon, Pokemon, Digimon, Flint the time detective, and speed racer. Something like NGE was completely unheard of on American television.

>>149061311
It aired on a special "uncensored" Toonami block at midnight. This was before Adult Swim was a thing I think.

>>149061311
It is dark. But the sickest thing is that it doesn't even look that way. It doesn't even look more dark than Digimon if you only watch Episode 1. With the cute penguin and cute girls.... who will later be violated mentally by a fucking alien. It has multiple layers of darkness and it depends on the viewer to see how dark it really is. It literally has something for everyone. Person A might be disgusted how SEELE is using their total power in order to destroy humanity. Person B think Gendo is disgusting, because of the way he treats Shinji. Person C thinks Misato is disgusting because she is manipulating Shinji. Another guy hates Shinji. Another is shocked by the bisexual themes. It has something for everyone.

How old were you when you watched Evangelion?

>>149061431

But that´s what it makes so fucking great. I absolutely love fucked up characters.
The show has mentally unstable waifus, lots of grey morality, awesome fightscenes, chuuni shit, meta/deconstruction shit, freudian shit aaaaaand finally more-than-one-dimensional characters.

What´s not to like?

>>149061554
I only hope that Rebuild nr 4 is as equally fucked up as End of Evangelion. No it should be even more fucked up. I fucking love EOE.

This is low effort bait

This is not normal. But on EVA it is.

But yes, I hope so, too. Would be awesome. I also hope we get more "slap the fanbase into the face" shit like pic related.

I-I am sorry, mommy, I dissapointed you ;__;

The 2D is mostly stuff like pic related. So lewd...

Is Eva the true litmus test for any anon of mature taste? You go from thinking it's the deepest shit ever as a teenager, to joking about as a young adult because you wanna fit in, to finally becoming mature and realizing that it IS actually a great show with meaning.

>>149062231
Yep, that could be accurate. Although I watched it only recently for the first time, since Anime isn´t big here in Germany.

But it really is fucking awesome.

>>149062231
>to joking about as a young adult because you wanna fit in
Are you fucking retarded?

>>149061165
Did we watch the same show?

>>149060950
Sorry I've been busy
At the time when I first became interested in cartoons, I watched lots of Miyazaki (fav is Princess Mononoke)
I was a bit depressed child, often bullied in my private school and all that. Eva at first seemed like a usual cool cartoon to me. You understand that it was absolutely brutal for me to see realities of human relationship at such a young age. I wasn't able to see people like a young child anymore. I was around 10 yrs old when it first got me. The themes, mindfucks, all of it. Plus the brutality of scenes impressed me, deaths of characters I liked traumatized me. When I grew older and became interested in girls I didn't see in any of them what I wanted to see. I don't know what it was but I just felt it that way. I was talking to people, hanged out with them, I had relationships with those girls, but when I was alone I started to feel so deeply sad and I often cried at night. All because of the show, its scenes, its characters, the realities of the World. I tried and try to this day to be strong, I follow my supposed dreams (I have no actual dreams, I feel dead inside, I only live for my family), I'm kinda successful. But the crying, the sadness, self-insertion, it's all still in my head. plus I'm deeply disgusted by humanity and fake people, all of it. And add to this the waifus. That's how this shit affected me. Still, it's the best show I've ever seen, my favorite.

>>149061431
>How old were you when you watched Evangelion?
I remember already having watched it by 2010 so at least 20 years old. The show seemed to have potential but I felt like it never lived up to it. The last few episodes were especially disappointing at the time.

>Hey, this nice officer woman is cool. Oh, but at home she´s a borderline alcoholic and a total slob. Oh, and she´s also a nymphomaniac, whose mission kinda implies grooming the MC. But it´s all because she´s traumatized and fights her fear of rejection and failure with shallow hedonism.
>Hey, this tsundere chick is cute. Oh wait, she has an actual borderline PD. Oh, and she also has a fucked up sexuality. But it´s cool, she makes up for it with her violent streaks, perfectionism and complete inability to from proper relationships.
>Rei is kinda obvious.
>Oh, who´s this guy? The MC´s father? What a dick! But wait, it´s because he lost his wife. But he´s also a women manipulating dick who betrays his superiors many times. And he clones his wife and may or may not have sex with the clones. But secretly he loves his son, who he treats like shit, but he is not brave enough to show it. And he does "all this" to get his dear wife back. "All this" means unleashing the apocalypse, btw.

And, at last:
>The MC. A wreck of depression and anxiety. But wait, he chats casually with his peers and has no problems getting along with people on a superficial basis. And he can be really professional and effective in his work, which is killing angels. Ah, but he is also unable to form real relationships and let people come close to him. Oh wait, and he´s also just good in his work because he wants attention and praise from people, unlike Rei, for example. But it´s alright, in the end he toughens up and finishes the job, because that´s what heroes do, right? Oh wait, no he doesn´t and has to be pulled and manipulated to finally get in his fucking mother/robot. And then, being liquified and confronted with his true self, he throws a hissyfit, because he can´t handle the truth. And only when getting his entire self bashed in by Lilith/Rei/whatever, he looks into a fucking mirror and sees the horrible, horrible wreck of lies, deception, depression, angst, self-loathing and utter patheticness that he truly is.

Now tell me, is >>149067041 and this really one-dimensional for you? Fucking really?
I´m not saying EVA is flawless, far from that, but atleast give Anno some credit, the man really poured his entire soul into this. And I think the result is more than just watchable slice-of-life mecha shit.

What's wrong with it?

>>149067513
Nothing. It just adds to her complex personality and lets her appear like having a borderline PD.
Look it up, Asuka shows the exact symptoms of it, I´m not shitting you.

>>149067041
>>149067153
Beautifully put

>>149067642
No, I mean what's wrong with her sexuality?

>>149067756
>constantly flirts with older men
>is very asserting (the bed/"Mama" and the kissu scene)
>can´t relate to her role as a woman
>constantly swaps between little innocent girl (infront of Kaji) to lewd and asserting nympho (infront of Shinji)
>simultaneously pulls and pushes Shinji away
She´s a fucking borderliner, that is what´s wrong. This behaviour may seem normal or "tsundere" in anime, but IRL that´s fucked up.

>>149067711
Thanks, but in your opinion, what is the most complex anime in the whole show? How do the personalities differ in the other versions like 3.0?

While Eva's message is positive, its way of getting it across is done in a very bleak and in your face manner, which is only intensified if you're able to relate to any of the issues of the characters. If you're unprepared for it then it's very much a cathartic gut-punch.

You're the type of nigga that thinks pizza is a shit food... sitting over there in the corner... eating Mac n' Cheese like it's filet mignon.

I know. I was unprepared, and it was a cathartic gut-punch. That´s what made the experience so great. I´ve felt nothing like that with DBZ or OnePiece or even SnK (Yes, I´m new to Anime, stfu).

Watching NGE and EoE was like getting stabbed in the stomach with a sharp blade. But sometimes only the sharpest knives can cut the tumors out, you know what I´m saying?

>>149062500
Yeah fuck bullying. Fuck that shit.

It traumatized me too. I could literally watch every horror and gore movie as a kid, I was afraid of nothing. But bullying is on another different level. It's just so cruel and unbelievable. I couldn't wrap my mind how kids could do that to other kids.

You see I had no siblings, so I thought that kids are supposed to stick together against the adults. Like natives who want to overthrow a government.

I was absolutely devastated to discover that even kids hate each other.

Yes, I´m fairly new to Anime. Not to 4chan, though, since I am quite a bit longer here than the obligatory two years.
And besides, what´s wrong with starting to like Anime? Is this not what you guys want? For people to involve themselves with your hobby, like, not watching Naruto/Bleach/FMA and all that stuff, but really work themselves in? I´ve just started with Akira and LoGH, I´m not going to post on FB about how cool Naruto is.
Chill, we all were new once, and you can´t deny that EVA is really well made and touching.
