We have lost a hero to our glorious cause, but does this foreshadow our defeat? No. It is a new beginning. Compared to Earth Federation the national resources of Zeon are less than one thirtieth of theirs. Despite this how is it that we have been able to fight the fight for so long? It is because our goal in this war is a righteous one. It’s been over fifty years since the elite of Earth, consumed by greed took control of the Earth Federation. We want our freedom. Never forget the times when the Federation has trampled us! We, the Principality of Zeon, have had a hard struggle to achieve freedom for all citizens of our great nation. My beloved brother, Garma Zabi, was sacrificed. Why? The war is at a stalemate. Perhaps many of you have become complacent. Such a lack of compassion is— The Earth Federation has polluted our planet for their own greed. We must send them a message, but not composed of words. We have wasted too much time with words. We need action now. The earthside elite must be taught a strong lesson for their corruption. This is only the beginning of our war. We have been putting more and more money into our efforts towards making our military stronger. The Earth Federation has done the same. Many of your fathers and brothers have perished valiantly in the face of a contemptible enemy. We must never forget what the Federation has done to our people! By focusing our anger and sorrow, we are finally in a position where victory is within our grasp, and once again, our nation will flourish. Victory is the greatest tribute we can pay those who sacrifice their lives for us! Rise, Rise! Take your sorrow, and turn it into anger!
Zeon thirsts for the strength of its people!
SIEG ZEON!!! SIEG ZEON!!! SIEG ZEON!!! SIEG ZEON!!!

Well...

Every morning, not recent days, but I see my friend who has a problem with his mental health. It's so hard for him just to do a high five, his whole body shivers with anxiety just reaching out to my hand. Now, thinking of him, I cannot watch this Eva stuff and find it interesting. Whoever creates this stuff has no idea what pain is whatsoever. I am utterly disgusted. If you really want to make things that make me feel sick, you can go ahead and do it. I would never wish to incorporate this perversion into my work at all. I strongly feel that this ... Evangelion stuff is an affront to human life itself.

Because, Satan, you've been influenced by Eva like the rest of us and you are searching for something that will create a similar emotional impact.
The Devilman manga might be worth looking into. Also the Berserk manga but for different reasons. Look for some older series until you find something that appeals to you visually or has an interesting premise.
Anime and manga today (as well as visual arts in general) are made by people from finance, social media and marketing. The director and writer are just workers like anyone else. (that is in the case they even have a writer and not just a bunch of students) They have minimal control over their own work until they accumulate 10-15 years of experience, and by that time they have already transformed into an empty suit with no head and a pair of glasses floating in space.

Because all other genre relies on fanservice to get easy otakubucks. Mecha is the only genre that is brave enough to input psychological theme in it instead of ecchishit garbage.

Science-fiction is fundamentally beautiful and hopeful, even when it's about judgmental aliens or surviving a manmade disaster. Ingenuity and community are implicit in technology and building and supporting a bigger man to shitkick stars is about the greatest synthesis of it you could ask for.

More like a deconstrict, amirite?

>>150857360
>It was a deconstruct of a mecha genre
Ive heard this but dont understand how so. Where can I read examples of how it is a deconstruction of mecha anime?
>>
>>150857445
>Because it's selling toys to kids, it has more freedom to be deep and confusing
Yes, and Yu-Gi-Oh! is the most deep, thought-provoking series out there, I'm sure.
It hurts
>>
>>150857752
I don't know where you can read it, but I'm sure you can. A few examples off the top of my head:

>Only a specific pilot can work the mech (explained)
>It's up to teenagers to save the world (justified, see above)
>Fighting monsters every week isn't that hard (subverted realistically)
>The mech power supply (more realistic, including all of Japan losing power)
>Collateral damage (actually acknowledged beyond "we need to fix the city")

You could also argue Asuka is a realistic tsundere, but it's more like she's the precursor, so she doesn't fit the archetype as well as you'd think.

For the record, the thing that makes it a deconstruction is that it takes scenarios/tropes from something else and puts them in a realistic light, either subverting them if they don't make sense or giving a more realistic explanation for them. Simply being realistic (as the characters are) doesn't make it a deconstruction, and simply subverting/explaining something doesn't make it a deconstruction.

the most immediate examples are that shinji often cracks under the pressure of responsibility, and also almost everyone is mentally scarred by interracting or violently beating utterly alien entities

But it kinda isn't the point of the Anime.
On the surface is a deconstruction of genre, but the most prominent layer is the character study

>>150857752
>>150858129
>>150858188
To be more specific, a Deconstruction is when a trope or archetype is played in a realistic manner, with all the consequences it entails that are often overlooked by previous works of fiction that employ those narrative device, often with darker results or with the trope not really happening.

Technically the one that provide a "realistic" explanation could be considered Reconstructions as you have the original trope modified in order to WORK in reality.
>>
>>150857578
From a certain point of view, yeah.
You could also say that getting eaten, unborn or mentally taken over by a hostile organism is nothing to look forward to, and that the freudian aspects of a devouring mother and an artificial womb make it even worse. Even under nominal conditions Evas are shown to be very painful and exhausting to use.
>about the greatest synthesis of it you could ask for.

I've started watching Zeta recently and I can only say Tomino's writing and worldbuilding is uncanny. Kamille gets emopwered both by running away and by witnessing the deaths of his parents. Both of which he'd been personally involved in. On the surface it's this whole socially acceptable story of a young soldier coming of age and overcoming the separation from his parents. But if you think too much about it, he's an accomplice to manslaughter and suddenly it becomes this twisted power fantasy for a certain type of viewer.
And what about the character (forgot name) that bullies Kamille in the first episode? He loses all the things he cares about as his life moves from one catastrophe to another. Or what about the vain female pilot that gets shot in the back? Is this Tomino's idea of poetic justice for when a character says one snappy remark too many?
