I never see anybody mention how neoplatonism and gnosticism relate to shinjis self improvement and achieving nous. They just say the angelic stuff is just there to look cool and has nothing to do with anything. They are wrong.

People want to be close, but by their nature they will hurt each other being close. The hedgehog's dilemma. Shinji running away from relationships and Gendo's cold attitude towards him, Asuka acting mean to Shinji, Misato and Kaji's relationship, it's a major theme of the show. The Third Impact breaks down the barriers separating people.

It's even an episode title

it's about psilocybin

There is nothing to understand. All the deeper stuff in anime is retarded psychobabble, made all the more confusing by them sometimes incorporating christian or Western imagery and themes and then cargo culting or perverting them cause they don't really mean anything to japanese. The entire culture is inexplicable. Why can't they just make some normal sci fi?

They literally spoonfeed you during the last two episodes. The entire anime is about the hedgehog dilemma and being an introvert during teenage year.

nobody understand it, because that is the idea

I like Pii-chan's drowsy eyes, I like how she's kind and sweet, I like how she's the thoughtful and smart kinda girl. The bookish type. I like how she cares about the little machine gunners she carries around on her strong back, it's so cute. I'd love to have the honor of being one of Pieck's gunners. I'd like to think I'd be her top soldier. I like how her titan is the most ugly, doofus looking titan around. I didn't used to like the cart man, but Pii being who she is, made me like it. I bet Pieck doesn't care that her titan looks dumb. I bet Pieck doesn't have any self-image issues, even though she has to spend months at a time as the dumbest looking titan. Pieck loves herself I bet, in a healthy, self-assured way. I hope Pieck's human voice is nice. How do you guys imagine it sounding? I'll go out on a limb here, I think it needs to sound somewhat listless, but with kindness. That wispy, airy kind of voice some seiyuus use. Neither particularly low or particularly high pitched. Measured and in control. Mellow. Soothing, like Pii-chan's presence itself, like you wanna take a nap with her curled up in your lap like a cat. Did I mention Pieck's eyebags? I know I did, that was rhetorical. I just really like eye circles on girls. Eyebags I call 'em. It's so cute. And her nose, what do I even have to tell you about her nose? Everyone knows all about Pieck's nose. Thank you Isayama for giving us lots of cute and distinct noses. Pii is so cute. Annie was always my favorite, but then I met Pii-chan. I still feel affection for Annie, certainly, don't get me wrong... But for me, I'm thinking it's Pieck. Sometimes, what or who you were destined for, you think you found it, then you round the corner, and there it comes along, like a cute sweet girl walking on all fours towards you down the street, haha! Pii-chan, Piku-chan, Pieck Pieck Pieck! Pieck is truly... peak performance. As expected of Pieck.

anime is popular
anime about robot is always popular
anime about robot with a psicological and biblical things that are well done makes it popular between non anime audience
and faggots like this one that like waifus

It is like a mech show+an intro to psych class. Shit sucks ass

because they don't, you speud. him interacting with the angels is pretty important but that aspect of it doesn't have much relation to him.

There’s nothing to understand. It was made by a man in the throes of a nervous breakdown.

based

The toy line deal fell through halfway into production and the studio ran out of money by the end.

Anno didn't understand it either.

Pretty much this.

Two different alien species landed on Earth: Adam and Lilith. They can't coexist and so Lilith dominated the Earth. The "angels" on the show come from the Adam line, humans descended from Lilith. Now the angels are returning to destroy humanity and take over Earth for their own kind. Using cloning tech, the evangelions were created and made for combat against the angels. Humanity however is not just playing defense, Seele, the organization behind Nerv intends to initiate third impact once the angels are destroyed: revert humanity to primordial goo and combine all of our souls. They almost achieve this, but Rei ends up taking the reigns herself during the process and gives control to Shinji instead of Gendo or Seele. The lessons Shinji learns throughout the show, that its better to have a real, though painful life is better than a fantasy fake life and third impact is interrupted.
hope that helps

why the faggot remember everything in the new movies? I don't get that part

It's about depression, everything else is just filler.
