jesus christ what the fuck was that, just finished marathoning this and basically it's;
>run of the mill mediocre mech series >main character is extremely unlikable and does nothing but screeches for the entire show >serviceable show up until episode 23-24 when it devolves into an absolute pretentious shitshow >story vaguely wraps up then turns into a clip show that slowly spoonfeds the audience with the entire shows subtext and meaning along with some edgy and pretentious imagery >this movie comes out which is the same shit but with a bunch of hamfisted and clunky religious imagery added which makes people think its somehow deep >film sets up to a big showdown, but shinji just shows up, does his autistic screech then gets carried into space and hes fucking jesus somehow, story doesn't resolve or explain itself in the slightest
Genuinely annoyed you weebs talked me into watching this, I am 99% sure you only like it because it's filled with sexual undertones and shows underage cartoon tits
It's baby's first anime. What were you expecting? Even the majority of serious anime viewers don't give any praise to this shit.
Juan Ross
Bullshit. We warned you everytime this trash came up. Every single time we told those dweebs to fuck off back to Zig Forums. You have no one to blame but yourself
Tyler Johnson
Agreed Ive tried to watch this shit several times over the years and I just cant stand bitch ass Shinji.
I'm convinced you're memeing or you've been filtered.
So prove me wrong user, name some deeper anime.
Bonus points for naming something that succeeds in doing everything you say NGE failed it.

Hedgehog?

>it's filled with sexual undertones and shows underage cartoon tits holy shit i'm in
Kevin Gonzalez
Anime is typically trash, why does there need to be a better anime out there for my points to be valid?
This shit sucked, I literally just watched the entire thing

I am not even kidding.
Adrian Morgan
Did you even watch it? That’s like the central theme of the show
Nolan Rivera
I'm convinced that Japanese artistic sensibilities are only able to produce schlock
Adrian Wood
Not surprised by this, it reads like a service level adaptation of psychology by some highschool student
>im sad

I think Gurren Lagann is better and healthier.
Watching Eva as a kid made me all emo.

it gets better with time. watched it when i first got into anime a decade ago and thought nothing of it, but coming back to it today it's incredible something like this was able to get made.
An alarmingly-high percentage of those who watch anime and manga, have been deprived of the knowledge necessary to interact successfully with other human beings. Anime is nothing more than cartoons with featureless expressions, expressions that the audience often mimic and attempt to pass off as "socializing". More often than not, this is met with derision and scorn, as it should be.
Those who watch anime have not matured. They are stuck in eternal limbo between childhood and pubescence, completely unable to respond appropriately to others in the outside world. I suppose as long as they're contributing to society in some manner, shape or form by working a computer job from home instead of polluting outside with their awkward ugliness and foul scent, then I have no major issue with them.
>tl;dr: watch all the anime you want, manchild faggot, but don't bring your stink anywhere near me.
>name some deeper anime. >Yeah I used christian imagery because I thought it looked cool >Yeah the MC is a little bitch and cries a lot because he has serious daddy issues and can't get laid wow so deep
Brody Diaz
>still haven't named anything deeperer.
Admit it, you were FILTERED.
Evangelion is 2 deep 4 u
Jeremiah Perez
It's a fucking disaster
Same with Code Geass and TTGL
Overrated mech shows are the fucking worst somehow.
The amount of projection anime provokes in western nerds is hilarious. I know people who unironically think like this in real life, and they're all addicted to capeshit, video games, etc. American pop culture companies are afraid of the Japanese cutting in on their racket, so they've trained their cattle to both reject the competitor and to never develop any self-awareness whatsoever. From an outsider's perspective you're all embarrassing.
