My personal opinion is that the vast majority of the Eva viewers don't actually understand it, in the anime fandom Eva is considered great in spite of its ending for example, not (also) because of the ending. I can't imagine how it's possible to dislike Shinji and like Eva at the same time, for me ...

I think people here gloss over some fairly horrible things he does. Jerk off scene the most obvious. He’s also really dependent on others. Your free to feel however you want about him but it’s not as if people only don’t like him just “cus he’s a wus!” And then this weird projection thing, people do...

I've heard people suggest Rei is Schizoid. Emotional coldness, detachment or reduced affect. Limited capacity to express either positive or negative emotions towards others. Consistent preference for solitary activities. Very few, if any, close friends or personal relationship, and a lack of desire ...

People don't like being reminded of the flaws that exist within themselves. That is why so many people are "hateful" toward Shinji, because they don't want to admit that they've been like him. We don't want to admit when we're weak or vulnerable. He gets a lot of unnecessary hate by a lot...

Someone, I forget who, said the biggest similarity between them is how misunderstood/misinterpreted they both are.

Its worth noting you can think someone is an excellent character and not like them. I feel Their are people who like him, people who hate him, and people who think he's well written and not care for him as a person. Their are a lot of fictional characters like that.

Nothing, the vast majority of the show's substance is him. Even the other characters, some of which are very deep are developed in relation to him. With him no one remembers eva in 2000 let a lone 2017.

Yea and he just did as he was told. But then again he might have just not cared

Woot! I definitely think he does have some avpd that's why he's so miserable because it makes his dpd more difficult. As for the house broken male thing, I dont mean that he did house who. I might be miss remembering, but didn't give up and just do as he was told before that. I'm thinking maybe the ...

So it seems the common consensus is Shinji has AVPD, He defiantly has a lot of symptoms of Avoidance. I was Wondering however does he also have DPD or some kind of mix? He really depends on other people to make all his major life choices (Eva pilot, Cello), To validate him (something someone with pu...

Not exactly cosplay, but me my sister and a friend met Tiffany Grant. She was unbelievably cool...

I wouldn't say that Rei's speech solely switched his mindset. Through instrumentality, Shinji was able to experience a world where only he exists--a world without Eva (in other words: the real world , hence the live action scene). I'm almost certain that Shinji's epiphany would originate more from ...

What EoE does is display Shinji at his lowest point, unwilling to live or do anything, eventually coming to it's climax as he wishes the world would just die. By the end, he reaches an epiphany and decides that he finally is willing to live and do things. His character does a complete 180, and yeah...

Jet fuel can't melt ice caps. 9/13 was an inside job :p

I might be wrong but didn't Fututsuki get appointed his advisor? I might be misremembering that.

So one thing I've always sort of wondered is, what exactly is Gendo's profession? I mean I know he is the commander of NERV but I mean what are his qualifications other then being well connected? Is he a Scientist? Engineer? He's defiantly not a solider of any kind. We see him in school but we never...

Hello I'm new. I like Aviation, History Science and tech in general, plus a little philosophy. My fav shows are Digimon and Serial Experiments Lain. Sometimes I watch Eva because its vaguely related to that. I have Schizotypal disorder and am a little bit odd, don't take it personal its not meant to...
