This post has been inspired by this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sg-hA64-yWs

I had known that Evangelion and Gurren Lagann can be therapeutic but I had no idea that it was supposed to spur to "action". I will admit that it may not an accurate but are these shows supposed to spur you into "action"?

I'm not about to watch an hour long video essay on a show I found as boring as TTGL, so I won't be able to respond in detail, but in general the rule of thumb is that if an anituber is the primary source for a claim, that claim is probably bullshit.

The movies function on their own terms. If people can't accept them on those terms, and keep expecting them to be NGE, then they probably should have realized a while ago that they weren't going to have a good time. ~ Words of wisdom courtesy of Reichu

You are probably might be right about that.

I remember how Evangelion made me angry at some point, mainly because of how Shinji is treated so poorly by others.

I am more likely to be angry at that than what the video mentioned. Shinji is a kind, brave boy who gets mistreated by others.
