Misato has ice, snacks and 50 GALLONS OF BEER in her fridge lmao. Mood. Her car is wrecked and there’s a monster that might kill her and all she can think about is car payment loans lol. She’s just like me fr. Well, except for the groomer vibes she’s giving off.

I’m sure it’s gonna get depressing very soon, I hear all the characters suck and half of them are sexpests. Seems like you get a pretty decent understanding of why they suck though. I already dislike Shinji though, dude get in the fucking robot the world is ending. I guess sucking is hereditary, because his dad sucks too, fucking dumbass. Dude if your son is “the chosen one” when it comes to piloting these things and you’re all “I must sacrifice everything for the mission” then sacrifice some free time to be with your son so your top pilot is less psychologically messed up.

NERV is in dire need of a psych team though, insane that there isn’t a dedicated therapist to help the pilots deal with trauma.

Also it’s so beautiful! I miss old anime like this and Akira, everything just gets to breathe. It’s so pretty every frame is a painting. The women have noses and they look like women, which is also impressive. Sadly there’s still only one body type women can have, but at least they can look humanoid.

Anyway, bit idea: Guy who only watches Evangelion for the fights.

Edit: Okay so Shinji managed to make two friends and they get sent away. The dude needs a support network, how incompetent can his dad be? “Huh my best pilot is getting some friends? Can’t have that, we need him to be as mentally unstable as possible!”
Dude needs to be fired.

Double edit: Now on an episode where an EVA goes berserk and tries to attack the dad and he just stands there looking at it and then when it breaks thru to him he’s shocked. The guy is absolutely not beating “himbo, but not actually hot, just dumb” allegations

    Oof fishman island is probably the weakest part of the series tbh, I stopped reading the series for a few years when it got to fishman island. It’s kind of a nice breather after Impel Down though. Fishman Island does also set up a kick-ass arc.
    It does have an incel and a racist agitator though, so you might get so e fun out of it from a leftist perspective. If it gets too slow though, then don’t feel too bad if you skip forward a bit.

    On the other hand I loved all the stuff they did in the East Blue and Alabasta and I kind of miss the vibes from back then, which isn’t the general consensus as far as I can tell, so who am I to tell what is captivating and not?

    It’s not really spoiling to know about the dude either, but it’s just incredibly satisfying to see that asswhooping.
    Yeah it’s a character we’ve already met at the point you’re at (no it’s not Sogeking, he would never fight Luffy.)
