Discuss your opinions about the series. For me it taught me many things and even helped cleared my depression. I beleive it's a masterpiece and can never be replaced.
oh hey you have a completely dumb and ignorant view of actual, clinical-depression. congratulations!I'm surprised you could put up with the main character, which is a whining kid that I would smack across the head if he was real. While the main character bothered me, I did like the impressive backstories of the characters.
Did I ever say you did?Y'know, there's no rule stating that we have to like and feel sorry for Shinji just because he's got issues.
He saves the world numerous times. The only occasions on which he complains and backs out is when he himself either directly or indirectly nearly/actually kills a human being. He gets no psychological help AT ALL (would you propose sending 14 years into war? Furthermore, that they don't receive any psychological help when off the battlefield? Why do you think soldiers commit suicide?). He does better than most people would in his situation.He's still the whiniest and most spineless main character of any anime ever made,
Subjective, and who the hell cares, anyway? Most highly-acclaimed literature has unlikable characters, yet they're remembered over the pandering nonsense that is put out. I'd rather have a well-written and rounded character than some machoistic hero in the type of story that Anno wanted to tell.and he's one of the most annoying characters in anything ever made.
