So I'm fresh out of eva ship, and this was the most tryhard bullshit I ever saw. literally a run of the mill mecha with some religious themes to make it more interesting.
>The story
As I said the first 20 eps are a generic episodic mecha, angel appears, shinji beats him, end of episode, repeat.
The last 6 eps are full of shit, muh adam muh lilith, life is so hard, 2deep4you bullshit, which isn't really deep, it's just bunch of people complaining how their life is shit.
>The characters
Oh my god the characters are shit, everybody is so fucking dependent on everybody else, it's hilarious, and every bodies misery boils down to unrequited love and general sexual frustration.
I mean maybe I can empathize with people who watched it on air, because maybe then, there wasn't much shit like this, but boy did it age like milk.
So anyways, off to watch the rebuilds now
I have the feeling you'll love the rebuild movies.
They're full of really cool action scenes and Shinji becomes a strong, cool guy who yells a lot.

There's a lot of shit like eva these days?

I would watch a mindless action anime anytime over some pretentious shit which tries so hard to look deep but it isn't deep at all.
>>140616180
Okay. Here's your (You).
>>140616956
The pretentious thing got stale some years ago anon.
Try a different approach
>>140616956
Pretentiousness would be the raising of a show's pedigree through seemingly intelligent references providing innocuous consequences. Just like that sentence.
Evangelion doesn't really do that except for the whole "Hedgehog's Dilemma" in the early episodes.

>Run of the mill mecha show
>Shaped the genre
It's as if it wasn't made 30 years ago, anon.
>Unrequited love
>Sexual frustration
>People dependent on each other
Basically the human condition in a nutshell
>pretentious
Trying to build a genuinely interesting setting and, as a show, accomplish something? Doing so and creating a highly nuanced anf well-cibstructed universe? Structuring it qlong Judeo-Christian lines? I bet you really hated Tolkein as a kid.
>people complaining how their life is shit
Did you honestly only get that? I guess this show really was too deep for you.
>episodic
>it's not that deep
>characters are pussies
>it aged bad
All the memes.
Good job OP.

It's still valid because it's the perfect word to describe it.

>It's as if it wasn't made 30 years ago, anon.
I already said I can empathize with people who watched it on air, but it's really nothing new for people who watch it today.
>Basically the human condition in a nutshell
Oh come on, yes stuff like that will occur in lives of most people, but the thing is most people will get over it as the time passes, where everyone in evagelion is stuck on it, fuck lost my shit when that bitch strangled loli rei and killed herself after that, only because loli rei said to her that gendo doesn't like her.
>next two arguments
I mean that's your opinion and this is mine, and obviously neither of us will change it for the sake of the other, so no point in arguing over it.
I pity low power level faggots like you guys

who can only enjoy the movie/rebuilds exclusively.
People who actually grew up with chinese cartoons since their childhood found both variations to be overall entertaining.
