Is it really as profoundly deep as people claim?

no. it was really boring. evangelion is still the deepest and best anime out there

I wouldn't say it's deep it's just not as straightforward as other coming-of-age stories.
It's puberty + dicks + growing up. That's all.
It just runs at a thousand miles an hour and has a great soundtrack.
not deep tbqh, but aesthetic as fuck
Nah. Not deep.
It is very well put together, and an all-around great viewing experience though.

Then why is there still no explanation for the blatant defecation imagery, like in OP pic, as well the the multiple spicy curry shits?

Just dealing with serious themes at all already makes it more deep than the vast majority of anime.
the whole point of the show was for the creator to animate everything he thought was cool in a coming of age theme, its been confirmed
there is no deeper meaning, but its a good anime with nice symbolism and music

I think the animators were just being silly. Gainax alum fuck around a lot.

Here is a tip to the people how are retarded enough to ask /a/ if a show has thematic depth or not.
First you shoud kill yourself. Then write a search line in google and/or youtube that starts with the title of the show and is followed by the word analysis. Read/watch the essays people have wrote about the show and decide for yourself if it counts as "deep" or not.
