is he gay or not?
>>138155784
He's not gay, since he is explicitly attracted to women. Potentially bi, but when it comes right down to it what happened with Kaworu was
A - never confirmed to be homosexual in nature
and
B - had less to do with gay boners and waaaaaay more to do with the fact that literally every other person that Shinji knew had at that point either abandoned him, shut themselves off from him, become overtly hostile to him, or was a terrifying alien clone of his mom (it doesn't matter if you disagree, Shinji says that Rei scares him and that's what matters here). And then his Kowaru guys shows up, offering unconditional affection and understanding with no apparent ulterior motive. Shinji latched onto that shit like a drowning man grabs for driftwood.

He fapped to Asuka and Asuka is a man. So yes, he is gay.
>>138156078
He gay
To me it's pretty clear that he was written to have some pretty homosexual tendencies. There are several places where he doesn't seem comfortable with his sexuality.
Since we're debating already settled shit from the nineties.
Is she gay?
>>138156078
He's gay anon
>>138155784
He would kiss or fuck anyone who genuinely seemed to love him, so he's just "pathetic". If Kaworu were female, he would've still gone for her.
>>138156078
He refused sex from Misato, he's pretty gay anon.
>>138156078
Anno confirmed Shinji as bi anon
Irrelevant. People who are defined by their sexuality alone are cancer.
>>138155784
> or
Shinji likes both penis and vagina

Misato didn't *actually* care about him and was just some weird old lady in the end.

>Misato didn't *actually* care about him and was just some delicious cake in the end
ftfy
>>138156559
She cared about him.
His attraction towards Kaworu was purely emotional, if you consider that to be gay, then I guess he was. He only shows sexual attraction towards Asuka.
>>138155832
I didn't understand this, is that not actually Asuka's figure? Why would she need padding for a more feminine figure?

I don't know he jerked off over a comatose chick's tits.

It was.
By Anno himself.
Shinji is canonically bisexual and has been since 1996.
>>138155784
>>138158168
I always thought Shinji was attracted to Kaji too.
Like in the aircraft carrier "ova tha rainbow" where Shinji seemed to be gushing at him.
Then of course, that shit from Rebuild in the locker room.
>>138158168
And yet Ikuhara's heart didn't budge one bit.

Maybe it would have if Anno didn't look like a sweaty homeless man.
