he's a kid you nigger, of course he's going to whine about it

that kid from enders game should play him in the inevitable anime live action adaptation

hits too close to home op?
at least he has a reason to whine, you're just a NEET

How'd a pussy like Shinji get a girl like Asuka?

it's not a fucking documentary, it's a fictional story, I'd think writing an interesting mc would be a priority

Very frustrating to watch. You just want him to do what he has to do and kick ass, but he refuses, and episodes stretch on and on without any sweet robot action. It's really a drag. Fuck Shinji.

so he should be generic badass kid pilot MC instead? having him act like an actual person instead of a cliche caricature is far more interesting, at least it's different

Is rebuild part 4 out yet? It's been so long.

He's a 14 y/o with daddy and mommy issues as well as depression who is forced by his cunt of a father to pilot a giant robot against aliens. I'd be whiny to.
Also he's a teenager so he's got as these hormones but the only girls his age he interacts with are some crazy bitch with even more psych problems than him and some autistic blue haired chick who wants his daddies cummies.
Shinji had a hard life so don't make fun of him.

Saved her from drowning in a volcano

Fucking chad. Reeeee

Anime is fucking gay.

>watch japanese anime
>male mc is a beta
Everytime

>gets to pilot giant robots to save humanity and hang out with sexy older women and girls his own age all day
>spends all his time having panic attacks and throwing temper tantrums

I get it, not everyone is cut out to do everything, but jesus christ. People suffer through shit millions of times worse than this guy had to deal with on a daily basis and are just fine. The only valid concern he even had (that his actions determine the fate of all of fukken humanity) he didn't even seem to care about, prefering to instead do his best to ruin every task he was given. This guy is like a linkin park song frankensteined up into a human body.

>LE deconstruction of mecha genre
>see guys mechas are actually impractical and having kids do this shit would be too much pressure lmao
Wow real profound Anno I never would have realized that on my own. You know what my giant robot cartoons need? A whiny bitch and pretentious christian allusion that the creator himself admitted was just about being cool.

>be a literal child
>have no formal military training
>suddenly get forced to fight giant aliens that can easily fuck your shit up
>get pressured to save and protect everyone even though collateral damage is inevitable, end up being responsible if people are dying
>all of the people who work with you are also either mentally or emotionally unstable
>wtf why is he panicking?

>watch Japanese anime
>guy watching it is a beta
Everytime

Also he feels any damage the Eva feels. He's been decapitated and maimed a few times.

...

the weebest meme ive ever seen

yeah, you panic the first time. he panics every single time without fail and learns absolutely nothing from any of his experiences. then he slowly degrades into further and further madness instead of adapting to his situation. sure, he acts like "an actual person", but it's an actual person that's a repugnant shit. his only valuable trait is that the mech can't be operated by anyone but him. there are worse protagonists out there but finding them takes some effort.

I'm honestly convinced they were trying to piss of their audience as much as possible with this entire series. it's a shame the budget of the new movies is wasted on such an awful cast of characters. only redeeming feature is the mech fights and military porn.

no, you are just retarded

tony is a good example of a good main character btw, shinji should've been more like tony

you're either too young or too normie to ever understand.

either that or you're a completely well-adjusted person. if thats the case, you need to leave this website.

stick to dbz next time

>when people say "MC" instead of protagonist

no u

compare him the kid from tokyo ghoul where 90% of his dialogue consists of him literally crying and screaming. unbearable, jesus christ

mc and protagonist aren't one and the same

>too normie to ever understand.
>a completely well-adjusted person
yes
>you need to leave this website
no

>how dare you try to streamline your posts!!
>only proper reddiquette on this site!!!

because he's fighting giant aliens that are killing people and blowing shit up

it's not like this is his first office job or something, he's forced into an extremely stressful military position where he's held accountable if people die

what you said may make sense if shinji was a violent kid, or a psychopath, or fought angels for years, but i don't think you could ever get "used" to a job like shinji's, especially if you're just an immature schoolkid

>sweet robot action

that's the only thing going for Eva to draw in the pleb audience

>anime
hey kid, why don't you fuck off to

>eva is still good without the robots
why don't you go watch one of your girl animes

The evas are fine but it's a good thing that they weren't the main focus of the show

it's written for whiny faggots

Not as bad as Honda kia.

>People suffer through shit millions of times worse than this guy had to deal with on a daily basis
So when was the last time you had to kill an angel with literally the entire future of mankind riding on your shoulders

You're not supposed to like or empathize with shinji. He's the complete opposite of every teenage main character from mecha anime at the time. Half of evangelion is just deconstruction of anime tropes.

It was written to trigger whiny faggots.

I liked him, but I think Shinji started the trend of the beta and clueless MC, which is already tiring.

>itt insecure betas that project themselves onto show characters get upset when the character is to much like the real them

The only character I sympathized with was Asuka.

any chance you enjoy capeshit?

Howdy reddit

drop the show it just gets worse

i'm just a few episodes in and shinji already walked in on a naked rei and dropped on top of her touching her breasts, don't fucking tell me about deconstruction of tropes

Rei's reaction is the deconstruction

you're just reading too much into it

LMAO

You're retarded user, I don't thing evengelion is the show for you. Maybe pokemon or beyblade would be more your speed?

it actually is though, normally in most anime both the guy and the girl would overreact and go "baka!" and it would devolve into some wacky hijinks, when shinji does it though it's just kinda awkward and embarrassing, like in real life

>a shonen anime is literally to complex for these guys
It's all surface level, instead of some comedic reaction and Shinji getting slapped like literally every other anime that situation pops up in its just awkward
It's not that deep guys

so this is what autism is like

You watched one chinese carton and now you think you're a fucking expert. What the fuck is it with Eva fans that makes them this way?

>japanese lyrics

youtube.com/watch?v=KJuexdl_c5s

The final episode is the best fuk u nigger

If you think a basic understanding of what a show is actually about is autisim, what the fuck are you doing on Sup Forums? Like seriously, its not our fault you're dumb as hell.

Double dubs tell only the truth.

>gets btfo
>b-but a-autism

go write up your gay fan theories on reddit

thanks but I'm still going with the weeb version

Weak ass bait nigger. Troll harder.

>b-but reddit
>s-stop being mean to me

>haha, show's awkward and cringy on purpose, take that
autism

Can we kill this meme? Sure, he whines a lot during the series. But when it comes down to it, he got in the fucking robot every time, since episode 1. He also rekt every angel (granted, mommy helped a lot), turned into a fucking god and made everyone into living eternal gatorade.

By the way, if you can only judge the series by its kewl fights xD (which it has), and would feel more comfortable with a cliché, predictable protagonist, go be a pleb and watch the newest Marvel. Fuck you.

We get it user, you want us to know you're retarded. We understand.

The final two episodes were so bad they had to make a movie out of it lmao you're wrong

The final two episodes were released as is to piss off animu nerds. Ano was literally giving the finger to the fanbase.

I can't relate to these fags, either they're shitty self inserts or beta faggots.
Is there ANY anime with a strong, alpha MC?

Tonnes, dbz, hellsing ultimate, berserk just to name a few. Have you actually watched any anime?

Spike and Jet from cowboy bebop ooze alpha

yeah i agree dude, when i was 14 i was a fr*ckin badass who killed terrorists left and right with my katana and fucked hundreds of girls, where's the anime for me?

did you watch the show

shinji is actually the most talented pilot with the highest sync rate. he only gets fucked by the completely insane abilities the angels have like the one that dumped him into a pocket dimension. piloting skill wont help you there.

No, i tried watching one back then and i hated the MC.
And DBZ?
From what i remember Goku didn't have much of a personality anyway, he was pretty selfish too.

Comboy bebop uh?
I've hard a lot about it, is it really any good?

Jesus Christ mate, stop projecting.

Maybe. He is that by design.

I fucking hate EVA anyways. One of the most overrated series i know of.

>Comboy bebop uh?
>I've hard a lot about it, is it really any good?
It really is. It's a very short(under thirty episodes) space western about a couple of bounty hunters.

Shinji is very much like Tony
>hates self
>not honest with people
>oedipus complex
>parental neglect
he's just less prone to violent outbursts and probably less depressed

Goku is japanese superman, he's alpha as hell. The whole show is alpha dudes beating each other to a pulp. Really though japan has a different idea than we do of what makes an alpha male. Most characters that we would consider alpha are from shows heavily influenced by western culture.

Don't forget the movie, which is also pretty awesome.

If you hate Shinji you didn't understand a single thing about Evangelion or what Anno was trying to say.
I'm guessing you haven't even finished watching it.

yeah and tony actually interacts with other people and has interesting conversations, shinji never says anything even remotely of value, it's all boring cliche anime lines

I mean, yeah, these are two different shows we're talking about, I'm just saying they do fit into a vaguely similar archetype

I hated Shinji when I watched Eva as a teen but I like him in his own way now
In fact the more I watch Eva the more I like it

Nigga Shinji is a beta faggot mc done right as it actually explores his insecurities and why he's unable to form connections instead of being a retarded escapist self-insert harem mc.

>le autism
How about you go back to you site normie

not every main character has to be fucking snake plisskin. its ok that Shinji was a beta male that just makes him readily identifiable with the countless majority of anime fans

stick to watching capeshit

>Ano was literally giving the finger to the fanbase

my favorite anno meme

I don't think thats quite true. I get what its all about, but I still don't really like shinji. I can empathize with him, understand why he is the way he is, and still not like him as a person.

>Bruh, a middle school/high school Japanese kid needs to ride a robot who is at least 60 meters tall, and needs to fight monsters that almost kill the entire humanity, why would he feel scared about it?

>Bruh, he´s a guy that´s suffering the effecfts of puberty, like emotional changes, so, by logic, he needs to be very mature and act like an adult

Really? Is that what you think? I suppose you are not used to see verisimilitude in a show or movie...

watching non-mecha scenes are like watching paint dry, I don't feel invested in a character with as much personally as a rock

only the manliest metrosexuals allowed in jojo

I just keep letting me down letting me down letting me down

HEY
JUDE

>i can think of reasons why he would be a shit character
>therefore it's good that he's a shit character
you can say that about literally every character

also no

KEK, you didn´t reply to any of my statements, you just pointed out different subjects

Why is he a bad character? He has his goals, his problems, and the explanation for those 2, also he has a good characterization, the thing with Shinji is that he is a 3rd dimensional character, he´s as complex as a real life person, it´s ok if you don´t relate to him, after all, he´s not a 2nd dimension character where you can realy relate to, in fact, Shinji may remind you of some real person you know, which can be better or worse for you

Straight bitch made bruh

would bully

DELET

That's why i used the word 'hate', learn to read faggot.
