Why was there no doctor to check up on Shinji's mental state?

>be Shinji
>Scream like a girl
>Never have sex
>All the girls still think hes cute and attractive

I don't understand.

Because they want him to be fucked up.

EoE - "Just as planned, his ego is so low that we can start the ritual"

if I remember correctly, shinji was only capable of piloting the angel-fighting construct because his mother had dissolved herself into the spine of the eva
just based on what I've typed so far, you should understand that making sense, or being sane in any way, was never the goal of this show
one of its major themes is that being the center of the entire universe and saving everyone isnt all its cracked up to be, and we're all just weak and afraid

Why is there so much fucking repetition? Boo hoo i don't wanna fight....but someone's in danger I have to! I'm running away, wait never mind. Oh shit I'm scared, better run away...nah I'll come back. *stares at ceiling for 3 minutes. ugh this ceiling isn't doing it for me. Let's hold on this scene for an obscenely long time...and then do it again 2 or 3 more times because it's coool. Have you met my pet penguin? He's SO CUTE and serves no purpose!

Cut the show down to 13 episodes and get rid of the penguin and it'd become the best anime ever made

you're right, but you're also overstimulated by the internet and thus incapable of enjoying things the way people did 20 years ago

1: Japanese culture does not believe in psychology, so even in real life getting mental treatment is very hard and not something you admit there.
2: Having him fail and melt down was part of Gendo's scenario, despite this dumb retardos all over the western world still believe NGE is about fighting the angels.

>t.speedwatcher

>netflix isn't tv
based retard

why the fuck does he go to school where he gets beat up by bullys with no one interfering? they really don't care about getting crushed by the angels.

Yes

Also: all the adults in Evangelion lived through 2nd Impact, at least a decade of literal hell on earth. By comparison to that shit, Shinji's problems were about as significant as a genderfluid teenager complaining about pronouns to their Jewish grandmother who was in Auschwitz. It's surprising Shinji did not get slapped and kicked more by the adults.

Shame that army nut kid never got to pilot an Eva, he'd have kicked the shit out of the Angels. But that was never the plan.

IM half way into the show...that's what Evas are? That's kinda dumb

Is it just me or are monster (angels) really poorly designed? With Giant Robots fighting giant monster shows they at least usually have cool looking monsters
These things just look lame

incel

Kaworu

a character with no development who Shinji somehow thinks is the nicest person ever and can do no wrong despite having known him and been betrayed by him within 1 episode.

Kaji is based and is the only character who has his shit together.

Lack of a father figure in his life.

The girls that want him (Rei and Asuka) are not what we could call "mentally healthy", one is a literally husk and other has HUGE traumas.

Anime isn't Yea Forums.

anime is on television you fucking retarded boomer
go play with your toys you bedwetter

It's just you

everybody working at seele and nerve hardly qualify as human.
they are more like machines who only care about results which is fitting considering what their secret goal was all along

...

I cared for kozo since I understood his reasoning and he never did anything too bad

kaji was cool

All of the kids in Shinji's class were potential Eva pilots. I dunno why that kid never got to be one. Too competent maybe.

>teenage boy with dead mom
>abandoned by his father
>father is a prick
>had to pilot some lovecraftian machine with the soul of his dead mother
>only wants a little praise and attention
>experiences terror on a level that no one could understand
>get the fucking robot shinji

...

Netflix doesn't dictate what is and isn't allowed on this board you stupid idiot.

no and neither do you.
and by the way
HAVE SEX.

Tonys mom knew what it was.

they were monitoring his ego when he was inside the eva

i liked pen pen, reminds me of my dog
