I'm still confused as to why Asuka was so popular with older otaku. She's kind of like an embodiment of all the qualities of the "stereotypical" woman. She likes Shinji, or at least wants to fuck him, but would rather die than admit that to him or tell him, and would instead like his beta soiboi bitchass to figure out that she wants him to bang her brains out while being hostile to him.
Was it the times? I doubt she'd have much of an impact on zoomers and stuff, given that any semblance of overlap between 3D and 2D women would make them rage.
I mean, Shinji and Asuka are that meme of women never speaking their mind and wanting men to figure out their thoughts, and men being too clueless to pick up on this.

>She likes Shinji, or at least wants to fuck him
I hate this meme.
>I hate reality
ok
There's 0 proof of her liking him. She just wants attention, and even his would do.
>reality
Memes are rarely a reality. This one isn't the case.
She likes Kaji more.
But she never fuck him.
>Was it the times? I doubt she'd have much of an impact on zoomers and stuff, given that any semblance of overlap between 3D and 2D women would make them rage.
Waifus used to have lifes outside MC before the 00s
She wants attention, but also the dick. Shinji is just too beta to take the bait because if he fucks up her autistic fantasy, Asuka rages.
Nah. I think she knew Kaji was just there to be like, "Yeah, you're really cute Asuka all the boys like you" but she knew he never looked at her the way he looked at Misato. That sexual frustration would be vent on Shinji, because she wanted the validation, and even this betafag wouldn't dare to give it to her, and she was too proud to ask. What do you honestly think would have happened if Shinji just strolled into Asuka's bedroom one night and he started kissing her neck and fingering her? She'd give in.
Modern otakus lose their shit with the sole idea of a waifu being in the same room with a male that isn't MC. These are cartoon characters but still the otakus live in a constant state of paranoia about their purity
what a degenerate slut
She doesn't fuck Shinji either.
>What do you honestly think would have happened if Shinji just strolled into Asuka's bedroom one night and he started kissing her neck and fingering her? She'd give in.
I highly doubt that. She would probably just slap him.
She just wants to fuck kaji because of her daddy issues.
Popular in terms of being a waifu or as a character? Asuka's not who you would think of when you think modern day waifu's but she was a great character in nge. If you liked nge at least which I did.
t. doesn't know women
Nigga, she'd be so wet she'd forget how to speak, she would only moan and nod her head.
tyrone, rape is a crimeaa
She is a child, and written by an otaku who probably doesn't know women well either.
Nobody likes NGE, not even evafags. They like the waifus/Kaworu, the mechas and the religious symbolism
based anno trolling
Youve never actually been around a real woman, have you?
Pretty much this. Asukafags often claim they like their waifu for being a strong female character but they seem to have rape fantasies about Asuka and teaching her to submit to the cock.
Staying in-character, Asuka is a neurotic mess full of contradictions. Also Anno knew about his limitations and try to investigate about women by reading women novels or discussing with the female VAs. He even thanks them in EoE
She is a teenager, and in the age where she would get curious about sex. Plus, Asuka is implied to be a very precocious kid given that she's finished university at 14 and what not.
Sometimes you gotta go for the pussy. That's what Asuka wanted. If she doesn't want it you stop and continue with your life.
Both. Asuka resembles a real woman, yet she is the waifu of many old otaku. Can you imagine a girl like her, throwing herself at an older man who is by all accounts a Chad that breaks hearts, being as popular as her. Anno would have been stabbed if he created Asuka past 2009.
>She is a teenager, and in the age where she would get curious about sex. Plus, Asuka is implied to be a very precocious kid given that she's finished university at 14 and what not.
That doesn't mean she would just fuck Shinji because he started fingering her.
>People just PRETEND to like that one thing that I don't like!1!!!111!
It's funny people use this quote to say none of the symbolism mean anything and is all just for show. When it doesn't even say that.
I mean, while nge looks a bit monster of the week in the middle, I think it does a great job of drawing you in by giving some information and then creating more questions while showcasing the characters relatinoships and growth. Once you get into its pace, as long as you actively watch and are ok with not understanding things at first its a great show.
Not to mention its just fucking cool. The end of eoe just made me think, "fuck that was awesome" and then try to figure out exactly what I had watched.
T. never had female friends.., and overweight
>the girl that gets mad that she wants the attention of betabitch, despite not wanting it, would not want to have sex with him despite all the teasing she does and how mad she gets when the beta just shies away instead of touching her
>dude you've never had female friends lmao
I have, but I've lost nearly all of them because we end up having sex.
Imagine what's going through Kaji's head at the time. Knowing about all the shit going on, and just seeing this broken kid.
Your hideous obese sister doesnt count
>>the girl that gets mad that she wants the attention of betabitch, despite not wanting it, would not want to have sex with him despite all the teasing she does and how mad she gets when the beta just shies away instead of touching her
Asuka would have rejected Shinji the exact time he would have reciprocated.
>this much coping
Just stop, you're pathetic.
So you willing ignore all the signs laid out by the show. Lemme guess, you're a Reifag?
Cringe
shut the fuck up stupid zoomer
You know, I've always wondered about this. Taking into account her mental state, she clearly wants some kind of connection. Thats why she throws herself towards kaji then shinji. If shinji had reciprocated I think its possible she would have continued. Not because she was in love with shinji or anything but because she wanted that connection.
>So you willing ignore all the signs laid out by the show. Lemme guess, you're a Reifag?
You mean the signs of Asuka only perusing people that rejects her and rejects people that approach her?
The point is that Asuka would have been too afraid to have a genuine connection with anyone.
The fantasy that if Shinji would just have manned up and accept Asuka's flirting everything would have worked out for her is just that, a fantasy.
The more you talk, the more you sound really desperate for connection. I mean physical connection with a pretty 14 years old girl who call you anta baka but deep down want you to embrace her and tell her everything is OK
If she just wanted connection then there were ton of guys that could have given it to her.
Not the same person as who you were arguing with. I'm just saying her mental state through the story makes it hard to gauge what exactly she would do. I think that yeah if shinji had recipricated she could have just punched him because in the end she doesn't actually love shinji. But I do think depending on how broken she was she could have continued.
True, but I mean in the end the two guys she works with and fights the same battles with she throws herself at. That plus her past makes it seem like its hard for her to make relationships and she was desperate for some connection.
I think Asuka wanted Shinji despite how much she protested otherwise. Getting rejected by Kaji, the literal opposite of Shinji, solidifies this in mind. Besides, why go through all the teasing and getting angry when someone you're "not into" doesn't reciprocate.
>but she's a teenager
So fucking what? Kids fuck all the time, get over it.
Being EVA the deconstruction or whatever it is, wouldn't it make sense that the main girl isn't interested in the MC?
Broken girl I want to fix
duuuuuuuuuuuuuuude
She's a damaged girl with mommy issues and wants a Daddy to praise her.
a sexy daddy.
It's not a deconstruction, but it does subvert somethings. Asuka, however, isn't the main girl. Misato is.
Different for the sake of different is just contrarian. Deconstruction would be more like if she were otherwise neurotic enough to more believably behave like that in the first place, MC denseness caused lasting damage, and if she got worse over time.
She'd try to play it off that she doesn't like it or want but deep down she'd like it. Her deepest want was wanting another person to be with her, understand her and be able to rely on, although she represses this to convince herself shes a mature individual. She was very obviously looking for that in Shinji early on, with some want for validation too, but they absolutely both failed horribly at communicating with each other.
That is exactly what happened.
She was outright rejected and hated by Toji and Kensuke, yet she didn't give a single fuck. Rei rejects her but she doesn't get too fed up over it despite her attempts at forming a friendship.
Literally all the signs point to her having some deeper attraction to Shinji compared to other guys, whether it be sexual, selfish, romantic, or emotional. Probably a bit of all 4.
No foolin'?
Toji still obviously wanted to fuck her, and she never interacted with Kensuke. And the reason she pursues Shinji before anyone else is because he is an Eva pilot and they live together. It is not odd that she would focus on him before anyone else.
And Rei is both a girl, which makes it another matter entirely, and Asuka hate her for her “dollness”.
I just realized OP is the same user in every thread who gets triggered when you point out that Asuka was trying to get in Kaji's pants at every waking moment.
EoE shows you she would have done the same for toji or anyone else. There was nothing special about Shinji.
I have no idea what the fuck you're talking about and it never ceases to amaze me how fucking whored NGE is.
She is very specifically attracted to his battlefield prowess. How couldn't she be?
She also likes that he is sensitive, because she is too. Ironically, she also hates him for being sensitive and not acting like a hotshot, because she can't bring herself to acknowledge her own sensitivity. Also it's obnoxious.
She also probably thinks he's a good looking dude.
Why are you straight up lying? The show proves all these points wrong.
>She is very specifically attracted to his battlefield prowess.
Not at all, she's specifically pissed off by it.
>She also likes that he is sensitive, because she is too.
Again, this is something she despises about him, because it's something she despises about herself.
>She also probably thinks he's a good looking dude.
She calls him plain looking when she first sees him, and then calls him ugly later in the series.
Shinji is stated to look canonically feminine, so unless you want to argue Asuka is a lesbo..
>pretending women don't sploosh when men are alpha on the battlefield
>pretending "opposites attract" is a real thing
>pretending helga g. pataki didn't also call arnold an ugly motherfucker to his face
>all these retards who self-insert into the girliest boy in the show who is a canon dicklet
Are you closet homos, or what?
>trying to insert a headcanon based off “human attraction” and how women work into a character that’s 14 years old and mentally unstable
