I think one of the more controversial issues with EVA has been the entire pseudo-religious symbolism of the
series.This is really a red herring has it makes people who concentrate on it miss what it is about.To me it’s
about coming of age and doing what the right thing is even when you want to run away and hide.
This is what Shinji continually struggles with.
That said,I really enjoy the series and the rebuild movies so far;OTOH,I probably will never watch
EOE because the cover art on the DVD was way too surreal for me.Death And Rebirth,I don’t know,from what I have read it’s rather meh.But then I haven’t seen it just recall what I have read.
Favorite character:I like Misato because when you learn her backstory you can understand why she’s
so f***ked up.Then again you have to admire someone who keeps a penguin around the house!
Though I have to say the character I’m most like is either Rei or Ritsuko’s mom Naoko. 😆
