The early episodes were a little too 'monster of the week' for my taste. But when Splitting of the Breast came out in '96, I think the show really came into its own, commercially and artistically.

No, it was just random pseudo-psychology and christian imagery over random plot.

I watched hours of frame-by-frame explanation and it only solidified my opinion.

You can put in as much shit referencing better works, that won't make your work good.

With all that said, Gigguk's abridged vids are absolute bangers.

Not really. It might've helped if I'd watched it when it was new or if the fandom weren't so far up their own asses.

Well you're on Lemmy so your odds are better than most at least.

If you're a real fan of Evangelion then name three times Gendo showed Shinji signs of affection.

We share the same mental illness

the angels shouldve been way more intelligent considering they were "evolved from a humanoid form", plus tactical methods seems to be lacking. like how in blue gender, the "insectoids" evolved to the point they had no weaknesses by the end.
