Evangelion is not a battle mech anime. If you started the series with that misconception I'm sorry but you got tricked. Evangelion is a slice of life anime about shinji ikari, and to think otherwise is to miss the point entirely. Also like I stated in my previous post you're not suppose to like any characters. In fact you're suppose to despise them completely. Evangelion characters arn't something you should get attached or personal about. It's like a freak show, you watch it simply because it's weird and disgusting. As for character depth that *teaspoon* of depth is far superior than most anime out there today like bleach and naruto which are full of characters with personality flat like a piece of paper. And the director's intention is to show other people how he got out of depression. So if you don't think Evangelion is relatable at all then good for you, you're mentally sound.Khitten said:-snip-
Back on topic Basilisk the anime also have some pretty wtf moment when the characters are pulling off crazy ninja skills. Gunbuster 2: Diebuster is also full of wtf moments like when the girl splits Jupiter in half.
