Man, there needs to be more anime with strong male leads. I don't mean boys that act cowardish most of the time and then go batshit insane and cry and shit. I mean independent, capable, intelligent men. This is one of the reasons why I love Murakami´s works. His male characters don't just act tough, they ARE tough. They know their shit and they can handle themselves. Picture related; although I do understand that there are physical differences between men and women, his character is just plain fucking weak. He's in this badass Nerv org but is still portrayed as a typical cuntboy and baaaws and shit. I'm liking the anime so far, but everytime he cries I rage a bit. Alright, I'm done venting. I should stop taking this seriously. =(
Shinji is pretty cool for the middle portion of the story. He only goes crazy and weak during the beginning and end
Anime needs more strong male leads!
>>11286323 >Murakami´s works lawl well played
i think shinji is a pretty cool guy. eh goes crazy and weak during the beginning and end and doesnt afraid of anything.
If Shinji had a cock in his mouth for about 20 episodes, the anime would have been so much better.
>>11286350 Yes, and the 'middle portion' in NGE was the episodic angel battles. Showing his weakness wasn't as important then as it was at the beginning/end.
