What was your favorite part? The part where Asuka forces Shinji to wear her girl-shaped plug suit? Or later they have to "synchronize" or whatever and that involves shinji wearing asuka's clothes. What about the part towards the end where shinji falls in love with a boy? What about that minute long shot of shinji being cuckolded by misato?

What about in eoe when the giant ugly bastard they have crucified in the basement absorbs rei and transforms into her? Then the numerous shots of men and women merging together into an undifferentiated ooze and then the giant rei homunculus forms into a male to appeal to shinji, then slowly penetrates his eva with a spike while the core of it turns into a vagina? Did you like that part?

The entire show is themed around identity crisis. If you don't understand why a trans person might like it, maybe try watching it again with your eyes open.

Recently saw it, thought it was incredible

Saw it when it was new, thought it was mediocre then, still do.

Half of Evangelion's success can be attributed to it going up against Gundam Wing.
