Eva made me realize I needed to get my life straightened out.
So I'll always love it.
Good for you, I'm more of a Gurren Lagann guy, Eva got me into psychology at least, so that's fun.
I just wish it didn't spawn a wave of pseudo-intellectual anitubers who think all anime is secretly satire
I watched it knowing they only put the Christian symbols in because they thought they looked cool.
Which they do.
Then again, I also first saw it when I was 40.
I'll never begrudge Japan for that. If anything, more people should be thinking that Christianity looks cool.
Problem being that its all in the same puddle with a load of other religions to them.
So they will be putting the coolest looking Jesus next to 4 Gnostic demons, a Hindu god, 3 Yokai, and Zeus.
Which is cool, but very offensive to a lot of people to put some of those on the same level as others. Especially the Gnostic ones.
Evangelion's biggest sin was giving people a high horse to act like they "got it" (they didn't get it).
Gurren Lagann is goated though, nice.
