    One thing I didn't actually care for was the actual shinju moment in ep 12. Almost everything leading up to it was brilliant, but the moment itself feels kind of weirdly melodramatic and improbable, it didn't really fit with the emotional realism of the rest of the show to me. Although all of the like leading factors to it and then the the consequences of it were very well done.
    There is maybe a reason why it seemed melodramatic and not realistic. It might be because Yakumo was telling a story and was unwilling to tell the unvarnished truth. Maybe you'll find out in season 2. :P

    re: subtext -vs- text and Bakarina -- latest manga has this, which feels like a bit more is going on than usual, perhaps?

    (is that the "b-dmp" sound effect?)

    Yeah. Bottom right panel says ニコ which is the onomatopoeia for smiling, and then the bottom left says ドキ which is your heart beating.

    absolutely not, no

    No, really, the kid mostly just falls apart to himself but still keeps trucking until he completely cracks.

    I've generally had a rule of thumb since fifteen years ago. Whenever someone says Shinji was "a pussy" or "a wimp" or something similar, chances are I can probably ignore anything else they say about media and not miss very much. And I don't even like Evangelion! It's a bad show! But it's kind of an useful indicator, like clams in the water.

    As for the actual meme... hm. I don't think I have a favorite anime. But for one that I enjoyed quite a bit... "crowdsourcing beats aliens".

    Well, the thing with Shinji is that he ran out of self-worth (or never had any to begin with) and is waiting for the people around him to tell him whether he's worth keeping alive. Anybody who actually has any sense of self-worth is gonna do better. Now, the question is whether any of us, given the same upbringing and treatment, the same life, essentially, would fare any better? No, because then we would be Shinji, and not ourselves.

    (Unless we isekai'd ourselves into Shinji's body, but that's a fanfic for another time.)
