Lets take emotionally damaged kids and shove them bio-robots that are really just clones of elder gods infused with their mothers DNA/SOUL. What could go wrong? I am sure those kids will come out fine and have no issues.

official stance on that scene was to symbolize hate for otaku culture and poorly socialized awkward nerds, right?

I don't think SEELE ever really cared about the mental well being of the pilots.

I think my favourite part of evangelion is all the christian/western symbolism that people try to find all sorts of deep meanings behind, lol.
From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!

I don't think anyone cared about the mental well being of anyone. That series is filled with the worst people in the world who also happen to be smart enough to work at Nerv. That entire group's plan was to bring about the end of the world on their terms. They didn't care how much they damage the kids fragile minds.

I think that scene is to show that Shinji is completely tapped in the head and out of his mind at that point. It makes it more believable that he doesn't really care if he dies.

That Dota legends, that now has a western conterpart that had an ad on superbowl, was also one of the main sponsors of WEC or WCA don't remember for sure the big China tournament.

They also had at the same tournament a bigger prizepool than dota2.

i don't completely agree with this post, but i think the gist of it makes sense...
http://i.imgur.com/kqzYE7s.png
a lot of the content of eva seems reactive to tropes and expectations of the manga/anime culture of the time. i disagree with the use of "sarcastic" in this post though, that's not quite the right word. also i highly doubt a large portion of the fandom interpreted the masturbation scene as positive characterization

actually a lot of that post is blatant lies nvm

I'm no where near depressed enough to make it through the mindfuck that is Eva, so I've watched maybe 3 episodes of it, total. Also, mechas, generally, are bleh to me, characters aren't deep at all, as much as I like psychological/tragedy manga/anime, I can't stand the mecha-tropes, even Gundam.

If I want feels, I'll just watch those two scenes in FMA or read Psyren.

No idea what anime is being discussed, guess that's a good thing. Only anime of recent 5+ years I've watched was Attack on Titan & Tokyo Ghoul both good.

What if I told you those are not mechs or even robots? Also, you should keep watching at least for a while until you get to the Rei episodes. If you don't like it after those, then you can move on.

I know somewhat, what they are, but I would still classify them as a mecha just because they have "pilots" and are fight giant monsters/angels/whatever. Like I said, I'm not depressed enough to be able to handle EVA and dislike how it's presented, it isn't for me. I also don't like really convoluted plots, which I would consider EVA to fall under from everything I've heard/read. I just don't rate it high enough to spend time watching it, considering it would take 14-16 hours for the anime and then 3+ for the movies? Not worth it when I dislike the genre and have other things to watch/read.
