first time I watched Evangelion, I was having similar social issues,
and Shinji reminded me of myself so much that I didn't even consider
hating him. Kaworu was my favorite character, and I immediately shipped
the two of them. The first time I watched it, since I was still in that
state of mind, the ending also made perfect sense to me. (TV and EoE
both) That... no longer applies. I've just recently watched it
for a third time, and now that I've started moving myself past the
point of being Shinji, he's just incredibly moe to me. Like looking
back on past version of yourself and wanting to help them get through
it, because you know they can? But he's also a teenaged boy with a
girl's voice, meaning he's cuter to me than I would ever be to myself. I
grew to love him so much this past re-watching, that he's now on my
very short list of anime characters I would actually be romantically
interested in in real life. I almost have a hard time wanting to let
Kaworu have him. I don't seek out anyone in general, so I can't
say if I'd look for guys like Shinji, but probably not... I think in
real life, they wouldn't be quite the same.
