>>3003009>The guy is a womaniser but he is clearly shown at all points to not have a thing for young girls or Asuka in particular.I mean, if that event actually happened, shouldn't you expect some awkwardness between them, at least for a while? This sort of shit doesn't just break the plot (which is already full of all sorts of inconsistencies) but it also breaks characterisation, the supposedly (even to me) one great aspect of Evangelion.
The more I think about the series now the more it seems to be falling apart at the seams. Anno should have just left the series alone, flawed as it was. Other than the animation corrections for the home video/disc release (the original version really has a lot of garbage shots, especially later in the series), the more he "retouched"
Evangelion the worse it got.
My only consolation is that until the Rebuilds, the changes he made were mostly neutral in Rei's case.
