Yes, he made it abundantly clear (insultingly so) that he wants otaku to grow up. But he needs to grow up too. He's still mentally trapped as a pretentious teen who thinks his insight is so extraordinary that it needs to be made explicit in the last 2 episodes or the last half hour of his film for his audience of lemmings to understand. "Move beyond childish things-show some bravery" is not a revolutionary statement. Get over yourself, grow up, and trust the audience to be able to understand this. Stop thinking you're this precocious little child that is oh so deep. You had 24 episodes and 5 movies to make this clear.Drop the mumbo jumbo retardation of the spears. You don't even know what the mystery of Golgotha is. It's all aesthetic for Anno. Stop being a fag and if you want the audience to have closure why didn't you make Shinji save Asuka like pic rel? You finally give the audience's self insert a "chad" moment and it's made completely worthless the next film. What happened to le heckin' bravery? Then you turn Shinji into Simon the Driller in the fourth film just to make the fictional world that entranced you into the same mundane reality. Fuck you twat. You never grew up. Just old.

trying to be "normal" and coming to the conclusion it will fix your unhappiness is just a typical conclusion a lot of (otaku) people have. And with this "great epiphany" they feel an egotistical need to validate it by forcing it on others under the guise of moralityBut it doesn't address or try to reconcile your incompatibility with the society you ran away from in the first place. So you just end up at the opposite side of naive.
>>282953893Pretty much. And turning into a salary man isn't going to help shit. Real happiness as an adult is going to involve sexual chemistry from the other gender. Nhk sort of understood this even if they came to the same retarded conclusion of "just get a job bro"
>>282953169Anno is literally a free mason and all of EoE is just free mason believes but in japanese anime form
>>282954098I didn't get that impression at all
>>282953169I like this ship, what anime should I watch to fill gaping abyss of emptiness the final movie left me with?
>>282953169Why do redditors come here and post stuff like this? Do they not allow it there?
>>282954894You should watch Eureka Seven, similar dynamic between the two leads
