girls don't actually ask you to kiss them out of the blueright?
>>285233490Only if you're a chad
In highschool? Yeah. Highschoolers are awkward, dumb, impulsive, and are constantly trying stuff out because they get a little bit of freedom. While I don't expect it to dominate the conversation for all these highschool romcoms and romdroms, it's refreshing to see stuff like Say I love You or the far more extreme Scum's Wish just kinda go for it.
>>285233490I also want to kiss Asuka
>>285233490Only when you look like picrel
>>285233683does this look like a chad to you?
>>285233490Happened to me in college
>>285234077I don't think the sad boy kicked puppy routine works these days though
>>285233490shes not asking to, shes asking if he wants to
Shinji is a survivor of sexual violence
>>285233490Depends if they had a competent father figure.
>>285234780You know what they say about girls with daddy issues
>>285234607Imagine being sexually harassed so hard by Asuka that you die.I wish that were me.
>>285234607He is a lucky kid
>>285235867More like being sexually harassed by Asuka so much that you kill her
>>285233490No, this is a male fantasy
>>285236002Not really. This is asuka at one of her lowest moments. She suggests something bold, hoping to get any amount of sympathy or affection in return, but shinji just freezes up. That's why she freaks out on him and leaves after. It wasn't enjoyable or fulfilling for either of them
>>285236159Something that I've seen pretty much no one ever bring up that Misato does the exact same thing to Kaji in the scene directly priorShe gets dragged into a kiss, puts her arms up but hesitates and doesn't embrace himAnno seemed to really like that kind of parallel storytelling throughout the show, where a set of circumstances or imagery is repeated with different members of the cast to highlight their similarities AND differences in how they handle them
>>285236159アスカはなぜ、シンジとキスしようとしたのか？それは加持に対する一種のあてつけともとれるが、その意味はわからない。いづれにしても、シンジにとってこの事件は、後を引くことがなかったのは確かである。>Why did Asuka decide to kiss Shinji? It was done out of spite in regards to Kaji, even if she didn't know the reason herself. In any case, it is clear the situation left no lingering effects on Shinji.>In any case, it is clear the situation left no lingering effects on Shinji.
>>285236403why does misato even hate kaijithe worst thing he did was be flirty to other girls after they already broke up
>>285236466>In any case, it is clear the situation left no lingering effects on Shinji.dude probably thought he got off easy for not being hit or mocked in the process
>>285236500She straight up explains that it's because he reminds her of her father, which makes her using the guy as a flesh dildo a little concerning
>>285236466why do you braindead faggots post shit like this instead of analyzing and discussing the work on its own meritshave you never heard of the death of the authordo you even know who wrote that or when it was writtendo you know their role in the production of the work why do you even carewhy do you deliberately kill discussion with the most low iq shit ever
>>285234104Yes, Shinji got to be a chad for five minutes.
>>285236592Anno and co. have actually mostly refused to give concrete explanations to anything in the series, the TV guides are mostly unofficial and the rare official supplementary material (like the trading card game) mostly just relay information that was already shown explicitly onscreen
>>285233490No zoomer women hate sex unless it is with Tinder chad or their boss to get a promotion. t. zoomer
kiss Asuka's feet
>>285236636is this why he made every character in the eva rebuilds a walking exposition piece that just plainly stated their feelings with no ambiguity in one scene of dialogue?
>>285236466>>285235956I don't know whty people keep replying to this autistic Reifaghttps://desuarchive.org/a/search/text/Why%20did%20Asuka%20decide%20to%20kiss%20Shinji/The funny thing was this first posted by a different schizo
>>285236674yes, because the rebuilds were a soulless, directionless cashgrab to fund the shit he actually wanted to makelike shin ultraman and shin godzilla
>>285233490>do you want to kiss my feet
>>285236699shin godzilla is fucking god tier so I forgive himeva was already perfect anywayI just wish he didn't poison the well of discussion of the franchise with those shit moviesat least he didn't fuck up the original like george lucas
>>285236466>>285236159I feel so bad for Shinji here
>>285236724The rebuilds arent that bad. Focusing on Gendo at the end was a good idea, and movie 2 is very well animated, it's good fanservice.
>>285236724just remember that Anno was actually essentially a producer for those movies, not a director or writerTsurumaki was mostly the one in control, until Anno stormed into the studio and had the entire movie rewritten and restarted over and over again for like a decade, that isIt was essentially a consequence of letting other people handle the project but then micromanaging and exhausting those same people anyway, simply reading the -120 min prequel manga to 3.0 written by Tsurumaki you can instantly notice radically different characterization for both Asuka and Mari compared to what was in the final productIt's actually kinda funny how 17 pages manage to flesh both of them out more than an entire feature length movie
>>285236810I can't enjoy fanservice when the characters themselves are so hollowthey don't even feel like the same peoplethe style of the rebuilds is just bad and riddled with ugly cgigendo's scene at the end of 4 was just another dump of him explaining all his issues as bluntly as possible when the whole appeal of eva was everyone being written like a real person with real problems
>>285236703I would cause an impact just to get such an offer
>>285236899Misato went from being a complex and very well-written character to appearing twice and firing a giant laser, I'll never forgive Anno for that.
>>285236777If he had the courage to lick Asuka's nipples raw, the world could have been saved
>>285237330That happened to the whole cast
>>285237330She ejected the samples Kaji collected for a space ark and weaponized it instead of raising their son. Then everybody was talking about honoring sacrifice?
>>285236777
>>285233490She was feeling worthless after being rejected by Kaji, so wanted to feel like someone wanted her
>>285236627Sad but true, high point of Shinji's entire life was that small time there before brutal reality kicked in
>>285233490crazy german red heads definitely will
>>285240722And she was accomplishing this by leaving a date with a hot older student who went to the trouble of coercing his classmate's little sister to meet her, only to come home to a guy that, to her knowledge, had zero interest in her whatsoever?
>>285240894shinji is a pilot, a peer, and more importantly one that's helped her out when she's in trouble in the past. these aren't things she'd be willing to articulate even to herself but she values his attention more than randos.
>>285240894Asuka likes shinji. Her fiery behavior is because lashing out is an easy defense mechanism over admitting her vulnerable feelings, and because she thinks it's cowardly that he's incapable of admitting his own.
>>285241113
>>285233490>>>/r9k/
>>285233490Dunno what game it was I think it was one of the Sega Saturn games where you (playing as Shinji) can choose to try to rape Asuka and she ends up knocking Shinji telling him to at least take her on a date first
>>285233490
>>285236636He only makes shit up as he goes
>>285241513I never got the feeling he liked Asuka the best as he claims here, I do think the "Rei is the most popular in Japan by far" part is true tho
>>285241571>I never got the feeling he liked Asuka the best as he claims hereShe essentially became the deuteragonist from the very second she was introduced, displacing Misato partially and Rei almost entirely
>>285241479excuse me but i dont remember any mexican in eva, these burgers make no sense.
>>285241274Actually, Asuka has a crush on being the kind of mature, independent woman that would be able to attract KajiShe essentially barely knows the guy
>>285241479>Mexican style Shinji Burger Based
>>285241571>I never got the feeling he liked Asuka the best as he claims hereShe was a seasonal waifu, you can tell the tone and focus of the show shifted for a few episodes after her introduction. Things pretty much devolved into a generic show with slapstick comedy and motw formula. You can also tell when Anno lost interest in her and eva went back to the original tone.>>285241797Asuka is actually completely irrelevant.
>>285242261>Asuka is actually completely irrelevant.she has the most screentime of any character that isn't Shinji, beating even Misatohalf of EoE is about her
>>285242387Asuka gobbles up screentime, but that's about it. Her character has no meaningful impact on the plot and events, she's literally just there, that's why it was so easy to have mari replace her.
>>285242500>the plot and eventsquite literally the least important thing about eva
>>285233490Why are there so many threads about this scene? Eva has other stuff to talk about.
>>285236403
>>285236636This is why the idea that the religious stuff was added to "look cool" is bs. There are too many connections between catholic social teaching and the main themes of Eva.
>>285241571Rei feet are a little mid but her sockies smell good still, especially when the day is at an end
>>285233490>"Sure">*Proceeds to kiss her on the forehead, then does a 360 and walks away*
>>285241571>>285244136absolutely mogged
>watch eva at 15This is overrated>rewatch eva at 25KINOOOOOOOOOOOAnyone else? It became my favourite series on rewatch.
>>285244024many of the show's target audience wish they could kiss a pretty girl, but can't
>>285244525
>>285244525Excessive pride can lead to arrogance
>>285233490Kiss no but I've been asked for hugs by girls before, some of them I barely even knew
>>285233490Yes and they asked me more intense stuff tho.>>285233683But I'm not one.
>Forces a kiss on Shinji>Gets back at Asuka by cooming all over her in the hospital>They hatefuck in the instrumentality hell>Asuka leg kabedon Shinjfag in the train demanding he's only for hers alone>They never become an official couple>Would probably perpetually hate but want to fuck each other
>>285247212she was way more upset about him being a pussy who won't open up than about the jacking off
>>285233490Some girl was doing the mistletoe kiss thing at school, She chased me while I ran away
why aren't you holding her /a/?
>>2852474342015 was 11 years ago...
>>285233490a girl did it with me when I was like 9.That was the only kiss I ever had(I'm now 40)
>>285247332She wanted passion and saw Kaji being passionate. She fell in love with a handsom older man with expreince and tried in her own broken way to force Shinji out of his shell.
>>285234607Misato didn't go far enough
>>285236540If that's the case she should've gone full steam ahead on using Shinji for that purpose.
>>285248820She tried, he got the ick
>>285247707Kaji was a bit of a letch if we're being honest, that man was hitting on anything that moved and was female except Asuka lmao
>>285249095I'm pretty sure he was just teasing them, especially for Misato, because Misato was acting tsundere.
>>285234216Hasn't since the 00s. I hate women so much (undeserved)
>>285244525This >>285236660 scene should've been canon
