Since when did Asuka become the most popular Eva girl?

Around 2002-2004 when the tsundere boom took off and she was re-examined in that light.

She pretty much created that character type though. It was a bunch of series trying to make their own Asuka.

I am pretty sure at the time, Anno was just trying to make Pipi Longstockings, but anime. That is, powerful and aggressive red haired western Tomboy. Her first appearance is even in a sundress with her hands by her sides, ala the typical tomboy portrayal. People forget Asuka is German-American-Japanese mix so she's supposed to be this brash American tomboy talking mad shit to the more Japanese Shinji.

So it's funny how things loop around. Anno took a character type from western media, remixed it, and then it became an almost stereotypical "Japanese anime" character.

I don't know which is worse, the foot fetishism or the slop.

I cannot even imagine typing out something this embarrassingly naive. I would tell you to watch more anime but you might be hopeless.

Read a book nigger or ask a Japanese otaku from the 90s (you wont because you're a EOP) he's basically correct
