EVA really does just keep on trucking. I was blown away two years ago when I watched the series again (and then the movies for the first time, oh god). When I first watched it, I felt more compassion towards Asuka, but the second time, I realized more about Rei and Shinji as well. The children are just so complex, each and every one of them--that you can't help but want to just hold their hands.

I really hope you'll be able to see it, it's definitely worth every penny you put into it. And when you do, please tell me!

People who put Shinji down for no good reason other than seeing him on the surface as a whiny child annoy me. He does whine quite a bit (but mostly at the beginning of the series, as far as I remember), but it's like I said--it's understandable and he's just a normal kid. If I were a normal kid and someone told me to go and sit in a robot and risk certain painful death (and mind-rape), I'd be all "uh, dude, no."

The show was a total brain-fuck, indeed. The movie moreso O_O I just felt so bad about Shinji...and then I wrote a whole essay about EVA for my final for my gender studies course.
