Nice write-up!
Personally, I can’t tell whether I disliked the anime or whether the sour taste it left was precisely the objective it aimed to achieve. I felt it just wanted to show everything bleak in our world, but after a while I felt saturated and it took me out. Also, Rei my girl, I won’t forgive the authors for your fate, I guess I’m just too soft for tragedies.
Shinji seemed a little spineless at times, which is fine as a character trait, but then it should have been acknowledged and discussed more as part of the plot I think.
I thoroughly despised Gendo since the very beginning though. The scale of modern science projects and past knowledge dwarfs individual geniuses, anyone acting superior is just indulging their ego. I’m not usually good at this, but I somehow expected how bad he would turn out to be.
