When I watched Evangelion for first (and heck, last) time, like 10 years ago, that was EXACTLY wtf I ended up thinking, at least the first and last panel's.
Now that's an unfair assessment. Evangelion was just one of those hit or miss shows. Some liked it, some didn't (self included) Honestly, people put way too much emphasis on that show because it was "deeply moving" or showed issues of "self-worth" or " self-awareness". The show was lame, Elfin lied was better
NGE is the marmite of anime: Some will think it entails highly philosophical storytelling about the human psyche and how we handle negatives emotions, the rest will think it's a giant mindfuck.

Which it really is a giant mindfuck. I gotta pay close attention to close attentions, whatever.
