| The moment I opened this thread I knew I’d see a heated argument, lol. Never gets old, especially when it’s between two series that are absolutely nothing alike! |

While, I did find his actions to be very questionable(Hospital Scene) in the End of Evangelion movie. I do find Shinji to be overall very relatable protagonist. Rebuild Shinji's growth is slightly more positive and actually grows to be a good person. Then, there's the manga version of Shinji. By the way, the manga version of Shinji really changed my perspective on him. This version of him is much more aggressive, apathetic, brave and badass than Shinji from EoE. He's way less perverted and horny than his anime counterpart If you take the best aspects of both EoE Shinji and Rebuild Shinji, then you put them into a one character that is in fact, the manga version of Shinji. He takes much more active role in the manga and drives the plot forward than his anime counterpart. For any people who didn't enjoy Shinji in EoE, I think you will probably love the manga version of Shinji. So basically manga's version of Shinji is like any other protagonist? Just a badass doing "hero" stuff. That could be an interesting version to see but I think anime's version might still be better. Atleast the anime version of Shinji is somewhat believable. |

Totally agree with you there. It's funny how a thread about Evangelion doesn't even have that many people talking about Evangelion. Most of the posts here are just people arguing over One Piece. |

I think anime's version of Shinji isn't better than manga version of Shinji in terms of character development and consistency. They are pretty much the same in terms of character writing, Manga Shinji takes much more active role in the plot and much more aggressive and less horny than his anime counterpart. Both are believable but with some minor changes. Edit: What makes the Manga Shinji particularly great from his anime counterpart, his motives are made much clearer through his inner monologues in chapter 1 whereas in the anime, his motives aren't clear and I don't really hooked up into him as much as I did with Manga Shinji |

I haven't read the manga so I can't say for sure, but you pointed out the fact that manga Shinji is more of a badass character and isn't always horny and depressed like anime Shinji. The problem here is that manga Shinji just sounds like any other typical battle shounen protagonist. But if the writing and development for both version is somewhat similar, I think manga version might be pretty interesting too. I'll give it a try sometime later. |

For example characters like punpun from goodnight punpun or Griffith from berserk arnt labeled as great characters cause they r brave and badass lol. It’s cause theirs actual layers to them I pretty much sure you haven't read the manga yet. Manga shinji suffers exact same problem as the anime shinji has suffered. |
| There's only so much self pity one can take while watching, until you start to get fed up with it. People have different thresholds. |

| I never had a problem with anime Shinji. I actually feel bad for the boy and people who only consider him a coward clearly didn't understand shit about his character. |
