[Are] you and your coworker planning on watching the third Madoka movie rebellion or the Rebild of Evangelions?
Nope! I'm moving from the Kyoto area in only a few weeks, so we don't really have time. That said, I don't feel that strongly about Rebellion or the Rebuilds. I feel EoE and Episode 12 were magnificent endings and almost deserve to not be followed up on.
It was his first time watching both. My... sixth(?) time watching Eva, and my first time going through PMMM.
For me, that character brokenness is why I keep returning to Evangelion. I change my opinion every time I go through the series. This most recent time, I started to really hate Shinji. I've "defended" him in the past, pointing to just how crazy his situation was. While that's true, I started thinking more about how Asuka was in an identical situation, and how she makes the turn toward recovery in those last few scenes, becomes the moral center of the show. Her utter frustration with Shinji while they were in the dreamscape, that he's groping around for support from anyone, even someone he knows is even worse off than him, really connected with me this time.
Asuka might be my #1 character originating from a television program.

Yes another supporter of Asuka.
