WELP I’D ABSOLUTELY FORGOTTEN TO POST THE KAWORU TO THE SHINJI I DREW BEFORE GOING TO SEE 3.0+1.0
I’m also reposting the Shinji version bc I don’t want him to be lonely~

I saw the last EVA movie last week, and drew this boy before that.
I’ve been extremely unproductive, and with very low energy. I feel depressed tbh, and I don’t blame Anno for taking SO LONG to finish his movies if he’s constantly dealing with this kind of mindset.
Don’t worry about me tho, I have an upcoming therapist appointment, and hopefully will resume therapy as well.
Anyway. I love EVA a lot. The last movie is good. I cried much. I love you, Shinji ♥

(The translations might be a little vague because I ended up using DeepL, but I’ve confirmed with other speakers that the sentiments are accurate)
It’s too early to bring this up now but I need to ‘cause westerners love to spread the notion that japanese anime fans (especially minorities and allies/including fujoshi/fundashi) are a monolith and don’t ever get upset at how their characters are portrayed/sidelined in media and milked and used as bait for money; here are a few opinions I came across, by actual native japanese people, complaining about Shin Eva’s treatment of their LGBT-coded characters. I also watched the film in theaters.
Do have in mind that on social media, negative opinions (by japanese people) are scarce, one of the reasons being that a chunk of the jpn eva fandom is a cult that doesn’t allow for criticism of the movies and fans fear being harassed off if they speak up about the problematic aspects of it. Nobody will ever come forward, publically, **as a minority** and talk about how this movie hurts them. So don’t assume that even those who positively reviewed/enjoyed it it didn’t have their own gripes with it (especially if they’re popular fan artists + women). They might be trying to stay polite or fear being bullied to hell for expressing their negative impressions of it.

Bro this movie is driving me up the wall, It just hit me that the lady next to Yui was practically confirmed to be Mari in 3.0+1.0…. Imagine she helped them change Shinji’s dirty nappies or something?! I’m not strong enough for this one
