u can tell this is AI cause Gendo has a wholesome smile

[anti]

Love the idea of Lilith being part of a cast like hanging around the apartment

[cafesportivo]

Shinji: “hey mom, I’m home!”
Rei, Misato, and Unit 01 simultaneously: “hey!”
*all look at each other confused as a laugh track plays*

[Overlordough]

"Get in the robot Shinji!"
"But
"No buts, nuts, or coconuts young man!"

[degocraft]

*the Hospital scene happens*
*laugh track intensifies*

[Silent_Library]

Love how normal everything is and then L I L I T H

[Maximilian_Blazkowicz]

"Get In The Freaking Robot Shinji!"
Audience: 😂😂😂😂

[breddie_is_rookie]

Rei smiled in this more than she ever did in the entire franchise

[nicov]

Actually burst out laughing at Lilith just being some dude covered in slime

[corbinmarkey]

Damn I was waiting on Kaji. You know that every time he walks into the scene, the whole audience would go,

[KajuKajuKatli]

Unpopular opinion but Mads Mikkelsen as Gendo honestly made the show, elevated it from a sitcom to the show of all time.

"Shinji."


Shinji puts his book down.
"Yeah?"


"... Why aren't you in the EVA?"
Gendo asks with crossed arms.

"... Because uh.... uh..."
[Short laugh track]
"I... have a math test today.
[Laugh track]

"... A math test."
Gendo replies sternly.
[Laugh track]

"Yeah, a math test!"

"Shinji there's an Angel attacking the city and your concern is how many apples Adam has?!"
[Laugh track]

"I'm not the only pilot, why can't Rei pilot it??"

"BECAUSE SHE'S IN A WHEELCHAIR!"
[Laugh track]

"... She won't be jumping inside of the robot will she?"
[Long laugh track]

Gendo facepalms.

[Even longer laugh track]

"Why are you so insistent on sending me to battle some giant monster?? I'm your SON!"

"Sadly."
Gendo mumbles.
[Laugh track]

"Wha-?"

"Look, Shinji... It will be quick, and simple. Just get in, shoot the Angel in the face, get out."
[Short laugh track]

"You said the same thing when I first got into the robot and I almost died."
[Laugh track]

"Because you were an idiot back then! You're... less of an idiot now!"
[Laugh track]

".... Why is the nicest thing you've told me all day?"
[Long laugh track]

"Shinji, listen."
Gendo takes a seat next to his son on the couch.
"I know it can be difficult, alright? I've been there too. You've got to... face challenges to succeed in life."

"... Did YOUR father make you climb into a giant robot and fight for your life?"
[Short laugh track]

"... Heee taught me how to chop wood. With an axe."
[Short laugh track.]
"That's dangerous stuff."
[Long laugh track.]

"Look I..."
Shinji gets up.
"I gotta think ok?"
And so he storms off.

"AW COME ON, JUST GET IN THE EVA!"

"NO!"
Shinji yells from another room.
[Laugh track]

Gendo sighs in defeat.
"... She won't be jumping in the robot..."
[Laugh track and applause]

[rad]

Shinji: "I got an A on my test!"

Everyone: "Congratulations!"

[Psychoholic_]

Kaworu looks like he is from an early 2000s disney sitcom

[NarffetWerlz]

I hate those awkward moments when you're trying to get something from the fridge and your Eva unit is there to lecture you on your grades. Very relatable.

[Gensis]

Gendo got no reason to be smiling like that 💀

[kylehatespotatoest]

I remember this show coming on when I was younger. The show ended up being cancelled due to backlash from a joke in a hospital scene. It was a good show, I'd highly recommend

[swindlesmccoop]

Misato was honestly the most realistic one

[Scrofar]

What a classic. I used to watch this with my mom all the time. Miss hanging out with her. She was a doll! When I told her I wanted to be a pilot because of this show, she supported me all the way through. Love you, mom!

[settekwan]

Love the season finale where they all took a family trip to the Fanta factory.
