>>3074425Nah, I've alwaysbeenvocal aboutmy distaste for how theyportrayed Gendo, both in theAnime and Rebuild.(Not the Manga he'sfantastic there)
Gendo's shallowness as acharacter hasgotten so blatant thateven staffmembers havementioned it.
Gendoremains a giantquestion mark throughout the first half of theseries and inthe end we'releft with noreasonable conclusionto his character.
There is no backstorysave a small scenewith Fuyutsuki and thereis noconclusion, so they had to sneak in onesentence into EoE. As if that would beenough to redeem hischaracter interms of writing.
It doesn'twork an it's just allaround bad.
You can't arguethat I have hiddenfeelings here when I justsaid earlier that I believe Fuyutsuki is themost well-writtenminor characterin Eva.He's a far bettercharacterthan Kaworu in everysense of the word.Hell Ithink even Touji is betterthan Kaworu.
But I think Gendois below allthree of them for the reasons I listed earlier.And itjust got worsein Rebuild.
The reasonI talk aboutthis and criticize Gendo isn't to bash him,but topoint outthat Anno had everyopportunity tomake him a better character and he didn't go for it.
Fuyutsuki onlyneeded anepisode anda half,they surely couldhave fleshedGendo out with all the screentime they gavehim. And theother characters as well.
They couldhave doneway more with Kaworutoo but even with those 10 minutes he's established more than Gendo is, I feel.
I know you'renot hereto have adiscussion about Eva's flaws, you're here tostir the pot and talk meta to get your waifu-relatedanger out. ButI'd at least like to make my position clear here with you since youare refusing toread my earlierposts in thethread.
/cm/ is about allthings Eva, not just Kaworu. It's not likeyour Rei threads back at /c/, we will gladly talk abouteverything.
If you havecriticism with Kaworu Iwill respect it and debate you on it, many here includingme haveshared ourhate for 3.0 Kaworu for instance.
But baitingmetashit isn't goingto do you any favors.
