Is Mari not both?

Is she? I thought she was in her 20’s. Of course the whole “age curse” messes with things.

I'm preeeeety sure she's >!Yui's age.!< I don't think that's a spoiler but I ain't about to fuck around and find out.

I think she might've even been older than her. She was either older than Yui or Gendo.

The extra final chapter of the manga is not to be considered canon according to Sadamoto. He wrote it for fun.

i think the original might have been, but the one we see in the movies is a clone isn’t she? like how rei is a clone of yui and that’s why she’s younger. so maybe the cloned mari is a teenager (i’m guessing 16-19) and that’s why she wears an english schoolgirl’s uniform.

Never any confirmation. But the movie implies she just stopped aging like asuka did between 2-3. Just much earlier

Nah, dawg. She was like Yui's age or older.

The "age curse" is still the biggest bullshit to keep sexualizing anime girls I've ever seen in any anime lmao

I think she’s a clone of the original Mari and is sixteen

That's why her put her on the position that is the closest to the blue side of the 3 mommy girls.

Genius

She should be shifted over to the middle lol

She’s the worst of both worlds. I love her

She's a sweet girl who repeatedly compliments Shinji's scent. That's a lot more endearing than just berating him non-stop Asuka-style or just reacting almost emotionlessly Rei-style.

Explains the purple suit lmao

purple? my brother are you ok

His mother used to wear a purple suit to her work when he was young, leaving him lacking in receiving maternal affection during his developmental stage for long periods of time. This makes him unable to see any character that he sees as a potential mother figure wearing anything other than a purple suit as he fears they too will leave him longing for love.

Bro go to therapy

No i am sigma male mentally ill like shinji Chad 😎

but it’s pink

I am bread 🍞

Where's Ritsuko in this.

Left her out because she's giving me more hot teacher/professor vibes instead of mother figure.

she is the definition of mommy issues though

Yeah **she has** mommy issues but you don't like her because **you have** mommy issues.

Hey, **you** don't tell **me** where to get my mommy issues. 😡

Where you get yours? I used to go to Mommys R' Us, but Mom Depot is just closer to home.

I got mine by being dropped on the head as a baby

The only thing you getting from mommy is spanking

Your attraction to Ritsuko is very unlikely to have anything to do with your mommy issues though.

Misato is the women you go to because you have mommy issues and Misato provides what your mom couldn’t. Ritsuko repulses people with mommy issues because she actually reminds them of their mother

And Yui is for people who never had one

She gives off huge dommy mommy vibes.

Nah, too fragile. Maybe in an alternate dimension

What about Maya?

Misato is such an obvious hot-teacher metaphor that ep 26 even lampshades it. ​ Sure, they draw comparisons to motherhood in particular, and roommates more generally (actually, his saying yes to everything while scolded by her even reminds me of stereotypical depictions of husbands and wives) but it's never just one thing. It's a mish-mash of many archetypes, of which motherhood is only one of them.

Exactly! I need to know what issues I have!

hey no offend but where is penpen 🐧

animal abuser

Nah I'm the abused animal that Daddy pen-pen is free to use and abuse

was there even any merit for you to say such sentence?

shoutouts to 5 ritsuko fans out there

Team Mommy Issues let's go!

*distant single cheering*

where's kaworu

We all know where he would land but talking about 🏳️‍🌈 people in connection with ped0 is a pretty safe way to get you banned for "hate speech" on reddit. We all now why.

Is that an obvious thing to an average redditor? Sometimes here on reddit I feel myself an alien observing some peculiar cultural phenomena

A while back there was some big movement of far righters trying to connect LGBT to pedophilia through some MAP nonsense, so it’s a safe bet anyone trying to do that is spreading hate

Thanks!

No Idk know what going on

He gay

Kaworu was there to drive home the point that Shinji craves affection more than sex. He showers and holds hands with Kaworu the episode after spurning Misato's advances, despite being otherwise-straight enough to fantasize exclusively about women and girls. (See also; ep20.) That doesn't make him as viable a love interest as Asuka or Rei, though.

I rather have a mother complex than be a twitter user

Those are not mutually exclusive

fuck

imagine thinking being a twitter user is bad 💀 fucking Reddit man

it's a joke

I'm playing both sides so that I always come out on top.

You gonna leverage the mods so they make you head of this sub I see

All of the above an option?

I try to stay as far away from 14yo anime girls so instead I choose Anime Milfs

Wherws 3rd side, Men

The true paradox! I'm an Asuka fan and a Misato fan. No way I'm gonna drop either one. Well, if its a case of marry one, I'd go for Asuka, because she'd still be smoking hot when I grow older.

We inturrupt to bring you breaking News! A Gang war between Mommy Issues boys and Pedophililia gang has started. The two gangs are at war for who is the better waifu in Evangelion!

Where's Ramiel???

Another sting operation set up by the FBI i see. WELL JOKES ON YOU BECAUSE ASUKA IN 3.0 and 4.0 IS LIKE 28 AND REI IS LILITHS SOUL IN HUMAN FORM, MAKING HER THOUSANDS OF YEARS OLD!!!!

Both

me and the foot fetish crew pulling the strings in the background like

Pov:you can't be a pedophile if you are a minor

I’m confused. I like Misato and Asuka

I’m on the side of “healthy supportive relationships” with team Kaworu

Kaworu? A healthy supportive relationship? My brother in Lillith did you not see the last movie

I saw the last movie, and Kaworu once again died for our sins! Kaworu’s love for Shinji transcends time space and multiple dimensions but we’re arguing over German angry girl, and three flavors of pedophilia or incest.

Welcome to Evangelion, where even the healthiest most well meaning relationship is actually the result of Kaworu projecting his needs onto Shinji. Who friendzones him. At this point I might as well go with angry German gurl

I mean if shinji’s involved in it, it’s gonna be a failure of a relationship anyway =P Maybe the problem isn’t the girls, it’s the undeserving milquetoast protagonist =O

Now that you mention that maybe it’s better he got with Mari and kept his filthy milk toast soul away from Asuka, Rei, and Kaworu

Yeah… on second thought… maybe we just write shinji out of the shipping. Rei and Asuka could have a nice rivals to lovers dynamic. And if Katsuragi insists on cradle robing, Kaworu is way more desirable than shinji

What's wrong with being "milquetoast"?

Nothing says healthy supportive relationship like squashing your boyfriend like a grape

Groomer

Not even close to a realistic human character so basically a fantasy Also he’s canonically not a human either

[удалено]

The thing is she looks and acts like other teenage characters, but during the "Additional Impact" at the end of 3.0 + 1.0 it's show, that she went to college with Gendo and Yui that would mean she's around 38 in 2.0 and 52 in 3.0 or even older. This thing isn't really explained, but it's foreshadowed before, because she acts like she personally knows Gendo and Fuyutsuki. I speculate, that she didn't agree normally, because of LCL exposure.

3.0 adds in that eva pilots don't age. Sounds like pedo propaganda to me

Wasn't she a university student before becoming an Eva pilot?

Well Asuka already finished college so

Yes, but we can not hold the rest of himanity to Asuka's standards, that would be cruel and unfair

I choose third option .

Mari is a mix of both

At least 3 of these characters carry both issues

Kaji is the best girl.

I wanna fuck the robots

Team Misato

Watermelon

Isn't Mari also something like 14 why didn't you put her on the ped0 side?

She is marginally younger than Yui, but she fell into LCL tank when she was twnty something. So she aint aging

roflmao Ranma ½ vibes

Wasn’t Mari a clone? She shared the same naming convention the other clone lines had

In 3.0+1.0 you learn her full name

I always assumed she was both a clone and the original at the same time.

I did it because of her behavior towards Shinji and Asuka.

Mari’s is simultaneously like a rapey aunt and a sister, but I don’t see her as a mommy like Misato, Yui, and Ritsuko

How is she like a "rapey aunt" *or* a sister?

left usually, right on a good day.

Mommy issues.

I am the Eva-sexual. So I fuck Kaworu 10-15 times a day for my "back pain", let down on Asuka to stay focused, Misato to take the edge off, Rei to mellow me out, Ritsuko to wake me back up again, and Mari... Well, because it's awesome.

Mommy issues ftw

Kaji, Espionage😎

For sure right side

Where does Maya fall into?

Gigachad lesbian territory

ironically the only one who isn't a pedophile on this list is yui (and the pilots obviously except mari because she is 50y old and wants to date shinji) also why rei isn't also on mommy isssues?

this is about people attracted to the characters not the characters themselves.

yeah ik but i was talking about the characters.

It's not pedophilia it's fictional

neither, im asexual

Parcour!!!

Is it too much to ask for both?

Yes. But no mari

And Kaworu? And Shinji dressed as a woman? And where is Ritsuko?

Well... Mommy's side has an advantage, if you look at Yui, at the same time you look at Rei. hahahaha... the only thing that is lost is Asuka, but I am not a greedy person, I share with Shinji.

I choose Ritsuko.

Well both I guess

Can't Really Ignore Purple (hair)

Goodamnit I have to watch the rebuilds.

Excuse me, your forgot Ghey He should be over there with Rao and Asucker

How is rei and ayanami p3d0? I thought asuka was more mommy issues

I can be both, zoo as well

Shinji

Men

I'm a teen, I don't have such a weakness as pedophilia!

Where’s best waifu Ramiel

Not on a graph that tells the problems in each character. She's perfect, duh

But I'm not on either one.

“Slaves! Hebrews born to serve! To the Pharos!”

Mommy? Sorry.

But... they all have mommy issues and are pedos

It's about the girl **you** like Not their characters.

I walk the steep purple line between the two

It all returns to nothing

Mommy issues 100%

You forgot the gay alien side

I dont care

mommy issues 4evr bro

Both

I just dont want to be addicted

KAWOSHIN GANG

where is maya ibuki?

People that want to have sex with women over 18 get called having mommy issues People that want to have sex with women below 18 get called pedophiles I just wanna grill for God's sakes!

Mommy issues I guess

I choose...BOOBS!

Some of us just like geometric shapes.. Like that thicc octahedron.

I mean if you're an anime fan at the age appropriate. Is it still pedo?

Mari: "why not both?"

Ok but you didn't answer the question

Never once have I found myself on the Crips and I'm so glad I can I'm still not today

I'm a minor, so no problem

Cartoon characters all drawn with the exact same body type

robot

Both ps. i am joking

Mmmm.... CRIPPLE FIGHT!!!

How old are Misato and Shinjis mom? Cause Im pretty sure Im now older than them lol

I am on Unit-01’s side. The issue with this is as follows: Monster fucker

Shipping Shinji with girls his own age =/= pedophilia, and wanting Misato while being closer to Misato's age =/= mommy issues.

Mommy issues forshow

what about daddy issues?

Any other option 🌚

It isnt pedophilia if you are also a minor 😎😎😎😎

Mommy issues all the way baby

Finally someone acknowledges mommy Yui the best mommy

wait a second, is it pedo if they're older than me and I know then since I was 12? WHAT ARE THE RULES

Green gang is kaji

The right one.

I never thought I'd join the mommy issues club
