Cast from the anime "Neon Genesis Evangelion", you can even read "Evangelion" on the left side of the car.
Pretty good and influential anime movie/series, it's really worth a watch. Sincerely, please give him a greeting from me.
Although the skimpy swim suits are, well, not exactly my taste and don't do the story of the series any service.
Rei is a lot chestier than I remembered.
Just do yourself a favor and do not watch "End of Evangelion". Shit is traumatizing in so many ways. I've removed it from my head-canon.
I watched EoE and I was glad I did because it is pretty clear from the start these two episodes are going to be different. The characters are let loose from their leash, their "inner program" and reasoning can come out and be judged, not constrained by the series anymore. It also gives insight about the world, the Evas, raises questions and creates facts and opinions. I agree it is pretty forte and you'd need some media competency to be able to say "this is a show, it has an agenda and it uses these pictures to manifest it".
I really don't even think it was quite that deep. It really didn't require much "media competency". Obviously there were things beyond the surface to unpack there, like all media, my partner and I were just very uncomfortable with an underage breast popping out on screen and the underage protagonist masturbating to that. Additionally, I couldn't even count on one hand the amount of times the underage girls were nude or doing sexual acts in EoE. I don't think those pictures were necessary to manifest any greater meaning.
I agree and I also did not feel comfortable either.
But I think the scene was not for me but for the character and thus for me about the character and his motivations/ethics. It's a bit hard for me to explain as I'm no native speaker so the nuances get lost but I hope you understand.
Them being underage/teenagers cannot be changes as that's their age and necessary for plot reasons. Also, coming of age and challenging/compromising social ethics and morals while being confronted with puberty, mood swings and general "who am I" fits the character's age, personality and general theme of the whole series (as well as reality).
In addition please use spoiler tags or refrain from disclosing story elements
