The choking thing made sense to me because the entire show is filled with Anno's hangups regarding sex equaling violence.

shinji saw it in a porno, got confused

that always seemed like the most direct response to the "mecha genre" in that it sure sounds cool to gently caress up bad guys and monsters in robots but it's probably loving horrifying and scary

Even Mazinger and Getter had that kind of stuff going on. Mazinger can be a God or a Devil! The enemy will force you to make terrible decisions! Dr Hell is gonna strap civilians to a robot and make you punch them to death to stop his plans! Getter Rays are mysterious and have their own agenda and we're playing with fire by using them but we're gonna keep doing it anyway! Bad things will happen! We're all assholes and will probably die flying around in these nightmare powered murder planes!

Keeping the goals and motivations of the angels unclear is a reference to Gerry Anderson's UFO. :colbert:

It's always Ultraman and or Gerry Anderson's UFO

edit: I just watched Shin Godzilla and let me go ahead and say again that yes it is indeed always Ultraman or Gerry Anderson's UFO. Holy poo poo that movie was obscenely Anno. Good poo poo.

I mean one of the running themes of the manga is Shinji "manning up" doesn't actually make things better and his "manning up" is mostly made up of childish outbursts of anger

If you want this concept done more straight / "helpfully" to the situation, play certain Super Robot Wars games!

When I saw Rebuild 1 in a theater, there were some really obnoxious people ruining the whole thing. Worst part was during the scene where Shinji takes schoolwork to Rei’s apartment and they get tangled up and whatnot, some dude yelled, “hell yeah, CP!” and his nasty friends guffawed.

What the gently caress is wrong with people

what the hell

feels like that should get the staff to pause the movie and call them out about it or something

perhaps with a record scratch
