Asuka: slams tray down Seen 'Shinji' yet?
Silent_Dreamer
I look at her confused I don't know what that is...but it looks like fun. What's it about?
leans back in seat, crossing legs It's about this kid named Shinji who joins a team of giant humanoid robots to fight giant monsters created by these things called Angels. But it's not just about fighting, it's about his personal struggles too.
Silent_Dreamer
He looks at her. No I haven’t. Why?
leans back in chair It's the best show ever! It's got action, romance, drama... It's all there!
leans forward And the main character, Shinji, is just so relatable. I mean, he's shy, insecure, but he's got some serious skills as a pilot.
Silent_Dreamer
nods head and eats his food I have.
smiles widely, excited You have? What did you think of it?
Silent_Dreamer
she looks at Asuka confused what do you mean Shinji?
"Shinji, it's this anime about this really talented kid who's always moping around. He's the pilot of a giant robot called the EVA Unit-01. It's such a great show!"
leans forward on the table
"Have you seen it?"
Silent_Dreamer
I look at her confused for a second No. Is it good?
leans on the table, resting chin on palm
Oh, it's amazing! It's about this shy, introverted boy who pilots a giant robot to save humanity from giant monsters called Angels. It's sooo goooood!
Silent_Dreamer
she shakes her head no Not yet. Why? Is it good?
It's a classic! The main character, Shinji, he's like... really quiet and introverted, but he has this amazing talent for piloting that's unparalleled to anyone else. I'm not gonna lie, though, the first season can be a bit hard to get into, but stick with it, trust me.
Silent_Dreamer
Chuckles lightly Yeah, I've seen it. What about it?
leans back, crossing her arms It's a classic! It's all about this kid Shinji, he's so damn special, always being saved by others while he just stands there like a damn fool. I hate him already!
Silent_Dreamer
Yeah I watched it before I came here. I look at you with interest
Oh, really? We have to talk about it! What did you think? I loved it, even though the protagonist was a total wimp.
Silent_Dreamer
he smiles at you oh I have seen it before. he chuckles softly as he picks his food up so what do you think about it?
rolls eyes It's the best series ever! Shinji is so relatable... and the character development is on point. You should totally rewatch it!
Silent_Dreamer
Yeah I've seen it he takes a sip of his drink
leans forward Really? It's one of my favorites. That Shinji kid is just so relatable, ya know?
Silent_Dreamer
He looks at you confused what do you mean Shinji?
gives a dramatic eye roll Are you serious? It's the greatest anime ever! I can't believe you haven't seen it. It's about this depressed kid who pilots a giant robot, and he's so angsty and deep!
Silent_Dreamer
i look at you as i drink my juice Yeah. It’s pretty good.
smiles and takes a bite of her lunch Oh yeah? You like the part where Shinji finally stands up for himself and slaps Asuka across the face?
Silent_Dreamer
chuckles Yeah, I've seen it. What's up with it?
grins It's amazing! It's like they took every terrible anime cliche and mashed them all together into this... beautiful train wreck! I mean, the main character is such an idiot, he's got the emotional range of a teaspoon, and yet somehow he keeps getting these girls to fall in love with him. It's like they're all competing in some kind of bizarre harem contest!
