I had been a lot of anime and gaming forums and in just this forum alone, I realized that not all of peo;le hate characters like Shinji. They often accuse Shinji of being, not being badass, not getting the girl or even being a greatest pilot ever. Shinji can correctly be described as a boy who will never become a shonen star. It is not only limited to Shinji Ikari but mostly characters who even show the tiniest bit of angst, they get attacked for being "whiney" especially when the have a legitimate excuse to whine and complain. What is interesting is that contrary to popular belief, these characters don't really complain a lot and they don't even angst that much in the show. Why do people always seem to hate the angsty characters?
