At least Misato is a grown ass woman

Yeah, automatically less problematic than every other main femme character

I don’t consider the movie canon

I kid, I forgot about it. But, I meant it more about the weird “waifu” thing

The manaquin is of a character who recruits young children to fight in a war under merciless conditions.

::: Spoilers for Evangelion

The war turns out to be unecessary and largely driven my one maniac's unchecked lust for power.

Was it power? I thought Gendo was trying to bring his wife back to life and didnt care about anything else.

Friendly reminder that the army is made up of terminally online shit-posters that are just like you. There’s entire subreddits/facebook groups dedicated to military memes.

Uh, I'm not a literal foot soldier for imperialism, so they aren't just like me. Fuck the Troops

[–] Pandantic@midwest.social 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

No, but you are the stage before Misato convinces him to take the plunge.

Wow, they post memes about drone striking weddings, they're just like me fr fr! :so-true:

...I've just heard some bad news about the tone of their wedding drone strike memes.

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 12 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Yeah it's really funny to go troll them from time to time they're some of the most emotional and easily baited on the internet. They all have exactly the same insecurities.

Are teenagers in 2024 still horny for everyone's favorite loser wine aunt?

Horniness for Misato is a neverending affliction.

[–] Sinistar@hexbear.net 19 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I don't want to fix her, I want her to break me.

[–] Mokey@hexbear.net 16 points 2 years ago

Military people are your age now, they like anime, the demographics of anime cons line up with their recruiting goals. That's why they are there.

They didnt hire a Misato cosplayer, they had a cool rotating selfie booth because the army has infinite murder money and can use it on whatever and this person probably just wanted to use it.

It's times like this I wish the military would just do the efficient and more humane thing and just build an actual meat grinder and just funnel new recruits straight into it; that way they still recycle the human trash without killing a whole bunch of strangers in a foreign country.
