I’m calling BS on this. There’s no way that any Evangelion movie would be anyone’s favorite movie.

I've never seen the movie or any part of the Evangelion franchise, but it's really highly regarded. The End of Evangelion has a 90% on Rotten Tomatoes based on 10 reviews, and is regularly listed as one of the best anime movies of all time. A lot of movie-adjacent people like it. Wes Anderson, for example, considered it one of the 10 best animated movies ever. On Letterboxd it's the 22nd highest rated movie and 6% of people that have watched it call it one of their favourite movies.

The internet is skewed towards introverts, and anime skews introverted.

What's interesting is that introverts from Western nations prefer even live action Japanese films. Why do Western introverts like Japan, not just anime, but food, culture, language, live action film, music, clothing, history, and social values?

I just meant like, they’re all a horrible retelling of the last couple episodes. Like why?
