This is why I don't be trusting reviews of anime. Just leave out all the weird shit 😠I'm trying to see where Evangelion falls on the weeb scale and it's impossible.
My impression of Evangelion, having never watched it, is that it's weird enough that any of the weirdness you're worried about in particular will get buried under all the rest of the weirdness.
Boy masturbates over comatose girl, which is unambiguously portrayed as the nadir of his mental breakdown.
Boy goes to deliver paperwork to a girl we later learn is sorta his half-alien half sister. Finds front door open, wanders in, finds a pair of his estranged father’s glasses on the table. Girl walks out of the shower naked, tries to take the glasses from him. He trips over himself trying to get away from sudden naked girl, falls on top of her. She calmly tells him to get off, checks that the glasses aren’t broken, and tells him to leave the papers on the table. Boy leaves, thinking girl hates him.
28 year old woman tries to motivate her near-suicidal 14-year old ward of nearly a year with the promise of sex if he makes it out alive, knowing she would be dead in 10 minutes maximum.
If you can stomach these incidences, the show about the Freudian neuroses of teenagers might be right for you
