Misato was a real character. She wasn't just an anime character that was predictable and only played a role for the main character. She had insane depth to her character and that fact that it's so raw and real is crazy. Like Misato feels like a real human if you ask me
Finally, a good analysis of Misato that isn't just "lol Misato's a pervert XD" She's definitely a flawed character in the way she tries to relate to people and escape her own insecurities, but I think that makes her even more interesting. I love the inner conflict between the two facades she puts up, it makes her feel that much more tragic and real.
I couldn't lay my finger on why I liked Misato so much, and I think now that it's her inner strength combined with her struggling with letting others be close to her. It's pretty relatable. Or maybe I just like the 15 different sides of herself she presents to people, :P
@@roninjoey for me, now, it's not about her complex relationships with the guys in her life, but her relationships with other women like Ritsuko and what they say about how she treats herself. There really is alot that's so interesting about her character!
I just want to give Misato a hug. Not even in a sexual or romantic type vibe way, just like a “hey, girl, you’re doing just fine and you’re gonna be okay” vibe. She deserved better :/
That opening quote is profound. Currently, after three years of sobriety, I'm liking myself quite a bit, but I don't fully understand myself, though I am gradually learning about myself and liking what I'm learning. That is exactly how I felt watching Neon Genesis and The End of Evangelion.
No great books are written about perfect people, instead they are written about flawed people. To be human is to be flawed and misato is a perfect example of how flaws can make a character real and relatable.
Misato quickly became my favorite character first time i watched Eva. This is probably true to this day. I remember i really didn’t like Asuka at first, i honestly couldn’t stand her, but now i absolutely love her. I was ignorant. This show is and always has been so fucking good. Maybe even some of the best of all time.
Thank you so much for bringing these videos back. I love your takes on Evangelion especially. It's not an exaggeration to say I've been looking forward to this video for years.
I love this so much. I've never really known why misato is my favourite character, and I still don't fully understand it, but she deserved ao much better and I love the series and her character so so much I love this video ty.
the part where he talks about how misato's father cared more for his work than for his family but deep down he still loved them (e.g: when he saved misato seconds before the second impact) reminds me of how she turned out to be like him in the rebuild movies. when ryoji was born, she felt like she couldn't be the best mother for him. so she distanced herself from him and focused more on her work, but even far apart, she still looked out for him, and wishing him the best. great video.
"you realise youve been watching for so long you relate to an aged character (Misato)" That implies many things... Also dosen't boat well with "at the time of watching eva" cause you just told on yourself, that you hated yourself...and not, at times
I'll always stand by Yui/EVA-01 being the best girl. Constantly there protecting her son, and she was obviously so good that her husband and mentor help bring about the end of the world for a chance to see her again.
I wish I had a better comment, about how well you explain Misato's character (and why she's the best lady!), but I don't have anything . Misato appreciation squad!!!
Fun fact: Sometimes I fantasize about Misato coming home drunk and beating me until I feel numb. She kicks me in the ribs until I can hardly breathe. Then she starts to cry and apologizes, begging me to forgive her. She holds me all night as I gently cry into her t-shirt. Please help is there any hope for me?
The purest definition of daddy issues. Well, the whole of Evangelion is one big conglomerate cacophony of daddy issues tbh… and i still absolutely adore it.
oh my goodness! i was pleasantly surprised to see you in my subscriptions again! welcome back and i hope you’re doing well! i didn’t realized almost four years has went by since i’ve last seen your content. time sure does fly. i’ve been craving this misato video through out the years because it was so well done! misato is my best woman and so i’m happy to find another man with such good taste :^) i absolutely adore your analysis videos and i’m looking forward to binge watching your content again! ❀.(*´◡`*)❀.
I am writing for language arts about The Characters of evangelion and this has helped me put some ideas and try to put it into my own words. thank you for this nice video. ♥
Stef I'm so glad you have reopened your old content, it's so well made and your content introduced me to evangelion which was a show that had a impact on me greatly, your content really help me through a really rough patch in my life and your content always found a way to improve it . For that I'm forever thankful to you, I hope your able to see this message Stef.
I know this is way late, but the first quote is only partially true if you relate more to characters like Kaji, because Kaji likes himself but he doesn't trust himself... or others for that matter. He needs to know because he feels you can never truly know, not even yourself.
6:08 I don't think Misato was going to do that with shinji, but i think he thought that and was scared. That may just be my hope for Misato but its still what i believe
Misato writing “attention here please!” Pointing to her “chest” is probably the fastest way to get out in jail how did she screw up that bad? It’s like she’s talking to a 20 year old frat boy rather than a lonely 14 boy.
I love Misato SO MUCH she’s like mi number 1 waifu. Most of the people see her just like a sex icon or something like that, but I think she is MUCH MORE than that: she’s, strong, brave, beautiful, intelligent... she’s such an admirable woman, and so beautiful, Misato you bright up my days
2:42 i don’t think that means 100% alcohol no😂 that would be pretty much impossible and i think it mean 100% organic or something like that in what its made of or the process or something
Thank you so much for making this! I've been waiting for a good Misato analysis for years. She's my favorite character from Eva, and has been since I first watched it. Few characters I've encountered in fiction convey concepts and themes like the ones she does, let alone convey them /well/. Something I've always loved about her is how multifaceted she is, without feeling unpredictable. She has a number of "faces"; sides to her personality, yes, but all those faces come together cohesively to create a realistic character, rather than feeling disjointed or inconsistent. That's an impressive feat. I wish more people respected her and the nuances of her character. There's definitely a lot to her if people are willing to look.
Does this mean that we're also getting a Rei analysis?
ok. Keep up the great stuff my dude.
do you like neon genesis evangelion?
sudoStef and we love you
I like your cat too.
please?
Misato was a real character. She wasn't just an anime character that was predictable and only played a role for the main character. She had insane depth to her character and that fact that it's so raw and real is crazy. Like Misato feels like a real human if you ask me
But no real human does the same thing as misato in this sad reality
@@lqf72l96 no shit we don’t have giant aliens ravaging the planet
Yep, and Asuka and Shinji feel the exact same.
@@lqf72l96 its so sad
Her death was the only one that actually made me cry
Are we getting a PenPen analysis? he has the most complicated character in NGE.
Agreed. PenPen was dank af.
+Phylicia Stevens PenPen is second best character and he should be the 6th child (animal?) and save humanity instead of shinji
PenPen would be so good in an Eva.
Penpen has such a tough life that never even said a word
Pen Pen is adorable and all, but watermelon shows more growth.
Finally, a good analysis of Misato that isn't just "lol Misato's a pervert XD"
She's definitely a flawed character in the way she tries to relate to people and escape her own insecurities, but I think that makes her even more interesting. I love the inner conflict between the two facades she puts up, it makes her feel that much more tragic and real.
She’s the other main character of the show
I couldn't lay my finger on why I liked Misato so much, and I think now that it's her inner strength combined with her struggling with letting others be close to her. It's pretty relatable. Or maybe I just like the 15 different sides of herself she presents to people, :P
I like her for one reason: Mommy
now u know damn well ur wrong. we all like her bc she fine ash and would like her to ruin our lives.p
@@RNB_lovr same lmao
I think what makes it so good is that she becomes a mother to Shinji
@@roninjoey for me, now, it's not about her complex relationships with the guys in her life, but her relationships with other women like Ritsuko and what they say about how she treats herself. There really is alot that's so interesting about her character!
I just want to give Misato a hug. Not even in a sexual or romantic type vibe way, just like a “hey, girl, you’re doing just fine and you’re gonna be okay” vibe. She deserved better :/
You could say the same for every character in this show.
Hug real ppl you know who need help, not cartoon characters that never existed
You may have a "Misato" nearby who needs it...but won't show it.
@@maverickbull1909Hug everyone
Don't mess with us misato fanboys: We have mommy issues.
fr tho holy shit
I need her bro.
It's fucking sad but is true
Always loved Misato. Immediately my favorite, and next to Asuka. She is what helped bring Shinji back from Instrumentality.
That opening quote is profound. Currently, after three years of sobriety, I'm liking myself quite a bit, but I don't fully understand myself, though I am gradually learning about myself and liking what I'm learning. That is exactly how I felt watching Neon Genesis and The End of Evangelion.
dude I've been craving for this video for the last two years
Me too
Same good thing he ok and come back
Sixty. Nine.
I crave Misato.
No great books are written about perfect people, instead they are written about flawed people. To be human is to be flawed and misato is a perfect example of how flaws can make a character real and relatable.
1st episode in, she already took me. So i dont get where her being overlooked is coming from. Best lady indeed.
Over the years I’ve come to “love Evangelion” more and more if you know what I mean
This was a great analysis of best step-mom
Misato quickly became my favorite character first time i watched Eva. This is probably true to this day. I remember i really didn’t like Asuka at first, i honestly couldn’t stand her, but now i absolutely love her. I was ignorant. This show is and always has been so fucking good. Maybe even some of the best of all time.
I was drawn to Misato from the first episode seriously that series is an absolute masterpiece!!!
The username is lowkey insane, yet so true.
She acted like a mom to Shinji especially in the rebuild films
The manga, too.
@@CDWLoweDoesn't that make her 'f l I r t a t i o n s' with him even more screwed in the head?
Misato didn't understand that Shinji didnt want to be casual about his sexuality
Thanks for bringing these videos back. I've been talking about you like a legend for years, glad to have you back.
Ah, Misato. Everyone's favourite high functioning alcoholic waifu
Uh no i've always stanned Misato, she is best girl
Thank you so much for bringing these videos back. I love your takes on Evangelion especially. It's not an exaggeration to say I've been looking forward to this video for years.
2:41 the beer can reads 100% 麦芽(malt) not alcohol
I love this so much. I've never really known why misato is my favourite character, and I still don't fully understand it, but she deserved ao much better and I love the series and her character so so much I love this video ty.
It took less than a minute to flame the shit out of Rei. Subbed. Well done.
In 1999 (I think) she was the reason I suddenly lost interest in LEGO and started liking my friends mom 😅
the part where he talks about how misato's father cared more for his work than for his family but deep down he still loved them (e.g: when he saved misato seconds before the second impact) reminds me of how she turned out to be like him in the rebuild movies. when ryoji was born, she felt like she couldn't be the best mother for him. so she distanced herself from him and focused more on her work, but even far apart, she still looked out for him, and wishing him the best. great video.

Misato undebatably best lady.
She really is best lady. This is undebatable.
I'll always stand by Yui/EVA-01 being the best girl. Constantly there protecting her son, and she was obviously so good that her husband and mentor help bring about the end of the world for a chance to see her again.
I wish I had a better comment, about how well you explain Misato's character (and why she's the best lady!), but I don't have anything . Misato appreciation squad!!!
“Shinji, you’re coming in me tonight.”
“You mean coming WITH you…”
“I KNOW WHAT I SAID!”
Yes please mommy Misato
Fun fact: Sometimes I fantasize about Misato coming home drunk and beating me until I feel numb. She kicks me in the ribs until I can hardly breathe. Then she starts to cry and apologizes, begging me to forgive her. She holds me all night as I gently cry into her t-shirt. Please help is there any hope for me?
You didn’t break into her apartment, did you?
As a medical student, soon to be doctor, i'd suggest "grass-therapy", touch some grass kid.
That's funny because sometimes I fantasize about beating up women.
But instead of apologizing, I bury their unresponsive bodies in the forest nearby.
What.
"best inanimate object" *shows Rei*
The purest definition of daddy issues.
Well, the whole of Evangelion is one big conglomerate cacophony of daddy issues tbh… and i still absolutely adore it.
Misato’s death hit me hard dude… up there with Asuka :(
nice use of the devil's trill sonata. very well placed

Thanks for making this man
that outro song gets my ovaries quaking
perfect analysis

0:00 i mean.. fuck i feel targeted.
Also, that music just instantly makes me happy and think of Misato😂 goofy upbeat alcoholic music.
There’s also an episode where Shinji’s friends call him lucky for being able to see misato at home without any masks.
i wanna watch john carpenter movies and chug beers with misato
I'm 16 but Misato is best and always has been
0:37
*R E I P L U S H*
i believe in Rei plush supremacy.
0:17 OMG NEKO NEKO 🐱
That boi is on the chonk chart
Misato 💜
I’m like the guy version of Misato. Yeah I’m a slob outside of work lol
Why analyze perfection.
1.50 the way he said more on that later got me
It's been 3 years already. Where is my Penpen analysis?
Bruh, i feel attacked from the first shot of this video.
0:00 *I LOVE MYSELF*
😭I love myself tho
6:08 I don't think Misato was going to do that with shinji, but i think he thought that and was scared. That may just be my hope for Misato but its still what i believe
I think it says 100% malt on the beer can, not ‘alcohol’;)
u n - a t t e n d e d m i n o r s
I'd let misato molest me frfr
Same bro.
I know this is really late, but what's the ending music?
Im gonna learn how to animate so I can fix the scene of her crying with shinji comforting her
Wait wait wait this guy was offline for half a decade I believe, and now you're back?????????
Misato writing “attention here please!” Pointing to her “chest” is probably the fastest way to get out in jail how did she screw up that bad? It’s like she’s talking to a 20 year old frat boy rather than a lonely 14 boy.
2:13 is that The Devil's Trill I here?
Alpine a310s never came in rhd. What’s up with that?
5:02 tis was a cannon event🗿
I love Misato SO MUCH she’s like mi number 1 waifu.
Most of the people see her just like a sex icon or something like that, but I think she is MUCH MORE than that: she’s, strong, brave, beautiful, intelligent... she’s such an admirable woman, and so beautiful, Misato you bright up my days
not even shes the perfect example of the chick who will always go back to the asshole that gave her the D
Ew
what's the name of the song in the background st the minute 5:40
Idk i love myself and love evangelion too
We’re all hedgehogs…
2:42 i don’t think that means 100% alcohol no😂 that would be pretty much impossible and i think it mean 100% organic or something like that in what its made of or the process or something
100% alcohol I think is actually toxic? 2:40 timemark
Song name at the end? Outro song?
What's the music called at 8:12
All I can say is Misato was best girl when I was 14. Misato is still best girl when I'm 34.
Whats the song at the outro
Outro song???
most relatable character (for me) hnhnfgng
That cat is THICC
The Average Rei / Asuka Fan versus the Average Misato Enjoyer.
For me it’s always been a battle between Mistato and Rei for best milf in Evangelion
Shes for the fucking streets
2:41 That's 100% malt
what's the ssong 5:38
OMG
no the beer says 100% made from malt
it makes me sad tbh
1:28 baby smoove reference (jk)
Rei
She's a 9 (could be a 10 if she didn't disappear every time I took my meds)
Misato's scar is pretty hot tbh.
Waifumeister Would you do that to a woman you child abusing scum?
wut...
When did they claim they'd cause that to someone intentionally?
GenderPranks ty for the copy paste bait
I'm... Afraid I agree. They say kissing a lady's scar demonstrates you wanna emotionally heal her soul.
Best inanimate object is Rei?
Nah its Ramiel
Ramiel is so fucking hot
Kento Kitabayashi If Ramiel wouldn't have died. Damn...the things I would've done to it

EXACTLY, but some people just see “mommy milkers” and just some other sexual stuff, when she’s SO MUCH MORE :’)
holy fuck this is the eva video i've been waiting for. misato is so underrated in the middle of that fucking rei - asuka war.
We all need a pen-pen analysis
Excellent as ever. And another bit I never considered: red and blue = purple. My god, what happened to you, Anno? ETV was truly brilliant
