If you have ever watched Evangelion there was a moment at the end of the movie when him and the last angel dissapered into a bath house and nothing was shown after but may have been infered...you would have to see this to understand what im talking about...what i want to know is what all you think...Was it a gay relationship...Was it a pseudo-gay relationship...Or was it nothing at all...personally i think it was a pseudo-gay relationship...tell me what you think and why

[EDIT - Ikari's last name is Ikari, not Akari. -C]

Uh, first of all, what do you mean by "psuedo-gay relationship"? Like he was faking it with Kaworu just to make people think he was gay? That... doesn't make any sense. Please explain.

In japan its not really considered strange for people to take a bath toghter I think fans read into that scene to much.

He's not gay. He's just an otaku.

He is not gay, he just finally found someone who cares about him for who he is and dosen't push him to do thinks he relly isn't comfortable about doing. Notice that he never relly looked at the other guy in the bath. He also was not faking being gay. He was just relly good friends with a gay person.

The man can't be gay, he beat his dick to Asuka's unconscious body....He might be bisexual though, either way, it's none of my goddamn buissness.

Shinji might of been in an apparent homosexual encounter, but later events suggest it was more platonic rather than sexual. spoiler[First, Kaworu was not human, and thus it is not actually homosexual. Second, the wanking in End of Eva was designed to answer such things.] I personally believe it was more of a pure platonic love than anything else, there needs to be no sexual connotation.

The bathhouse scenes were a cheap gainex trick to get the fangirls all riled up and people question Shinji's, the biggest wimp in history, sexuality. It was just a little bit of that lackluster Gainax charm.

Not really, it's almost expected of you to get at least what Shinji's getting where I come from.
