It does; I just didn’t expect him to actually appreciate Shinji as a character.
Though I will say that the scene where he resists getting into the Eva is way better than I remember.

i grew up on alot of 80s and 90s child-adjacent anime so i am rather fond of how nge Does It
while its darker than what those are from the beginning it does kind of let you get into the rhythm like alot of other shows at the time before breaking that all apart. and then doing that but more

that being said its probably the closest thing to what you’re asking for that comes to the top of my mind

Shiki starts at misery and goes downhill from there, that one’s real good

highly recommend just going in blind (imo even a short synopsis ruins the experience of a clean first watch somewhat) and if you don’t click with it early just drop it

Fate/Zero as well tbh although notably that one does indeed have hype moments so maybe not as good a fit
