which doesn't go well for anyone.
It's really painful to watch, to the extent that I couldn't sit through some of the episodes all the way through without taking a break. Also, it was done in this stuttery rotoscope style which will I think most will either really love or really hate. To tie it into the earlier conversation, the main character has that same kind of whiny mealy mouthed indecisive quality as Eva's Shinji. The people who fret over him do so for no discernible reason; he's a loser. Even so, I recommend it for the thrills.

there's no sex or "onani" involved. (If there were I wouldn't be talking about it, not on this forum anyway.) At the end of the day these are middle school kids, and any thoughts they have about sex are inchoate, immature, and unrealistically idealized.
