If you were opposed to light reading then you wouldn't be hanging around an internet forum.

I didnt like the recognitions that much.

Why not? It was the funniest book I've ever read and had a lot of similarities with Eva. Pretty sure anno read Gaddis.

NGE is more kino literature than 90% of the canon

Rei is much better as a waifu in the manga but I think that kind of misses the point. Definitely worth reading if you liked the anime but also definitely not a replacement

I'm fairly certain most authors who ever lived would want to fuck a member of the cast. For example, Aristotle would be an Asukafag while Plato a Reifag. Diogenes, of course, would want to fuck Ramiel.

Fuck you OP I've put a purchasing stop on myself after having bought 100+ books for ~€3000 these past two years. Now it's time to actually start reading them.

It was funny in some parts I’ll give it that. I just felt like it was trying to do too much. Like I understood the theme and I didn’t need 1000 pages of it. You’re gonna hate me for this but I’d rather take Infinite Jest if we’re talking funny maximalism. The party scenes were great though.
