Miyazaki/Ghibli don’t make those faces though.

Also, watch Eva.

Step 1:

I don't know who came up with this or thought it was in any way funny, entertaining or anything other than just horribly unnerving, but this needs to go. The crazy faces / reactions / small bodies / movements when a character gets upset. Don't know if it has an official name or whatever but this ain't it.

It's cheap to make

Don't watch kids shows and you won't see that.

Hmm, maybe. The robots look pretty lame compared to the Gundam ones though. Too skinny and arms too long, 3/10 design.

There's like a million Evangelions though. Where do I start?

Yeah, I figured it was just about costs.

Yes. Half of the time anime isn't an original work, but an adaptation of something else, in which case anime serves as an advertisement to the source material and usually you don't put much money into advert. Also, most of japanese writers/developers didn't aim toward audience outside of Japan until recently.

Shining Finger is G Gundam fuckin weeb.
"Mobile Suit Gundam SEED was widely popular with the public in Japan, winning numerous awards, with high sales of the series DVD and music. The character development and animation has gained praise, but similarities with previous Gundam series have drawn both comparisons and criticism from Gundam fans."

What's so controversial about this one. Also it's apparently the 9th Gundam Series, damn.

Tl;Dr: The show's first and second halves are prety much the original two Gundam series retold with different charachters but with horrible writing and that ugliest form of the early 2000's anime look imaginable.

Spoiler

The mechs look flat as hell
Fights are 99.99% stock footage
Runtime is like 25% flashbacks on top of SEVERAL DEDICATED FLASHBACK EPISODES IN A ROW at some points
The main charachter is awful

Spoiler

He's your average cookie cutter cardboard anime protag, exept he's also an asshole who cucks SEVERAL of his friends and this is portrayed as a good thing.

Also he literaly takes a nuke to the face twice and just magically survives
