	109	Misato approaches Shinji without hesitation. Misato:“You know, it may seem easy to go along with whatever anyone else wants, but if you get into the Eva with that attitude, you'll get killed!!” Shinji turns his face away slightly. Shinji:“That's okay with me.” Misato is irritated by Shinji's reply.	Mr. Tines: Now he's pretty much turning his back on her. Now, I know that being a 14-year-old male means that you're going to be a jerk whatever ("I Was a Teenage …"), but there are times and places. Nerv health insurance sure doesn't include counselling. He ought to be off down the MO* tout suite; as it is, he gets Catch 22'd. Reichu: The lack of counselling probably reflects common Japanese attitudes (at least, as I understand them) about such things around the time this was made. OMF: He doesn't seem to care if he lives or dies. Death would only release him from his purgatorial conscription. He still has no motivation for piloting, or indeed living. Reichu: Yet he is too much of a coward to actively provide that release for himself… He'll put himself into situations where death is possible, but not a guarantee. As much as he desires it, he fears it. * Medical Officer
