It was the manipulation of female bodies that sent me over the edge, they are LITERALLY used as tools. Almost like their bodies are like the basis of a motorcycle and the male character pilots the robot by moving her around. Every time there's an action shot and it pans to characters' reactions, it's only male characters, because the female characters are too busy BEING USED TO PILOT THE ROBOT. Nah. The initial setup of them being paired and the girls shivering or moaning was disgusting, the dialogue about 'I'm inside you' 'I'm going even deeper!!' was just too damn much.
Zero Two is supposed to be this inhuman badass character that legit kills all her pilots because she's TOO POWERFUL TO HANDLE. No, that didn't happen. She got tamed by a weak teenage boy, the only one that could save and understand her. Gross.
This anime was easy for me to drop, I wanted to like it, but it was really just an EVA ripoff that was sexist and quite frankly, disgusting. It's a shame because the art was good... everything else though, major disappointment.
