In the Raising Project game, one possible pathway ends with an 18-year-old Shinji marrying 33-year-old Misato.
In the series, she flirted with him, and by the time Asuka appeared in the cast he had opened up enough to Misato that they were comfortable bickering good-naturedly across the breakfast table in, uh, was it episode 8? The one with Jet Alone. That scene dripped sexual tension.
And much though I wished that after the Jet Alone bit, Misato would have glomped Shinji like a cute purple octopus and unburdened him of his aching virginity, then gone to meet Asuka on the aircraft carrier holding hands, it was not to be. ;_;
And yes, I noticed that Shinji was also very obviously hot for both Rei and Asuka as well. But neither of them struck me as being a good match for him. And Misato, objectively, WAS the best thing ever to happen to him in his sad little life. Yeah, she used him, she manipulated him, but it was still better than anyone else ever tried to treat him. She should have made him her own. For him, for all the sad lonely teenage boys who were ever hawt for teacher, for this particular sad lonely boy who put his ass on the line saving the world and was obviously about halfway in love with her. Yeah. It makes me squee.
Maybe they'll put it in Webuild of Evangewion. But pwobably not. ;_;
