I genuinely wanted to see Shinji succeed. He's naive, innocent, relatable, and overall just a great guy and a nice character to follow a series through (I know a lot of people say they wish Ryuki followed Ren instead of Shinji, but I really don't think the series would be anywhere near as interesting following Ren).

Yeah, Shinji's awesome. I just found Ren more likable off the bat than Shinji.
