Me too. If I didn't know any better, I'd say I was somehow looking at Gendo being a pretty okay father.

He's actually much better in the 2nd movie. Even praises Shinji twice.

Me, too. Who slipped my the LSD, so I see Гандон Икари (Russian wordplay, roughly translated as "Dickhead Ikari") not acting as the 2nd worst father in animé history (worst was Shou Tucker resp. Shou Fucker)?
