- A feeling or set of feelings including hatred, cowardice, close-mindedness, arrogance and anger associated with anime characters who pilot mechas or other large engines of war that cause mass destruction. Shinji syndrome is usually characterised by the main character (Usually someone who pilots the death machine) having a period of outright hatred for the thing he's doing, despite an episode ago wanting to pilot aforementioned death robot.

Shinji Ikari is a perfect example of this (And where this syndrome gets it's name) - in most of Neon Genesis Evangelion, Shinji refused to pilot Eva Unit-01 numerous times even though nearly half an episode later he was back in it's control plug.
"Why did Amuro refuse to pilot the Gundam, he was enjoying it a few minutes ago. Man's got Shinji Syndrome for sure."

Shinji is one of the best person on earth. He is so committed and would do anything to get the job done. He would try so hard to make things right and is definitely one to keep. If you come across a Shinji, make sure to try your best to keep him. Not only will he try to brighten your day, he is also very passionate and without a thought, will be able to make you smile.
Shinji, I am so lucky to meet you.

When you fuck your girlfriend, pull out, and cum on your hand. after you do so, say “I’m so fucked up” and finger her with the now cum covered hand.
