I've been stalking your Shinji, and I think you're doing a good job with him, so far. With the continuity he comes from, and he matches his humble, meek personality when it comes to the people he meets, and being taken by surprise by the accepting nature of Luceti.

I kind of want to see his reactions to the coming storm of the village (the proverbial one). I apologize for not finding much you could improve your character upon, though.
