Tbh it seems like the world partially ended already - plus I don't think shinji really gets the scope of the potential disaster right away. It's not like NERV & Gendo are transparent about the stakes and their goals...
Don't know how far into the series you are but from where you've mentioned watching to, without spoilers, I'll say that as it goes on there are a good few silly bits, a constant undercurrent of creepy perv stuff, and many many more examples of why Gendo is a fuckhead lol. I don't blame Shinji for finding him sus at all
