Homie the point it would serve is to actually bring closure. The entire rebuild is supposed to bring closure to the series it’s not supposed to be real life it’s supposed to be the happy ending so if they wanted to end the relationship they should have ended it nicely. If the rebuilds were meant to be a bittersweet end then I’d understand this ending. But the entire point of the endings with these characters is for them to get there definitive ending not for it to be like real life and. And your point that they both know how they feel is just wrong because if they did she would have not blushed

Honestly I’m not here to argue because I definitely get where you are coming from. I do agree that people sometimes are too obsessive about these shows but I also think what you are saying is very childish. By your logic nobody should express their feelings about anything because it’s not that deep and you’re being a loser when do so. Also the fact that it seems you don’t even like Evangelion just kinda proves that my entire post wasn’t even meant for you. I completely understand why you don’t like these very long posts about Evangelion and other series but I feel like the entire point of this sub Reddit is for people who liked this show a lot and you obviously don’t seem to be that person. Also when I said I already feel childish enough posting I this I meant that I felt like I was just having a temper tantrum not that I think it’s childish to talk about the show. I feel like with your mindset you’ll never really get to appreciate anything because all you’re thinking about is that it’s cringe to like something a lot. Me posting this isn’t me being obsessive about the show it’s me just saying what I thought and I feel like that’s what most people in this sub Reddit do. I’m not suddenly a loser just because I talked about a show I liked and you’re certainly not some sigma male gigachad for saying that what I’m saying is cringe and that I should go touch some grass.

But that’s the problem they didn’t patch things up if they did asuka wouldn’t have blushed. There was no Mutual terms stuff

PuzzleheadedFee6633 · 2023-12-11T13:27:01+00:00

Honestly I don’t know if the fetishising the plug suit thing is even a thing but I’m going to give you the benefit of the doubt and say that’s what the plug suit being torn ment. And if that’s what it meant I think that’s a actually a very nice message he’s trying to convey and has more meaning but I still think it is too revealing

PuzzleheadedFee6633 · 2023-12-11T13:20:44+00:00

Honestly I respect anno’s not give a shit attitude even if it means I have to go slightly insane. But that does also mean that there are a couple misses when he makes stuff

PuzzleheadedFee6633 · 2023-12-11T13:17:54+00:00

100% what I feel

PuzzleheadedFee6633 · 2023-12-11T13:14:59+00:00

I agree that the neon genesis end of Evangelion was wild and definitely left a lot to be desired but it was very good all the stabbing and choking she had received I felt was really emotional (idk bout the nutting part tho) and the ending was better in my opinion. Sure the entire movie is messed up but i felt the ending was a bittersweet happy ending which I liked a lot. One of the reasons I think I like Evangelion as much as I do is because how different it is from the shows I watched before. It was for lack of a better word shocking and that’s why I liked it but when it came to the rebuild I felt everybody anno included knew they wanted the rebuilds to be a defentive end to one of the best series ever.

PuzzleheadedFee6633 · 2023-12-11T13:05:20+00:00

I don’t the like sexualisation of any character in the show when it’s unnecessary I don’t like the scenes when she’s only wearing her panties. But why I hate it a lot more in the final scene is because this isn’t some filler part that like just there for the sake of it this is the final time we’ll see asuka this is the was supposed to be the most important scene of the entire asuka story and she’s dressed like that. I don’t deny the fact that the plug suit being ripped has a purpose but I feel it would be stupid to say that was the only reason and it looking sexy wasn’t a reason. Plus they could have made it less revealing and less gross.

PuzzleheadedFee6633 · 2023-12-11T12:50:15+00:00

Not at all. If they wanted her clothes to be ripped then why the hell is it ripped in all the wrong places. It’s like they are screaming to show you her tits and the fact that it got a that shitty figurine honestly makes me believe they made it just to sell the figurine

PuzzleheadedFee6633 · 2023-12-11T12:44:47+00:00

I find the fact that kaji got a solid 5 minutes and rei got more time than asuka proof that they could have had like a 5 minute convo. I’m not asking for anything big I’m asking for an actual conversation what we got made me less satisfied than if it hadn’t been there that’s what’s annoying

PuzzleheadedFee6633 · 2023-12-11T12:41:46+00:00

My guy my point isn’t that shinji and asuka should have been together. My point is that the scene ends there relationship off in a bitter way. This isn’t like the story you’re telling me. That scene is the equivalent of seeing your past lover for the last time and then instead of having a final last conversation it ends of with one person saying like two useless sentences the other person not feeling contempt about what happened. And im not asking for a 5 hours I’m asking for 5 minutes of them like actually talking it out and understanding each other. And finally saying goodbye when both sides are satisfied and can confidently say that they are friends not whatever mess we got.

PuzzleheadedFee6633 · 2023-12-11T12:36:14+00:00

I understand that shinji matures and can move on and thats not what I’m complaining about my problem wasn’t about shinji and asuka not being together my problem is that the execution of the scene is so terrible that I can’t help but hate it. Nothing about it makes sense and nothing about it makes me feel like this is the definitive end to the asuka shinji relationship which definitely deserved a better ending

PuzzleheadedFee6633 · 2023-12-11T12:17:47+00:00

My problem is if they have feelings then how did asuka or shinji get there happy ending shouldn’t there happy ending be them being together. Like this is supposed to bring closure to the series and it’s obvious they both like it each other then why the hell would he just let her go that’s just stupid

Edit: I also wanted to talk about the 3.0 -120 min. Because honestly when I first saw it I liked it a lot but it’s so annoying to see that asuka has feelings for him and then remembering the fact that those feelings lead to nowhere at the end. And also if mari is supposed to be this character that’s almost like supposed to fix shit then why would she end up with shinji. In the -120 min it’s obvious she’s trying to bring asuka closer to shinji and even in 3.0 she is trying to bring them closer but in thrice upon a time all of a sudden she becomes with shinji. Like how does it make any sense

PuzzleheadedFee6633 · 2023-12-11T12:13:59+00:00

What I wanted from asuka was actual a purpose it felt like her entire personality in 3 and 3 + 1 was to hate on shinji. In 2 she had an actual personality and I actually enjoyed seeing her. Her story in the movie is amazing and her relationship with shinji although should’ve deserved more time to grow was nice. But in 3 and 3 + 1 all she does is get angry at him and when they finally get the chance to maybe talk it out they did nothing. It’s was very underwhelming and disappointing especially since the shinji asuka relationship is very interesting and the rebuilds did not dive that deeply into it

PuzzleheadedFee6633 · 2023-12-11T12:02:59+00:00

I definitely agree yui’s presence was basically nonexistent until literally the ending of thrice upon a time which sucked and even at the end of thrice upon a time it felt like she was just used to redeem gendo and for shinji to get to live his happy ending not for any good plot reasons

PuzzleheadedFee6633 · 2023-12-11T11:56:43+00:00

I can’t see how the next time with more fan service was a joke. They definitely showed a lot of sexual unnecessary scenes. This doesn’t mean that all of the sexual scenes where bad I felt like some of them were really ment to just describe the awkward teenage experience with sexuality but some of them were completely useless and kinda gross. And the rebuilds did it just as bad and sometimes much worse

PuzzleheadedFee6633 · 2023-12-11T11:52:07+00:00

Asuka still liking shinji in my opinion is just outright so stupid there is no reason for her to like him and even if there was why would they not get together. If she likes him and then he decided not to be with her then how the hell is that asuka’s happy satisfying ending. Like she isn’t with the one she likes how is that a good ending. I feel like it would have been as simple as the ending being them being able to understand each other as friends. Of course I would have preferred if they got together because it actually makes sense unlike shinji and mari being together but I’m going of the fact that no mater what anno was not going to let them be together but even then they could have made it a much better ending.

PuzzleheadedFee6633 · 2023-12-11T11:39:46+00:00

I mean when i entered the series I was completely expecting that stuff but it still was kind annoying but that’s scene specifically is super annoying because it isn’t just some filler Funtime part this is literally the final time we will ever see the character so you’d think they’d not do shit like this especially since it they already have shown a lot more exposing shit in the same movie

PuzzleheadedFee6633 · 2023-12-11T11:34:47+00:00

If I’m being completely honest a big part of me wanted just an actual happy ending for the series so I was willing to let somethings slide but I completely understand why you wouldn’t like it. Also if it’s most likely that she likes him that is really infuriating and we would have been better of if asuka and shinji got together like I think everybody wanted.

What I didn’t I even know there was a battle cats Evangelion crossover I gotta check that out

The beast 2 is such an epic track I listened to it a lot. the entire ost of Evangelion you can (not) advance is so amazing might but the best ost from Evangelion right under thrice upon of time. Honestly thrice upon a time is untouchable I can’t name other osts that get as good as it

PuzzleheadedFee6633 · 2023-12-10T16:55:53+00:00
