Wisecrack's take on Evangelion's conclusion

https://youtu.be/-jCEZInbN5w

One of my favourite philosophy of media channels on YouTube finally said something about the ending of NTE (and the whole series). Just wanted to share it with you, geeks, and see what you think.

Re: The Adams/ Eva 13/ The ships/ The vessels

Also, Fuyutsuki tells Mari that he "prepared the things for her to take", and tells her to do as she sees fit. Perhaps he disabled/dumbed down the vessels on purpose, for Mari to easily defeat them. He sounds pretty much "We had a good run with Ikari, but the show is over, so..."...

Re: Evangelion 3.333 Bluray coming out on 8/25

There is a video clip on tumblr but I don't think it's complete Some things seem to be genuine changes/choices - the like masked Reis being just heads in a tube, the 'new' Rei reading (while the one we got in Q markedly didn't) and the DSS choker scene going very differe...

Re: What exactly is Kaworu?

I suspect this could mean Kaworu's body was created using Gendo's DNA. I'm glad to read that I'm not the only one suspecting this. I will not die burnt at the stake alone :lol: I will further this heresy: This is not the first time we have heard that Kaworu reminds Shinji of his father, similar to ...

Re: The possible meta-commentary of Asuka's NTE backstory

I don't think that anything in Evangelion must be absolutely taken as textual or metatextual. That's the richness of this, because there are multiple layers of meaning in this work. I'll add what my brother reads from this scene: It really adds and builds why Rebuild's Asuka HATES the likes of Rei a...

Re: The Last Train Station Scene

Reading this topic harkens me back to when people kept speculating about what happens before and after the beach scene in Evangelion. It seems like Western audiences can't deal with a play ending a narrative without a neatly tied closing bow. Can't blame you, that's the structure of the media we are...

Re: Where do we go from here?

I don't think that the "Good-bye to all evangelion" tagline should be interpreted like this. It is Shinji's, as Anno's expy, own hopeful goodbye to being directly involved with Eva, because it is a personal suffering, probably also projected on everyone else involved. The curse of Eva is t...
