[SPOILERS] Will Shinji Ever Find Love In The End?

Postby MitsumuraKun51196 » Wed Jan 02, 2013 10:28 pm

Was originally [NO SPOILERS], but that crippled the thread a bit, so I've taken the liberty of changing that... -Reichu

Why is a "no spoilers" thread in Q and Beyond? This is the designated "spoilers" section.

Probably not.
SPOILER: Show
Though why anyone would want to be paired up with impact boy is beyond me.

I mean If I were in the series I would try and make him happy.
Like that one friend that only comes around in a life time and you never want to give him/her up. And show him hope/Happiness/fear.
I would probably be the only one here that wants to help him.
And I would have Shinji focus on his life and not others.

Tons of [NO SPOILERS] threads in this subsection? No... No, not really.

Assuming you put "no spoilers" there on purpose, this goes in the regular "Rebuild" forum.

The question we should really be asking is:

Does Shinji believe in love after tang?

Can he feel something inside his plugsuit? Does he really not think it's strong enough. No!

Does Shinji believe in love after tang?

I assume that Shinji will never find love in the end.

I honestly don't see how I'm going to be able to discuss this without spoilers.

So I'm just going to put a goofy reply in. Shinji will discover his love for dancing. Sadly he'll die doing the Tango De La Muerte, but he'll die happy.
I'm not sure what I feel about Eva anymore, but I'm pretty sure I don't actually enjoy the series anymore.

Agreed.

Possible Q Spoiler:
SPOILER: Show
It'll be already something if Shinji will find peace of mind like Kaworu invited him to do.

Because he's cute, isn't he?
So let’s make a wish.

Yea, unfortunately we can't discuss the chances of love with any other character without getting into spoiler territory, but what I would say is that, given that this is Eva, and given the messages inherent in Eva, I'd say the safest bet is that he'll find love of himself at the least. Whether he also finds love with another character or not, well people have to watch 3.0 and 4.0 to find out.

Not really considering that:
SPOILER: Show
Asuka and Mari are mentally adults and Rei we see in Rebuild of evangelion 3.0 is different from the Rei we know & love, Kaworu died preventing fourth impact plus most of the post-third impact human population hates him for his action


Even if he finds true love, he going to transform into an Evangelion in the end and revolutionize with his girlfriend I mean boyfriend.

No, but he's going to end up making some kind of heroic sacrifice anyway and then we'll find out someone was secretly pining for him. I'm sure there will be some knife twisting, like a vision of his future children who will never be born, and who are also on fire.
the prophecy is true

Thank you for ruining the intended joke

I'm not sure.

I (deliberately) know very little about 3.0, but if it's going to be somewhat like EoE, we'll never know. Open ends, huh? :)

Honestly, it's why I love open ends: they leave it all to the reader/watcher/fan's imagination.

Note: I'm no longer the author of the fanfiction "Eva Brothers from Cybertron". I passed authorship to a friend (Lia Dospetti) who's turning it into her own work, while still maintaining homages to NGE and Transformers, as well as Star Trek. I still draw the artworks, though, and I have some fragments of the old fanfic here.

I don't think he'll get into a romantic relationship with anyone in the cast, but he will most likely find love through platonic relationships. That is of course if Anno still intends to end Rebuild on a happy note and not go EoE on us.

He has to learn to love himself first, which has always been an uphill struggle.

That, and having to accept the possibility of being hurt and rejected in the process. At least in the world he presently lives in.
