Let's imagine if you're Shinji in EoE. In the movie that little wimp wanted to die... So if, if you're Shinji, what would you do? Would you simply trigger the Third Impact and do what Seele wishes?

If I'm Shinji, first of all I wouldn't go to Asuka's ward.

I'd take unit 01 and annihalte those bastards attacking nerve and squish gendo. Then I'd blow up the eva series and go look for the old seele dudes. Of course they probably wouldnt be easy to find, but I'de have super unit 01 with the big giant wings on my side, no one could stop me! Not sure if I'de try to remake the world or not, if I did you could be sure it'd be more interesting then what Shinji ended up making.

I would have done pretty much everything he did, except I would have let humanity be damned to that everlasting one-ness. Then destroy the world.

I think I would have gone to a baseball stadium. And then robbed a bank.

Actually why would Anno add that part to the movie? Give people an impression that Shinji was as sex-starved as James Bond?

If you were Shinji, then:

-Your mother would be dead.
-Your father hates you.
-You generally haven't been popular with girls in your life.
-You've come face to face with death on regular occassions.
-You watched as your own father used your Unit to kill one of your best/only friends.
-You've watched as one of your co-pilots, friend and object of your sexual desires breaks down mentally, and is mind-raped.#
-You watch as one of your co-pilots, friend and possible 'mother figure' blows herself up. As far as you know, she's dead and gone.
-...But then she comes back to life.
-Then you find out she's a clone.
-You kill one of the only people to tell you that they care for/love you, after finding out he's an enemy.
-You realise that your main mother figure, guardian is going to die after being kissed by her and discovering blood in your mouth and hands.

Yeah, I imagine after all that, not to mention the years of becoming isolated and possibly bitter before 2015, you're going to be up for kicking ass, taking names and generally 'rocking hardcore in Unit 01'.

Frankly, I'm surprised Shinji didn't try and kill himself.

Hm, I'd realize I really had nothing left to loose...wait, nvm, there's still Asuka and Misato...hmm..

Well, I would pull Misato through the door thingy before she died. Then I would proceed to take her, into Unit01, and try to save Asuka, and kick the Harpie's asses some how.

^ The above is the single most plausible changes to EoE.

Misato entering Shinji's room in Episode 23 would have gone MUCH differently.

He was too much of a coward to do so. As usual.

Well I would also do the same what he did, but I'd try to save Misato and Asuka too. Then I would use my wings to fly up to the sky, and battle the EVA series. If possible, I'd throw them through the atmosphere - that'd prevent them from regenerating... :wink: :twisted:

That would have been a great change in the genre... :wink: :D

He did, here Image and again at the start of EoE (why else is he standing by the lake with a wet head?) but as Anno said "he has convinced himself that he is a completely unnecessary person, so much so that he cannot even commit suicide".

For myself, I would just keep plodding one foot in front of the other, taking one moment at a time - so getting to the cage rather than moping under a staircase, following a sense of duty.

I would have snapped by EoE so I would have probably gone mental and beat the shit out of anything that got in my way

If you're Shinji, you would do the same thing. The better question is, what would you want Shinji to do, or if it were you in Shinji's position, what would you have done.

Personally, I think many people would have ended up in the same despondent position. One of your colleagues is killed and then revealed to be a clone of your mother. Your other colleage has gone catatonic. Your male role model has been killed for digging into a conspiracy. Your guardian and your father have all but abandoned you. One of your superiors has been imprisoned. Your closest friends was almost killed by the robot you pilot, which wouldn't ordinarily be so bad if you didn't have to feel the entire action as if you yourself were doing it. All your friends have left you because their homes were destroyed in order to save your life. And finally, you've been forced to kill the only person that accepted you and loved you for who you are.

That's all in the span of a short period of time. You have no emotional support, no one to help you. What else are you going to do but break down. Your whole world has been torn apart. I don't envy Shinji's position, and I would never call him a whiner, because his character had his world destroyed piece by piece until he had nothing left.
