I just read chapter 1 and I admit that it is a school comedy but who knows ... maybe it will be better. :asuka_thumbsup: Sorry for the super late reply, I almost forgot I posted this here. Yeah, I hate the first two chapters the most. One day I'll rework them. I have no idea how it's picked up sinc...

Thank you! I've been a big Eva fan since the late 90s, so writing something for it felt fantastic. And I really loved the Manga (Manga Shinji has real Chad energy) and felt the ending needed more. This story's been difficult because, for all the Manga reader knows, these characters look like Shinji ...

Good afternoon everyone, I've been working on and posting this story for several months on reddit and thought I'd share it here. It originally started as a pet project in my head years ago: just a way to tie my career as a musician to my love for the characters of Evangelion. It was during COVID-19'...

To address some of OP's concerns - I think that we were explicitly not foreshadowed that for it to be a such a powerful twist. Aside from mentioned examples, it was expected that we would look at Shikinami playing role of "Asuka". There are many things that make sense if you consider her ...

One of my favorite parts of Ocean's Eleven is, if you really paid attention, you could figure out what the crew was doing the entire time. On the contrary, I hate that in Ocean's Twelve they perform a heist only to get caught, but it was diversion! You couldn't figure it out even if you were playing...

https://sm.ign.com/ign_ap/screenshot/default/honkai-keyart-en_gq4u.png Maybe it was just poor timing, but Asuka's inclusion in the Honkai Impact 3rd crossover event really made it seem like she would a) take a bigger role in the (then) upcoming movie, and b) get some form of conclusion in said movi...

People hate on how Rei is handled in Re-Take, but Asuka is given the same treatment in the Rebuilds. IIRC, Rei kills herself in Re-Take and a good portion of the story revolves around Shinji marrying Asuka. Hardly the same as Shin where Asuka is alive and possibly content with her living situation ...

It's bad that Anno thought that a good retelling / remake (whatever it was) of his previous work as well as trying to convey the message that people should move on and embrace reality, consisted in what dissatisfied fans of a franchise do when they're upset with its reality. They refuse to move on ...

“Too bad” - hideaki Anno You may be closer than we think on this. I wonder if Anno used the Rebuilds and Shi NTE ji as a reflection of himself, ignoring that other people have liked and identified with Shinji as his own character. It's kind of a Death of the Author situation: even if Anno meant for...

Edit: Imo, the uncertainty comes not from whoever she does or does not get paired with, but sitting isolated at the edge of the screen. And yes, loners are gonna be lonely, but that doesn't mean they are happy. From what I can gleam so far, it just seems like she went full circle and is back at whe...

Let's all take a step back and talk about only the things we actually know about the movie, not our assumptions about what the movie will or will not do in areas that we haven't seen yet. Some of the things said in this thread are nothing short of bad faith premature judgement. Not trying to be com...

I think there's more to Asuka and Mari we ain't seeing, and may never see. Asuka = Old Mari = New Completely agreed. I think the biggest issue is Anno expects us to understand what he thinks happened between everything, but we only understand what we can see and are told. And were basically told Ma...

Long, loooong time lurker. Had an account after 2.0, but don't remember it for the life of me. Anywho, I've watched the leak of the final sequence several times and keep landing at: had the girl that spoke with Shinji’s hair been red, it would immediately make infinite more sense. If Shinji has inde...
