Honestly, I don't have a problem with it if Asuka is in a lesbian relationship with Mari if it's revealed in Final.
I at first was a little disappointed by that (as I thought it was for the yuri factor and that I'm a firm AxS shipper), but the more I look at it, I think Asuka and Mari are probably the more stable relationships in all of Rebuild, what with their comradery and banter towards each other shows that they're comfortable with each other and know how each other works, so yeah, I'm okay completely if they're confirmed as a couple.
As for Shinji and Asuka, while I would normally would want Shinji and Asuka to get together, I'm also completely okay if Shinji doesn't end up with anyone in the end.
That doesn't mean that I'm condemning relationships or romance in general, far from it. If Shinji does get a relationship, then that's GREAT. If he remains single for the rest of his life, then that's even okay as well, cause there are different forms of love in life.
Asuka and Mari would be a nice step for them showing the comradery of their relationship, and Shinji being on his own would be showing that it's okay to be single, as long as you learn to love yourself, and even then, that could be all the love he needs in order to be happy.
It's actually an interesting type of message when you think about it. We're all accustomed to the idea that we need to be in a relationship or have a significant other to be happy, but actually, you can be just as happy on your own if you learn to love yourself. Oh, you can have friends and family to help, but I'd be okay if Shinji learned to simply love himself and learned to be happy with that. :)
