In all my fanfic writing and all my crazy formulations I never dreamt that Anno could take Eva down to this level of insanity. Guess I was wrong.

This is Anno we're talking about here- remember that little film back in 1997 that was supposed to end the confusion of NGE? I consider Anno a master (a little crazy, yes) and End of Evangelion a classic now, as do many others- and if that crazy, destroy-all-humanity LCL explosion romp of a film can be considered a classic, then so can 3.0.

Did Eva really need all this clutter? Was it not possible to make a compelling new story out of the more basic frameworks that existed without throwing in dozens more robots, characters, running as far away from established difficult things like the events of the last movie into a removed future so that we don't have to be accountable for the meager new developments that we ~have~ made?

Thank god we'll always have the original Eva. Nothing can destroy that, no matter how much Anno goes Lucas.


This is basically what I've been thinking.

I don't know if i should watch this film at all. It sounds like its just continuing on with all the things that made me hate 2.0.

If Anno wanted to make something this ADD-addled and ridiculous then why didn’t he just make a new super robot series?..

Sadly you may be right. And that is why Anno will most likely end up with all the death threats again. Most people don't want to feel suicidal and deppresed after watching something.
I'm not sure what I feel about Eva anymore, but I'm pretty sure I don't actually enjoy the series anymore.

I agree. After around 15 years of End of Evangelion, Shinji deserves at least a break.

This is a little different from EoE. Shinji is directly responsible for his own predicament here, as well as those of several other people around him, and even with these being the direct consequences of his own actions he's still (for god knows what reason) apparently getting off far easier than he ever did in NGE/EoE.

In the end, Ikari Shinji shall succeed!

There, you see?
SO THERE I WAS BEING KUBO, WHEN THE EDITORS CAME IN AND WERE LIKE "YOU NEED TO DO MORE THAN PANELS OF WHITE PILLARS AND BLACKGROUNDS!" AND I WAS LIKE "FUCK YOU, I'M KUBO!" SO THEY WERE LIKE "WELL HOW ABOUT SOMEBODY DYING?" AND I WAS LIKE "FUCK YOU, I'M KUBO!" AND I MADE LOTS AND LOTS OF MONEY. I LOVE MY LIFE.

I've seen other places where people have said the thing they liked most about was that they felt the children might be able to earn a happy ending. Oh, they'd definitly have to work for it, but they could get it. See there's a reason Eva has as much popularity as it does. Why there are so many AU spin offs, and so much fanfiction. And it's not because it's deep. It's not because it's thought provoking, or full of symbolism. And it's sure as hell not because it depressing. No. It's because we like the charecters. And as a resualt we want them to actually win one of these days. The why of all the AU's? We want to see Rei get a chance to learn what life actually is like (although I'll admit I know I'll never see the Shinji/Rei ship set sail). We want to see Asuka actually go on a date with Shinji, and whisper inbetween the stupid Shinji's that she loves him. We want to see Shinji manage to actually grow into a adult and a human bieng who you can feel something other than pity and disgust for. Because you know what? We love the charecters at lot.
I'm not sure what I feel about Eva anymore, but I'm pretty sure I don't actually enjoy the series anymore.

I'm genuinely wondering if all the -nami's are clones, repeating the same loop of birth, train, fight and die over and over. That, and not some mysterious "curse of eva" is why they don't age. (Or maybe the curse thing is way too literal.)

Shinji never pulled here the "everyone should just die" card.

Unless you're taking the extremely negative interpretation of Shinji's actions in 2.0's ending - like I know you're doing - but in the end that's all it is. Interpretation

I was referring to his situation leading up to EoE, not what he did during it.

Though that is what he did in 2.0 as well, yes.

In a related note, all the pictures have been mirrored on my wiki.
How do these random pics violate the tos? Not an explicit copyright notice, so maybe it was the file name?

Didnt read the whole thread and I'm honestly not going to. But. If this stuff is true,which it probably is,then there goes Rebuild being better then the TV series. It was fine to have 2.0 go a different path then the series but for 3.0 to go even further off track is just fucking ridiculous,to be honest. All this stuff is a total mindfuck. And I know that's what 3.0 is supposed to be. But this is beyond ridiculous -_-.
