And Asuka's foot kicking it to the ground. (you can still see these graves in the actual ending... no names, but there is Misato's pendant nailed to one of them, and another has been kicked down)
We then see Shinji and Asuka on the beach... and you know that scene, too (but this draft demonstrates that Shinji and Asuka didn't just wake up there after Third Impact... they've been living here for some time... meaning they could be the only two humans willing to return, after all...)
When Shinji starts crying, Asuka was supposed to say something like, "Idiot. No way I'll let you kill me" ("idiot" was removed in the storyboards... and the whole line was modified, eventually).
Then, the ending music was supposed to begin, and the staff credits were to appear (Anno suggests a horizontal scrolling). We were to see Eva-01 lying on the Moon, and woman's hair showing from its broken mask (but her face remains unseen). Behind Eva-01, you could see Earth, entirely red. And the Black Moon, destroyed.
The camera goes to the sun, then to the stars.
Credits end.
"Shûgeki" ("the end").

His right hand is holding a white one.
"I'll never see them again."
"It's better to think of it this way."
"I'm still alive, so I'll keep on living."
He squeezes the hand harder.
Then, he sees Rei (like in the actual episode and Alt. Ending One). We eventually see that there is nobody lying next to Shinji. Just a white arm without the rest of the body.
The camera then shows the full moon.
The ending credits are the same as in Alt. Ending One.

So anyone have any thoughts on the second ending? I would love to see something like that animated
