  • you go boy lol

  • Wait, Pen Pen's got his own room?

  • Imbued with character flaws that ultimately prove his undoing as he spirals into depression and insanity by the series' end, Shinji is a departure from the more idealistic heroes commonplace in mecha anime. Adventure heroes represent the audiences' aspirations: they are people we'd like to be. Shinji, conversely, is representative of the audiences' realizations: his flaws we recognize in ourselves. Evangelion is fantastic escapism even as it is a grim reminder of reality, so quit bashing Shinji.

  • @TheNile182 Stories such as NGE are reasons why I love non escpaist sci fi.

    When someone should go insane, they go insane, they should die, they die.

  • @gbatemper123 Exactly. These believably human characters live out the ultimate fantasy adventure only to find it cannot compensate for the basic human needs of love and friendship, it's thanks to them the show is as compelling as it is. That's the whole crux about Evangelion, you go in there thinking it's just going to be another fantastic escapism, then you're punched in the guts with a grim remainder of reality. To some (like you and me) it hurts so good, to others it hurts not so good.

  • @TheNile182 Yeah. I found Muv-Luv Trilogy (A VN) to hurt the most for me though. I reccomend it even if you do not play VN's. The first game is a typical harem (fantasy setting as you say), the 2nd VN (Setting goes 360 turn. A little more serious)

    The 3rd vn (Muv-Luv Alternative) is the sole reason people people play the 2 previous VN. It's currently rated the highest VN on vndb. Things get really serious in this. I'd have to say this VN hurt me much more then NGE.

  • @TheNile182 Muv-Luv Alternative really hurts, primarily due to the fact that if you grew attached to any characters within the 3 games (90+ hours), you will feel very bittersweet. If you decide to play it, expect for the worst

    Muv-Luv is pretty much NGE, but it lacks any supernatural theme and brings non escapism to the next level.

  • @gbatemper123 I've heard that "Muv-Luv Alternative: Total Eclipse" is going to be adapted to an anime that will be released this year. You think it will be any good?

  • @TheNile182 Honestly, despite being a fan of the series, no. It's the spin off light novel of the series. Especially with that director chosen.

    The Spin off was animated because it was "difficult" to find sponsors for animating Muv-Luv, but it was easy to find sponsors for its spin offs. This is primarily due to the complications that Muv-Luvs mid story genre shift causes.

  • @gbatemper123 But genre shifts shouldn't be a problem, Mahoromantic pulled it off.

  • @TheNile182 You see, the thing in Muv-luv is that the literally everything changes, the setting, world history, everything. The only thing that stays the same is the characters personality, the school location, etc. Doesn't help that the new setting after the genre shift is much more serious and gut wrenching then one thinks.

    The Main Characters even suffers PTSD in Alternative, only to be slapped in the face with reality and things ending up worse.

  • @gbatemper123 That sounds really complicated. It would take some guts and skill to produce an adaptation as the marketing would be tricky.

  • @TheNile182 And that is why their is not many sponsors for it. I heard another Side story (I believe it was Euro Front, or it might have been Schwarzmarken).

    Better then nothing though, almost been 10 years since the vn was released. The fact that it is still popular enough for a anime to be made now, shows it's still alive.

  • tsunderedere

  • I love Penpen and Asuka

  • 30 seconds

  • lol XD

  • Lol. She likes him but won't admit it....

  • Pen Pen:WTF its Asuka and Shinji doin?

  • Nice boat.

  • auskas interpretaion of kissing: suck air out of boy till collapse lung and brush teeth.

    sex probably involve smashing face into headboard while screeming (no actual sex will be involved)

    

  • 0:59

    Penguin: Bitch where`s my sandwich...wait what

    O.O

  • Comment removed

  • How long did that kiss go for

  • Everything went better than expected :D

  • @ArminTheGman Every thing's was indeed bitter than explosions.

  • 0:56 Cue Socially Awkward Penguin.

  • this better be in the rebuild

  • What cartoon is this?

  • @trueshinobi01 Evagelion

  • How did I get here from Wong fu

  • tsundere queen in action

  • i will force shinji to kiss me!!!

  • Why did i look at this

  • @SSChapin asuka was pinching his nose, so shinji couldn't breathe.

  • Oh Shinji you bonehead, you should have ravaged her there and then...!

  • When a girl goes that close to you, you go the rest of the way to kiss her. Shinji is so naive in this series .

  • lolololololol

  • actuslly its 15

  • That was a long kiss XD

  • Asuka is mai waifu~

    And I fucking hate Shinji for fapping on her when she was in a coma. I raged. Hard.

  • @CoolUsernameBrah You would do the same.

    Don't lie.

  • @CoolUsernameBrah

    Back to /a/ with you, anon.

  • i wish girls would kiss me if they were bored....

  • @ababifi

    If only... :(

  • @ababifi that sounds like perfection maybe in heaven that will happen...getting kissed when ever hot girls get bored

  • lol, new favorite episode~

  • God, i hate that spineless fucking faggot.

  • @smartguy9765 I honestly think Shinji Ikari is the most honest portrayal of a young male character ever. I mean he's 14, he has the pressure of Misato, his father and the whole NERV team to 'save the world', also not to mention his father abandoned him when he was young and his mother died at a young age. Shinji was also technically in care. It's a fact that young men like Shinji are highly represented in depression rates, suicide rates, prison rates, etc, etc.

  • @ndalum75 Yeah Gainax did had budget problems but thank goodness the network censors didn't allow the crazy stuff that they worked on *phew* :). 0_o WHAT I didn't know EoE was the intended ending all along.......well thx for the heads up there :)

  • no shinji x asuka in the rebuild :(

  • @DukeDumas A bit, just extremely subdued compared to Shinji/Rei at the moment.

  • Maybe Pen-Pen was like "Hey excuse me wheres the fli-......oh...guess I'll leave you two alone for awhile, well back to my comfy zone" when you see fli- he was trying to say flipper (meaning the TV remote :p) so ya xDD

  • @hotelmario510 0___0 DUDE....WHAT ARE YOU BECOMING TO MAN DD: I mean although I hadn't seen that scene yet, I prefer this one since you know it is romantic and all but what I mean is that I like good things rather than bad ones >.>

  • @emoguys11 Well that is honestly true -_-, but when I saw that part I was like 0_o dude what the hell are you doing then I realize it was......jizz now my reaction was 0.0 OMG......Shinji was that really necessary to do that right in front of Asuka who is in a coma........well at least EoE was a alternate ending thank goodness for that xD

  • @xXTheHeroicGamerXx EoE was the original plans for episodes 25 and 26, but they were scrapped because 1. Gainax was out of budget and 2. network censors would not let them air what they had planned. End of Evangelion essentially resurrected what was the intended ending all along.

  • シック~

    失恋した感じ

  • That was a long kiss.

  • @ZulKoji Intentionally so. Asuka was keeping it up for a long time, waiting and hoping that Shinji embrace her in the kiss. That didn't happen, which she takes as a rejection, and leads to her increasing mental instability by the end of the series.

  • WONG FU 4 LYFE

  • WONG FU 4 LIFE!!!!!!

  • WONG FUU!!!!!!

  • Its slut thread again?

  • @gtrville89 you mean asuka?

  • Naruto penguin is watching you erotically asphyxiate.

    There's a perfectly ordinary English sentence.

  • I'd say the strongest evidence that Shinji isn't gay or bi is the things we see going on in his head.

    Throughout the anime we are shown scenes of what is going on in his head, plenty of nude girls prance around in there but not one nude guy.

    The whole debate that he's gay because of Kaworu is silly, he said that he liked him because he was the only one he could remember ever saying he loved him. He's not gay or bi, he's just a confused and overly neglected teenager going through puberty.

  • @Vladislak Couldn't have said it better myself.

  • is it weird if i had a pretty big wtf moment at the end of the series =/ and will it all make a bit more sense if i watch the end of evangelion?

  • @Gloir To be honest, no, it's still as fucked up as ever as the first 4 minutes will show.

  • @beyondbirthday702

    well gay idk but he did like this guy named kaworu because he told shinji he loved him which were words he never heard before

  • wait, I read somewhere that Shinji's gay for this one dude. that he LITERALLY Loved him o,o

  • @beyondbirthday702 kaworu told him that, but kaworu isint really a human....

  • 0:56 xDDDDDDD Shinj's blushing :333 jk XDD

  • man they better have some scenes like this in the rebuild asuka chan!!!!

  • I wish it were more women like Asuka who want to just kiss because were bored XD

  • We all could tell this was going to happen

  • Ive only seen 1.01 and 2.22 Ive never seen this...

  • @staggo3000 u need to see the original series..... the movies are a condensed enhanced version of the original... or perhaps a continuation.

  • @metalraider187 im downloading the series....

  • @metalraider187 well the movie arent done yet hopefully we will get a better ending 2 the series cause im like wtf one last one

  • was that a french kiss? coz Shinji had a "grown up kiss" with Misato. so who's the first gave Shinji a grown up kiss??? just wondering

  • @mizwyn No that was a normal kiss. The pedo Misato gave him the "grown up" experience.

  • @wwwpwndcom oh! thank you so much for clarifying hehe... but im up with that grown up kiss with Misato lol

  • Shitttttttttttttt I wish I could find a girl that was like Asuka

  • JESUS ASUKA GIVE HIM SOME AIR ALREADY

  • When I first saw this I was SO anxious inside, and after they kissed I was like "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEE"

  • When I first saw this I was SO anxious inside, and after they kissed I like like "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEE"

  • note to self: do not kiss to kill time

  • it may be because i was to young when i watched this and because of that i don't remember much but i find that shinji's and asuka's relationship was done better in evangelion 2.22

  • @meapickle You mean non-existing that movie was too short and it cut out a lot of their interactions.

  • @TheSuperhalofreak

    really? lets see, asuka sleeping with shinji, asuka trying to make shinji lunch, most of there school interactions, her conversation with rei in the elevator and when shinji has to fight her and the dummy plug takes over

    and remember, there are still 2 more movies to work on there relationship

  • @meapickle I know right. In the movie it's so much more clear that she likes Shinji. And she shows way more Dere unlike the anime where she's all Tsun.

  • @jeezy395 it was a good balance between the both tsun and dere

    also there was no asuka liking kaji which i found really stopped most development between her and shinji

    once again i may need to see the anime again

  • Asuka wanted Shinji to hold her, and then probably wanted to have sex.

  • That looked uncomfortable..

  • Thats what I like about this anime, it's not just rockets and explosions, theres a story to it...

  • @Lollygal23 Well thats one of the great things about Anime.

    Its usually the story and the characters that is the most important.

  • Wow the subs are horrible they don't make sense. I think the English dub had a better feel of the events here.

  • Not helping his self esteem at all xD

  • Oh by the way, I fapped to you when you were in coma.

  • @emoguys11 wth is fapped??

  • @TheEternalKhaos Masturbated.

  • @emoguys11 lmao?

  • The most sane character in the anime is the Penguin.

  • @HaloSpartanG13 thats crazy

  • The video makes it look like hentai LOL

  • Hey if never kissed a girl he finaly did with Asuka and she liked Shinji but doesn't want say it

  • Man if there's a real girl like this

  • why arent there more girls like asuka...

    hey wanna make out? im bored.

    uh..sure, im down.

    cool.

    /sex

  • "Oh, Christ, not again. If anybody wants me, I'll be in my bunk. Tossers."

  • We all know who the best character from NGE is. That's THE PENGUIN~

  • first of all, roast that penguin already! and if a girl runs to rinse her mouth after kissing you, then you've got real issues dude.. ; j

  • Lol

  • ahaha,,,:P hilarious! 

  • bitch.

  • It just goes to show Penguins will be the dominant species one day.

  • @antisadism Well it wasn't shown any animal turning into Tang on the movie so I guess your right... Pen Pen is now free to rule the world... until beer runs out of course.

  • RE MrMrmonsterguy: Shinji Ikari is the most insecure, nervous, mindfucked, scared shitless guy ever known, real or imaginative. He cant defend himself, especially from Asuka, who is very much the bossy, tough, tomboyish, take no shit from anyone kind of girl (I have a best friend just like her). Plus, Shinji has had little to no experience with girls (not really his fault. Life royally fucked him over. He"s a damaged child.) Do you honestly think he could have avoided what happened?

  • Why does he allow himself to be bossed around? He had several chances to not go through with it! And then she tells him to stop breathing? Seriously... why must I bother. I know I wouldn't allow myself to get sucked into that kind of situation.

  • Lmao I love the penguin

  • That penguin is so not cockblocking!!!

  • I love this scene, the first true hint of Asukas feelings for Shinji (expanded upon later on in the series, when we see a flashback of her almost crying over the sink after this). The silence after they stop kissing and her morbid look is great!

  • Pen was like wth

  • Pen was ok

  • lucky him wish i was shinji

  • for some one who didn't enjoy it she sure held it for a while

  • puta que es rica ASUKA!!! CARAJOOO!!

  • Love The Penguin

  • Wow, weirdest kiss scene. LOL

  • OKAY!!! That was the oddest thing I've EVER seen!

  • I prefer Kaworu x Shinji. :P

  • @HollyMizuki OH MAN lol

  • with the tongue??! bleeeh >XP

  • He was like wtf wen she plugged his noes lol :D

  • Lawl, u know in the english dub, when asuka walks up to shinji for a kiss, she says "Here I come" like she's gonna shit kick shinji

  • God what a pussy I'd be like "....what do you do when your really bored?"

  • In the End of Evangelion, just before the Instrumentality sequence, they reflect this scene with a much darker one in which Asuka attacks Shinji rather than kissing him. I love that symbolism of what Shinji really thinks his relationships have come to.

  • Penpen is the best part of this scene.

  • el segundo 0:42 me iso soñar que seria besar a alguien asi de apasionado como shinji y asuka

  • me acabo de enamorar de asuka

  • シンジこの野郎!!!(涙)

  • The next time it will be with Nagisa! \o/

  • @MiaLaGameuse :no:

  • well, shinji is definitely a fag, he didnt even enjoyed it!

  • なんかフラれた気分.....

    あぁ......(泣)

  • holy... kiss my ass

  • I wish I could just do this whenever I'm bored. .

  • I love Pen² :D

  • Might as well just make love ya know? Hell...the world's at the peak of destruction for Christ sake. Well, actually "Christ" is the reason why. You don't want to spend rest of your life burning in satan's asshole while you realize you died a virgin do ya lad? Go get her!...wuss. ^,^ lol

  • Lol

  • Exciting

  • PenPen was hilarious in this scene <3

  • who would have thought this scene gained 1mil3 views O.O

  • C'mon, Shinji! Man up and put your arms around her! *sigh* It's a shame too, when she breaks down later and we find out that's really all she wanted =(

  • Bien ganado Shinji, solo q debió ser mas hot el man st.

  • LOL!

    The penguins like: "Hey guys have you seen my........ k I'll be back later"

  • laughed so hard at the penguin and gurgling noises. XD i dont even know this anime.

  • @belly8900 HOW DO YOU NOT KNOW NGE?

  • @Mariks500 Well, I have heard a lot about this anime at school, but never even bothered to check it. Finally, i had cracked and couldnt resist the urge to search it up. so i just clicked on some random video ( the NGE elevator scene) and just watched it. idk, im always watching random scenes of animes that are new to me.

  • @belly8900 You heard about it from school? Wow you are lucky, their are not many people that I know that like anime, let alone like anime that is not Bleach, Naruto, and Death Note. And whats worse is than in my old school people made fun of me just because I liked it. Any way yeah Evangelion is an amazing series, and it gets really deep and interesting in the later episodes. I also have the habit of watching random scenes of anime's before I watch them.

  • @TheZalor

    Not really.

    It's quite mediocre until episode 18 or so.

    Then it gets cool.

  • @TheZalor Oh, wow. My school is like an anime convention. people talk, act, and look like anime characters. it's pretty damn annoying, if you ask me. XD

  • Hey... she's german :)

  • 1:02

    Why did they have to run out of money ;_;

  • lol soo ...in conclusion. if im bored, call a random guy, or my bf in this case, and kiss him because im bored?? ... ok this is probably y tv shows r not educational ^^

  • thx

    

  • 東野のリアクションを見習え

  • q capitulo es ?
