It's not "Air on a G string" It's "Air" from Bach's third orchestral suite. "Air on a G string" was a transcription made by a virtuoso violinist of the piece for violin and piano. It was named such because by transposing the music in a certain way he was able to play the entire piece on one string (the G string) of his violin. It is beautiful though.
End of Evangelion for me was the most physically and mentally touching anime film I've ever watched, I'm a huge fan of Evangelion anyway but when I first watched at the end I was left questioning my existance this song also fills me with both anger and sorrow
The thing that makes this part of the movie so amazing is how horrific it is. The same is just really calm and peaceful, yet the scene is grotesque and violent that they just clash and to have background music such as this just brings to mind how horrible man can be while at the same time using excuses such as "fighting for peace and freedom," is a monstrosity.
Albeit I do have to admit this is one of my favorite parts in the series =)
I think the clashing is what makes this movie great. Look at the song Komm, Susser Tod. The melody is upbeat but the lyrics are sad and drepressing, but the visual style used in the scene is neat.
@ivopavlov AIR Am. I. Ready. a question put in evangelion, the duality complex men destroys and constroys we have war and art, rei which leads the plesure of desctruction and kaworu the libido of creation
@nyxmaroercheostrea put bluntly, we all hate each other, yet we love each other.. love and hate, peace and war.. theres no differences, there not the same.. alas, for the humanity, will end up killing each other, sooner or later till extinction.. but thats fine, cause.. that is what we have been doing, since the dawn of our existence. hence, evangelion.. the angel of mercy and death..
I love the part when Ritsuko die.
The betrayal of the Casper is just bitter. The mother like thing want her man than her girl. Sad for Ritsuko for sure.
I don't know what Ikari said to Ritsuko. May be it's "Love you", or "Love your mother".
It bangs. And she fall. When she is dying, she see Rei. Maybe it represent the leading to heaven or LCL or hell or nothingness.
Don't you guys think that the story of Ritsuko is similar to "Wuthering Heights"?

According to Wikipedia, the song is commonly called "Air on the G string", originally composed by Bach. I love it too.
