i found it sad when watching the end of evangelion and shinji almost relives a different version of this scene (as they are in the same clothes etc. it is clearly the same scene) it made it seem as though shinji was trying to relive that one moment because it was the only time he felt somebody need him or could help him, but then obviously in the second one he ends up strangling her :/ i reaaaaaally hope he changes that in the final film remake
@CaraAsoleada lol don't blame it on Shinji, us girls must not forget that men aren't mind readers. If she wanted him to hold her she should have just said so lol or better yet she should have just told him that she liked him
@TooLazy65 Thing is, that's not in Asuka's character. She(as well as Shinji, for that matter) suffers from a debilitating fear of being alone, which makes it very hard for her to outright say what her feelings are.
If they were two years older, she'd propbably get that poor, shy, obedient kid who has something of a crush on her to fuck her before he is truly "ready" for stuff like that, thinking she is. In fact, she is ALMOST doing that - kisses, expecially the first ones, are seen as something very intimate in Japan, but it is only realistic for teenagers to "experiment", no matter where they're from, and I like how this is shown here, because, sadly, not EVERYONE's first kiss is uber romantic....
And thus, poor, innocent Shinji was deprived of the chance to have a proper, romantic first kiss...
More "mature/advanced" youngsters taking advantage of more inexperienced, insecure ones to "experiment" - It happens a lot. while ppl tend to think that guys do this to girls more often, it's also possible the other way around - and pretty probably, since girls mature faster and boys are under the pressure to act "manly".
@queens2nd2none Can you REALLY blame Shinji? For all he knows, she hates his guts, thinks he's a boring moron and is just using him as practice dummy cuz Kaji's unavailable. Don't you feel sorry when you see the blush on his face and none on hers? Yeah, YOU have seen ep 22, but Shinji hasn't (except for the parts of the ep he was in, of course) and has no way to read her freakin' mind. how in the world could he have known? He thinks HEs the one with the unrecruited crush.
I read on the enternet that some anime fanatics who didn't like the ending to this show sent the creator of Evangelion letters with death threats. Personally I think those fanatics were psycotic.
Shinji (and the audience first time round) think that Asuka really is bored and just wants to kiss for the sake of it. But when she runs off, you can sense by her silence that she's mad. Of course the bleh! from the english dub makes this less obvious. I didn't pick this up until I read an article on the Eva wiki of Shinji's and Asuka's relationship
Yeah. I'd stop short of saying that the English dub was horrible--actually, I think it was very good--but it could have been better. It messed up some of the more subtle touches like this scene.
DONT READ THIS Cause It Really Works. YOU WILL GET KISSED ON THE NEAREST POSSIBLE FRIDAY BY THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE. TOMORROW WILL BE THE BEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE. HOWEVER IF YOU DONT POST THIS COMMENT TO AT LEAST 3 VIDEOS YOU WILL DIE WITHIN 2 DAYS. NOW UV STARTED READIN DIS DUNT STOP THIS IS SO SCARY. SEND THIS OVER TO 5 VIDEOS IN 143 MINUTES WHEN UR DONE PRESS F6 AND UR CRUSHES NAME WILL APPEAR ON THE SCREEN IN BIG LETTERS. THIS IS SO SCARY IT WORKS!"
@HermiOdleProduction5 Wasn't there a scene in the final two episodes that showed, more or less, that she actually DID like Shinji, just felt extremely frustrated that she wasn't able to express it properly?
But, then to think, who in this mindfuck of an anime has any semblance to normality (besides Kaji, which goes without saying) anyway?
@RezRez Yes, it was made pretty clear that Asuka liked him, even though she had trouble expressing it. At least she tried to make a move with the kiss, what did he do?
They're both very damaged individuals so Asuka saying: anta baka?! and Shinji crying is as close as they'll ever get to saying: i love you
i just don't get it, if she didn't like the kiss, why did she kept going for 30 sec; the way she stood there while locking lips was like she was enjoying it!
Wow. I didn't realize how much difference there was between the English and Japanese versions. In the English one, they make a lot of noise while kissing, and Asuka gives the obligitory "BLECH!" at the end, giving it all a very comical feel; whereas this version seems to portray the psychology behind it all a lot more clearly.
Yeah, I LOVE the dub, and even I wasn't particularly happy with that change. They could have done worse, of course, but even subtle changes have concequences.
You're so right - This is not saying that the dubs are bad in general, but they're not in the position to "correct" an Artwork like EVA by randomly inserting stuff like they see it fit! This isn't comical or erotic, it is a very DEPRESSING scene about misunderstanding and the hardship of human communication - these two actually have the hots for each other, but they both royally fail to communicate that to each other - they've kissed, but they're both feeling unloved afterwards.
