@augusta005 She might've assumed they had real pilots; I don't know about you, but having my head impaled by 10 giant spikes, even if I was just feeling the pain, would sure as hell disable me; I doubt many 15 years olds could stand that, either. Just her luck Seele viewed the dummy plug's overly aggressive tendencies a plus.
i was confused also there is a original series with like 26 eps and they made a movie with a alternet ending cus no one liked the ending i the original series now i guess there doing the whole thing again in 3 movies with another ending lol i think
@666ToyotaSupra The original series ending pissed people off, since it was bizarre and didn't really conclude anything; EoE was Anno going 'fine, assholes, here's your ending,' since he'd received death threats over the ending, or something. Rebuild is more of a reimagining; it's been described as Evangelion on its meds, and most of the characters are more stable, and the plot's really diverged the original series as of 2.0.
I've never watched EVA and now with all the remakes I feel like there's a whole lot to dig in just one sitting. Can someone give me a brief summary? Are 2.2, 3.3 etc remakes or sequels or what? Why are those robots bleeding and why does the girl also take damage? Why are 12 year olds controlling robots
@AzteKpr1de Bro me or anyone else could not even begin to explain what this show is...Watch the original show then end of evangelion then death and rebirth then the new rebuild movie series you are not alone and you can not advance. and yes the new movies are remakes with some alterations to the story. theres 2 more suppose to be coming out real soon but start out with what i said. and if your still lost then Wiki it.
@ColoneIRadec FYI i'm 16 since age seems to be an important factor for you. Perhaps its because despite having valid reasons, most of which i agree with, you need to make yourself seem superior which had nothing to do with the argument. And as for unlikeable characters, my favorite in the series was Asuka. "Why?" you may be asking? Well its simply because she had a reason to be the way she was. IMO she had a more dificult life than Shinji.
@LeafNinja3395 I never said age was important, I simply suggested that if you were 24 years old and have that many errors in your comments, you should educate yourself a small bit.
I don't know what your favorite character in the series has to do with your earlier assertions about the show. Does the criticism lie within the claim that Asuka's emotions were more justified than Shinji's?
@ColoneIRadec The fact that you're resorting to using gramatical errors as replys to opinions based on a show just shows how immature you are. Sorry but i no longer feel it is necessary to try to explain anything to you. Your are obviously incapable of having someone disagree with you.
@LeafNinja3395 I'm not resorting to anything, resorting would imply I was losing in some manner. But it was only a small part of four large comments explaining why I liked the show so much.
I don't think it's immaturity, either. Anything to help you fix your English has little to do with immaturity on my part. If you want to insult people based on maturity, you should look at your age and then your English.
I am capable, but I also like to argue. It's useful to express myself.
But more importantly, for me at least, it does show a positive transition in the protagonist (the series ending), in which he learns to overcome the "Hedgehog's Dilemma." It references Shakespearean philosophy in doing this as well. It showed a transition from a rather unlikable character to a character that you could actually understand during the middle of the series. Whichever ending someone wishes to choose is rational in my opinion, they all follow logically, but the series... (continues)
1. The soundtrack, I've yet to hear very many soundtracks produce music that has made me feel such things. I believe Heisoku no Kakudai and Thanatos were very good pieces of music, if you dislike them, I would like to hear why.
2. The philosophical points and even social points it brings up, the topics include very interesting discussions on solipsism, artificial happiness (the critique of heaven), and arguably, a reference to the people who masturbate to anime. (This list continues.)
As for it not being a "masterpiece," what problems did you have exactly, besides unverifiable assumptions? Just claiming that the series (not the movie) had budget problems doesn't exactly say that it was a bad ending.
Anno milked it, I believe it's sufficient and humorous to say, The Simpsons did it.
The Transformers remakes do not mean that they believe the original Transformers cartoons were bad, you know. Retelling a story is fun, masterpieces do not have to be "perfect."
And the series was "mature" to begin with, you could tell from the beginning the characters psyches were far from normal. I think that I can believe rationally that it was a depiction of Anno's former battle with depression.
EoE discusses a great philosophical points as well during the second half of the movie, and in the last few episodes of the series ending. Regarding the episodes "past 19" as the downfall is even more silly than your unsubstantiated claims, LeafNinja.
@ColoneIRadec Obviously your only knowledge of the show is whatever you could find on youtube and wiki. If you knew anything about the show's history, the company who made it came under fire from parents due to the sure becoming "too mature" given the time slot it was shown. That was PART of why they ran out of money. Also, had the show been the "masterpiece" so many fans think it is, there would be no reason to make Evangelion 1.0. btw theres this thing called a "reply button"
@LeafNinja3395 "Obviously your only knowledge of the show is whatever you could find on youtube and wiki." It's not obvious if you can't even demonstrate why, and how ironic you still haven't substantiated your empty claim that they were "trying to be x" or "trying to do x." It puts a smile on my face to see arguments being tossed aside like rotting garbage in the face of logic.
As far as Anno deciding to make rebuild, I'd milk the series for all it is worth as well.
@ColoneIRadec Also, my "unsubstantiated claims" where OPINIONS. Sorry for asumuing u knew what "IMO" stands for. Obviously i was expecting too much from someone who needs to rush to save they're show from being criticized. And out of curiosity what anime qualify as "good" in ur OPINION.
@LeafNinja3395 Regardless of you stating it was just your opinion, you went on to say that it was NOT a masterpiece because of so. I believe this warrants a good mocking.
@ColoneIRadec Hmm... well your obviously a fanboy. I never said Evangelion was bad. Its actually VERY good but does not deserve to be called "THE GREATES ANIME EVER" like so many people claim it to be. Its one of the better anime out there without a doubt but is not a masterpiece in my opinion. I'm not saying you can't think of it as one. What i'm wondering is what makes it a "masterpiece" in your view.
@LeafNinja3395 I think you should look into studying the English language a bit more Leaf, you make a lot of errors that I don't think a normal 24 year old from the US should be making, but if you're just visiting, I suppose you're pretty good.
I'm in no way a fanboy, I just recognize good art when I happen to find it.
Nice, still, I never said it was the greatest, but I definitely believe that it is one of the greatest.
@LeafNinja3395 ...did have some budget cuts. Regardless, I still believe it was a good ending to a very good show. I myself prefer the movie's ending over the one in the series.
Rejection of Human Instrumentality would appear to give the protagonist much more of a spine, along with artwork, philosophy, characters, story, and music to match. What more could you ask of a show?
Regarding Anno making a remake, have you not even seen all of the terrible remakes of classics, LeafNinja? This argument is INCREDIBLY invalid, I'm sorry.
Okay WOULD SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME HOW THOSE FUCKERS MANAGED TO RESURRECT THEMSELVES AFTER ASUKA BEAT THE FUCK OUT OF THEM ALL! The on top of that where in the fuck did the Lance come from.
@Godzilla2000X Actually, they're called S2 engines, which were harvested from one of the previous angels just as Eva-01 harvested one from Zeruel. Asuka had no idea they had them.
People keep going on about the story of evengelion, but I didnt understand much after that psycological mumbo jumbo. AND JUST HOW THE HELL AM I SUPOSED TO UNDERSTAND A GIANT NUDE REI!
So is it fair to say this happened: This movie ended with Asuka dying. It was meant to shock the audience. It was shocking and so this movie became a hit, meaning there was good financial reason to make a sequel. Also, audiences were unhappy that she died. Sooo....... despite the fact that she died, the film maker just brought her back with bandages, like a 3 stooges movie or warner brothers cartoon? Is it fair to say something like that happened? In which case, she did die here at first
@Floodlezoot Yep, thats pretty much what happend. On a totally unrelated note Aerith from final fantasy seven didn't permenantly die in the original japanese version of the game, she was resurected towards the end. However through some major error the english translations of the game didn't have this sequence, Making her death one of the most memorable in videogame history.
Okay so not incredibly relevant, Just thought it was worth mentioning.
Can someone here tell me which scene/movie/whatever it is where Asuka is laying over Shinji and I believe they have no clothes on, and she is yelling at him? I don't remember having seen it and it's confusing.
@LeafNinja3395 There is no possible way I could disagree more. Life is brutal sometimes. And the fact that the end of the world was near meant that something like this was bound to happen. Of course, that's if you want a REALISTIC account. If you don't, you can pretend that Asuka won and all the pilots and NERV personnel lived happily ever after. Amen.
This scene is a masterpiece inside of a masterpiece (movie) inside of a masterpiece (series). It's the fucking Russian doll set of anime!
@wmotamedi The show is NOT a masterpiece. It HAD great potential to be a master piece but in the end it did not pull through. And saying u want a "REALISTIC account" in a sc-fi mecha show with aliens is not a valid argument. Asuka's death was just to shock the audience and get more people to watch the movie since they wanted to make money after the massive loss during the ending of the show. Calling this show a masterpiece is like saying every anime that kills main characters is a masterpiece.
@LeafNinja3395 And? What was holding it back from being, by your standards, a "masterpiece"? Just saying it didn't pull through isn't strong enough to help your argument in the slightest. Furthermore, "realistic" in the context I used it in is to be taken with a grain of salt. To make sense, I should have said "letting the main characters always live in every anime portrays a perverse view of the human condition." And you're right, that is not enough to christen it with the "masterpiece" label.
@LeafNinja3395 Neon Genesis Evangelion: The End of Evangelion is much more conclusive than the series' pathetic ending, which is why I consider it to be the true episodes 25 and 26. If we are to overlook the pretentiousness and complete inability to explain why Seele and Nerv's motives had taken a U-turn for disaster, the show definitely has merit.
@wmotamedi What was holding it back was the complete nonsense of the idea that making a movie with as much killing as posible just to cover up the series' pathetic ending. Sure i understand not every main character can live, actually killing main characters often makes a show more interesting because it asures you that no one is safe. I'm not saying Asuka HAD to live, but the way she was killed off seemed too over the top and made it seem like it was trying too hard to be a mature..
@wmotamedi a mature movie. I WAS all for the idea of Evangelion becoming a darker series but most of the movie seemed uncalled for. The series (up till i believe episode 19 when Shinji was forced to attack his friend due to the "dummy plug") was VERY good but the sudden U-turn in the entire series seemed way too rushed to give it any merit IMO.
@LeafNinja3395 How does a change in direction make it seem as if it was rushed to you? I may not speak for people such as yourself, but I see EoE as one of the greatest anime movies, if not one of the greatest movies ever created, with a soundtrack and other types of art to match.
Just because you "believe" that they were "trying to make as much killing as possible" or "shock the audience" as some sort of cash raking scam is silly. What evidence do you base your claims on?
@IronARM569 Happened several times in the series, only with Shiniji (it only happened to Asuka in this movie.) Asuka's synch with the robot must have been well over 100% because she suffered its lance wound directly. But when Evangelions switch off they lose all synch with the pilot. Basically, the Evangelion (her mom) went into a "berserker" mode despite its depleted power to protect Asuka, but it was too late.
Gotta love this fight. When you watch it, you BELIEVE 2 things that big are actually fighting it out. In Rebuild they kind of just jump really high and then rub against each other until the other dies.
In the original series to EVA-02 piloted by Asuka. Zeruel cuts his arms and head to the EVA-02 and is easily defeated.
In the second movie, Rebuild of Evangelion. The EVA-02 piloted by Mari. Zeruel cuts one arm and one side and a eye the EVA-02. In spite of that, it can keep fighting until the energy runs out. Mary was not easily defeated.
In this movie (End of Evangelion) Azuka, was close to winning on the Mass-Evas. If Mari fight against Mass-Evas probably would win more easily.
I don't get it, can some please tell me why these robots have guts and blood?
And btw, very awful death of Asuka...
@IronARM569: I haven't ever seen NGE, but I think she was still linked because the last remaining piece of power reactivated when her robots eyes turned on again
@XTobiT3X Evangelions are "biomechanic" beings. In fact, they seem to be more organic than robot, and the outside pieces are just armor. The cockpits are separate capsules that are inserted into their backs, not part of the EVAs themselves.
Is she.. erm - connected with the robot somehow? So she feels what happens with the robot... and feels her organs getting out etc? Cuz if yes, that would suck...
@khadeem5 But her arm didn't split in two... right? Besides, can't she... unplug? It would suck if you can't. I'm asking cuz I'm wandering if I should buy a robot for myself :D
@MrAnnaX lol i don't think you should . evangelion is pretty complicated. The first time I watched the series it took me a while to figure out what was happening. but I think that the pilots can feel the pain is because of the synchronization rate. i guess you can say there souls are connected to the eva.
@aaroncoward Yeah, the idea itself is a bit messed up. Let's say: Once they enter it they won't be able to disconnect, to "unplug". That would make sence, but if they can just leave it once the power is down, why don't they do it. I'm sure they'll find a way to survive...
*growl* If I was there and saw that......I would've gone berserk until those MONSTERS.....ARE....ALL.......RIPPED.....APART...PIECE....BY...PIECE...LIMB...TO........LIMB...RIB...BY......RIB......HEY MASS PRODUCTION EVA'S I AM COMING FOR YOU MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA 8)
I keep watching this and I still don't understand how the EVAs series do to come back after being defeated... Maybe I have to continue on watching it and I'll suddenly find the answer...
@Kitty4Catz The EVA Series were fitted with manufactured S2 Engines, which essentially make them immortal. All of the Angels have S2 Engines, which are presumably a part of their cores. That's why an Angel's core has to be destroyed for it to die. Asuka unfortunately didn't destroy any of the cores during this fight and they all regenerated.
@Capricornicated I always thought it had something to do with Lilith and Adam combining i.e. S2 engines are from Adam, and Eva units came from Lilith. That was also one of the reasons Gendo fused Adam into his arm and wanted to merge with Lilith (to become like a god), but she rejected him and ultimately fused with Shinji.
@Capricornicated That wasn't Unit 05. Bardiel took over Unit 03, which then became 01's dinner. Provisional Unit 05 was the four-legged, wheel-footed EVA piloted by Mari in the beginning of Rebuild 2.22.
And actually, half the reason for the dark spots on Asuka's Plug Suit shortly before being impaled is from being torn open when Unit 02 was, and the rest is the massive amounts of blood pouring from her eyesocket... I can't imagine how much that would hurt.
@kajen17 Despite losing operational power she must have maintained synchronization with Unit 02. Otherwise you'd think once losing power her nerve connections would have been severed and she'd no longer feel the effects of everything else that happened after being pierced by the Lance. Going Berserker definitely wasn't in her favor, which is probably further reason why Maya was urging her to stop.
@Capricornicated If her synchronization rate was above 100%, it is possible that she wouldn't lose connection with the EVA, as long as it didn't reach 400%, because we all know what happened to Shinji when he did that. He became one with EVA-01 for a while, and continued moving with no power left.
@EnterpriseKnight It may only be shadows, but her right hand is also clutching her torso and you can see what looks like blood spreading on her plug suit under her hand... she was also feeling the effects of being gutted.
@EnterpriseKnight Not just her eye, under her hand, her suit is covered in blood from her body simulating the damage done when they ripped the EVA to pieces, to think she was even alive enough to try and raise her hand up again afterwards is amazing.
Hey, can I ask where you got this from? Was this from an imported dvd or a torrent? Because I'm having trouble finding a good end of eva torrent, and all of them say renewal even though they're not.
Why does everyone say the MP Evas are vicious, persistent bastards? She took out at least 8 of them in less than 4 minutes! A single Angel gives them more of a problem!
@Hiveslayer18989 Aside from the fact that they can regenerate their bodies, the Lance of Longinus was more of a problem for Asuka than the mass-produced Eva series. Plus, since her cable was cut, her fate was inevitable. I can conceive of no logical way for her to achieve victory, even if the lance had never appeared.
After watching this scene a few times I have one question, who the hell threw the weapon at Asuka that turned into the lance of longinus? All of them were defeated except the one she was squeezing to death, soooooo what happened there???
@acrazyplayer0 I'd say it would have to be one of the lesser-damaged ones, such as the one that got cut from shoulder almost to the waist, or even the one with the chopped-off leg. I've been wondering this myself for a long time.
@acrazyplayer0 i think that angel-like beings that have a lance of longinus can call forth the lance. so the lance flew to the last white eva. asuka dropped the last white eva and the lance hit asuka's a t field. it went for asuka instead because it was her a t field that it hit.
asuka would have won easily if it wasn't for the fact that the mass produced evas were invincible for some unexplained reason that just seems to be another part of the obscure story devices in end of eva
@TenebrusI07 The dummy plugs for the mass production eva say's Kowaru, you can see it when they are being deployed by the steath bombers, that might explain why they don't die. To me these(mass production evas) are the real angels because they finish the whole "human instrumentality project" thing and also because they kind of resemble angels
@Hiveslayer18989 Aren't they biomechanicals? What i meant to say is that they look like angels from the bible with their white wings and all that, not what they call angels in neon genesis evangelion series.
@Scrillls Yes, they are biological, but I meant they are are not true Angels, just synthetic copies of the designs & capabilities. I don't really see why you're bringing Bible Angels into this, I just meant they're basically man-controlled Angels, not ones sent numerically to bring about the Third Impact.
@Hiveslayer18989 It's confusing talking about two different kinds of angels but all Im trying to say is that they look like what angels are usually depicted as in religious pictures with their feathery white wings, which kind of makes sense because of all the religious symbolism in this series. Mass production evas are not man controlled, they use dummy plugs that say "Kaworu" like Gendo when he used a "Rei" dummy plug on eva 01. I apologize, sometimes it's hard to explain things over youtube.

@LeafNinja3395 ...did have some budget cuts. Regardless, I still believe it was a good ending to a very good show. I myself prefer the movie's ending over the one in the series.
Rejection of Human Instrumentality would appear to give the protagonist much more of a spine, along with artwork, philosophy, characters, story, and music to match. What more could you ask of a show?

So is it fair to say this happened: This movie ended with Asuka dying. It was meant to shock the audience. It was shocking and so this movie became a hit, meaning there was good financial reason to make a sequel. Also, audiences were unhappy that she died. Sooo....... despite the fact that she died, the film maker just brought her back with bandages, like a 3 stooges movie or warner brothers cartoon? Is it fair to say something like that happened? In which case, she did die here at first

@Floodlezoot Yep, thats pretty much what happend. On a totally unrelated note Aerith from final fantasy seven didn't permenantly die in the original japanese version of the game, she was resurected towards the end. However through some major error the english translations of the game didn't have this sequence, Making her death one of the most memorable in videogame history.
Okay so not incredibly relevant, Just thought it was worth mentioning.

@LeafNinja3395 There is no possible way I could disagree more. Life is brutal sometimes. And the fact that the end of the world was near meant that something like this was bound to happen. Of course, that's if you want a REALISTIC account. If you don't, you can pretend that Asuka won and all the pilots and NERV personnel lived happily ever after. Amen.
This scene is a masterpiece inside of a masterpiece (movie) inside of a masterpiece (series). It's the fucking Russian doll set of anime!
wmotamedi 2 months ago
@wmotamedi The show is NOT a masterpiece. It HAD great potential to be a master piece but in the end it did not pull through. And saying u want a "REALISTIC account" in a sc-fi mecha show with aliens is not a valid argument. Asuka's death was just to shock the audience and get more people to watch the movie since they wanted to make money after the massive loss during the ending of the show. Calling this show a masterpiece is like saying every anime that kills main characters is a masterpiece.
LeafNinja3395 2 months ago
@LeafNinja3395 And? What was holding it back from being, by your standards, a "masterpiece"? Just saying it didn't pull through isn't strong enough to help your argument in the slightest. Furthermore, "realistic" in the context I used it in is to be taken with a grain of salt. To make sense, I should have said "letting the main characters always live in every anime portrays a perverse view of the human condition." And you're right, that is not enough to christen it with the "masterpiece" label.
wmotamedi 2 months ago
@LeafNinja3395 Neon Genesis Evangelion: The End of Evangelion is much more conclusive than the series' pathetic ending, which is why I consider it to be the true episodes 25 and 26. If we are to overlook the pretentiousness and complete inability to explain why Seele and Nerv's motives had taken a U-turn for disaster, the show definitely has merit.
wmotamedi 2 months ago
@wmotamedi What was holding it back was the complete nonsense of the idea that making a movie with as much killing as posible just to cover up the series' pathetic ending. Sure i understand not every main character can live, actually killing main characters often makes a show more interesting because it asures you that no one is safe. I'm not saying Asuka HAD to live, but the way she was killed off seemed too over the top and made it seem like it was trying too hard to be a mature..
LeafNinja3395 2 months ago
@wmotamedi a mature movie. I WAS all for the idea of Evangelion becoming a darker series but most of the movie seemed uncalled for. The series (up till i believe episode 19 when Shinji was forced to attack his friend due to the "dummy plug") was VERY good but the sudden U-turn in the entire series seemed way too rushed to give it any merit IMO.

@LeafNinja3395 How does a change in direction make it seem as if it was rushed to you? I may not speak for people such as yourself, but I see EoE as one of the greatest anime movies, if not one of the greatest movies ever created, with a soundtrack and other types of art to match.
Just because you "believe" that they were "trying to make as much killing as possible" or "shock the audience" as some sort of cash raking scam is silly. What evidence do you base your claims on?

@IronARM569 Happened several times in the series, only with Shiniji (it only happened to Asuka in this movie.) Asuka's synch with the robot must have been well over 100% because she suffered its lance wound directly. But when Evangelions switch off they lose all synch with the pilot. Basically, the Evangelion (her mom) went into a "berserker" mode despite its depleted power to protect Asuka, but it was too late.

In the original series to EVA-02 piloted by Asuka. Zeruel cuts his arms and head to the EVA-02 and is easily defeated.
In the second movie, Rebuild of Evangelion. The EVA-02 piloted by Mari. Zeruel cuts one arm and one side and a eye the EVA-02. In spite of that, it can keep fighting until the energy runs out. Mary was not easily defeated.
In this movie (End of Evangelion) Azuka, was close to winning on the Mass-Evas. If Mari fight against Mass-Evas probably would win more easily.

@XTobiT3X Evangelions are "biomechanic" beings. In fact, they seem to be more organic than robot, and the outside pieces are just armor. The cockpits are separate capsules that are inserted into their backs, not part of the EVAs themselves.

Kitty4Catz 4 months ago
@Kitty4Catz The EVA Series were fitted with manufactured S2 Engines, which essentially make them immortal. All of the Angels have S2 Engines, which are presumably a part of their cores. That's why an Angel's core has to be destroyed for it to die. Asuka unfortunately didn't destroy any of the cores during this fight and they all regenerated.
Capricornicated 4 months ago
@Capricornicated I always thought it had something to do with Lilith and Adam combining i.e. S2 engines are from Adam, and Eva units came from Lilith. That was also one of the reasons Gendo fused Adam into his arm and wanted to merge with Lilith (to become like a god), but she rejected him and ultimately fused with Shinji.

@Capricornicated That wasn't Unit 05. Bardiel took over Unit 03, which then became 01's dinner. Provisional Unit 05 was the four-legged, wheel-footed EVA piloted by Mari in the beginning of Rebuild 2.22.
And actually, half the reason for the dark spots on Asuka's Plug Suit shortly before being impaled is from being torn open when Unit 02 was, and the rest is the massive amounts of blood pouring from her eyesocket... I can't imagine how much that would hurt.
kajen17 4 months ago
@kajen17 Thanks for the correction. I was about to correct myself after re-watching the scene but you beat me to it.
Capricornicated 4 months ago
@kajen17 Despite losing operational power she must have maintained synchronization with Unit 02. Otherwise you'd think once losing power her nerve connections would have been severed and she'd no longer feel the effects of everything else that happened after being pierced by the Lance. Going Berserker definitely wasn't in her favor, which is probably further reason why Maya was urging her to stop.
Capricornicated 4 months ago
@Capricornicated If her synchronization rate was above 100%, it is possible that she wouldn't lose connection with the EVA, as long as it didn't reach 400%, because we all know what happened to Shinji when he did that. He became one with EVA-01 for a while, and continued moving with no power left.

Hiveslayer18989 6 months ago
@acrazyplayer0 i think that angel-like beings that have a lance of longinus can call forth the lance. so the lance flew to the last white eva. asuka dropped the last white eva and the lance hit asuka's a t field. it went for asuka instead because it was her a t field that it hit.

@Hiveslayer18989 It's confusing talking about two different kinds of angels but all Im trying to say is that they look like what angels are usually depicted as in religious pictures with their feathery white wings, which kind of makes sense because of all the religious symbolism in this series. Mass production evas are not man controlled, they use dummy plugs that say "Kaworu" like Gendo when he used a "Rei" dummy plug on eva 01. I apologize, sometimes it's hard to explain things over youtube.
