Why did he choke Asuka at the end like that? And why was she

Remember when he choked her earlier when he was in dreamland? He thought she was the same as back then and didn't like her saying that stuff.

Remember when everyone got tang'd? They were in a collective conscious that everyone decided was the best thing ever, but Shinji and Asuka rejected a perfectly happy life and decided to stay human. Or something like that.

Because life isn't all that bad

>>135940485
life is worse than tang life

>>135940405
I also felt like Asuka's and Shinji's interaction at the end is like a big "fuck you" to the instrumentality project.

Seele wanted the instrumentality project to achieve that whole one mind one body thing so there is no sadness or grief and shit but Shinji and Asuka worked around each other's barriers and accepted each other despite their flaws.

Y'all think before the Big Bang we were all in tang? This is probably what the story is getting at huh?

>>135940405
>>135940709

This was my interpretation as well, but this brings out the more hardcore reifags to accuse you of shipping.

I think it's really special that it ends with them just knowing what their issues are, and be able to momentarily act outside of their comfort zone.

How Disgusting is pretty much what you'd expect an extremely egotistical person to say after dropping their act for the first real time in the show. (Except for when she almost opens up to Shinji about her stepmom.

>>135939780
>Why did he choke Asuka at the end like that?
To make sure he wasn't still in Instrumentality.

>And why was she the only person besides Shinji to be alive at that point?
Anno wanted a devilman-esque ending.
People will still continue to come out afterwards.

>>135940405
Purely symbolic interpretations are for fags, they're still characters and need motivations.

>>135940041
They are the only two to decide that?

To be blunt: Anno is a plagiarist hack.

The top is from the novel 'the General Zapped An Angel.'
And the bottom is from the theatrical 'End of Evangelion'.

Why is this allowed?

Differently rotated head, different expression, a vague resemblance at the greatest.

>>135947658
By that logic, every anime has plagiarized everything.

References and homages are allowed, anon.

I don't know if anyone ever noticed before, but I suspect Evangelion might contain references to 70s science fiction. I've found one so far but there could be anywhere between some and several.

>>135940184
That's one of the morals of the story; "don't run away from challenges in life, because in the end the struggle will be worth it." They chose to roll with the punches and embrace both the highs and lows in life instead of resign themselves to comfortable oblivion.

>>135947658
That isn't plagiarism even if Anno was directly inspired by that art.

Why is this guy so critically acclaimed and praised like he was the saviour of anime? Open your eyes, you sleeping walking zombies. Anno's creativity is banal.

>>135949004
If it is of any consolation, Anno's own psychological trauma he had during his years of depression, what he felt, he instilled in Ikari, Asuka, and Rei.

And I think that is what make Evangelion memorable is the characters.

>>135949004
He is (or was, at least) a good director, watch his other stuff.

Also nobody ever calls him a saviour of anything these days.

Because human beings often hurt each other, but sometimes they don't, and that makes all the difference.

>>135939780
Because Asuka is a cunt.

>>135949004
I don't think Anno's that great though.

I'm just saying that your post is retarded.

Again, with your logic, literally every anime is plagiarizing something.

>>135950614
More people will probably choose to leave the tang.

>>135950445
>>135939780
Is it confirmed that only Asuka and Shinji returned to corporeal forms? I was under the impression that that happened to the rest of humanity as well.
>>135950673
This. Wasn't the whole point that leaving humanity as tang or returning them to their original states was Shinji's choice?

>>135940184
Being tanged is a loss of self.
The loss of your AT-field, your personal space, everything you could've called your own, 'cause there's no 'you' anymore.
The loss of any ability to reject.
Imagine having to speak out loudly every little thought you have and listen to everyone's as well.
Imagine not being ever able to avoid a social interaction you don't like.

>>135950804
Anno confirmed more people would leave the tang in that interview he had a few years ago, where he said they were thinking about making a sequel to Evangelion where the remainder of humanity fights off contaminated beings a la Shingeki on Kyojin.

Shinji was originally supposed to appear on the beach alone according to storyboards, but Anno added Asuka last minute to better convey the theme of communication.

There could already be others, all we see is a minute on one beach. What's relevant is nobody specifically Shinji wanted to see is there with him, it's just Asuka and none of the people who'd convinced him to crawl out.

>>135951312
>narutard has better taste than you

Sweet Jesus.

>>135952939
Not even him, but the Adam And Eve theory is not only wrong but blatant shippershit. Even evageeks knows it's false.

I'd repopulate the earth with Asuka even if other people started coming back. I'd repopulate with her all day all night.

With protection of course, she's a tiny girl and a baby would do unholy things to her vagina.

>>135940184
I thought it was implied that all the others would eventually follow after them, or was that a fan theory I read?

>>135940485
Any Germanfags in here?
Does anybody know why Asuka's "You're disgusting" was translated with "Mir ist schlecht" (I feel sick)?
German dubs do this a lot, have more non-confrontational wording, but I thought that was mainly in kid's shows that were aired on TV in the afternoon.
Not like any child would stumble over EoE on a Saturday morning.
Thoughts? Just a mistake?

kimochi warui doesn't exactly translate out of Japanese very well. "I feel sick" and "How disgusting" are both equally valid translations of the original.
