>Yūko Miyamura, Asuka's Japanese voice actress, said "Asuka wasn't the most open-hearted character I've ever met...every time I tried to draw myself in closer synchronization, Asuka would never allow herself to sync with 'me'... One day, I figured out that there was a wall in Asuka's heart".[6][7] Much later, she stated that work on the series was "very hard" and that at times she had "wanted to erase Evangelion."[8] Asuka's English voice actress, Tiffany Grant, felt that playing Asuka was "refreshing", as "she says the most horrible things to people, things that you'd like to say to people and can't get away with."[9]
What are your thoughts on Asuka /a/?
What a load of bullshit
Read the fuckin' lines, it ain't that hard
She's the poster child for worst girls.
It's bullshit. She's just trying to make Asuka look like a deep character when she's just a one dimensional waifubait.
>>150679938
>>150679925
Yūko took the character right, Asuka is a scared child who won't consciously open to anyone (although subconsciously she tries to open up to Shinji). Abuja and Shinji are two ways of one tragedy, they are the same at the core and both of them built walls around their hearts. Shinji tries to be valued by others by doing what others tell him (scenes with him admitting he is needed to pilot the Eva, cell scene etc.). Asuka tries to be valued by being the best. But none want to be close to people, since they are both mentally scarred and scared children (that's why Asuka distances herself by acting offensively). The fear of rejection comes from childhood traumas. Shinji was abandoned by his father and Asuka faced much more disturbing thing. My God, I was crying after 22nd episode, it was impossible, poor child. I love Asuka and want to hug her so much and tell her it's okay to not be alone.

Is Tiffany Grant still obsessed with Asuka?
>>150681438
Tif is really fucking short.
>>150682176
I haven't talked to her in years, but I would think so. Her Asuka love is rivaled only by her Hello Kitty obsession.

Shikinami is generic shit
Original Asuka is a good flawed character that beta faggots can't tolerate because they project themselves on Shinji and can't handle aggressive women
>>150683779
Childhood is when you discuss Rei vs Asuka
Adulthood is when you realize Ritsuko is the best girl.

>What are your thoughts on Asuka /a/?
Terrible character.
I wonder how both of them feel now that Asuka basically has a girl friend who she's lived with for 14 freaking years. Is she even as messed up as she was in the original in Rebuild? I guess it all depends if they're Shinji shippers or just want Asuka to be happy. I know english Shinji hates the character but japanese Shinji seems to take it a bit to seriously if that thing about them having a break down after the third movie was true.
>>150690397

>>150679892
> What are your thoughts on Asuka /a/?
I'd masturbate to her tits / 10
>>150690554
She's like Haruhi but with an actual background.
Seeing as how long 3.0+1.0 is taking to come out and seeing how this topic is related to Asuka's Japanese voice actress. Is she even going to be able to voice asuka by the time they reach that stage in production? I remember reading that she had a bit of trouble on 3.33.
>>150690668
I know all about your little jerk-off fantasies about me. Go ahead, and do it like you always do... I'll even stand here and watch you. But... if I can't have you all to myself, then I don't want ANYTHING from you.
>>150690561
Asuka's seiyuu is a vocal Kaworu x Shinji shipper, so she's probably happy about Asuka being a lesbo.
>>150690809
Why the fuck do she and Mari still look like teenagers when they should be in their 20's by now? They even act like teenagers still
>>150687792
Fucking Jav audio.
God damn.
Why can't they just moan like normal people.
GOD fucking dammit. Such a waste.
>>150690939
Did you watch the fucking movie? Piloting Eva makes you into a pseudo-angel and you stop aging.
>>150690554
Cuck

>>150690806
Oi, oi. That's not how you address the audience. You have to have someone else set up the scene. You have to wait until they're a few posts in and have a false sense of security before you can demand to be held.

Yeah it's super lame how tsun a cups and some red hair is all that you need to turn on people on this site. Otaku sure are the best way to disgust women.
Reminder that Shinji is straight.
>>150687792
>0DB0A31
umm what is this supposed to be?
>>150694800
Straight for Kaworu.
>>150690809
nice head wanking, but we know that aint gonna happen.
>>150694876
what is this supposed to be? isnt that shinji and asuka's daughter with Kaworu now? but kaworu it's a fucking eldritch creature, the primogenitor and.... oh man.
>>150694980
It's not?
>>150695018
Nah, Shinji grew boobs in EoE so he's a girl now.
>>150690776
Seriously though I think they might have to change it. Can older women legitimately voice teenagers? I don't mean 30 or even 40 year olds. She's 44 years old by now and realistically might be a lot closer to 50 than 40 by the time this actually happens.
Would seem weird though...
>>150695094
>>150695056
>>150694876
this is a /co/ psyop
Mari is a secret angel that will betray Asuka, just like Kaworu did to Shinji. That's why she never ages.
>>150695224
So does that mean Asuka will also fall in love with Mari like Shinji did with Kaworu?
>>150694846
>he doesn't know
>>150695274
shinji never loved kaworu
>>150695511
Yeah, he just said he loved Kaworu for shits and giggles.
>>150695640
shinji luuvs asuka
>>150695640
The point is that by the time Kaworu shows up, Shinji is such a wreck. He has been hurt and bullied by pretty much all the other characters throughout the show. When Kwaro shgows up and doesn't want anything from him, he overreacts.In the end, Kawaoru manipulated Shinji too, just like everyone else.
>>150695760
Should honestly add a filter for this ship garbage phrase that keeps getting spammed.
>>150695880
you can't stop me, I always alter the number of u's in luuuuvs
>>150695880
It's just one underage newfag spamming it
Well, I like Asuka. At least she's a character to remember, Rei looks...irrevelant compared to her. She's barely saying anything and stuff.
One of the better characters you'll find in anime. Just reacting with annoyance at her personality is to completely miss the point of the character.
>>150695999
Give that anon a cookie.
>>150695828
Kaworu was the only one who genuinely loved Shinji for who he was and didn't try to force him to change into something he didn't want to be.
If Shinji loving someone who makes him smile and feel good about himself is somehow wrong to you, then that's pretty fucked up dude.
>>150679892
I read Epilogue of Evangelion yesterday and it almost had me in tears by the end. Better written than Retake in my opinion, they way they captured Asuka's character and the way Shinji acts towards her after his revelations feel pretty true to the series.
>>150696068
>>150695828
Well, it's true that Shinji is a wreck at the time. Everyone are bullying or ignoring him.
>>150695948
Rei is a shitty toilet
>>150696145
>>150696176
No need to be mean dude.
It's just Asuka > Rei in my opinion.
>>150696068
I guess the point I was trying to make was that Shinji is emotionally broken, even more than usual, by the time Kaworu shows up. Anyone who showed him just a bit of kindess would have gotten under Shinji's skin.
>>150696150
>>150696256
So he's in the same state as most anons here.
Take your average anon, who is a nervous wreck with no friends or significant others who love him.
If some pretty girl were to suddenly come along and be nice to you, and you fell in love with her, would that not be genuine love to you?
Because that's the exact same circumstances that Shinji fell for Kaworu.
>>150696199
No, but you just netted yourself a nice ban at any rate, Xpearse.
>>150696256
You're right. He liked Kaworu just because he was nice to him. Well, why everyone had to treat Shinji like a shit?
>>150696038
Should we add an upvote button just for you?

>>150693149

>>150696326
He liked Kaworu before he was being nice to him.
He started blushing at him as soon as he saw him, so he also thought he was attractive.
>>150696382
I was implying waifu, anon.
No one wants 3DPD scum here.
>>150696352
Nah, that was just to show my appreciation to that opinion. Is that a problem?
>>150696411
Somehow I'm not surprised that crackshipping trash are phoneposters.
>>150696506
Mari x Asuka is canon
Reminder that Shinji is 100% straight.
>>150696437
I see it in the other thread too, anon. I'm not laughing.
>>150696689
This shows he always fantasized about become a girl.
And then he gets boobs in this one scene in EoE.
So technically he is straight as long as he still wants to get dicked by Kaworu as a grill.
Mari is dogshit.
>>150696723
Huh? What thread? Sorry, I'm not posting here very often, usually just reading.
>>150696750
Mari is a confirmed dyke.
You really think she didn't try anything for 14 years while they shared the same room?
Asuka has been converted.
>>150696838
It's an anon copying my responses in >>150659000
>>150696871
And I shared a room with my brother for some 12 years, we certainly didn't "try" anything. Might as kill yourself crackshipping scum. Fuck off.

I don't care what would anyone think. And I was there for a really short time. I agree these boards are pure shit.
>>150697186
See, I'd agree with you more if you said fujoshi.. Doesn't stop it from being the behemoth that it is, anyway, and creating the characters that Rei pretty blatantly ripped off.
>>150679892
Does she think she's a VA, or a fucking EVA?
>>150697223
Stop trying to damage control. Stop posting and lurk some more.
>>150697291
Nope. If there's a thread about anime I watched, why shouldn't I reply?
Not that you can stop me. Don't be so salty, man.
>>150697239
Asuka ripped them off too
>>150697392
Fuck off.
>>150697654
Sure.
>>150697476
Not really. Four Murasame and the Purus were effectively Rei before she was even a thing. The fact you haven't even named any character is testament to the fact you probably haven't even watched any Gundam besides maybe Wing as a kid.

He's concealing a boner.
>>150687196
no, she married that fat oaf ADR director who worked on the english dub. in the DVD commentaries, she teases him suggesting she does lewd things with asuka figurines. he kinda as a eyeroll reaction, but you just know he loves that shit in bed.
>>150698243
Why would you spoonfeed? It's pretty hard not to hear of Matt Memefield in the fandom.
Asuka is the only reason to watch EVA.
The first few episodes without her are pretty boring.

Kaji didn't.

>kawoshin
>implying "romantic" context of Shinji and Kaworu's relationship wasn't completely unnecessary and wasn't added there just because Anno wanted to self-insert his dirty fantasies about Ikuni like a selfish homo he is

>implying the whole kawoshin movement isn't a joke among the staff
>implying Ikuni isn't disgusted with it himself because he knows of filthy Anno's stalking for him for over 20 years

Fujoshis will never admit that they're living in delusion. >>150696689
>>150690476
Miyamura has referred to herself as Asuka's mama before
>>150695018
That's not Shinji or Kaworu. It's a spin-off about a girl named Sakura who's obsessed with Eva pachinko and her coworker who just happens to look exactly like Karl
>>150700592
I think it's made pretty clear in the manga she tries to put herself as Asuka rather than Kyoko.
>>150700226
The worst part is Kaworu almost conned Shinji into destroying mankind. Immortal love set aside, he was an opportunist who came at just the right moment to damage NERV from the inside.
Way I see it, and I could bee wrong, is Shinji killing Kaworu is one of the few character defining moments when Shinji puts his job and responsibility in front of his own personal feelings. He was ready to commit something he personally saw as an evil act in order to guarantee the survival of others.
>>150696326
>Well, why everyone had to treat Shinji like a shit?
He was the center of Instrumentality, everyone was either lying to or manipulating him to achieve their own ends. Ironically enough the only people who remained true to him in the end were Misato, Asuka, and Rei.
>>150700791
Kaworu came at just the right moment because Seele planned it to be the right moment. It was the last move they needed to put Nerv in checkmate, but they still weren't able to stop Shinji from hijacking everything.
And ultimately, Shinji does not kill Kaworu for the greater good. He did it because Kaworu betrayed him and knew that their friendship had just been a facade to manipulate him.
>>150696145
what is this epilogue you speak of?
>>150701022
This. If Shinji hadn't been broken and was able to launch in End of Eva, the SSDF would have been crushed and probably the Eva Series too.
>>150701201
Epilogue of Evangelion is a doujin. I believe it's by Pengel.
>>150701201
It's a SFW 700 page doujinshi about Asuka and Shinji coming to terms and travelling the world after End of Evangelion. It's on sadpanda.
The ending is a little wonky but it's worth a read. Has some references to spinoffs but is generally just well-written fanfiction with the characters feeling very much like their real selves.
>>150701222
Shinji arrived to that fight on a mile-tall pillar of light at the heart of a hurricane and it didn't matter, lance came from space and stopped him from making a move. There was never a way for him to win that, the power he had and would need to put down 9 zombie evas gets him shut down in an instant and skycrucified exactly as Seele planned.
>>150701366
But will I hate myself for reading it?

>>150702171
Nah, it's heartwarming and revolves around Asuka and Shinji finally talking out their problems. You might cri if you have a weak heart.
>>150701937
Even if they managed to beat all or most of the MPEs, Gendo would still have fused Adam and Lilith and Rei woud have used Shinji as the catalyst. I'm not even sure why the MPEs were involved in the ritual besides to look cool making the Tree of Life.
Either way, the only way they could have aborted Third Impact is by both stopping Gendo and the MPEs. I think that happens in Anima because Kaji exposes Seele and Instrumentality to the JP government, which is the only part of those novels that makes sense.

MPs were made to capture Eva-01 after it fully activated and was disabled, provoke it to spread the wings if need be, manipulate it from the outside, and propagate the anti-AT field like they were already doing. Seele were planning a much smaller Eva-only spectacle, they didn't make any move on Terminal Dogma, Gendo almost yanked everything out from under them at the last second because trying to domesticate Lilith herself was crazier than they were willing to believe he was.
