Why does Asuka become strangle?
>>150757915
shut the fuck up you freaking retard
>>150757915
She is shit.
>>150757976
>She is Rei
?
>>150757915
Are you serious, or just memeing?
>>150757915
Was Anno a genius? Almost 20 years later and dumbass weeaboos are still actually discussing his work.
>>150757915
It was her fetish according to some anon here.

From a thematic point, Shinji killing Asuka is a representation of his rage-filled rejection of the shitty, flawed world that he lives in, which outwardly seems to hate him and bring unending harm to him, but that he subconsciously realizes is not evil and actually cares deeply for him.
Asuka being alive post Instrumentality shows that at the last moment Shinji comes to the realization that he does not hate the world and wants to hold onto it in some form in the face of the introspective loneliness which Rei represents as the figurehead of the Instrumentality itself.
In other words, Rei killing everyone represents Shinji's mental barriers keeping everyone out and destroying his connection to the world, while Asuka is the single connection he held onto and is also an Eve like figure to Shinji's Adam, a metaphorical chance to recreate the world (with Rei representing Adam's first wife Lillith if you take the Kabbalah references seriously)
There's also some crackpot pregnancy theories largely planted by Anno to fuck with people. Asuka's period cramps are meant to drive home her feminity in a negative imposing way but shouldn't be read into further than that imo. And herp derp "kimochi warui"

>>150757915
Why do you post this every day? Fuck off.
Mods should be banning recurring bait threads like this.
>>150757915
Becouse she is a cunt.
>>150759100
So in a way she's his anchor in reality? That's kind of cute, in a messed up way.
IT'S JUST A PRANK BRO
>>150758955
Haha yeah she loves to feel Shinji's strong hands wrap tightly around her neck.
>>150763668
>The grip strength of a chronic masturbator amplified by a giant robot.
Reminder that Shinji is straight.

>>150765615My plug or yours?
>>150765129
What episode of Evangelion is this?
>>150765881
The episode before Shinji gets married.
>>150757915
It's not asuka, it's a combination of Rei, Asuka, and Misato. Listen.
>>150761812
>>150766054
That's one of the dumbest crackpot theories straight out of Evageeks that I've ever heard. It's just Asuka. Not because her and Shinji are destined to luuv each other or something sappy, but because they were the first to reject Instrumentality due to their desire to continue being individuals.
>>150757915
because her mother hung herself and Shinji is now possessed by Asuka's mom's soul.
>>150766368
Asuka luuuuuuuuvs Shinji
>>150766368
>I wouldn't mind rejecting Instrumentality and tumbling down to the bottom with you
>That's how I feel right now
>>150765945
>>150765129
>>150766483
Didn't Asuka say she would rather die than be in instrumentality with Shinji?
And then just her luck, she's stuck on the beach with him.
Being Asuka is suffering.
>>150766520
That's why Shinji deleted her existence from Rebuild and replaced her with Shikinami.
I feel bad for her, she literally got erased from the franchise.
>>150766541
Clearly Soryu became Mari and Shinji became Kaworu.
>>150766395
>>150766604
Have you guys been smoking crack?
>>150766604
Well that would explain why Shinji got red eyes and angel powers in Rebuild.
>>150766615
No, Anno has.
>>150766615
>he doesn't know about greatest Eva fan theory
>>150766615

>his virgin soul is untouched by evageeks or tvtropes
>>150766820
>autism tropes
>>150766741
Going back and rewatching the scene from 2.0, Shinji actually makes a comment when he listens to the SDAT player after Mari hands him it. The track switches to 27 and he says "Weird..."
>>150766741
I'm telling you idiots, Mari is a secret angel done somewhat properly this time. Obvs Kaworu was an angel, that was no twist, everyone knew that faggot was an angel the minute he stepped on screen on that fucking log overhanging the lake.
But Mari, she's just been stealthily hanging around like a useless alley cat, and she exhibits enhanced Eva knowledge and also she never ages. She's the one who casr Kaworu down, and she's going to wind up getting crushed by Asuka.
>>150766879
So does that mean Mari is like the traitor clown from space station 13? Or a 'ling?
>>150766879
>on that fucking log overhanging the lake
It was a headless angel statue you fucking retard.
Do you even SYMBOLISM.
>>150767093
We get it, you think Kaworu likes giving things head. Go away.
>>150766620
Not really, Shinji's the one character who was provably born. There's the photo in 3 and the lore entry of Yui and Gendo talking baby names that he downloaded the first time he blacked out in Unit 1.
>>150767412
Then why does he have a core, here: >>150766541?
>>150767322
You'd have to be mentally ill to mistake a clearly detailed statue for a log.
>>150767489
>it's a faggot calling other people mentally ill episode
Herpa derpa durr, sorry I don't remember what specific kind of object the the guy was sitting on.
>>150767444
Because his Unit synced with him.
>>150757915
Because her soft pink wasn't there to defend her.
>>150767585
It was panned over like 5 times, you'd have to be a complete retard to forget that.
Though I guess that goes with saying considering your posting style.
>>150767412
And I think this is interesting but nobody else cares; Yui's tasting surnames, too. Ikari is Gendo's family and she takes his name in this continuity, neither family was clearly more prestigious as in NGE and they didn't marry until after Second Impact. So basically nothing from previous versions of their background applies and it's unclarified which of them was already in on the conspiracy if not both.
>>150767883
I kinda want this to be a thing. Mari is based.
>>150768832
Lood. Bless you for the filename.
>>150768976
I've got your back anon
I want to ask about just one thing.
Does Aska marry Shinji?
>>150769714
No, but there's a doujin for that too.
>>150769836
> No
Fuck.Fuck.Fuck
>>150769714
Nobody knows
they just kinda appreciate one another
what's next is a secret
>>150769894
Don't take this the wrong way, but I'm getting serious deja vu from (you). Like, actual physical deja vu.
>>150770430
Deja vu?I've just been in this place before!
(Higher on the street!)
And I know it's my time to come home!
Calling you!
And the subject's a mystery!
(Standing on my feet!)
It's so hard when I try to believe!
Whooooaaa!!
Should I read the manga lads?
>>150770521
It's not canon, but it has a few things done right
such asKaji's backstory, more interactions between Shinji and Rei (although in pretty retarded way), and flashbacks with Yui
But I disliked it in general
>>150770521
The chapters where Gendo and Kaji call Shinji a shithead are pretty good. So is Asuka's last fight. Some other fights are neato too.
>>150770588
>>150770595
I'll give it a try then, thanks
>>150770521
Sure, it's not EoE, but it's not bad either.
>>150770490
Not that kind of deja vu. The kind where you just stare off into empty space for ten minutes. Like the characters themselves have a habit of doing.
>>150770992
Praise be
>>150770992
>>150771077
>>150771111
Good dubquad. Very worthy.
>>150770521
It´s the same story without the time and moneycrunch as well as the depression. It makes more sense but Evangelion wouldn´t be so unique if it wasn´t so surreal at the end(s). I like it the most out of all the alternatives but I can see why people would give it a pass.
>>150770521
Yes.It's better than NGE.
>>150771077
>>150771111
Holy crap, absolutely solid senpai
Nice Shikibutt too
>>150771466
Good job yourself Bateman.
Shikibutt a best butt.
>>150771536
I want to fuck Shinji so badly, he's so cute.
>>150771587
Stop.
>>150771610
You can't stop true love.
>>150770992
>>150771077
>>150771111
She is really something else. Got to thank the Master for making her.
>>150771645
Oh?
>>150771797
Isn't Mari confirmed to be a lesbo thanks to the manga?
>>150771610
Sauce?
>>150771645
>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-sama like a selfish homo he is
>implying Shinji's love for Kaworu isn't actually brotherly and friendly rather than absolutely unnecessarily romantic
>implying the whole kawoshin support isn't just a joke among the staff
>implying Ikuni-sama isn't disgusted with it himself because he knows of filthy Anno's 20-year long stalking
>implying Kaworu isn't the most typical and one-dimensional shit character of the show and is only popular because of his Jesus-like escapistic nature and twinky sex appeal pandering to fujoshits
Kaworufags are sure delusionalI'll never get tired of it

>>150771927
>tfw it's actually the same kaworufag all the time
I knew it
>>150771814
Yes/No it's all in how you read it. I say yes because soft pink is pure as fuck.

Very fun manga.
>>150772017
We're all here forever. It's the curse of Eva.
>>150772072
>Yes/No it's all in how you read it.
But Sadamoto directly said it was his intention to show Mari is in love with Yui.
She likes girls, and she spent 14 years living in the same room as Asuka.
>>150772104
>Sadamoto directly said it was his intention to show Mari is in love with Yui.
I didn't know this.
Love you anon.
>>150772287
He confirmed it at an Anime con last year.
You're welcome, anon-kun.
>>150771900
Thanks, lad.
>>150772334
That's awesome. You've made my day a little brighter.
>Rebuilds & Mari
Why do they exist?
Is it a multi-million dollar ruse by the master Anno?
>>150772566
He said recently that he's happy to take money for the series and that he wants it to be as well established and enfranchised as Gundam. So yes. And I'm fine with that.
>>150772600
That's fine but why does Mari exist?
>>150772647
Because she's cute and she fills the gap that is left behind when Shinji is missing. They needed someone for Asuka to work with.And for awesome yuri loving
>>150772566
Because ruining your childhood once apparently wasn't enough.
>>150772714
Ewwwwww a slut
>>150772748
Nah she's best girl by far
>>150772708
>lol so randumb xD le curazee grill with glasses but also sekret angent OC donut steel
You need to leave.
Why is Gendo considered to be out of Instrumentality? Supposedly that happens to him as punishment for his treatment of Shinji, but I never knew how did it come to this.
>>150772647
They wanted to give Asuka her own Kaworu
>>150772835
Eva is stupid and overrated. Everything is about sex and there's no subtlety. People just like it because of >muh mech nostagia and >muh deep symbolism-filled Chinese cartoon
>>150772868
Out.
>>150773002
Why so triggered?
>>150773152
The existence of Mari triggers me beyond belief, anon.
>>150773208
Evidently
why do people this shinji kills her? She speaks right at the end calling him pathetic
>>150772844
He's not, he's the furthest thing from Shinji's thoughts and Yui's smiling serenely at him while he soliloquizes about his guilt and disbelief in love, then he's collected in the only way he can personally accept.
Best song confirmed.

Right? Even that scene when it plays and Asuka is running for Wunder and Mari is grabbing Shinji? Chills.
