Shinji had lack of selfsteem, lack of will power to make a change into others lives, too coward to break his own cycle of hurting.

And im not sure if i could say asuka LOVED shinji. She had "strong emotions" about him, thats for sure.

If you watched 2.2 or 3.3 they make it a lot more apparent that she actually likes him. She competes with Rei for his attention. At one point Shinjis talking about how Rei was hurt and her hands were bandaged, next time you see Asuka, her hands are also bandaged.

You see, my reasoning is, i strongly doubt the rebuilds were planned since day 1 like the rest of the series and EoE. Its an "after-thought" sequel, with plenty of flaws. A spin off sequel that should never have been.

Given the "preview" for 3.0 was nothing like the actual thing (and seemingly, the same is happening with the 4.0 preview), I'm pretty sure Anno has no idea what the fuck he's doing.

>A spin off sequel that should never have been.

The Rebuilds had some fucking fantastic action sequences compared to NGE and EoE.

>>158679946
Yeah, but thats because kaworu was "perfect".
Misato, Rei, Asuka, all had serious flaws that scared him. Shinji wasnt strong enough to handle it, to try to help his friends overcome the problems, so he abandoned them.

Kaworu had no apparent problem, and yet showed full affection for shinji. 100% reward for 0% effort, exactly what shinji wanted. Of course he "loves" kaworu.

On the other hand, i remember some anon saying once (not sure if his own opinion or if it had some proper source), but the very fact of not trying to "calm down kaworu, find out if his "fate/instinct" to destroy the world was or wasnt inevitable", was abandoning kaworu like he did to the others. Because he didnt had the fortitude to help anyone.

Because 10 years of Shinji's life was a continuous demonstration that he wasn't wanted anywhere and nobody cared what he did or what happened to him. He improves over his 6 months in Tokyo-3, where all his good memories come from, but it doesn't flip his whole brain before that last act of the story where all his nice things are taken away.

>>158679555
It's pretty fucking obvious the Rebuilds are sequels: the children all learnt from their mistakes and their personalities shifted ever so slightly.

Compare Shinji crying for Asuka to save him in EoE, whereas in 3.33 he's trying to save everyone else.

Im not sure if the term "suicidal" is right, because i dont think he WANTS to die. He just thinks its the best alternative, the other being the destruction of humanity.

He was miserable, because he knew what he needed to do, but he also seemed to have accepted it. Your pic proves it. He smiling that scene isnt hiding it, its acceptance.

Too bad he had no idea how much he really was hurting shinji with that.

Crazy dyke.

>>158682462
Love and relationship, specially the ones that dont work out, is a legit theme in Eva. Its more than clear that asuka had strong feelings for shinji around the middle of the series before it all went to shit.

>>158681126
Is this logical?

>>158683019
Not really, i think anon is just rambling about kaworu fucking up.

>>158683019
It's sound Kaworu-logic. Life includes pain, death does not, so convincing people to kill themselves is net-positive happiness.

>>158683554
I dont think eva is tragic. There is a lot of suffering, but it ends on a message that people can improve their own lives.

Nearly nothing that happened is irreversible, its all up for the characters to go ahead and try to be happy.

>>158684176
>it ends on a message that people can improve their own lives.

EoE is unironically a masterpiece.
Anno should just make 4.0 a remastered EoE and let it all to rest.

>>158684214
Yeah, it does? It doesnt say it will WORK, but the last talk between shinji and yui is about TRYING.

EoE got released in 2 different parts, so theres an intermission.

I think he is talking about the credits that roll when shinji and 01 finally leave nerf and see dead asuka. The TV episodes still havent happened at that moment.

Its because it was released in 2 parts.

Rebuild Kaworu's entire point was to act as a guide for Shinji. That, and get played like a fiddle by best dad to get Shinji in the robot. He takes the role of Shinji's only real friend in the Rebuilds. Gendo is Gendo, Misato manipulates him for revenge, Rei is fucking dead, and Asuka is a cunt who punches bullet-proof glass instead of explaining the situation to him.

>Oh hey Shinji just woke up for a decade of sleeping
>let's not tell him what's going on, all while blaming him for something Misato and Gendo ultimately caused

>>158692894
Yeah, but that's the thing. Kaworu's entire character revolves around Shinji in Rebuild.
We don't know anything about him and that's boring.

At least in NGE, even with his one episode, we were still able to learn a bit about Kaworu as an individual. He had his own issues about humanity, music, and SEELE and shit that were all separate from Shinji.
In Rebuild all of that is gone.

I agree he's a lot more tolerable than the other characters in 3.0, though. He's just a chill dude who wants to play piano, that's cool.
