No really, it's not supposed to make sense.

Anno says he was retroactively inspired by Madoka.

We have this thread every day.jpg

We should just make a board called "I just finished Evangelion" or something where every single thread is by someone who just finished watching Evangelion.

Also, watch End of Eva if you haven't, OP.

Now watch The End of Evangelion if you haven't done so.

Omedetou!

>>61911116
Omedetou!

Animation budget ran out.

I sure can't get through the day without my daily Eva thread

(I'm not even joking)

Everybody died.
Ep. 25 and 26 Anno hijacked to project his personal psychoanalyses onto Shinji.

>>61911091
>>61911098
already DL'ed End of evangelion, but should I first watch Death and Rebirth (since it was made first and all..)?

>>61911136
Omedetou!

>>61911136
おめでとう!

Author just made stuff up as the series went, there's no real deep explanation. Fanboys will disagree thought

>>61911185
No, you really don't need to at all

>>61911098
>>61911091
These.
It's basically just a shortened version of End of Eva that focuses entirely on the mental mindfuck aspect. EoE shows what's physically going on during episodes 25/26.

>>61911185

No. Death and Rebirth is just a recap. Skip it. Move onto End of Eva.

>>61911185
DnB is a recap, but worth watching for perspective. EoE is a less abstract conclusion to the series.

>>61911185
I liked Death because of all the classical pieces. You don't have to watch it, but it's a good recap.

Once you've finished with End of Eva, watch Rebuild 1.11 and 2.22

>>61910993
It's Shinji resolving his internal struggle.
Basically, NGE has a lot to do with growing up, taking responsibility, and understanding oneself.
Shinji settled his problems. I kind of thought that it might take place after orange juice in End of Evangelion.
I'd say you should watch that movie.
The first time I watched it, I had no idea what the fuck was going on.
I watched it again recently, and it makes a lot more sense now.
Eva is the kind of show that doesn't explain every facet of itself in one viewing.

Obligatory.

Oh god... Can't people understand this? It's pretty clear that it's a deep "investigation" of Shinji's mind and why he was the way he was. And, at the end, when he realizes that, he also realizes how wrong and pointless he is when being omega like that.

>>61911376
I actually thought that the breathing was that typical anime exhalation deal. I thought the white crap was fluid being hooked up to Asuka whose cord shinji broke.
While it made sense to me....how the fuck did he write that?

>>61910993
It's the aftermath of the Human instrumentality project.
The AT field which surrounds each individual's soul has been broken, leading to everyone's soul being mixed up together in a primordial soup. All of humanity's souls are combined into one.

It's said that you are a complete person only if you take into account the you that is in the minds of others. The instrumentality project eliminates this need for others in order to be a complete whole by combining everyone's soul together.
At least that's what I understand.

ok, I'll go watch End of evangelion and hopefully that makes more sense
btw what's Rebuild about?

>>61911597
Stop trying to fit in

rebuild is the remake of evengelion, there's some plenty change like better graphic and some plots, it's betteryou finished the original one first

EVERY
FUCKING
DAY

Except change 6th to one millionth

Seriously, someone needs to make an Evangelion copypasta for these threads.

man, I don't know if I should participate in the daily eva thread r just go back to watching the Nise toothbrooshing stream/thread...

>>61911965

Its not going to make sense, but don't post another thread on /a/ about it until you have watched rewatched the series, and EoE again + you did your own research.

>>61911965

Rebuild is EVA, but without all the shitty "monster of the week", filler and crappy animation. It's awesome, watch it right after EoE.

watching the movie now. I didn't quite get it..why are they being attacked?

>>61912134
More accurate

>>61912686
In End of Evangelion?

IIRC, Seele tricked the JSDF into thinking NERV were the ones about to initiate instrumentality.

>>61912087
>remake

What's there to explain? Shinji finally learned that he could become happy without Eva.

also.

>Rebuild
>Remake

It's pretty obvious it's a sequel by now, even though Anno denied it.

Here you go OP

Fan fic fag from last night, or the night before that, started reading Genocide, took me about 3 hours to get to chapter four, there's still 11 chapters to go, I'm fucking loving it, it still manages to keep an intense atmosphere.

4chan opened Oct 1, 2003. Assuming an average of 3-5 threads a day since that date. There have been approximately 9201 to 15335 eva threads.

Congratulations!

that sounds more like an eating disorder rather than depression

You realise number of threads is meaningless? Visit page 10 or 12 sometime, or even 3. There are hundreds of threads a day dying without getting a single reply.

He sounds like your typical 16 year old teenage girl living vegetarian to appear edgy and different.

It goes something like this, OP.

Human instrumentality happened, OP.

>>61911185
>but should I first watch Death and Rebirth (since it was made first and all..)?
To get the most out of your viewing experience, I recommend watching the first half of Death and Rebirth, and skipping the second.

The first part, "Death", is a recap which will put some focus on particular parts of interest, priming you for EoE along with 25&26.

It's also one of the, if not the, most tasteful and well done recaps I've seen.

>>61913276
It's pretty rare that an EVA-thread doesn't get at least a dozen replies.

Does my school uniform make me look fat, anon?

Silly Ramiel, everyone knows you're the best Eva girl. You look perfect.

Are you a faggot?

Asuka is better, Anno agrees don't bother him with it.

Just watch Madoka, OP. It's the same story, but without the convoluted nonsense.

>>61913888
because he was a teenage boy and there were exposed breasts in front of him. Wouldn't you? I would

>>61913650
I've got to agree, I mean, Ritsuko IS smoking hot after all.

However, is Misato really shit? She's a wonderful girl, is she not?

Misato is as generic a character as it gets

>>61910993

Watch EoE, because EoE shows you what physically happens around the Instrumentality in episodes 25 & 26 as someone already said.

The way I understand the last two episodes and EoE is basically that the Instrumentality begins and rolls on. In the original TV series Shinji accepts the Instrumentality and we see the instrumentalization of his soul and mind rather closely. The Instrumentality goes on and splashes everyone into orange juice (which we do not see) and changes the world into one where there are no barriers between the souls of humans. The last two episodes happen entirely inside Shinji's mind as does the ending with the congratulations. Why did it have to be so fucking weird and even stupid? It costs $400,000 to write good scripts for 12 seconds. The makers did not have the $400,000 nor did they have 12 seconds to use them. They had to push out whatever they could double time.

In EoE, however, Shinji rejects the Instrumentality and is returned to the scarred world he lived in all the time. This is how I see it.

>>61913650
>still confusing > and <

>>61913954
It's full of mistakes.

I oughta put together something myself some day, and rewrite like half of the evageeks wiki.

We should have an evageeks general and rewrite their shit.

>>61914048
>No, she's used goods.
I'd rather call it "calibrated goods".

But I'm a Reifag anyway, so this is a battle for the Misatofags.

Madoka vs. Shinji: Both are crybabies, but Madoka get's her shit together at the end. 1:0

Sayaka vs. Asuka: Sayaka crumbles more under the pressure than Asuka, that is certainly true. But that makes Sayaka a good character. Asuka, on the other hand, is more or less a slut. (Being half German is a bonus point, though.) 0.5:0.5

Homura vs. Rei: This isn't even a contest. Autowin for the best friend someone can hope for. 1:0

Kyouko vs. Eva 01: Also not a contest. Win for the best character of Madoka, even though Eva 01's berserk rage is pretty cool.

Mami vs. the Gendo: Mami is a character I can't relate to, while Gendo is a genius motherfucker. I give this to Gendo. 0:1

In total: 2.5:1.5 for Madoka Magica.

>>61913888
He's a weak bastard who doesn't have enough self-confidence to get in a relationship or even flirt with girls. He has his needs but he's too much of a crybaby to actually try to satisfy himself in normal conditions. I guess that part would be an overload of physical desire in circumstances that make short-time satisfaction possible.

If he was a normal person, he'd have covered Asuka up. If he wasn't so afraid of actually getting near others, I wouldn't have been surprised if he'd fucked Asuka for real.

The guy is totally sick, he's so depressed and afraid of himself and others that his actions sometimes seem pretty weird to us "normal" people. I think that's what makes him such an interesting character in my eyes.

>>61914323
>Comparing Kyouko to motherfucking Unit 01
>Comparing Gendo to Mami

What the shit am I reading?

>>61914320
>I'd rather call it "calibrated goods".

Yeah. Calibrated for Kaji's dick.

>>61914323
Shit, forgot the 1:0 for Kyoko.
That means 3.5:1.5 for Madoka Magica.
Don't hate on me, this is a pretty accurate comparison im my opinion.

>>61914323
>Comparing Madoshit to EVA
Stop, you obviously have shit taste anyways.

>>61914323
>comparing Mami to Gendo

What the hell?

>>61914323
>Kyouko vs. Eva 01
What the hell are you even doing

>>61914453
I don't even like Madoka Magica that much. I just posted this because some guy wrote that Anno was inspired by Madoka (I know that was a joke/troll). I'm sorry, if I hurt your feelings.

>>61914452
7/10. I'm gritting my teeth.

Fuck this shit, it's Angel Time!

>>61914568

Why is Leliel so fucking moe.

Fuck that slut Ramiel.

>>61914323
wasn't that bitch a robot and not a mentally scarred teenage boy?
Asuka isn't a OMFGSLUTWHORETRICK
you guys are just prudes.
Unit 01 became god your argument is invalid

Madoka is just inferior. Deal with it

>>61914267
It's funny because it's 100% correct.

>>61914323
Nigga what the fuck did you even watch Eva?

Of all the characters it had you had to use Unit 01 in a character comparison?

OH come on, he's obviously not serious.

It's obviously in jest, and I had to smile while reading it.

Madoka a shit though.

>>61914568
Ah, thanks for the cue. I liked Madoka's witches more than Eva's angels. There is one exception: The angel that is a shadow and has a shadow that looks like an angel is one of the most creative things I ever saw. But in total:

1:0 for Madoka's witches.

>>61914667
Watch the Remakes and eat your words

>>61914267
Do people actually get angry when someone says Rebuild is a sequel?

>>61914323
Jesus Christ, at least compare QB to Gendo.
>Kyouko vs. Eva 01
Now I've lost it.

>>61914707
it is a sequel, what's there to get angry about?

>>61914707
There's always that one person who dismisses everything and says Anno is making shit up as he goes.

oh look it's this thread again

gtfo. if you don't understand it, watch it again and figure it out yourself.

>>61914606
>Unit 01 became god
I don't know if I would call it god, but you have a point. Let's say 0.5:0.5 then
(Madoka still wins 3:2)

>>61914691
I guess some sort of shit storm is now going to occur.

>>61914707
It's more about arguing whether Rebuilds are sequels (so precisely take place AFTER EoE) or just altered original story.

Is it sad that I can relate with Shinji? Like, a lot?

>>61914667
Hm, can't say I found the witches of Madoka to be all that interesting.

In the end, they all come down to a particular design, with no real depth or defining characteristics. So I for one was left entirely unimpressed, but it's not the witches fault alone, the show did a poor job building the foundations under the witches.

They did have some cool animated sequences though, like the spinning wheels. Reminded me of the skeleton-wheels under the catacombs and painted world of ariamis.

>>61914640
Why not? You could argue that Eva 01 is not a real character as in "human" but I'd not be so narrow-minded.

>>61914754
It's a half sequel half remake half different continuity production.

>>61914717
Gendo can't be QB.

QB in EVA has to be the beings/aliens that put Lilith and Adam on Earth.

>>61914836
Almost every male with poor family relationships will relate to Shinji.

here we go

>>61914836
Not really. On average I'd say most find one or two points they can relate to, his whole hedgehogs dilemma is for instance something that is true for nearly everyone, although at varying degrees.

>>61914842
Well, I give you the lack of depth. But in context of the concept of the show it would be pretty hard to deliver more depth without giving too many clues regarding the true nature of witches.
>>61914691
I will watch rebuild at some point, had not the opportunity to do so until now.

I'm an omega faggot who is socially crippled and often skip tutorials at uni because I'm afraid that I'd be force to participate in class discussions.

I can relate with Shinji. When I watched episode 19 with the 'I mustn't run away' thing, it gave me the courage to go to a tutorial.

>>61915008
Nice analogy, Agent 008.

>>61915008
>it gave me the courage to go to a tutorial.
