Just finished this

Just finished this.
What next? Where would the story go from here if it had continued?

It does continue though. The rebuilds are sequels.

>What next?

Lifelong depression.

If people didn't come back in time then they'd die. And even if they did come back the world would be thrown into chaos as everyone was just sucked into a giant magic "fuck you" hole where they know the secrets of everyone else.

No one knows. It's for you to decide. (In my opinion Asuka goes crazy and asks Shinji to kill her and Shinji does and goes even more crazy and Shinji eats Lilith when hes hungry and people start coming out of the LCL and try to build new lives but they all hate each other and how would they even grow plants? Idgi)

user I think you have autism.

It really is the perfect ending, nothing more needed to be said or done in the series. I guess if you want to imagine a happy ending you can hope that more people can regenerate and shinji and asuka and the others can repopulate the world. But apparently not many people have the strength of heart to bring themselves back from the sea of life, since asuka and shinji are literally the only ones present in the final scene. Most people have weak hearts after all

That's so werid seeing Shinji and Asuka side by side like that.

rebuilds are not sequels, they are AU's. There is no way in hell that Sohryu would just vanish without a trace and Rei not being Lilith anymore.

Implying shinji didn't become functionally god after instrumentality and the rebuilds are his deluded imaginations.

if you actually want the full you have to know japanese and play all the games/read all the extra shit. The anime was never really finished and was given a rushed botched end. which explains why it is so shitty, but dumb asses like to pretend the anime's lack of story is deep(because they foreshadowed a lot of the stuff that was meant to be included but never got to it)

Not to mention, significant time has passed. I'd venture to say its been a month or more until Shinji wished Asuka back to the living.

>play all the games/read all the extra shit
Is there some translation or a summary at least?

Now I'm confsed, Intrumentality is kind of like the Matrix and everyone is still stuck in a dreamstate (intrumentality).

Its just an extention of episode 25-26. Multiple possibilities of Shinji Ikari.

the new eva blog has many translations

Are the Visual Novels canon? I've heard some people say that Girlfriend of Steel and Angelic Days are not canon, while some say there is.

nope. also don't listen to the dumb asses who don't bother to learn japanese and check that shit out. pretty much everyone that tries to tell you that the symbolism in the show mean anything (other than foreshadowing of what had been planned to be done) hasn't even checked any of it out.

haven't read those. according to this user there may be some translations though. so you should just read and find out.

It’s fucking 2017 and these kind of myths of ‘budget issues’ are still around the fandom. They do lacked cells acording to Tsurumaki (he said they 'plummeted’) as well as schedule problems. That’s why the animation of chapters like the episode 24 had so many stand-stills and even frames from the storyboard never made it. The rest are myths. Having a bit of drop in animation quality has NOTHING to do with changing the ending. Even Tsurumaki himself said not much after that he was content with EoTV and that doing EoE had been 'a bit of unnecessary work’, even if he knew he should be happy ‘having their work made into a movie’.

It’s 2017, god fucking dammit. You could investigate at least a bit, is NOT that hard to find primary sources. The Internet it’s fucking free. Stop reading and believing EvaGeeks-tier fanwank. It’s embarrassing.

They're not canon.

Alright, so why bother playing/reading them?

Asuka wished herself back to living

cause you want more eva and you dont care how you get it

If you want to see Shinji and co in high school AUs with shitty harem settings, you should read them. (Campus Apocalypse is decent though)

I'm not the user you replied to, I'm just saying they're not canon. If you like Eva then don't play/read it.

If he wished her back to the living, why would he choke her as soon as he saw her? She did it herself

>be me
>make shitty unfinished mechs anime
>gullible little shits watch the show
>they think it's super deep because they keep interpreting the foreshadowing as some kind of symbolism
>make shit loads of cash
>some people get suspicious of even shittier quality half way through show
>claim it was all on purpose in an attempt not to lose all the edge lords from giving me all their money

>It really is the perfect ending
"Congratulations" is better, the definitive ending.

...

To confirm that he wasn't in a fucked up instrumentality fever dream.

>What next?
depression, self loathing, fear of social interaction, moe waifus, wanking over "interpretations", asuka porn, arguing with reifags
>Where would the story go from here if it had continued?
Down the toilet

congratulations, shinji, you killed all of mankind!

That's really fucked up of you Shinji

I don't know if its regarded as canon by the master himself, but I heard in some card its stated that "Shinji wished for Asuka despite him always hurting her"

I don't know, nothing makes sense in eva. Its like trying to decipher the meaning the holy trinity in the bible.

He could have just talked to her. I'm pretty sure he stopped choking her because it reminded him of Yui's touch (watch the scene, it's a direct parallel). And Yui did say everyone could come back. Asuka was just second because she's terrified of losing her individuality

That was a card commissioned by ADV, the Western dubbing company.
They also said Asuka has morning sickness.

Nothing they produce or say is canon, ignore them.

Yui says anyone can come back as long as they desire to, it would make no sense for Asuka to be wished back by someone else. In fact it would destroy the message of the entire ending.

>I don't know if its regarded as canon by the master himself, but I heard in some card its stated that "Shinji wished for Asuka despite him always hurting her"
I think that's true, but that doesn't mean that Shinji wished her into existence. She wished herself to be there.

Shine would have wanted to confront Asuka though. Too much was unresolved.

>the master
you mean the dirty jap that keeps tricking weebs to buy the rest of the story that he couldn't finish

Shinji didn't wish her back, asuka had a strong enough heart to bring herself back to life, if you remember Yui in one of her final lines tells shinji something along the lines of "don't worry, everyone can return to their human forms if they have the strength to see themselves in their own heart" so asuka just had the strength of heart to bring herself back

Somehow Eva made me really sad. Last time I had such emotional engagement was Madoka's Rebellion.
On the spot I can't even name other shows that made me feel these levels of angst.

>That was a card commissioned by ADV, the Western dubbing company.
No, it was a Japanese card commissioned by Gainax.

Also, an early draft of the script had a scene with Asuka returning from the sea herself. It seems that she wished herself back.

Reminder that those who prefer EoE to EoTV have shit taste
Not saying that either is better, but EoE is simply unnecessary

That's what it says on the official Evangelion™ Trading Card Game™(buy it now)

>Aida says "Congrats" instead of "Congratulations"
What a fag

>No, it was a Japanese card commissioned by Gainax.
Nope, it was commissioned by ADV from a Japanese third-party. There was no involvement with Gainax.

>Also, an early draft of the script had a scene
Yes, it had her kicking down her grave marker.
So obviously Shinji wasn't the one to wish her back, it was Asuka.

that's exactly what I mean when I say that the faggot that made eva locks the story behind 『Extra Content』. why is it being praised by the circle jerks that make up the eva fan base when in any other fandom making you pay for more story is condemned?

Didn't Rei bring her there though? She teleported there.

Speaking of which, I wonder what Asuka and Rei talked about in instrumentality and why she decided to leave after Shinji. She could have any anything she wanted.

He may have wanted her to come, but I really doubt it was him who actually "brought" her back. She came herself

I think at that point he wanted literally anyone to come. He was by himself for who knows how long.

This isn't official

>Neon Genesis Evangelion: The Card Game (新世紀エヴァンゲリオン カードゲーム) is a collectible card game that was first released by Bandai in 1998

Bandai took images by Gainax illustrators and added their own blurbs/text.
They didn't have any input from Gainax themselves outside of the images.

Weren't Bandai the ones that made Mana Kirishima? Yeah, they're shit

When I rewatched it last time I put off watching EoE for a week. I simply didn't want to feel it regardless of how well it's made.

Yes, all the Eva products they've made are extremely out of character and retarded.
Not to be taken seriously or as canon.

EOE is regarded as the "bad" end in many spinoffs, so I don't know why people are so optimistic about it. It reeks of despair and sadness

>Spinoffs
Trash

>Asuka says a variation of "I feel sick" to imply she's disgusted with Shinji
Why didn't she just give it a break?

What does Sup Forums think about the manga?

Because she knows Shinji was wanking it to her

wrong, it's the best end

Sadamoto's fanfiction

Rei and Kaji are better in the manga. Everyone else is worse

she is a whore who will do anything for attention. almost as bad as shinji in some way and in other ways worse than him
TL;DR she is a slut and wants some D

So they hate each other but want to fuck each others brains out, 2deep4me

shinji is a boy slut who wanted to fuck her so bad that he killed every one so that she had no choice to fuck him for repopulation

That's a very interesting way of putting EOE...

>Three different people sacrifice their lives for him
>"If no one cares about me, they can all just die!!!!"
Shinji is such a fuck.

thats what I said herealthough his actions in the rebuild seem more justified to me, but that might just be because the rebuild has a more coherent story.

He decided to just destroy the world just because Asuka rejected him, I guess he really is an idiot.

reminder to never give shinji nuclear codes.

Rebuild are objectively better, no matter what some autists say.

Not gonna lie, former Shinji lover here. This is fucking hilarious watching Shinji crash and burn. But in all seriousness we can't let this kid get the nuclear codes.

>asuka is about to be killed
>shinji crawls in corner aking for her to save him
>she asks for his help
>he refuses
>she begins to realize that he was a piece of shit
>he asks her for help
>he tells her that he only trusts her
>she rejects him
>shinji makes wish to omnipotent being for everyone except for the two of them to die
>they are the only people left
>she is injured and doesn't have the energy to stop him
now she can't refuse shinji
>now they can "repopulate the planet"

I miss the /tg/ threads on Sup Forums

Rebuild Shinji is an angel. NGE Shinji is disgusting.

...

yeah. in the rebuild it shows how no one told him anything, they all told him to make his own decisions (while forcing him to do what they wanted),and when they did tell him something it was a lie. which led him to try and find the truth himself only then to be manipulated into causing the 3rd impact.
meanwhile tv shinji was just an edge lord who hated his dad

They are sequels or at least intermediates.
More likely its one of the alternate realities he experiences during instrumentality to see if he could have tried and changed anything before he ultimately realizes that real life he has to deal with it and its consequences.

if the rebuilds are sequels, then why aren't they shit like NGE and it's other sequel EoE?

Because Anno made up his mind in 20 years.

>made up his mind
you mean he completed the shitty incomplete and rushed dribble that is NGE's script?

pretty much

...

While EVA does that, the card game isn't such an instance. The card game is bullshit.

The original story + EoE forms one complete telling. NGE also does that arguably, but EoE is like an extended ending which doesn't contradict the original.

The problem are mouthbreathing autists like the asukafaggots over at evageeks who keep trying to piece everything together, using bits for it as ammunition for a pointless waifu war.

They all die, because even if people come back from the LCL, there is no infrastructure/resources left to survive.

>congratulations!
>how disgusting
>they're the same thing!

Um ok faggot

Reminder that Shinji is canonically heterosexual

What the fuck are you talking about

This is only a proof of Shinji's homosexuality. He only blushes when girl shove their boobs in his face, but a boy just looking at him makes him behave like a faggot

You shouldn't be using Asuka as an example.

Asuka is a transvestite that looks like a man.

True, I don't think he ever blushed as Asuka or another girl unless they were doing something sexual to him.

REI BEST GIRL

He blushed because he was nice to him

He blushes because that's an awkward situation when Asuka tries to seduce him many times and forcibly kiss even.

On the other hand, he has the same reaction when a certain boy only smiles at him.

This shit again. He blushed even before he was nice to him. Because he felt sexual attraction.

Manga? It ended years ago, finally.

Stop responding to this troll, he spams this shit every thread.

Ignore and report.

Is he doing anything that violates the board rules though. You wanna get suspended?

He's gotten banned before for posting this stuff so the mods clearly disagree with you.

No, please stop fanwanking disgusting things, his love for him was pure

But he made him orgasm in EOE

see

Nope
