>>
>>287316417
>the official WINNER
She "won" back in NGE with the episode 26 alternate reality and in EoE by virtue of being with Shinji and showing him affection at the very end. I don't see how people think the Rebuilds mean anything, or how the 30th anniversary animation is any more official or canon than EoE's ending. Is it just because the latter presents the possibility of Asuka and Shinji's future and does so in a digestible package?
>>287316610
Mari is fan service without substance and a proxy for Anno's wife whom he allowed to ruin him thus ruining his creative projects.

It's because of years fans of painting Shinji and Asuka's dynamic as "toxic" or somehow inherently doomed
>>
>>287316417
I got told this was supposed to be some kind of delusional what-if that Asuka rejects at the end, thus making it non-canon. Or that's what I was told anyways, I didn't watch it.
>>
>>287323106
its her answer to instrumentality, rejecting her dream life with shinji and choosing to return to the real world (destroyed post eoe) to try and build it for real, its the classic eva "reject escapism" message
>>
>>287323106
>Or that's what I was told anyways, I didn't watch it.
why even bother
>>
>>287321651
It just made it harder for people to cope about it with bad faith interpretations, ie EoE bad ending and its ilk. because it shows those possibilities on screen instead of relying on the viewer to engage with the film and intuit things. Also modern fandom is all downstream of HOAD style gloating.
>>
>>287323200
But if she rejects her dream life with Shinji that means she doesn't actually want to have that with Shinji right? Rejecting that means grow up and stop dreaming about being married and happy and a mother, you need to work and find your own future (alone) without him.
>>
>>287316847
>literally ooc headcanon
>dismissed and dropped
>>
>>287323289
no she states she wants to build it for real, she is basically rejecting the matrix in place of reality, just because she rejects staying stuck in a permanent dream doesnt mean she doesnt want to have that dream in real life
>>
>>287323106
she rejects 'a world without eva' which is symbolically a world without the hardship that made their lives and their attempts at connection so fraught. visually it's echoing both times shinji was attempting to quit and leave tokyo 3. it's an affirmation of identity.
It's like 10 minutes, just watch it if you care enough to discuss it.

Mari is hot because she wears glasses. Outside of that she feels like a fanfic character. But maybe that's because the original Eva characters were so well written to begin with that any addition to the cast feels superfluous

It's only "toxic" because they, like the rest of the cast, struggle with expressing their emotions and can't communicate their intentions due to their coping mechanisms. They are actually very beneficial for each other, it's just that they can't get past the initial hurdle of being honest. People just can't infer things anymore.
>>287323250
>because it shows those possibilities on screen instead of relying on the viewer to engage with the film and intuit things
This is my biggest issue with modern audiences and media. Everyone wants every minute detail explained to them, and most shows/movies keep things too simple to misunderstand. There's no confidence in the use of subtext or that the viewer can interpret it, and it makes for a worse entertainment and storytelling landscape.

Shinji and Asuka are toxic and inherently doomed. Asuka rejects the real Shinji right off the bat in the short and proceed to dream fantasies about an ooc version that only exists in her mind (which makes her lose her shit when the real thing does not conform to the ooc version). The entire fantasy is actually twisting reality into creating the family she never had (the kid is actually a Asuka herself). Asuka eventually drops the entire thing and stops seeking such nonsense. After that, she does NOT go back to address the real Shinji or accept him, instead she returns to Eva-02 to resume her role.
>>
>>287333383
She said she was meant to protect people, and after doing that she would find her happiness. Invariably, Unit02 is gone in the end. Her happiness comes after (EOE).
>>
>>287333383
>>287323081
Looks like you triggered the schizo
See he has now moved on from calling the short Shinji "Rebuild Shinji" and now calls him "Real Shinji"

It's now saying retarded shit again like "OOC" which is something he spams alot. But the best part is "the twisting reality" shit.

But the best part is you can 100% tell this is the Kensuke pedo by his use of capitalizing words which you can see by his /ghost/ post he made on tvis exact thread >>287330734

Not really, the last segment wasn't a scenario she was presented by the alter Shinji, but rather her own imagination, and she doesn't reject the images she saw but the free ride to a world without struggle

She rejects the loss of identity, to accept this fantasy is to become another character entirely, Asuka chose to be the character she was written to be, not a fanfiction/headcanon version that would negate what she actually is.

>>
>>287336454
The entire short is about Asuka trying to cope with the ending she got in EoE by twisting the narrative and changing her role, it's only when she starts to have fantasies inside a dream that she finally realizes what is wrong: by changing the narrative, she changes her core character, and thus lose her identity as herself.

>>287337512
Asuka rejects the real Shinji early on in the short and never goes back to him.

>the TV ending explicitly says that without an "other" to anchor yourself to, there is no identifiable "self"
That's why Asuka shows up at the end of EoE and Mari is there at the end of RoE. In EoE, Asuka as the witness and victim of Shinji's disgusting actions prevents him from running away from what he is, in Roe, Mari as the witness of Shinji's growth and positive actions validates his existence in the new world.

>>287335795
>If the short was about the two Asuka having a identity crisis
The short is about escapism, Asuka (Soryu, Shikinami already figured things out) tries to get rid of the ending of EoE by rewriting the narrative. At the end Asuka realizes that rewriting the narrative means turning into another character and abandoning what she is, so instead of trying to run away, she just accepts the role she was given as it'll allow her to preserver her identity.

Yeah but again, she also specifically states that after she’s protected everyone she’ll find her happiness, she’s sure of it. At the end of every version of the story there comes a time when Unit02 is gone and there are no more angels to fight. At that point she’ll be able to pursue her happy ending. In the context of EOE, shinji and her are still there. She’s still able to go forward from that point.
This also all flies in the face of the manga, where we see that without Eva she’s a totally normal girl and it’s fine. She’s perfectly happy there. Maybe it’s Anno’s hang up that he can’t imagine an Asuka who isn’t fighting a squid thing and losing.

Ritsuko got shot.
Hikari fell for Toji and then got vanquished in the dazzling sea later.

The only person alive was Rei but she fell for mc and willingly let him go after he rejected her, thanks to his mother's shit-talk.

The only reason why Asuka is seen in the end of EoE is because its spineless author couldn't figure out anything better than driving the show towards le deep and memetic "I survived because I have a will" ending instead of depict a real end where everything ends with Instrumentality project been complete (which would mean that everything past Shinji seen everyone else and conversation between him and his mother is on giant plothole and fanfic)

Do I need to say that Mari is ripoff of author's own wife thus cubed fanfic character?
