Okay anons. If the ending of the evangelion rebuild series was so bad. You come up with a better ending than the one we got! If you really consider yourself so much of a better writer than the master Anno.
>>
delete the rebuilds
delete EoE
there, perfect ending
>>
>>290095772
The ending of the original series sucked and was deliberately confusing, and the rebuilds ending just sucked.
At least EOE, despite being a nihilist downer of an ending felt complete and cathartic. Like the ending of a tragedy.
>>
>>290095755
You'd have to retcon all of 3.33 onwards, and go with something like the original plans before the 2011 Earthquake happened and made Anno throw out the original script.

Everyone dying, humanity going extinct, with only a vague hint of a hint that they may come back from the LCL soup was part of the original plan?

No more self-insert meta faggotry for starters and Shinji stays in his world instead of running away like he didn't learn a damn thing from Gendo.
>>
>>290095755
Delete Mari from these movies and give all her screentime to Misato and Asuka
Add another movie between 2.22 and 3.33
Focus additional time on building Shinji's relationships with both Misato and Asuka
Remove all metafictional nonsense
>>
>>290096858
>Delete Mari from these movies and give all her screentime to Misato and Asuka
Agreed.
>>
>>290096858
Personally I'd just delete 3.33 from canon and have the story continue from where the 'next time preview' in 2.22 said the story would continue. But that ended up never happening. Fuck you Anno. Somebody never took a proper storytelling class about what setup and payoff means.
>>
>>290095755
We got a better ending the Asuka short.
Kensuke schizo atill seethes about it
>>
>>290097065
>We got a better ending the Asuka short.
Asuka didn't end up actually being with Shinji in that short though.
And after the time skip in 3.33 they were never going to end up together in the rebuild saga.

Case in point of him seething and also repeating this exact line. This not the first time and it won't be because the faggot is extremely obsessed with hating on Asuka

Well it's true isn't it? Asuka grew up while Shinji was frozen in Unit 01. He's still a teenager, she's a (mentally) respectable older woman who's grown up and had a life (albeit a shitty one) while he's still an inexperienced child.
>>

That you keep repeating the same posts and I knew you were gonna reply with a shitpost.

Didn't ask because if I cared what you had to say I would just reread the other 50 times you seethe about Asuka and Shinji fucking

Don't reply to me Kensuke cuck

Do, you have note with all your shitposts saved.

ignoring t(You-know-who). The Anno said the Asuka short was the 4th ending to Eva and hat shows he can write a much better ending

In a way evangelion was always like that, since it started as a niche story aimed at japanese Otaku of the 90s. That aspect just became way more transparent and blunt as it went on.
>>
>>290097806
He wasn't literally frozen but his age was. It's called a time skip for a reason, and for Shinji it was literally fourteen years passing by like he woke up from a nap.
>>

You typed that more then once, "after the timeskip" and "never gonna happen".

The fact you literally looked up what happen so you reply says a lot that you don't know shit. stop replying to me you lost

The rebuilds were a mistake from the very start. Nothing but a naked cashgrab
>>
>>290096677
can't be done, the mistakes that resulting in rebuild sucking were baked into the format and execution from the very first film.
>>
>>290099221
They weren't originally. But whatever plans Anno originally had got thrown out the window, and after 3.33 completely broke the setting, characters, and Shinji's sanity. There was no logical or satisfying way to end it that wasn't either a complete downer, or complete meta commentary nonsense.
I think after the stressful experience he had writing and directing 3.33 (which accoring to his wife was so bad he had to take an extended leave from filmmaking) he just stopped caring about how it ended and just wanted it to end. Which is why he ignored everyone else at Khara's input on the final movies plot.
>>
It's impressive how i never give a shit which character dates which. Man i'm like a god.
>>
>>290099636
Even if Shinji did find some poor girl who'd let him sleep with her and have his kids. It wouldn't solve any of his problems. At best it would just kick his problems down the road and have him form a parasocial attachment that would turn him into another Gendo.

It would have made more sense for Shinji to end up with Sakura. Unlike Mari, she was set up in the first movie with Touji angry at Shinji for injuring her with his carelessness. Unlike Asuka or Misato, she doesn't have decades of baggage or hatred of him, or an awkward borderline pedophilic age gap because of that fucking time skip that ruined everything.

Him remaking reality is the whole reason the ending of the rebuilds sucks. He shouldn't have been able to. From both a thematic and a internal consistency point of view. It should have ended with him accepting that he couldn't fix everything, and learning to live with it.
3.33 hammered home that there was no magic reset button that could fix Shinji's problems, that he was screwed, that he was going to have to live with his mistakes and find a way to make up for them that didn't involve piloting the eva.
And then the very next movie completely invalidated all the themes and setup in the previous one by giving Shinji that very reset button the last movie destroyed. In a way that pulled it out in an illogical way that made no sense based on what had been setup in the first three films.
>>
>>290103840
Sure. But since it was made and it was shit i would like to see happy young shinji and not what we got.
The director was feeling superior because he got himself some used goods whore and accepted that his famous life is ok but for the average otaku loser seeing that is a slap in the face so let's end the shitshow completely ignoring messages and pleasing the crowd.
These movies are only eye candy anyways.
>>
>>290103932
Be constructive. What's the kind of ending you would have preferred for the rebuilds?

NO! Don’t do rebuild!
>>
>>290104376
I'm just asking. If you could rewrite things so the rebuilds were good. How would you have fixed the stories mistakes?
>>
>>290104128
There could be no better end to the rebuilds. It it what it is, take the lecture about being a wageslave and marrying a used up woman and be happy or don't.

3.33 wouldn't have been so bad if the last movie had at least done it's due dilligence. The worst part of Thrice Upon A Time was that it felt like it was excusing or at least letting Shinji off too easy for his actions in the previous movie, rather than holding him accountable.
Given how 3.33 built up how utterly irredeemably guilty he was. I was expecting major mistreatment from the survivors when he got back to civilization.
Instead. Touji and Kensuke are glad to see him again. None of the other survivors treat him any differently. The only one who doesn't let him off the hook is Asuka, and even then she doesn't go nearly as far as she'd be within her rights to.

I was expecting Wille to propose mutinying Misato for refusing to kill him with the DSS. I was expecting an angry mob of survivors to form a lynch mob that Asuka would have to talk down. I was expecting a survivor who lost her parents to beat him to death.

But none of that happened. It felt like it was disrespecting both the people who died because of him, and the audiences intelligence.

Don't make the rebuilds and make a sequel with new characters set after EoE instead.

Just keep 2.22 and keep going. Focus more on Rei and Shinji. Give Mari a character. Fire Tsurumaki.
Given the momentum they built up it should be impossible to fuck up if they just went with what they had, yet Anno still managed to shit the bed.
>>
>>290104996
3.33 was inexcusable Asukafaggotry borne from the fear of Rei and Shinji together post 2.22. With Asuka fans for writers, everything had to be flipped upside down and twisted inside out to accomodate a full 180.

That's why the characters in 2.22 act unrealistically and everything is handwaved away. 3.0+1.0 has absolute shit to work with as a result, and when they have to tie things together they must acknowledge that 3.33 was fully retarded.
>>
>>290104664
Besides from having overall decent quality, Rebuild did two things right, and that was starting with the original crew and setting, and then introducing divergences in 2.0. That ensured the story would be interesting for new fans and old fans alike.

3.33 is where it really shits the bed storywise, and Thrice Upon A Time has no real "out" besides making everything a dream or finding another copout. Which is what it did.

The third rebuild tries way too hard to reframe the ending of 2.0 as a bad thing, and as Thrice Upon A Time has to eventually admit, that doesn't hold up to scrutiny.

Redo the Rebuilds from 3.0 onwards. Fixed.

3.33 had many issues. Wanking Asuka was not one of them.

Asuka get wanked in every Eva media. She's the plot of Shin Getter 1 over Shinji

She also wanks Shin off

Anno got the funding and support to make a movie, so he turned the last 2 eps into filler episodes. They do not make sense on their own, as the series hypes up Human Instrumentality Project, then the two episodes have it occur off screen and we see the consequences of it.
