| how about become a mother and lover at the same time ? Also f**k off Asuka. |
 |
so Shinji X Mari represent Anno and this wife? i hear that the first time, interesting... have you a link to the source for me? |
| I gotta admit that was spot on description of NGE romantic subplot. And a very classy way to make a joke of waifu wars. I'll forget the movie in a couple of days, but that one line will probably make me chuckle for years to come. |
| The point about the mother not a lover is Anno telling us the reason why Asuka and Shinji would not end together. Both of those scarred individuals need nurturing relationships, not a battle of wills and passion. Mari was indeed a weird choice, but for a man as intense and obsessed with detail as Anno, not a random one. I disagree with those who claim that he just wanted to tell otaku to f**k off with the shipping. He very much projected what his wife Moyoco is to him onto her. A positive, uplifting influence that took care of him when he was at his lowest and chose to stick to him no matter what. |
| she is not a 50 year old milf in the end, in the manga and the rebuilds she is a lebian in love with yui. Mari is a random hot teen girl in the last scene on 3.0 + 1.0 |

All of 2.22 was about her trying to take care of Shinji and make him happy, and this aspect of her is why she was such a driving force in Shinji's character arc throughout the franchise. Dude, Rei is the clone of his mother. Anything with him ending up with her is immensely creepy. |

opheliaaaaa said: Shinji ending up with a romantic partner was just totally unnecessary in general, not every anime does the character need to end up with someone, especially evangelion, and especially not with Mari whom he had next to 0 chemistry with throughout the entire series (aside from her like shoving her tits in his face, fan service crap ??). that ending was dogshit imo Shinji ending with someone makes perfect sense, as his father tells in the movie before meeting Shinji's mother he only wanted to be alone, this relationship helped him grew a lot as a person/human and we can see this reflected to Shinji as well in the end. Unfortunately I was expecting a Shinji x Asuka, as I never cared too much for Mari character (as this is partially because they didn't add her much development time in these movies, at least in this last one she got a little bit more developed). |

Her soul is her own, it isn't a copy of Yui's. Evangelion has established that repeatedly. But her body is. And that's enough for 99,9% of people. |

MugenNoShirayuki said: No it isn't. She was created in a new body in this new world, one that by definition cannot be a clone of Yui by the rules of reality that Shinji created.

You ship didn't sail and you're frustrated. Try to appreciate what Anno-san was trying to do here instead of being so frustrated about it. Rei got a wonderful sendoff: The scenes with her in the village learning to live life on her own terms without the Ikari-boys was some of the most wonderful and rewarding scenes in all of Evangelion since 1995. And in the new world she gets to have a fresh start as a complete human being. |

And I don't give credit for what creators "try" to do. I assess what they create from the lens of a sensical narrative, and on that metric this movie completely fails. That's of course your opinion and you're by all means entitled to it. Interesting discussion. |

| He should have ended with Kaworu he is the biggest person that he loved |
| As much as I adore Shinji and Asuka as separate characters, I'm glad they didn't end up together. They admitted that they liked each other in the end, which was indeed sweet, but I just don't see them being a very good fit. Imo, she needs someone who's stronger and mature and can put her in her place since she tends to be quite arrogant in her behavior, and he needs someone who's a bit softer and understanding. If he ends up with Mari, good for him, as long as he's happy! I don't really ship anyone in Evangelion, even though I do like Shinji x Kaworu together and would've been fine with them being endgame, I don't mind Mari as a potential partner at all. As long as it's not Asuka. Tbh seeing her with Kensuke at first was kind of weird, but they grew on me! That ending was amazing ♡ Anno is definitely in peace with the series (and himself) and it showed. |
