Don't understand, don't understand, dedicated to those who don't understand

Does EVA look good? What does EVA see? Has the EVA been blown high? How should EVA look? This is the doubt of many viewers who can't understand EVA. They think it's okay, and they smile at the overwhelming discussions and explanations. What doesn't look good is the incomprehension of the EVA fanatics and the fact that EVA is mysterious and even disgusting.

For so many years, the "heart wall" between the fans of EVA and the audience who can't understand EVA has always existed. After 10 years, 20 years, it is still the same. Those who like EVA still blow EVA, and those who don't like EVA still don't like EVA. You are arrogant and I overestimate each other.

Is it very similar?

Are we very similar to them in EVA?

Perhaps, EVA is really called a masterpiece, not because of the overwhelming praise, nor because of the polarized discussion for so long, because it uses itself to reflect ourselves.

Maybe one day, you will quarrel with others because of something you don't understand. Maybe you will quarrel with your friends, family, classmates, colleagues because of which movie is not good, or because of something that does not suit your heart. Get up, but it's just the little things.

That's right, this is the "Wall of the Heart" shared by all human beings, not only in the world of EVA, but the real "Wall of the Heart" that also exists in the real world.

When will the EVA polarisation discussion end? I don't know, maybe it will never end, because there is no Lilith, no Black Moon, no Apostle, and no EVA in this world, and no one will help you remove the "Wall of Heart". When there is no "Wall of the Heart", maybe it is really only on a blood-red beach.

This is EVA, this is what EVA wants to express, it's just something you and I have, and everyone has something.

    Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better. Remember to let her into your heart. Then you can start to make it better.

    I revisited "EVA New Theater Edition: Q" last night. The ruins of the NERV headquarters in the film remind me of various scenes of EOE. So, tonight I revisited EOE (VHS with English subtitles on archive.оrg, great texture). Recalling that the first time I watched EOE was the winter vacation of the second grade of junior high school in 2004. My brother borrowed the Cantonese dubbed version of the VCD from nowhere. I thought that the first opportunity was going to be a big fight in the final episode, but I received a lot of psychological inquiries. After reading it, my heart was very closed. Until the winter vacation of the third year of high school, the end of the first semester of freshman year, the graduation of 2012, the summer of 2017, etc., I revisited it again and again, and penetrated it in VCD, DVD, Blu-ray and video tape... I will really watch it every year from now on. Different versions are better. (I haven't seen the LD version yet) [20170513 mark] I finally experienced a 1080P viewing, still FOREVER.

Neon Genesis Evangelion: The End of Evangelion quotes

  • Shinji Ikari: No-one understands me.

    Rei Ayanami: You never understood anything.

    Shinji Ikari: I thought this was supposed to be a world without pain and without uncertainty.

    Rei Ayanami: That's because you thought that everyone else felt the same as you do.

    Shinji Ikari: You betrayed me! You betrayed my feelings!

    Rei Ayanami: You misunderstood from the very beginning. You just believed what you wanted to believe.

    Shinji Ikari: Nobody wants me, so they can all just die.

    Rei Ayanami: Then what is your hand for?

    Shinji Ikari: Nobody cares whether I live or die. Nothing will change... so they can all just die...

    Rei Ayanami: Then what is your heart for?

    Shinji Ikari: It would be better if I never existed. I should just die too.

    Rei Ayanami: Then why are you here?

    Shinji Ikari: Is it OK for me to be here?

    [the word "Silence" flashes on the screen and fades away]

    Shinji Ikari: NOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooo!

  • Misato Katsuragi: The power's still on. There's still time. Shinji, listen to me... from now on, you're on your own. You'll have to make your own decisions. No one can do it for you.

    Shinji Ikari: I... I can't. I'm no good. I can't pilot EVA if all I do is hurt and kill people. I thought I had no choice but to pilot EVA, but I was just lying to myself. I'm not worthy of piloting an EVA, because I don't understand anything. I'm incapable of doing anything good for anybody else! I did something terrible, though. I killed Kaworu! I'm a horrible person. I'm dishonest, and a coward. All I ever do is hurt people. So I'd rather do nothing at all!

    Misato Katsuragi: I'm not gonna feel sorry for you. If you don't like feeling pain, then you can just sit here and let them kill you! Crying isn't going to solve anything either!
