Jerking off .

After the lengthy announcement, the shore where Shinji first met Kaoru Nagisa appeared, along with the statue of an angel with a missing head. The telephone pole with the STD sign hangs on the reclining chair, and something suddenly falls off, splashing water with a screeching sound - Ruo Kaoru's head abruptly falls into the sea of ​​LCL.

Wake up, the ruffian is saying, Zhu Xun is dead. For the moment, forget about the ending of Nge's revenge against the society due to lack of funds, forget the bright, positive and lovely elements and atmosphere of chapters 1 to 15, and even forget the many rambunctious designs that are meaningless and meaningless when you study them carefully. OK, let's finish the dark story I want to tell you next.

White ward, unfamiliar ceiling, sleepy Asuka. Desperate and helpless, the cowardly young Shinji Ikari masturbated to Asuka's naked body, and after gasping for breath, there was only one hand left.

Let me see which otaku is not sitting upright, the ruffian said.

Evangelion theatrical version AIR, a brand new version that you have never seen before. Follow me, I will destroy the NERV I created with my own hands, destroy all innocent or guilty people whether they live or die, destroy all your fantasies as a bystander of this "Mecha & Naked Beautiful Girl Save the World" work.

And masturbation is just the beginning.

On the eve of NERV being swept apart by seele, everyone had their own plans. Apart from the above two people, Ikari Yuantang hopes to meet Ikari Yui again through Adam and Ayanbori. Akagi Ritsuko's heart is full of love and hatred, because in the end, her mother and daughter's life will not be able to match the only chance in Ikari Yuandu's heart. Miri Katsuragi adheres to the legacy of blessing Ryoji and makes a last crazy effort to find out the truth. The building will collapse, and the storm will collapse. Just as no snowflake is innocent, no one can escape the third world impact.

You ask me what despair is . Despair is the betrayal of Ayanari who met Ikarigendo's long-cherished wish, Despair is Ritsuko, but Magi's death was rejected by Naoko as a woman, Despair is Misato's powerless death leaning against the wall, the kiss of adulthood is her heart A well-known goodbye. Despair is still the fate of Asuka's defeat of nine mass-produced machines, and the fate of being cut into pieces by Lang's guns.

Our director, Hideaki Anno, used the most precise shots, scripts and settings to create the third new Tokyo city under the apocalypse and the characters and emotions that took place underground. Compared with EVA's decadent and gloomy body shape and richness The fluid movement of the violent aesthetic is overshadowed by it. Afterwards, he smashed everything to pieces by means that no one could have imagined, and then presented you the broken world and the human heart in every detail. This is despair itself.

For the vast majority of viewers who only focus on the plot itself and can only get one sentence "wtf", "Sincerely For You" is no longer important. So what if Shinji became a god, there was no Misato, no Ayanami, no Asuka, and even his strict and ruthless father turned into LCL. What's more, the future plot direction is unclear: there are many meaningless scene rotations, reality and animation are intertwined, and sweet death has come. We have no way of knowing what the empty, chattering subtitles are trying to convey, and for the first time, we are despairing of the film but of the plot: what are you trying to say? Compared with the vast world that is unclear and unclear, it seems that Nge's stream of consciousness "happy ending" with "congratulations" seems to be more acceptable.

Fortunately, the time of confusion was not too long. At the end of the story, Shinji and Asuka lay side by side on the same shore. There is no logic and no plot. In fact, in the end, the government no longer needs these things that are regarded as details. Shinji rode on Asuka and seemed to be doing what was supposed to be done in the opening ward. This pair of twins who are in many mysterious similar situations in the series, one canthus tearing with tears and gradually ties the hands that are strangling the neck, and the other cheeks are deeply saddened.

In this freeze frame, Asuka is Shinji himself and the whole world. The entire EVA, including nge, eoe, and even the new theatrical version, broke the Q. Ikari Shinji's rejection of himself and the world reached its absolute climax. Guilt, remorse, and pain were intertwined in his heart. Driving EVA to gain the affirmation of others has long been in vain. A beach - there is absolutely no reason to live in the world anymore. If I am the world, there is absolutely no need for the world to remain.

But he was only a fragile and indecisive fourteen-year-old after all, and he was human after all. Unexpectedly, he let go and let himself fall into the boundless and heart-wrenching sobbing. Here we can say that he chooses to forgive, choose redemption, and even choose to escape; here Shinji Ikari is the human being itself. Asuka also wiped away tears for him.

The end of despair is endless hope—hope. Adam and Lilith are still alive, born to death, and you are the only and absolute freedom. On the mediocre side of the screen, we still have a long life and time, and we can also have the courage and tears to be independent in the world.
