find your heart

It's been a long time since I watched it, and then I repeated it over and over again until everyone in the dormitory would hum the song "Wing を く だ さ い". Every time, I am full of emotions, and some scattered words flash in my mind, but I can't find the beginning.
Why?
Maybe EVA carries too many childhood memories.
Remember when it was in the fourth grade, it was still a simple era, there was no mobile phone, no Internet, and of course, there was no sister Feng. At that time, China was not a “super” country with the second-largest GDP, and Coca-Cola was a luxury that I could only see from afar. Picking up 50 cents would make me happy for a long time, so much so that I went to the same place every day like a rabbit. Stay in one spot until you completely forget about it. With those "dead babies" in the eyes of the teachers, pinching balls in the sand pit, running wild on the playground covered with cinders with bare feet, and occasionally climbing the walls and trees into the black Internet cafe to play the legend of Star Red Alert CS, and finished playing, I went to the cold noodle stand opened by Deng Xiangjun's mother after she was laid off to buy a bowl of cold noodles, doubled the amount of chili peppers, and sticking out her tongue. In short, living a very silly and naive life.
Then I came across EVA. Needless to say, I am shocked. Since then, I have determined to be a director of animation. Although I have drifted away from me now, I still will not laugh at the ideals at that time, because I am serious. At that time, my dream was to collect a set of VCDs of "Eagle Warrior" on my birthday. It lay quietly in the corner of the first floor of the Old Xinhua Bookstore. 55 yuan was undoubtedly an astronomical figure for me at that time. I once wanted to suggest to my parents that if I pass the exam, buy me a set. But at that time, I was so timid that I couldn't even say this proposal. So I had to go to the bookstore to meet him every Saturday on time. I don't know how many fingerprints I left on the thin plastic envelope, layer after layer. In the end it was bought and I never saw it again.
Of course, when I was in junior high school, I finally got my wish and waited for a hardcover DVD, but that was another story.
Thanks to the country, the party, and the limited set of Chongqing, which gave me the simple dream of childhood.

=========Realistic dividing line==========

Now I have become a college student in the imperial capital that I once thought was very honorable and ideal. I live a life no different from squatting at home, relying on instant noodles, ham sausages and packaged American dramas. I still like to go over the wall, of course, on some discordant websites, and I like to sneer at the shitty Global Shit News. Live elective courses must be skipped, compulsory courses are selected skip the days. Often appearing in the study room, the result is just sleeping in it. Occasionally go to the library to borrow two books, put them in the drawer to eat ashes, and return them to the library after a month. The grades are not bad, but this can only reflect the madness of staying up all night during the exam period. It has nothing to do with your ability and half a dime. Here, there is no so-called ideal, there is no pleasure in pursuing the truth, there is just a lot of emptiness.
What a horrible university.
At this time, the download link of "Broken" appeared on the homepage of Verycd.
Being able to openly enjoy endless resources online is, in my opinion, one of the few advantages of this long introductory stage. Although this poor advantage is about to be wiped out by radio and television. At this moment, EVA is no longer a luxury in my life. In the era of eDonkey and Thunder, she is just a click of a mouse.
Ignoring my roommate's complaints about the internet speed, I forcibly occupied this 2M small water pipe during the peak period. After 4 hours, I finally finished taking off and dragging, and then opened PotPlayer. It's written on a stick, but it works really well.
Two hours later, "Wing を く だ さ い" sounded.

I cried.

=========The dividing line of fake movie reviews =========

There is a composition technique called question-pointing. The primary school Chinese teacher warned us that no matter how far the text is off-topic, as long as it is forced back at the end , then you can still have a near miss, turn a bad luck into a lucky one, and turn a danger into a safe one.
Of course I'm a mid-level master.

The new EVA naturally has a new atmosphere. A very good and powerful apostle, with the 3D technology of the new era, presented in front of our eyes. The high-impact battle scenes, the right storyboards, unparalleled tension, and a god-level soundtrack at your fingertips. Except the characters are slightly broken, it can be said that the new EVA is complete in terms of hardware.
But that's not what I care about the most.

EVA is a masterpiece, which is already the golden rule of the ACG world. It is the same as the 299 792 458 meters per second of light and the absolute zero degree of -273.1°. Endless fights.
However, the original EVA is not perfect for me, it can even be said to be an unfinished work. Whether it’s the unintelligible episodes 25 and 26 of the TV version, or the weird ending in which all the people in the world have turned orange, for me, they can’t be the end of EVA. That's just gibberish after the ruffian's own runaway synchronization rate exceeds 400%.
So I look forward to the new EVA can bring me an ending, a real ending.
So we saw, the man's Shinji, Limbo who said "thank you", Asuka who was no longer so entangled, the powerful and cute glasses girl, and even the vicious father was no longer so annoying. All of this seems to indicate that the ruffian really changed his mind this time.

Can the new EVA really give an ending?
The theatrical version is not over yet, I dare not say, what will happen if the ruffian goes berserk.
However, I am confident, because the ruffian is giving the answer.
The answers to the questions he'd grappled with and scratched his hair for.
In "Broken", I found it.

As long as you have the heart, you can form a body.

This is the biggest suspense that EOE gave me, can people restore their bodies from the LCL sea? Can they get their hearts back?

The ruffian clearly said that he is not a ruffian. On the one hand, he comforted us through Lin Yuan's soothing narration, and on the other hand, he used the ending full of death and flesh and blood to make us completely give up.

But in "Broken", everything is different.
The runaway No. 1 pilot held Li Angel's S2 mechanism and used its flesh and blood to form Ling Bo's body. In an instant, the world changed, and the young man became a god.

——Open your wings to the free sky without sorrow.

This is the ruffian's answer.
As long as the heart that desires is found, there is still hope for everything.
This is what I like most about "Broken", without the gloom and obscurity, in exchange for passionate ideals and full of romance.

It's time to pick yourself up, find your heart, and start again.
