"気手ち悪い" is really disgusting

Er brush understood two meanings. The action of strangling the neck was a continuation of the strangulation before the completion. At that time, Shinji let Asuka love him. Humanity completion begins. Humanity is completed but Shinji rejects it. When she wakes up, she finds that Asuka is also there, and she also rejects it.

Asuka is probably the most distorted character in the whole eva. Like Shinji, she lacks an unconditional love. Only their feelings for each other are truly equal. This is probably the reason why they are so bitter and close to each other. . But unlike Shinji, in the process of seeking, once she gets it, she will be afraid and want to let go, so she refuses to be completed (it seems that she has been blessed and completed in a less distorted version. Kinda forgot...) Shinji wants to go back to the good times again, but Asuka is just afraid of not allowing anyone to invade her heart. (Maybe this was also caused by Shinji's injury)

Shinji's actions really prove that he has not been completed. If there is love, there is hatred. He cannot forgive Asuka for being indifferent and cruel to himself, because he has received "completeness" in various senses from Asuka. The moment Asuka touched his face stopped, proving once again that Shinji just wanted Asuka's love. Tears also proved once again that although Shinji refused to be completed, he was still pursuing completion. , so there is "気手ち悪い".

It is a disgust for the unchanging nature of human beings and a mockery of weakness. (This mockery faces you and me who are watching eva) Maybe because it has a higher philosophical meaning, but I think this sentence is just to really wake up the audience, stop chasing unreal resonance, okay Live it in real life.

Supplement in 2021.

I just found out that I didn't understand Asuka when I wrote this interpretation haha, maybe Shinji is too, but it's more of Asuka.

Asuka's complement is the power felt in a mother who may not have loved her, and it exists in Unit 2, accompanying and fighting alongside her.

What exactly is that love? Imaginary? Self-deception?

I don't think so. That's because Asuka has learned to face herself. She knows that the important thing is not whether she can get the approval of her mother and others, but to keep fighting for her beliefs. So with the aria on Bach's G string, Asuka achieves her own redemption. It was the true heart reborn in one's own beliefs, and the reality that was dragged back under the gun of Longinus.

Shinji who didn't choose to fight was still that kid, so in the face of cowardly tears, he said 気手ち悪い.

(Excessive interpretation of Anno again)

    My favorite in the whole series is this theatrical version is so dark and fateful

  • Aliza 2022-01-05 08:02:23

    The character of Shinji in this alternative ending theatrical version is obviously different from that in the TV version, deliberately focusing on the dark side that rarely appears in the TV version, and is full of the same restrained sexual consciousness in the TV version. I definitely support this attempt, but the problem is that it is seriously out of touch with the TV version. In other words, the TV version does not give enough support to what is wanted to express the discussion in this theatrical version, just like on the foundation of a bungalow. No matter how majestic and magnificent the construction of tall buildings is, it will collapse at a touch. The spectacle scene of the end of the world and hyperplasia is not new even in the era when it was born. Akira had already played it in 1988. It is both accurate and funny to see a summary:'a dark, brutal, psychedelic orgy of sex and violence that culminated in the mass extinction of humanity set to an optimistic J-pop song with lyrics about suicide.'

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!
