Leave it to me to find a video game ending from 2005 just to find any happy moments between Asuka and Shinji
relatable
I wish this game was canon. Oh well, it is in my heart.
@@Rishi123456789 better than any of the movies
@@bertbargo7162 atleast the ending with this one doesnt confuse us
We want to find our happiness in others happiness.
this is really cute, I like that this game did keep some of the character drama from the original series, like shinji seeking gendo's praise and asuka wanting people to care for her. Especially for this ending, she softens up and shows that she wants him to hold her, which matches up with what we found out when that angel attacked her mind. Shinji also shows some initiative by asking her to come to the bus shelter, although a simple gesture we do know he has compassion for his friends.
Seeing this after watching Thrice Upon a Time... That hug scene in the rain did it for me.
yeah, screw the thieving pirate ship, the only ship that gets to truly sail is AsukaxShinji! Thanks for the upload.
agreed
Was the ship talk also referring to asuka and shinji? Seems like a hint from the game to player.
@@JenkoRun Unlikely, "shipping" is an English fandom term.
@@FelipeFritschF2 Hmm, makes sense.
@Ushanka98 Shinji x Kensuke is the best.
Why am I crying😢 I’ve never even seen this game before. It’s probably just seeing asuka and Shinji happy for once
*MY SHIP HAS SAILED NOW I CAN DIE PEACEFULLY*
For all of you who want to see more ShinjixAsuka material, read the manga "Evangelion: Re-Take". It's a a fucking masterpiece. As dark and epic as the original series, but also more heartwarming, and it makes Asuka's and Shinji's relationship the center of the story. Better than The End of Evangelion, in my humble opinion.
Specify the all ages version. It's not terrible for a doujin but there are still a lot of issues, particularly the behavior of certain characters. If you adopt the theory that it's all a dream except for the final scene of Asuka and Shinji on the beach again it's much better and explains all the issues.
@@justoneguy2487 You are talking about Rei's behavior in Re-Take, right? I understand that many people are taken aback by it, but personally I don't mind it at all. For one thing, it's a minor, minor part of the plot. And second, I think Rei's behavior can be explained in light of the circumstances of the story, but I don't wanna overwhelm you with my headcanon about why Re-Take's Rei is actually QRei lol
Epilogue of evangelion is more beautiful.
Also read 2nd Try by JimmyWolk
I read that, love that manga. Jesus it's honestly better than the Rebuild movies. Especially the ending which just is bizzare that Shinji and Asuka don't end up together.
アスカとこういう希望に溢れたちょっと切なくて優しい結末があってもいいですよね。嬉しいです。
4:10 that's honestly not what I would expect from Asuka, but... who cares after all. Let me appreciate this cute single moment between them.
To me this is like what would happen if they could just communicate with each other. Like, sure, they still have all the insane trauma but if they're were just able to open up to each other I think this is what you'd see. Everything that happens in the the series is because they can't talk to each other out of fear of hurting themselves but we see, especially in Asuka's mind violation episode that this is what they want.
I was honestly expecting 3.0+1.0 to end something like this. Like the're not in a relationship but at least they're shown to be open with each other about their feelings and willing to see what happens.
This is very sad, Mana had to leave and Shinji seems mad at her and Asuka also makes him decide to burn the photo and give up that pendant, that’s sad
I HATE MANA BRO
1:58-2:10 Asuka lowkey a psychopath
She's Kanye of Tokyo-3
And then End of Evangelion happens
This is before toji even pilots unit 04,
Asuka's a total Yandere! Telling her love interest to forget someone who died tragically while feeling absolute warmth in her heart being with her crush as he mourns for another girl.
Such a beautiful moment, I hope the creator could do a rebuild for this one . Asuka and Shinji are wonderful together. It's perfect, I hope they do in the future.
There is a sequel to the game that also has a shinjixasuka ending
@@mickzero whats the sequels name?
@@Creed606 Girlfriend of steel 2. There is also the PS2 game that goes by the name "Neon Genesis Evengalion 2" that has many unlockable files that are considered soft canon due to Anno having worked on it himself and the information being taken from an interview with himself.
This makes the series even better but i wanna know... Is this canon? It would put comfort for the depressing vibes 😂🙏
No it's not canon sadly but honestly the canon endings are open to interpretation as it is. My view is that Asuka and Shinji do like each other and share a bond that transcends even the power of the Angels. Even in End of Evangelion, they somehow survive
@@EmpressTiffanyOfBrittany That's a good answer. I think I share your opinion.
BLACKIESBOY Toji’s friend (forgot his name) said that in the second part
Tapu Trainer Kensuke
It's unclear, Anno says you can interpret Evangelion however you'd like. However, if it makes you feel better, there is a Fan Theory stating that everything in Evangelion is canon, and that all the alternate continuities and spinoffs, no matter how bizarre, are the result of parallel universes and alternate timeline branches being created after every 3rd Impact. in other words they are all tied together in some kind of huge connected MCU type sh%t, so I guess, at least if this theory is how you interpret Evangelion's conclusion, this would basically be an alternate/parallel branch off Neon Genesis’ Timeline where Shinji would avert Asuka’s downfall arc
I don't care what Arno says. This is now canon for me!
Better than 3.0+1.0
Asuka x Shinji 4 life, brah.
the only real ending
I like this ending.
In my head this is canon
*I AM GOING DOWN WITH THIS SHIP*
The best ending...
The best finale 😎🤜🤛
I might cry
Shinji x Asuka forever~
4:10 my asushin heart is now happy thank you
0:56 wait asuka, that is sooo mean...
2:00 she burned not only the photo
There was a 4th ending on the PS2, can’t someone find that and put it on RUclips? The 4th ending sounds so much happier than the Mana ending and the Kaji ending, the way I see it, the only 2 happy endings are this Asuka Ending, and the exclusive PS2 ending, someone should put that on RUclips
Carsen Maxwell it is on RUclips just not english
If it's not on RUclips I'm sure it's on the wiki or evangelion fandom
vikrant dandekar wish I could see the dialogue tho
@@MrCat-se7ws same bro 😐😞
@@MrCat-se7ws bro I found this on the wiki
There is also an additional ending, exclusive to the PS2 release of the game. In it, seeking shelter from the rain, Shinji tries to forget his problems, and Mana, with a drink. He eventually falls in the trash outside and is found by Mana. After drying his clothes, the two spend the night together and express their feelings for one another. Mana eventually ends up with NERV, after a lot of paperwork, so she can be with Shinji. Asuka has moved on with her life and the final shot is Shinji and Mana holding hands as Mana says 'thank you'.
Asushin > Kawoshin
The sensation the writing evokes is, unexpectedly, reflexive of NGE, like, it feels that a route for it in the anime, would be executed like this.
Yokan
so that means mana just dies at the hospital?
4:20 this looks so cursed to my eyes, idk, I'm just not used to seeing those two like that
the ending break me
I know I ship this ending hard
smoking that mana pack 🚬
I hate Mana. Even before I played Girlfriend of Steel I hated her. I played the Shinji Ikari Raising Project first (which Mana was in) and I hated her in that and before that. Asuka ending is the best cause Asuka is best girl, Asushin for life, and Mana dies. 10/10 would kill Mana again
This is why shin eva put a end to this shit. Asushin is the worst and Eva staff know it. You all are unstable brats that cares about nobody but you're own toxic shipping.
Fuck mana kill mana burn mana
Can anyone tell me the name to the ending credits song?
The ending song for the video game is "Yokan" ("Premonition"), sung by Yoko Takahashi.
If evangelion,s universe runs in a cycle then will be canon . What we tell in 3.0 + 1.0 maybe or maybe not I,m happy
Este es mi final
I gotta play this game. ShinjiX Asuka forever...goddamn Rebuild movies ruined it though.
Yeah, but the 4th movie ending also kinda makes sense, as Mari is the only one Shinji has no emotional baggage. Also, Kensuke/Asuka is weird.
@@sayansaha155 But there really isn't anything showing why he would even consider her, I liked the emotional baggage. It's more human.
@@Deuteromis Absolutely. But also consider this. The final movie was supposed to come sometime after 2012. Then it got delayed to post 2016. Then 2020. Then 2021. At this point, I think Anno thought choosing Mari over Asuka would make for a cleaner ending. Even though prior to the last movie she was a glorified fan service. And hey, at least the movie series has finally ended. I'm happy just to see Shinji mature. Let's leave the fan shipping to the fanfictions.
@@sayansaha155 I don't believe that, if so, then he would have given a reason why Shinji would have chosen her. She's an one dimensional character with no back story or character development. It's like saying I choose her because she looks good or has big tits. She was fan service and just didn't add anything.
There is a reason why there is fan shipping between Shinji and Asuka, they have chemistry and opposites. It would have shown growth that they both matured and learned to accept their feelings for one another.
Oh I forgot to mention that the whole Kensuke/Auska relationship is weird, and it stems from a deleted scene from last original movie. The scene is where it's hinted that Auska gave Kensuke a BJ and she talks about how disgusting it was.
@@Deuteromis ooh...good thing they deleted it. I'm Shinji x Asuka all the way, so...
THIS A GAME TOO?
wow
How English sub?
Ray wife shinji
@Sebastian Perez ????
@@simonTalk Rei is a clone of Shinjis mom and Lilith, shes essentially a goddess given the form of a human. She produces the LCL fluid for the Evas and shes steadily cloned to essentially mass produce it. Its why shes the key for instrumentality. Kaworu Nagisa is a clone of Adam given physical form. Its why they are the final two angels in the series. He essentially does end up having sex with Rei but in like the most metaphysical way possible. Its why Rei has so confused and has existential self reflection, because she had to be reminded that shes Lilith. I like this one fan theory/fiction that stated that Shinji had chosen Auska to come back with him because he loved her. Shinji gets to decide the fate of the world and in the end he literally brings Auska back from the dead.
@@jrlpixels421 I mean, another world will clone, not clone, don't care.
You have a simple mind 😆 if he had choosen Rei then he wouldn't have remade the world. Rei isn't a person like you or me, she's like a Lovecraftian goddess. Have you not seen the end?
@@simonTalk lol, reiXshinji cant happen whether you wanna accept it or not...
wtf es esto
This ending make asuka look stupid. All Shinji does is ignore her, bad mouth her to mina and confess his feelings for mina which make her cry. The only reason why he whit her is cause mina die and asuka accept this like a stupid girl? Who wrote this shit? It like they don't care how badly shinji treat anyone just as long he end up whit any girl? Do glad shin Eva was made to put a end to this trash writing.
So glad in shin eva asuka grow up and out grew that stupid soy boy fethis and end up whit a real man like kenken who love and accept her for who she really is. Good man who won't ignore her nor treat her badly like shinji always do. I hope they never make games like this anymore cause all it does is send out the wrong message to Eva clowns who don't know any better.
Honestly, this is kind of what I was expecting at the end of 4.0. Shinji finally come to terms with his past and was ready to deal with the world the way it is and not how he wanted it to be. Asuka had grown too but still had walls up and realized she still had feelings for Shinji when she saw him again. I wasn't expecting them to be in a relationship or anything but just something like the two of them sitting on The Beach and one of them asking something like "are you ready?" and the other replying "yeah, I am" and then a shot of them walking into the real world holding hands or something. Just an acknowledgement that they had both finally acknowledged their feelings and were willing to see what would happen.
People always ask me "Asuka said she was over Shinji in 4.0.Why do you say she had feelings for him?" For me there's a few hints.
The first is the way she follows him to the lake when he wants to be alone, she obviously still cares about him on some level.
The second is when she went back to tell him that she "thinks she had a crush on him but grew up first" is a pretty big one. No one, who's about to embark on a suicide mission, is going to tell someone "hey I just wanted to let you know before we all die that I liked you but I don't anymore"; that's not tying up loose ends. If she wanted to tie up loose ends she could have said something like "I'm really sorry how I treated you. I saw myself in you and I didn't like that so I lashed out. I should have tried harder to explain myself and to understand you." The way she tells him I liked you but not any more is almost like she's trying to see his reaction and to also test herself to see how she reacts to saying it out loud. I think some part of her wanted to hurt Shinji for disappearing like that for 14 years.
Thirdly, she says to him "I think I liked you". We know from the mind violation episode and from when they're in instrumentality, there's no doubt that she knew she liked him and that's what made her so angry. She liked him even though he was like the opposite of everything she claimed to admire (independance, strength, success by defeating others, etc.).
Fourth, Mari asks her how "the little doggy is doing" and if there's been any progress. Asuka says she's not interested in Shinji but I see that as an indicator that Asuka may have shared her feelings about Shinji to Mari and Mari sees that there's still something there.
And finally, people lying about their feeling for others is a core theme throughout the series and movies. Everyone is constantly in denial about their feelings for each other. Asuka claims to have grown up but we still hear her admit to her loneliness in Kensuke's cabin. Every with her and Mari hanging out all the time and experiencing the last 14 years together, she still doesn't have any real connections to people. I think Mari is more like a work friend for her. With all that said, I think her line to Shinji was said more for her own benefit than hers. Just like how the "practice kiss" was done out of boredom, how Shinji wasn't supposed to open the door between their rooms (walls of Jericho which we see in the mind violation episode just how lonely she was after she shut the door), and even Misato's lie to Kaji about loving someone else (although at least she got to admit it to him). Lying to hide your true feelings is constant.
Anyway, all this to say that I was disappointed by the end of 4.0. I'm not going to do some weird theorycrafting about Shinji and Mari. I accept that for whatever reason, they decided not to pair up Shinji and Asuka and it broke my heart; especially seeing Asuka alone on the train platform at the end. To me, the series and movies were all about learning to open up to people and talk to them. We finally get two main characters, who couldn't bring themselves to admit their feelings for eachother, starting to learn this and then the movie says "huh, that's interesting, anyway, how about this?" and does a 180 degree turn.
That 4 ending is open for interpretation. One can assume Marie takes Shinji to finally cross that platform to the other side where everyone is standing... Since Shinji specifically asked Marie to get him after he finished the impact...
One can also assume Shinji finally closed all that alternate reality, closed all that alternate endings. And he picked one world where he is a normal teen but he still needed Marie to get him out of the loop and onto the world he chose.
