Shinji choosing to live, knowing that he will get hurt but that there will be people who love him is just a powerful message and is incredibly beautiful.
-Evangelion’s final episode: I’m so happy Shinji finally realized that he wants to live even if instrumentality took place -The end of evangelion: I WANT TO DIE
To this day, i think this was one of the only times i ever cried watching a show/movie. This ending was perfect for a show like evangelion and i thought it had a great message about loving yourself and finding who you really are and it really stuck to me as a person, because Shinji, in my opinion showed many of the flaws humans try to hide. This ending and the tips it showed to try make you change, become happier and more confident in yourself in the process. And for that reason alone evangelion has always been my favourite anime
I am not an expert but to keep it simple, in ep 25,26 ikari is given the choice of the Human Intrumentality Project. Will every human become one, or will they stay the same. But it is more a choice for shinji: will he accept himself or not. And so these 2 episodes are an intern monologue where he judges all the characters, trying to understand them. And at the end, he accepts that he is a human, that he will suffer. And this way overcome his depression, and everyone congratulate him at the end. These 2 episodes would be a little sad because there is no explanations at all about what is really happening in the real world, so Gainax made End of Evangelion which tells this part of the story. (Pls Watch it, even if the end is way darker than NGE end) And the combination of these two parts is really really cool. Pls remember, i am a big newbie about Evangelion, there are people who could make thesis about the Ep 25 26 =)
I just noticed in evangelion Kaji ,Ritsukos background has no clouds in the sky Shinji also doesnt have clouds at the beginning but his background change when everyone says congratulations and shinji accepted it by saying thank you ( i think that very moment he denied instrumentality) Edit: the lack of clouds i assume represent death and shinji denies instrumentality making him alive
Shinji is shown smiling in End of Evangelion when he's shouting "You betrayed me, you betrayed my feelings!" Definitely wasn't smiling in the moment, but they showed that shot anyway.
This ending is so weirdly beautiful. Like, I get if you don’t like it, it’s weird, unorthodox, whatever other adjectives you can use, I used to feel the same way about it but now I can’t help but cry over this oddly poignant ending
I imagine most of them will become un-juiced. Think about it. Shinji and Asuka, two of the most self-loathing and damaged characters in the series decided that they could face the pain of individual existence, so I imagine most of humanity will decide the same thing.
whenever i feel down as a young man who still have a lot ahead of him, i always come back to this video (or even the full episode) to help me set my heart & mind on the right track and remind myself to look up ahead cuz there’s still a future out there waiting for me. congratulations me, things were not always easy but you’ve managed to survive for 21 years ❤️
So.. He is a millennial huh? That's why he has a problematic psychological condition. Maybe he also confuse what gender he is and maybe he think about feminism and veganism and gluten intolerant and some stuff about that?
This scene for some reason made me really happy when i was in kid in school now im 20yo adult and still remember this as happiest moment in my life planing to kms in a few months
@@transformalizer uh, did he smile after he choked Asuka in the middle of nowhere surrounded by orange sea with gigantic head of Rei that cracked open?
This is one of my favorite anime endings, mostly because all the background of the series, so much dark and depressive, and watching all the characters saying congratulations to Shinji, was incredible
I'm a patient of depression, I tried to k*ll myself twice this year bc of year loss and drop out in my academics. Lost so many of my peers and friends meanwhile I was preparing for my exams and today 23/11/2021 I finally sat for my last delayed exam! Played this clip, felt like giving myself a small treat
End of Evangelion is not an alternate ending. Its THE ending. SPOILERS . . . . . . . The anime ending is happening inside Shinji's head. The movie depicts what was going on in the real world.
he wants to live, he will still face the consequences of his actions, he will still be unhappy until he finds happiness, he will still feel pain, but despite all that he wants to fucking live. That's fucking beautiful
@@blutroyale8072 Rei was from Lilith, the origin of humans, not Adam . Also, if we follow end of evangelion movie lore, then she would have had full control over instrumentality, so it's fine for her to appear.
This ending is the best ending. It breaks and soothes my heart all the same- people say it makes no sense, but i've never felt so satisfied by an ending.
It doesn't make sense tho. The ending still had flaws and felt rushed. I only like it because it connects to End Of Evangelion. It's very lackluster on it's own.
I've been aware of this scene for years and always thought about how absolutely fucking goofy it is, especially as the final sendoff of a series But now after finally having seen the show in its entirety... this is honestly the best ending. It's what Shinji and we as a viewer deserve, and I wouldn't want it any other way
@@jonaspacina see, you keep hoping, i was like you, i thought"maybe one day humans can understand each other." But that was no more than stupid hope. Keep hoping and see where will it get you, or take action, learn from my mistakes
This is scene is surreal. It gives me hope that one day someone i hold dear will omedetou me just for being me or put in an effort to know who i am rather than just appreciating me for my accomplishments which at this point means nothing to me.
This scene is perfect, the music (good, or dont be) makes me feel a lot of things, the characters saying "congratulations", the phrase "to my father, thank you, to my mother, farewell and for all the childrens congratulations" have some mysterious powers, all of this relieves the tension that happens before that scene in the episode, its so well made, every time i see it get chills. Hideaki anno is a true genius.
Notice how only Misato, Asuka, Rei, Gendo, Yui and obviously Pen-Pen are in the middle of the shot. I think that shows how important they are to Shinji.
For those who'se fighting depression, anxiety, self-harm or Demon's inside your Head.. when you finally beat them and chose to live. This scene is personally ment for you all..
Honestly love this ending, I watched it in a time of my life where I needed to see something like this as well as it being one of the few times we see shinji genuinely happy That being said I favor the end of evangelion and hold it as my favorite anime movie of all time
It's my birthday today and a couple of people have sent me this video to congratulate me. I cried, a lot. Every night on my birthday I watch this scene and remind myself of how much I have achieved in the past year of my life. おめでとう, everyone ♥️
the anime ending is my favorite ending to any work of art I've seen thus far, and honestly I have found more closure in the last 2 episodes of the show than I've had during many years of medication and therapy and I'm grateful for that
I come here every now and then just so i can act like i'm being the one congratulated, sometimes i need to hear this, this video makes me happy in a really atypical way. I think it's just a need to remind myself that every week i live should be a congratulation. Omedetou everyone! Hope y'all are able to keep going even with all the difficulties and problems.
It's been 2 years since I first watched this and I still can't grasp how this ending got so much hate It's beautiful, I tear up everytime I watch the full episode
Seeing Shinji suffering is like seeing myself suffer, because at one point in time I was almost exactly like him, especially back in 10th grade when I was bullied to the brink of suicide. I simply cannot tolerate watching Eva. I felt forced to relive my trauma upon viewing it. I’m deathly afraid of it. Twice I had a nightmare where I saw myself as Shinji choking Asuka and starting the Third Impact. I’ve been struggling with this newfound depression ever since. This series is nothing but a bright shining lie. There is no instant cure for depression as so many on RUclips and Reddit claimed and praised this series to be. I was obsessed with the series for over a year to try and outwit the Coronavirus pandemic. It only increased the burden, and kept the memory of my friend’s recent suicide alive. Sometimes I hate myself because I fail to appreciate this series which people treat larger than life, because of how much pain it resurfaces. Watching the End of Evangelion was like peering into a broken mirror, and I was viewing the hell I would’ve put myself through had things turned out differently, had I decided to give up living. It still haunts me to this day. I sought emotional refuge in the Evangelion fandom on Discord. Because the series addresses the cost of trauma I hoped they would take me seriously. They didn’t. Instead they mocked my mental health and even created a rumor of my past to get me banned off almost all the servers, and spiraling me further down the rabbit hole. Sometimes I hate myself because I fail to appreciate what so many have claimed cured them of their depression.
Gotta love how some or most people never make it to this scene which is quite possibly the happiest scene in the anime just cuz they can't be bothered with the last 2 episodes.
high quality congratulations

Especially if u relate to having depression like shinji it makes u tear up
if only it wasn't completely unrelated to the rest of the anime and didn't happen as every human mind was combined into one

Pls remember, i am a big newbie about Evangelion, there are people who could make thesis about the Ep 25 26 =)
Paullepetittrain very very understandable, thanks a lot for explaining this to me
@dig duck Until its released in 3020
I still like better the movie tho...
The only two characters to die by gunshot are the only two characters who have clear skies behind them in this scene.
Neil Jacob Nacilla The only two characters to die by gunshot to the head are the only two characters who have clear skies behind them in this scene.
Neil Jacob Nacilla Misato died in an explosion in EoE
Shinji has clear skies in the beginning tho
I just noticed in evangelion Kaji ,Ritsukos background has no clouds in the sky
Shinji also doesnt have clouds at the beginning but his background change when everyone says congratulations and shinji accepted it by saying thank you ( i think that very moment he denied instrumentality)
Edit: the lack of clouds i assume represent death and shinji denies instrumentality making him alive
@@sebastianotamburrini9729 she was shot in the spine first tho
this is the best ending, solely because Shinji smiled. he never once did in the End of Evangelion.
Or.. Maybe he did. But u forgot it. In the early episodes of the series maybe
yeah, didn't seem to be as happy as this tho
also, i was talking about the end of evangelion tho
Shinji is shown smiling in End of Evangelion when he's shouting "You betrayed me, you betrayed my feelings!" Definitely wasn't smiling in the moment, but they showed that shot anyway.
He was smiling when he saw Kaworu in EoE , when the spear covered the Eva
Him smiling and saying thank you breaks my heart every time
THIS!!!
They forgot to say "congratulations to all the people who survive this show"

And now Chadsuke tapped Asuka
and he's the only one who's mentally stable
honestly i find it ironic that a show many people consider to make people depressed helped me cope with my anxiety, in particular this scene.
It’s because it was made for depressed people. If you are a happy camper and watch sad trauma robot show you’ll probably hate it
I find it really relatable and this scene was really made for me lol
Banksy once said that art should comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable

pretty messed up when you realize Shinji just turned everyone into orange juice.
Bo Ning Ma eh, they can be dejuiced
Bo Ning Ma They can be un-juiced, but only if they truly want to be unjuiced.
I imagine most of them will become un-juiced. Think about it. Shinji and Asuka, two of the most self-loathing and damaged characters in the series decided that they could face the pain of individual existence, so I imagine most of humanity will decide the same thing.
No, he was the one to choose that they can reassemble themselves from LCL

I was obsessed with the series for over a year to try and outwit the Coronavirus pandemic. It only increased the burden, and kept the memory of my friend’s recent suicide alive. Sometimes I hate myself because I fail to appreciate this series which people treat larger than life, because of how much pain it resurfaces.
Watching the End of Evangelion was like peering into a broken mirror, and I was viewing the hell I would’ve put myself through had things turned out differently, had I decided to give up living. It still haunts me to this day.
I sought emotional refuge in the Evangelion fandom on Discord. Because the series addresses the cost of trauma I hoped they would take me seriously. They didn’t. Instead they mocked my mental health and even created a rumor of my past to get me banned off almost all the servers, and spiraling me further down the rabbit hole.
Sometimes I hate myself because I fail to appreciate what so many have claimed cured them of their depression.
Gotta love how some or most people never make it to this scene which is quite possibly the happiest scene in the anime just cuz they can't be bothered with the last 2 episodes.
This is a certified congratulations moment
