In 1995, a Japanese animation turned out.
After that, it became "hot" out of control.
26-episode anime TV has become an insurmountable Japanese comic classic.
several theatrical editions, have won very good box office results.
And just this year, the "sacred work" in the hearts of countless people finally came to an end.
This is the end of a generation of youth-
Neon Genesis Evangelion Theatrical Edition: The End
img1p3p0 total Evangelion Edition.
's 1997 "Dead and Rebirth" and "True For You" can be seen as a supplement to the TV animation version.
Beginning in 2007, Anno Hideaki has successively launched a new theatrical version that is different from the previous version.
in order, they are "Foreword", "Broken" and "Q" respectively.
and the last one,It is the long-awaited "The End" by thousands of fans.
The new theater version although the plot "magic change", but the settings are basically the same.
The story takes place in 2000 in the overhead world.
At that time, the meteorite fell, the temperature soared, and global disasters continued.
A few years later, a monster named "Apostle" invaded the earth, bringing a new crisis to mankind.
In order to fight against the "apostle", mankind has developed a new type of weapon, referred to as EVA .
At first glance, you might think that EVA is similar to a mecha like Gundam.
But in fact, it is made from a clone of the "Apostle", which requires human will and body response to control it.
Therefore, the driver’s fit is extremely demanding.
And this anime is about three boys and girls driving EVA.
碇 Shinji .
An introverted, non-social "frustrated" teenager, he is called the most "wasteful" male protagonist in history.
Since childhood, his mother passed away and was abandoned by his father.
finally reunited with his father when he was 14 years old.
Unexpectedly, what was ushered in was a cold command from his father: driving the EVA to fight the "Apostle".
No way, Shinji had to force himself to obey orders.
But his heart is very tangled: low self-esteem and cowardice.
even often denies their value.
Asuka .
A fierce-tempered lady who is domineering and aggressive.
But in fact, her arrogance in front of others is just to hide the fragility and anxiety in her heart.
The unfortunate childhood experience caused her extreme character.
driving EVA,Nature has become an important way for her to prove herself to the world.
綠波丽 .
A girl with a mysterious life experience and a cold feeling, this character is regarded as the originator of the "three-no girl".
In fact, her true identity is a clone made from the somatic cells of Lilith and the DNA of Shinji’s mother.
At first, she was just a "chess piece" for 碇源堂 to complete the plan.
But after meeting Shinji, she gradually has independent thinking.
In the subsequent plots, I learned about the emotions between people and understood what fetters are.
I found out that the three protagonists in the anime are completely different from the traditional hot-blooded comics.
not only does not have the youthful spirit of a rib, but is very closed inside, as if out of step with the whole world .
Looking further down, the plot becomes more and more obscure.
's works introduce a lot of philosophical and religious metaphors.
Adam, Lilith, Linlin, Dead Sea Documents, Tree of Life ……
was not a young monster at all. Simple story.
The "Human Completion Project" behind this open line is the core theme of the work.
What is the "Human Completion Project"?
In the setting of EVA, "Apostles" are the descendants of Adam,
They eat the fruit of life, so they have strong vitality, but they cannot think.
Humans are the offspring of Lilith.
They have eaten the fruits of wisdom, so they have extraordinary wisdom.
But the body and heart are very fragile.
Moreover, it is precisely because of wisdom that the unbreakable "wall of the heart" is created between people.
In order to get rid of this bondage,The "Human Completion Plan" came into being. How does
operate?
In anime, it is mainly through a series of rituals to turn all human beings into "orange juice".
Then, return to Lilith's mother.
In this way, the human spirit becomes one, and there is no more dispute or separation between each other.
can be at the end of the TV version, but Shinji alone makes the whole plan go to waste.
This boy who always escapes, finally chose not to escape at the last moment.
He decided to embrace the cruel and heavy reality and continue to stay in this imperfect world.
The story of the movie "The End" happened after 's "third shock" .
As the "culprit" Shinji Ikura is sluggish all day long, and he doesn't think about eating or drinking.
He wandered in the No. 3 village reconstructed after the disaster, and met his old classmates Touji and Aida here.
Compared with the previous work, the overall tone of this edition is more lively and optimistic.
is also more humane.
shows the daily life of the people in No. 3 Village, ranging from transportation to construction.
Small to basic necessities, food, housing and transportation, undoubtedly entrusted with the director's infinite warmth.
As a clone of Ayanami, it has been injected with more human life experience.
Cat under the train .
Infant baby .
Follow the farmer’s wife to plant seedlings and soak in hot springs, which makes her feel fresh and interesting.
Asuka, with extreme temperament, is still the same.
I am muddled all day long, scolding Shinji from time to time.
Wearing a DSS neck ring on her neck, she is burdened with pain and pressure that ordinary people cannot understand.
The battle scenes in the new theater version are undoubtedly more gorgeous.
Katsuragi Misato led WILLE and Ikogendo led NERV for the ultimate duel.
As a scheming "conspirator", Commander Ikoji is clearly superior.
In order to destroy Unit 13, Asuka injected "Apostle Blood" in order to complete the final blow.
But at the moment of death, she suddenly saw her "prototype".
It turns out that Commander Ikari has long abandoned humanity.
He decided to use the method of offering Asuka to initiate deification and complete the "Human Completion Plan".
At the critical moment, Ikari Shinji stepped forward.
Although everyone resisted, Misato Katsuragi was still willing to believe in Shinji.
After that, Shinji and his father, Ikaki Gendo, drove each to a duel.
What is strange is that not only do they have the same actions. The pace of
is exactly the same.
here,The father and son have been abstracted as a conflict between two ideas.
first phone symbolizes hope , and phone 13 symbolizes despair .
Longinus is the "spear of despair" , and Cassius is the "spear of hope" .
After a fight, Shinji pierced the illusion and successfully "killed his father".
After being frank with each other, the father and son achieved true spiritual reconciliation.
In the final ending, Shinji bids farewell to many important characters.
Facing Asuka, he said the phrase "I like you too" .
Facing Ayanami, he said his wish.
26 years later,Riman's work "EVA" ended perfectly.
Ikoji Shinji, a decadent teenager, has finally grown up.
Director Hideaki Anno might not have expected it-
This somewhat "pathological" work has accompanied the youth of countless people and left an indelible mark on their hearts.
Although the animation is over, we still have to return to real life outside the screen.
May you and I still have the courage not to escape the world.
is just like the TV version theme song sings——
"The beautiful angel summons you from afar, brave young man, go and create miracles!"
