The Evangelion Manga Was Weird...

Фильм және анимация

Neon Genesis Evangelion is one of my favorite franchises of all time. The series was praised for its compelling themes and abstract storytelling (as well as its controversial endings) upon its release. Evangelion, especially, is an otherworldly franchise in Japan and has licensed merchandise for just about any household object. Along with its success, also came various manga spinoffs. Some were amazing and others... not so much.

    The Shinji hate is strong on this one, sometimes I feel like I'm the only one who doesn't hate on him and actually try to understand where he's coming from and why he acts the way he usually does unlike most of the vocal majority seems to. Like seriously do people seriously not realize being Shinji is suffering? And unlike most mechas, using the EVAs actually hurt you when damaged and if your robot happens to lose a limb like Unit 01 did during the flashback fight in Ep 2, guess what's going to happen to you? You're going to feel ALL OF THAT, still want to get in the robot now?

    @@TheNestPossesed Yeah that was a weird direction they took Shinji and I won't defend that little incident. But tbf End of Evangelion in general has multiple things that are questionable, such as Misato insinuating she was gonna sleep with Shinji even though she's a grown woman and he's a young high school boy. Even if she didn't really mean it (especially since she was dying at the time) it was still a weird thing that happened and I'm personally not okay with it.

    Idk, shinji used to be hated a lot back in 2000s and early 2010s but nowadays i feel like most people defend him and excuse his actions by saying he is realistic and whatnot (i like his character too btw don't get me wrong, i would defend him when necessary as well). The last rebuild also redeemed him in many people's eyes by making him become a hero that saves everyone. I think asuka is the one that is hated way more unlike shinji most people won't even try to understand her actions and will say she is a bad person. And tbf the last 2 rebuilds didn't do her any favor in that regard. Even as someone who likes asuka's character she was extremely annoying in those last 2 movies and her actions are unjustifiable. She is supposed to be "mentally 28" yet she acts anything but. Holding onto a resentment for a 14 year old boy for 14 years is just so immature. People always say she is abusive and i used to disagree with them because near all of her so called "abuse" scenes were literally slapstick comedy but in the last movie she genuinely was straight up physically abusive, maybe for the first time in the whole series. That is why i prefer her OG series/EoE and manga version. Rebuild asuka is a parody of her character and basically all her positive traits were put into mari because of splitting one character into two. Shikinami is what happens if all you take from soryu is her angry side while putting the cheerful and funny parts into mari. In a way asuka soryu is a deconstruction of manic pixie dream girl trope. A quirky and energetic girl that as soon as she comes makes the tone of the series happier and more lighthearted and in a way kind of pulls the shy introverted MC out of his shell with her extroverted personality (in the early episodes like in 8 9 and 10 they slowly learn to get along, yet all of that comes tumbling down in the later episodes). In actuality though all of that is just a façade and she is just as broken and depressed if not more than the MC, which is why she can't really help him either. She is no "dream" girl. This applies to all the characters really, none of them can help each other because they all have to deal with their own issues. Yet the rebuilds misses this point with the character of mari who is basically what asuka soryu was trying to subvert. A quirky and perfect girl with no flaws (literal mary sue) who helps the MC and is on his side till the end. Yup, a manic pixie dream girl. The last part i said applies to most things in rebuilds honestly. Most of the things the OG series was trying to subvert rebuilds do in a straight way. For example, OG series used "fanservice" in clever ways by making it relevant to shinji's character and show how he is a hormonal teen. All of that build up and finally in EoE it shows how those supressed emotions come out when he is at his lowest and is given freedom to those things. He gives into his urges. His "id" in a way. Instead of asuka's nudity being something titil lating for the audience it is disturbing. That is how it subverts fanservice in a way. The rebuilds on the other hand completely miss this and just put random btt shots for the sole reason of the enjoyment of the audience. Like how in the last film the camera focuses on asuka's crtch for no reason or the hilarious btt shot of sakura in a scene that is supposed to be serious etc. Sorry for the rambling, just wanted to share some of my thoughts and why i feel like rebuilds miss the point of the OG series in a lot of ways.

    @@HectorCotto97 Oh and one more thing, misato suggests sx to comfort shinji after rei 2's death in episode 23 too so it doesn't come out of nowhere in EoE. Most things that happen in EoE are just pay offs of things that happened in the series. Misato's biggest flaw is, the only way she knows how to help people is by using her sxuality. Because she herself uses hedonistic pleasures like drinking and sx as a way of coping. Also it's weird that people complain so much about some of misato's actions towards shinji to the point some even call her the word that starts with the letter "g" and rhymes with broomer yet nearly everyone overlooks the relationship between mari and shinji in the last rebuild movie. Some even saying it was the healthiest relationship in the series. If you see their relarionship as romantic (which the movie kind of hints at) then that becomes extremely creepy. At least misato wasn't seriously interested in shinji. She was just trying to help and encourage him in her own ways, as wrong as it is.

    what i love about the original manga is that it feels like each character’s defining traits were shifted just ever so slightly, and all of those shifts had natural impacts on the story that were followed into different events. Shinji’s slightly more confident and less desperate/unsure of himself. my favorite moment that defines this is when he asks if rei is straight up a robot. thats what any normal person would think when meeting her and it stems from the fact that this man isn’t solely thinking like an eva fan. misatos more caring, rei is more human, asuka is less dense and stubborn. but all of these changes are very small, which makes it a very interesting story to read after watching eva from the perspective of someone who loves breaking down writing

    I loved the manga really appreciated the time the author took to establish parental roles for Misato and Kaji. I loved the entire ending. And that last panel misted me up something fierce. I prefer the manga over the show because despite the show having more interpretive meat on its bones I just can't find enjoyment in it. It's been dissected and analyzed to death to the point where I can't distance myself from the discourse surrounding it and just watch it as a peirce of entertainment. The manga remains entertaining throughout while also giving you food for thought and a positive perspective on identity and humanity.

Shinji and Kawrou do the making out in space thing at the very end, like what happened with Madoka and Homura in Madoka Magica. There’s plots to steal people’s energy with computers too, which is also straight out of sailor moon. Personally I’m mad Shinji only got a gun and no transformation sequence. We were robbed.

    episode 4 is one of my favorites from the anime, and the scene where misato and shinji stare at each other across the train tracks for nearly a full minute as an announcement including the phrase "those with small children please keep an eye on them" plays out of the station speakers is a big part of why. it's such a great bit of visual storytelling-we don't need to hear misato say the words "i desperately want to have a family and be a good caregiver" in that scene for us to understand everything about her in that moment. the scene probably wouldn't have translated super well to manga because it's not a fundamentally time-based medium like anime is, so it makes sense that the author took a more straightforward expositional approach, but all of those same sentiments are absolutely there in the anime

    The other thing I liked better about Asuka's introduction in the Manga is that it's stated that on the way there, she's single-handedly defeated the Angel attacking the fleet. Usually I'm a fan of show don't tell, and it would have been better if we could've seen this battle in the Manga, but it still provides evidence that Asuka is actually good at her job. In the anime, she gets her shit rocked in every battle apart from a couple times working together with Shinji and her battle with the MPEs. Even though the viewer is led to believe that she's a prodigy and probably should be the best pilot out of the three, it's rare to see any actual evidence of that. It's a small addition, but I think having her solo an Angel is a much-needed addition to her character and justifies her higher-than-thou additude.

    Actually as someone who didn’t know anything and jumped head first into the ova and movies I was blown away. I actually felt like I understood everything. It was weird how relatable Shinji really felt bc I’ve felt a lot of those things too and dealt with similar problems. “Obv not going into a fucking humanoid robot over 200 ft tall and shit” but just in general a lot of real life problems similar to that. I never hated any of the characters, they where all understandable and I’ve felt every single one of those emotions. Even when the story tried to get trippy with its visuals and stuff it still makes sense just buy listening to it. To me it seems as if the OVA and movies are about growing up, maturing, finding your place in life, trying to find happiness in day to day living, looking for meaning, finding value in yourself rather than looking to others for it, expecting nothing from anyone or anything except through yourself, and etc. they’re where a lot of main themes in the ova that honesty all ring true but come together in a beautiful way and bring a lot of prospectives to the table. Don’t know what the manga is like but I guess I’m about to find out some of it.

    I started reading the manga before I ever watched the show, was quite young, probably around 12 or so. I absolutely loved the story, art-style, sci-fi action & characters. Then once the volumes stoped coming out I actually caught up on the series and the movies. Over the years I continued getting the volumes as they came out, took a break at some point because I wasn’t up to date, until I then finally got the last few volumes a few years back when I realized the series was actually complete. Obviously the show and companion movies are great, but I will for ever prefer the Manga. It had a huge impact on me in various ways and has basically accompanied me from childhood, through my teen-age years to adulthood. If you are a fan of Sadamoto’s work I would highly recommend the art-book “Der Mond” featuring a bunch of his colored Evangelion illustrations as well as some further unrelated illustrations that are also absolutely stunning!

    I thought the manga was better up until End of Evangelion territory where shit kind of goes downhill, since Gendo comes off as a cartoonishly bad dude with his funny matrix forcefield powers. I also only think I liked it as much as I did because I read it so soon after I finished the anime that I didn't really notice the stuff that was missing and homogenized it into one thing in my brain. I almost wish that we could have an Eva remake only based on the manga, not to replace the original or anything, but to highlight what makes the manga so different.

    While it may be a work of fan fiction, and involve some hentai elements but hear me out, the Evangelion Re:Take manga's are fantastic. They write a new ending across 5 volumes that starts right where End Of Evangelion leaves off. Some of the most faithful fan art I've ever seen and it still hits upon each characters main themes all while having a satisfying ending to the series. For those worried about the hentai elements you can pretty much skip all that as it doesn't play too much into the story and only takes up about 40 pages in total across the entire 5 volumes. It's a fantastic read

    I read the Manga like 17 or 18 years ago and watched the anime for the first time about 10 years later - This is one of the few instances where indeed watching the anime first is the right choice imo. Without taking the time to compare the two releases or even rereading the manga once over the time, I was slightly annoyed by Shinjis behaviour and the fact that everything feels 20% more confusing. Also watching the anime should be much easier/cheaper today than geting a copy of the manga.

He didn’t decide while the two were staring at each other. He had already decided. That’s why the scene holds on them so long. It’s about misato realising shinji decided for himself, and shinji getting confirmation that misato did want him to stay afterall

    Recently watched all of the NGE series and the movies, I can’t help but feel bad for shinji. He was just a very lonely kid in a chaotic world where he had to defend the world when the world didn’t even know he existed. Remember you have to put yourself in someone’s shoes to see where they are coming from. I get it he SA Asuka but he didn’t know any better, he had no parental figures his entire life and everyone around him had their own problems and priorities. Shinji was depressed and lonely yet no one seemed to care. Misato pretty much hinted sxeual favors for him throughout every version of evangelion. Asuka confused his emotions by acting like he had a chance with her. His dad was a piece of shit who ignored his own son bc he wanted his wife back, his own dad didn’t even realize a piece of his wife is within his son. Shinji had to get into a giant mech and also defended the ENTIRE PLANET AND THE HUMAN RACE. Hate shinji all you want but he didn’t deserve the life he was given he was just a lonely curious boy. I am not justifying his actions he just had no one in his life to point him in the right direction. In the end he made his own choice and decided to stay and suffer, bro took suffering to the literal extent and even then he was treated like trash. Almost no one in NGE is a good person, it’s called life. Everyone wants to be a good person but it’s hard to be a good person when you can cheat, steal, lie, deceive, and most of all be selfish. Again I’m not saying what shinji did was ok he was literally a lost child forced to fight angels trying to kill everyone. That one scene where Shinji is just sitting inside the mech and his brain is being flooded by horrible memories of his entire life…I connected so hard to that one scene and it made me so sad in real life that I wondered how sad and bad shinji must have felt. He must feel horrible and confused as to why he has to suffer so much when all he wants to do is chill and not fight angels in a mech with his moms soul in it. The closest anyone came close to being a good person was Asuka in my opinion. I hated her attitude but in the end when she went out fighting all the angels I instantly changed my hate to love, she gave everything she could to save the world but she got killed simply trying to do something right. Idk im just rambling but hopefully someone can agree with me
