It's back...
That which dwells in your nightmares...
PSYK'S ANIME REVIEW!
TARGET: END OF EVANGELION.
WARNING! SPOILERS ABOUND.
Right, here's the run-down
- Shinji, when we said "grow a pair," we meant figuratively. WE DIDN'T NEED TO WATCH YOU JACK OFF TO ASUKA! *bitchslap*
- Asuka, didn't know you needed your mommy to fight.
- Why the FUCK give Shinji the choice as to the fate of the world? Still, given a choice between Gendo and Shinji, it's a pretty easy decision...
- We ALL KNEW MAYA WANTED RITSUKO. We didn't need her death - er, instrumentalization thingy - to figure it out!
- So, can we call Asuka the One Eyed Trouser Snake now? :P
Right, I fucking LOVED every single thing Misato did, right until the end. I never knew she was such a badass until she saved Shinji from the three armed guards. And the whole verbal shit-kicking that she gave Shinji was awesome. Just wish she'd pistol-whipped him a couple times to knock some sense into him.
If at all possible, this movie lowered my opinion of Shinji below where it was. He jerks off over seeing Asuka naked, then goes and feels sorry for himself as usual. His stupidity gets EVA 02 destroyed, Asuka maimed, and Misato killed. The only thing that keeps me from going on a huge tirade of how much Shinji sucks (his dumbassery even got the Third Impact going damnit!) is that, at the very end, he managed to come to his senses enough to cut off the Impact right before it finished. Course, the rest of the world was kinda DEAD, but that's beside the point.
Gendo, I refuse to believe you have a heart. I don't care that you did it all for your wife, I don't give a fuck, as far as I'm concerned you're still a heartless manipulative dick. But you were GOOD at being that, damnit!
Ritsuko, nice plan to stop Gendo.Too bad you failed when it mattered.
Rei, +1 bonus points for the final "Fuck you" to Gendo, man. Seriously. But then minus half a point for giving the decision of the world's fate to SHINJI.
Asuka, tearing down 9 (okay, maybe just 8) EVAs in a mere 5 minutes? Awesome. ALmost going berserker? Even more awesome. Surviving nine fucking Lances of Longinus, replicas or not? God.
Kaworu, GTFO. You're DEAD.
Fuyutsukei or whatever Gendo's second in command was named, fuck you. You knew Gendo's plan all along, didn'tcha? Dick.
SEELE..."Another one bites the dust" should be playing right about now.
And EVA 001...why let yourself be piloted by such a total douche?
Overall, there was a nice mix of the psychological stuff and fighting (sorry, the scene with the nine EVAs flying over Shinji, holding parts of Unit 02 in their jaws? Fucking priceless), and of course the many bewb scenes for those who enjoy that sort of thing.
I give End of Evangelion a solid 9.5/10.
END OF SPOILERS.
