>>279906636 (OP) It is bleak sure, since it portrays the constant failure of human beings to connect with each others. But certainly 'not' the most bleak. There are several hints of hope in the end.

>>279906689 >not bleak Third Impact stopped halfway, we don't know how many years passed since it happened, only Asuka and Shinji came back but they don't have nothing to eat and basically all is destroyed around them, also the sea is dead
>>279908148 Yeah, I don't get this "they can just come back" handwave. People coming back piecemeal to a deserted world are mostly going to starve to death before there's a critical mass of skills in one place to reboot civilization. Can they re-liquefy if they want to live?
>>279906689 Even if they come back, the entire humanity is no longer the same. Every single human on Earth has become a part of one shared consciousness and you think people will just go back to their regular lives after experiencing this complete mindfuck? >Oh boy that was one heck of rollercoaster! >Anyway, back to the rice fields I go
>>279909507 >On that day, three thousand and seven hundred years ago, humanity was turned to goo.

>>279907845 Oh yeah I remember now. So it would be more of a reincarnation rather than them coming back as they were? Do they all have a hivemind? What if some want to come back and others dont?
>>279912280 >>279912053 >>279912260 Heads up everyone. The Kensuke cuck is having a melty right now amd once again spamming every Eva thread thats up. Make sure to post Asushin to make him seethe
for me personally its this, generally one of the best endings and conclusions ive ever seen. Gets only topped by midnight cowboy in its bleakness, but its not an anime so disregard it
>>279906636 (OP) eva is really the ultimate litmus test to see if anime fans consume any actual media. like why are you reading such a surreal metaphorical film so literally? yeah sure the world ended but that's just what being alive feels like sometimes. in the end shinji choose to live and to keep trying to make connections with others and that's what matters

How does it feel inside the LCL tang? Is it comfy? What are your thoughts like, do you lack an ego and memories?
>>279906636 (OP) That's not even that bleak in the scheme of things. If you want pure, black bleakness and nihilism, go watch Texhnolyze. Any hope you think you had will be crushed and torn into pieces.
