Is it truly so impossible to make a continuation to End of Evangelion that it was never attempted?

>>282957576 (OP)
It was a completed story. There is no more.

They literally made 4 sequel movies.

>>282957576 (OP)
It's called END OF Evaneglion. Not only can yo NOT make a continuation you shouldn't

ANIMA

>>282957693
>sequel

>>282957693
They were sequels in spirit, but not a direct continuation of the story
They were evidently trying to work something out with the time loop stuff, but by 3.33 they had all but dropped that plot point, and now any narrative link between the rebuilds and EoE is nothing but fan speculation

>>282957737
sort of, but the most important part of ANIMA is that the defining event of EoE, third impact, did NOT happen

>>282957576 (OP)
There were lots of fanfics and doujins which tackled it in their own way. But Anno had no interest in an official continuation. Putting that aside, any continuation story would be very different from the show. It would have to be a survival/slice of life/romance story, with essentially no other elements. Fairly different appeal.

Tl;dr go digging through old Eva fanfic archives or read Re-Take, there's a lot good there.

>>282957863
Honestly, when you get over the fanservicey stuff and the (then) novel concept of time-travel-fix-it, RE-Take is not a good story

>>282957724
You could, but you wouldn't have the titular robots in it
It would be weird

>>282957949
There's a lot of OOC(out of character) moments but I remember it being a touching read. I'd even say it progresses thematically in a way the Rebuilds, and especially 4.0 does not.

Essentially, the entire story of Re-Take is about Shinji earning his romance with Asuka. There is no Mari that just falls from the sky.

asushin faggots are all secondaries

>>282960526
evangelion secondaries are the ones who circlejerk about the show being anti-escapism and anti-otaku

>>282960625
asushin faggots are the leading force behind those claims.

>>282960649
not really
a true secondary would tell you how Asuka is le toxic and how it's good that they didn't get together

>>282960686
>n-not re-
>the constant claims about how eoe is about shinji reject rei/kaworu/instrumentality in favor of asuka because she's "reality" because anti-escapism
Silence secondary.

>>282960736
>the constant claims about how eoe is about shinji reject rei/kaworu/instrumentality in favor of asuka because she's "reality"
It's more that Shinji rejects instrumentality because he wants to live
In the sea of LCL, according to Rei, there is no pain, but also no joy, making it akin to death
Asuka is just there to show that in choosing life, Shinji also choose to exist around things that bring him pain

>>282957610
Then why revive the series years later to make a bunch of movies?

>>282957724
>when the fantasy is final

>>282962501
I thought it was called that because the original game was the company's swansong

>>282957576 (OP)
What is there to continue? That's the end. There's nothing after the end.

>>282957576 (OP)
The Rebuild movies are a sequel to End of Evangelion

>>282963560
How?

kek shippercucks are still coping

>>282963422
Isn't that contrary to the very message of the movie?

>>282963440
But then why are Mari figures massively losing their worth in the second hand market while Khara brings back the NGE versions of the characters for marketing and merchandising?

>>282959043
Not that big of a deal
An AU where Shinji, Rei, Asuka and Kaworu manage a coffee shop would be more recognizably evangelion than a gundam style new show with evangelions but none of the titular cast

>>282957576 (OP)
the fuck are you gonna show, Asuka bouncing on it for 90 minutes?

>>282957576 (OP)
Here's your continuation.

>>282966942
This sucks

>>282957576 (OP)
It is.

So why did they made the "curse of Eva" thing and why was the old woman trying to fuck him

>>282957949
it's clumsy and amateur (duh) but you can see the passion that went into making it, and people respond to that even if they don't consciously notice it
the soundtrack is nice

>>282967370
To sell figures of the teenage versions of the girls even after a timeskip

>>282967307
that's not the kind asuka wears though
