After years I finally watched the rebuilds and they fucking suck, the ending feels so cynical. Like Anno just made more NGE for the money but everyone expected some profound psychedelic finale so he just slapped some bullshit together

The whole survivors village section was kino, that section and the whole remake series is very rei-centric but it has no payoff at all, Shinji just sends off Rei I to a better world at the end like everyone else. In NGE she has a complete arc despite the story having less focus on her

The 2nd movie is like a self insert rom com where Rei and Asuka are competing for Shinjis affections, the rebuilds are a way more indulgent fantasy topped off with Shinji getting a big titty manic pixie dream girl gf that isn’t developed at all and just loves him for literally no reason, yet it’s trying to make the same point as EoE about escapism while indulging in it completely and having Shinji literally send everyone off to an ideal world which is what he rejected EoE. Shinji doesn’t need to embrace the pains of intimacy because a perfect girl literally falls on him out of the sky, so I wonder why they even bothered including the hedgehogs dillema scene a second time

Maybe these movies are a white pill because it shows how Anno has grown from a tortured schizoid making a masterpiece to a stable adult making slop to keep his friends employed or something, he was like Shinji and now he’s like a Gendo who never lost Yui. but these movies still sucked ass.

They look ugly as sin too especially the CGI

It's going meta pretending to be like those old man-in-suit monster movies. The next shot shows it's all a soundstage and they break past that too.
It's up it's own ass, yes, but the building effects being shitty were intentional.

There aren’t really
There’s the original series + finale movie from the 90’s, and the shitty remake movie series.

The last episode of the original series and its finale movie are technically different endings but not really. The last episode takes place inside the characters psyche while the movie shows what really happened, people say they’re different canons but they barely are and you should just watch both while ignoring the remakes

Greed. Watch the original. Not the netflix one, the OG english dub or that remastered 5.1 audio torrent that was floating around. If you give a shit.
Here is a beautiful 7.1 rip with the japanese audio.

Rebuilds are CGI capeslop designed for western audiences. EoE is moronslop designed for retards who need everything explained to them. The true intellectual's ending (and the only one that makes sense contextually) is the original TV series. There's nothing Eva worth watching outside of the original 26 episodes and Eva:ReDeath.

I made the thread I don’t think the rebuilds are even on Netflix, and I agree you should just torrent the original series since Netflix wouldn’t fork out the cash for the rights to use Fly me to the moon as the ending song. It seems like a small thing but it changes the whole vibe and that song has thematic importance

1st movie is basically a shot for shot remake of the first 6 episodes of the show
2nd movie tries to cover episodes 9-18 but again lots of stuff is cut
3rd and 4th movie doesn't even bother adapting the rest of the show, its entirely new bullshit

It’s a different story, only the first movie is really a remake, the second has a lot of changes then the story completely diverges (into slop), there’s a 14 year time jump and the entire 3rd movie is just Shinji and Kowaru being gay in the same 3 rooms

Original series with the final two episodes taking place inside main character's head, while the film "The End of Evangelion" is what actually happened. End is 10/10, and try to go in without spoilers. It's batshit insane in the best way possible.

Years later, Anno then made the "Rebuild of Evangelion films", which start as a higher production remake series, but quickly become a sequel series by the end of the second film. They could be a bithit/miss, albeit on the whole they are great, the third filters retards, and the fourth film being a near-perfect wrap of the entire series (original + rebuild), especially the climax.

If it means anything, I generally do not like anime, yet enjoyed the entire ride.
Really great trailer for EoE

I think this is justified thematically since everyone around Shinji grew up while he never did, but it’s still trite and just a more heavy handed version of the original, has no actual plot justification and really doesn’t need to apply to anyone other than Shinji for any reason other than more 14 year old ass shots

Terrible post.
EoE is the pinnacle of Evangelion and possibly one of the most important animated movies ever made by man.
It's ok liking ep 26, but claiming it's better than Eoe is contrarian autism at its finest, and 99% of the tome it's just a lie that people like to tell others to look cool.

EoE and ep 25/26 compliment each other. We see the third impact play out inside Shinjis psyche in the show then what actually happened in the movie, they’re framed as alternate endings but I think they’re just alternate perspectives of the same ending. EoE is definitely better

It's a better world, not a perfect world, it's more mundane and their old connections and memories are gone, it's basically personality death but still a new world remains with new life in it, new positive things, new bad things. Anno's message is that change, while abject in one sense, is beneficent with regards to trauma. Read up on his relationship with his dad, people say Evangelion is about depression but it's not, it's about trauma specifically.

Its just a shitty movie filled with plotholes, retcons and retarded scenes.
While Evangelion was a s-f series it still had some logic to it. Rebuilds seem completely random and you have two 80yo grampas build evnagelions, robots that before took cooperative effort of entire planet to create, Time skip makes no sense, nothing makes any sense, just to have a shitty 3deep5 you ending ... that also makes no sense no matter how much you dig.

also permanently unaging teenagers would totally stay single, not get married and have kids, since ... plot has to happen

it makes no sense lore wise, but also dosnt matter to the story, even as a commentary on the fanbase it really goes nowhere as it dosnt seem to have any relevance
in the end you are left wondering "why bother", why fuck everything up

correct opinion. I prefer to think of the Rebuilds as an alt-universe to sate the desires of those, like me, who always wanted MORE Evangelion. I got what i wanted, the third film shat me off the first time watching, intentionally leaving you in the dark about whats going on for the majority of the film was cheap and infuriating, but otherwise i loved them.

You'll get a lot of false answers because the early 00s yank fandom were very autistic and paternalistic old-school nerds who made a bunch of disinfo, rumours and half-truths accepted fact by repeating them enough times.

The simplest and more correct answer I can give is:

-Original TV series of 26 episodes, Neon Genesis Evangelion
-They didn't get to do quite what they were planning with the ending due to the production running behind schedule so as soon as the show proved to be popular enough, they pushed to get a theatrical project greenlit that would replace the ending of the show, Revival Of Evangelion, consisting of 2 movies
-Originally this would have contained some ideas that would later be used in the Rebuilds, but things ran behind schedule again and the project was reduced to 1 movie consisting of an hour-long recap clipshow with new addition scenes taking place at the time of episodes 21-24 of the original series, plus totally new alternate episodes 25 and 26 that take some ideas from the original TV ending and expand them
-The clipshow is called Evangelion: Death, originally packaged with a preview of alternate episode 25 called Evangelion:Rebirth, released as a preview for the finished project to apologies for delays as Evangelion:Death&Rebirth
-the alternate episodes 25 and 26 were then released together as End Of Evangelion, then the clipshow plus End Of Evangelion released together for a victory lap run as Revival Of Evangelion
-when released on home video, episodes 21-24 were recut with the new scenes from Death slotted in
-these new cuts and the alternate episodes thus replace episodes 21-26 of the original TV series and are denoted with apostrophes, 21', 22', 23' etc.
-so you now have two distinct versions of the show: TV ending (episodes 1-26), and theatrical ending (episodes 1-20 + 21'-26')

-theatrical ending can also be watched as episodes 1-20, 21-24', and then either Revival Of Evangelion or End Of Evangelion, some people prefer the latter if they don't want to watch the 'Death' recap)
-Death is also slightly different in cuts between film, TV broadcast, and home video release, but these are minor editing changes for pacing and such they changed their minds about, not worth getting into here
-series gets cleaned up for home video re-releases some years later marketed as 'Renewal Of Evangelion' with re-done audio, HD mastering, etc.
-skip ahead to the 00s
-Rebuild series, 4 moves titled 1.0, 2.0, etc.
-sorta remake sorta sequel thing the Japanese like to do a lot in the media cause of weird Confucian holdovers where individuals are treated as fungible (see: Patlabor: The Next Generation where each of the new cast are literally just expies of each of the old characters)
-each of these movies received minor effects revisions and such upon home release, so the titles were changed from 1.0 to 1.11, and etc.

-so now you have the original TV series with the original ending episodes 21-26, the TV series with the theatrical ending 21'-26', and the Rebuild series which I suppose technically follows on from the theatrical ending version though it's possibly made purposefully woolly, been a while since I've seen them since yeah, the writing becomes basic-bitch trash, although I like Anno's intention and messaging in them overall and am sympathetic to his aims.

These are all called different things in the West vs. Japan btw:

It’s a happy song about the joys of intimacy that plays out each episode of a show with a cold and harsh tone about the pains of intimacy.
>it’s just an ending song for fucks sake
Ending songs are important, it’s the final thing you hear and decides the feeling you’re left with. Imagine if Breaking Bad ended with some random track from the OST instead of baby blue when it cuts to black, the tone of the ending changes completely

-Neon Genesis Evangelion (West) = Gospel/Evangelion Of The New Century (Japan)
-Death&Rebirth/End Of Evangelion (West) = Gospel/Evangelion Of The New Century: Theatrical Edition (Japan) (Revival wasn't released as one thing in the West til the recent blu-ray boxsets)
-episodes 21'-26' as recut for home video I think are called the 'Director's Cuts' in the West and I think 'Home Production Cuts' in Japan but can't remember for certain
-Renewal Of Evangelion I think is the same in both
-Rebuild Of Evangelion (West) = Evangelion: New Theatrical Edition (Japan)

If you want to catch everything, watch:
Episodes 1-26, take it as its own thing, then episodes 21'-24 and Revival Of Evangelion, with the understanding it's a 'different take', then Rebuild 1.11, 2.22, 3.333, and then 3.0+1.0's home edition, if it has one I forget what the number is but it's probably 3.0+1.11 or something like that

Finally:

No, the TV ending and the theatrical ending of the original series are not the same events inside/outside of Shinji's mind, and I don't think it's any use to talk or think about it in terms of any in-universe explanation or theory. It's purely Anno being creatively indecisive, deciding the ideas and themes he wanted to express weren't settled, and revising the ending of the show a couple of years after it aired. The continuity of events between the two lines up partially, not entirely, but neither are the two endings opposites of each other, they're just slightly different takes on the same creative ideas.

And no, they didn't run out of budget doing the TV series, they ran out of time, because Anno was hitting burnout in mid-adulthood from untreated PTSD from a physically abusive childhood that meeting a normal wife who gave him something reliable and stable in his life he wasn't used to having helped smooth over, which is why he presents a normie healthy relationship between people who were strangers before they dated as this groundbreaking revolutionary thing that fixes your problems.

The early yank fandom + typical 90s childlike/paternalistic dub/translation by ADV (and later streamslop translation by Netflix that is more literally accurate but loses the character of the show and like the ADV translation, fails to adequately articulate the psychology of what's going on) really did a number on how the show and its production/release are understood, Evangelion is a real victim of parasocial nerds trying to twist it to suit their half-understood idea of what it is to them personally. Like the Kaworu+Shinji thing is actually a pretty ugly and cynical example of queerbaiting/fridging by today's standards, portraying the Mishima, Confessions Of A Mask type teen boy experimenting gay shit thing as romantic but ultimately necessarily doomed because it's something boys should grow out of according to Anno's generation, but fujoshis and fags didn't see that or know anything about actual Japanese society/culture and imposed their headcanon of gay stuff that doesn't actually properly happen in the show as the reality of what the characters and the show are. The entire appraisal of the show could do with a serious, ground-up overhaul so I'm planning to undertake a new translation of the whole thing after I finish my translation of Mishima: A Life In Four Chapters in around August. It'll take the next few years of my life but I already promised a few guys I'd chip in and have a go like 3 years ago already and life stuff kept intervening so I'm trying not to leave any more half-finished projects behind me now I've turned 30 like I did all through my early/mid 20s. You'll see it around hopefully when it goes up. For now, the best release to date is Sephirotic's torrent release which is ESL but gets the meaning and tone of the dialogue closest to correct.

he's right, I remember the creators themselves saying that EoE was designed as a different ending to the show, like an alternative, a different path and not the "true" ending, but like how in a video game you might get a different ending depending on the choices you make.
I also remember that Anno was depressed as fuck when making EoE, he burnt out after finishing NGE and it really shows by the time he returned to finish the movie.

Gendo is in control of Instrumentality in the TV ending. Shinji is in control of Instrumentality in the theatrical ending. Misato is shot but doesn't get blown up and the elevator room has a different layout. Shinji's internal journey in the TV ending is entirely about his self-loathing and the Instrumentality mythos is ignored, all that's offered is an examination of Shinji accepting the possibilities of change and his self-loathing not being the centre of his being. In the theatrical ending Shinji's internal journey is about how the real world really is a harsh fucked-up place with only glimmers of happiness, but we choose to experience it anyway because attempting to find an escape in non-existence or non-human existence is a false economy since you aren't you anymore to experience your release from suffering there. If you actually understand what's being said and look at little discrepancies in the mythos and the concept of what Instrumentality is between the two, it's clear they aren't actually following the same continuity, they're just not in direct opposition to each other. Theatrical ending is a higher-budget and minor-to-moderate revision of the TV ending, not the same continuity told in parallel. Treat your zoomer ADHD and stop trusting accepted fan-canon and actually dive deep into analysis and try to find original sources for the idea the two endings are the same continuity and you'll come to the same conclusion I did. There's just a lot of fluff by innocent but incorrect fans running their mouths back in the day that has been repeated so often and seems believable enough at first glance most people who got into the show after, say 2005, don't question it.

Oh and another notable example of this, if you think I'm huffing my own farts here, is the letters in End Of Evangelion. Everyone tells the same story that the letters that flash up on the screen are 'real hate mail' sent to Gainax about the TV ending, but if you actually read and translate the letters that are shown, they're mostly letters of praise mixed in with just one or two hate letters. The Gainax building also did get graffitied in real life by a pissed-off fan, that much is true. But the letters are mostly gushing praise - and I believe they were either all fakes written by Gainax staff, or were real letters but re-typed by Gainax staff to disguise the peoples' handwriting, can't remember which. The point being made with them is to do with the world outside oneself and the versions of you in other peoples' heads, you only exist as you exist within your context, etc. that kind of thing. It's not some screed against the fans, End Of Evangelion more broadly isn't a screed against the fans and never was. Anno was an otaku himself, it's more a heartfelt warning to his fellow nerds not to get drawn *too* deep into nerd culture escapism, not that it's a totally evil thing that should be ditched entirely. He just feels using media to escape real-life issues is a false economy, but it can still be okay just for good fun, the man likes making movies about Ultraman and shit after all. Later on with the Rebuilds he goes full "GIVE UP ON EVANGELION, MOVE ON ALREADY" because he's aghast people have not gotten the message and were spending their lives talking about the same series on forums etc., especially the original fans from the time of the show's initial run, rather than treading a middle-way path like he suggested, as well as probably being frustrated at himself for getting stuck in production hell trying to finish the Rebuilds in his own life when he wants to do, again, Shin Ultraman and shit like that.

They're congratulating Shinji's personal journey, you're reading shit back onto the TV ending based on the theatrical ending which was developed in-depth *after* the TV ending had already aired. (Yes, Episode 25 was always intended to be the Geofront getting invaded - by the UN army originally, not the JSSDF - but Episode 26 was meant to be some totally different shit, I think involving loredumping about the Great Ancestral Race stuff which instead got demoted to a video game easter egg.) You're retconning what the imagery of the TV ending means based on something that didn't exist at the time.

Pretty sure Shinji has direct control of the outcome in EoE. In the TV ending, Gendo is the one who explains what Instrumentality is after it begins, and he seems happy with the direction it's going as opposed to freaking out because Rei betrayed him in End Of Evangelion. I know the parallel-stories theory is appealing, it's why it stuck for a long time, but it does not check out upon attentive watching.

As spotty as the execution was, I sorta like the idea that Rebuild was canonically a sequel, and was only a "reboot" literally within its own canon universe because of the whole Instrumentality godhood thing

To the viewer it's actually a single timeline where Shinji fucked up all of existence because he's such a retarded fag who sucks at everything, but at least he became powerful enough that he could send himself back/jumpstart the entire universe to try again and fuck up all over again in a similar but distinct way.

Groundhog Day that shit.

Also isn't that what the ending implies, Shinji achieved godhood all over again and his final decision to fix everything and save everybody was just to go "Fuck it, NONE of this ever happened"

The sequels add and say nothing that the original series and End of Eva didn't do better. Gendo confesses everything about how similar he is to Shinji in one line in End of Eva, nothing is gained by going into more detail and making it into a ten minute flashback because the detail doesn't put any unexpected spin on what you'd infer and expect from his original confession. Its not new information, its just filler. Its doesn't add anything artistically and just waters things down and makes them less elegant.

The one slightly new thing it could have done to expand past the original is modelling "life past the epiphany". Past the kind of realization that you want to live and engage with the world and others he has at the end of the original series, and showing that your life doesn't get easy at that point and your newfound hope and willingness to suffer will be tested and will have to hold up to the weight of the consequences of your proactive decisions that you can't deflect or reject responsibility for. They almost start to do this at the end of the second movie. Shinji has an early impulse to become proactive and try and take control of his life and aborts this whole cosmic happening to save Rei, then in the beginning of 3 everyone hates him and he's fucked the whole world. The world isn't rolling over for him after he decides to "pull himself together", he needs to decide what to do in the face of serious adversity after that-can he keep that ball rolling and not regress. But very quickly the third movie becomes absolutely schitzophrenic and both narratively and thematically incoherent and that carries over into the fourth. Schizophrenic and incoherent when they do something new, trite and redundant, shallow mimicry of the original when they are at least vaguely thematically coherent.

There is absolutely nothing the movies could've done or shown that could represent that idea as well and as memorably as EoE did in 5 minutes of mostly silence and only one perfectly written and performed line.

You're wasting your time looking for something in the movies that isn't there.

I've loved Evangelion for years. The og series + EoE had maybe the biggest impact on me of any show or movie ever. I will NEVER watch these dogshit movies. Everything I see about them pisses me off. The cgi looks awful, the regular animation looks awful. EoE was the perfect ending, and I won't pretend like these movies change that.

Originally she was just a body to shove in 02 at the end of the movie. Asuka is the one who pilots 03, then winds up in a coma, so someone else needed to do it. They threw around a lot of concepts, like both of them piloting 02, or Mari replacing Asuka entirely, but her increased role in the other movies was entirely due to fan feedback

When adults want to tell adult stories, they use live-action. Why are Citizen Kane and the Godfather not animated? Why would they be? It's a serious, grounded, human story, so it can be told with live-action humans. If the story is worth telling, it can be told in live-action. Animation is an embellishment for children. Animated movies and shows can still tell heartfelt stories, like Prince of Egypt or Batman TAS, but ultimately it's always for children and isn't on the same level as live-action adult-oriented cinema

Each rebuild took so long to come out that Anno was in a completely different state of mind when he made each of them.
>1.0
This one is mostly just an abridged remake.
>2.0
This one is strange, general story beats are the same but some stuff is changed to be more in line with mainstream anime, Shinji is far more proactive and masculine, Rei is quite a bit more human and self-assured, Asuka is a cutesy tsundere rather than a bonafide psycho, all weird sexual elements of Misato (Daddy issues/pedo), Ritsuko (Obsessed with Gendo) and Asuka (In love with Kaji) are removed, even major changes to the narrative, like Asuka being the pilot for the new Eva and the introduction of Mari as a character who actually enjoys this post-apocalyptic world, are made primarily in service of this shift in tone.
>3.0
This one is angry and incoherent, Shinji is endlessly punished for what he did in 2.0 and everyone relapses hard into their original asshole selves, the story flows in a weird way with scenes changing radically in tone and location and the visuals are almost uninteligible, it's like the movie itself is attacking you as you watch it.
>3.0+1.0
This one is more optimistic, the resolution to the story itself is unimportant, the end message is simple: Let go of the past.

I think the rom-com feel of 2 works as a bait and switch with the first half being cheap wish fulfillment for Shinji (and the audience)and the last half having him being brutally punished for it.
You're right about Mari being bullshit though, and it does really cheapen the point the series wants to make about escapism.

OP here I changed my mind I like the movie now, it's been on my mind all day. There's a lot of stuff I don't like about it, but seeing Shinji pick himself up and confront his fears without a world ending epiphany this time + Rei farming rice in the village justifies it's creation. The rebuilds are still incredibly flawed, ugly to look at, and inferior to the orignal, but I like them somewhat

I loved the first two rebuilds but after 3 you could tell that Anno had wrote himself into a corner as he needed to find a way out but at the same time felt he had to top EoE because of its reputation of being an avant garde masterpiece, so I found the 4th rebuild somewhat lacking and a wee bit too try hard esoteric, still enjoyed it though.

Anywho, I will admit that seeing the ending with Shinji and Mari running out of the train station as it transitions to live action makes me cry every time because of the overwhelming sense of relief that they escaped that unrelenting nightmare they were in before......

While the song used couldn't be more perfect....

https://youtu.be/0Uhh62MUEic?si=NS6dkzbXh5GmRtWE

So you can take it two ways, the OG NGE was Anno in a state of depression, and it shows, but by the time he did the rebuilds he was happy which is reflective of the ending of the rebuild and good for him, he earned his happiness as did Shinji....

Evangelion is Anno's attempt at self therapy. Original show ending revealed that's what it was all about all along and fans whined and threatened him, driving the point they missed the message and Anno failed. So he made EoE to reflect this failure. Then a decade later, he said screw that and went back to fix up his shit and if the fans still missed the point, it'd be their problem.

Anno just wanted revenge on what he created, under the guise of ‘finishing’ the original series.

>>212239780
>village
yes and the fact that there were actually people in the city, and people living their lives, and people reacting. It solved some of the two dimensional aspects of the original that would have been exhausting to animate and were inferred.

>2nd movie
Yup.

>CGI
Yeah why bother with CGI if you’re just going to copy/paste a model of the fucking USS Iowa all over the place that was terrifically poor judgement. I found the shift way too jarring though the ideas were functional.

>>212240016
Again, revenge on the audience he created.

>permanently unaging teenagers

Am I the only one that took the “because eva pilot magic” keeping Asuka young to mean “You’ve been gone for years and I am my 29th clone.”

I just assumed they kept Asuka on tap and she had been dying so frequently that she hadn’t really aged. None of her clones survived more than a year of holding the fort with Shinji gone.

>I thought Mari was specifically a spite thing

Literally the case. Mari Sue is just about the worst character in anything, ever. Parachuting into NERV and landing next to the ONLY hope mankind has against the angels, have a chat and then fuckoff to wherever. Your arrival vector comes straight from a battle that humanity lost but ok sure yeah say hi. Oh and you know things about the EVAs that no one else does. You know things about ASUKA’s OWN EVA that she never knew. You are a better pilot than any even though your ass was literally just handed to you .. three days ago? by a single Angel. All of your lines are snark. You don’t have any significant interactions with other characters. You end with some sort of secret agent ending (?!?!) that makes absolutely zero fucking sense, and was not exposed in any way earlier in 20 hours of media.

Yeah great job Anno. Tell me again how this wasn’t a ‘fuck you’ to the fans.

Manga is actually pretty different. Different story beats here and there and the last 3rd of the story is largely different. They built on Shinji and Asuka's relationship alot more so that it feels like there is an actual sorta romance there as opposed to just teenage angst. Shinji isn't a total pussy(although there is something to be said that he isn't a pussy in the show either until he gets unbirthed by unit01) and is pretty badass sometimes, and not a pushover out of the Eva. I can't remember very well but they give Rei a bit more to do as well. The manga is well worth reading if you are a fan of the show, enough things play out differently that it's very enjoyable. It's way better than the rebuilds that for sure

No you see anon, Shinji/Anno isn't escaping the real world. He's escaping the brand of Evangelion, the big anchor around Shinji/Anno's neck of having made NGE, so it's not like escapism at all and is in fact good that he runs away from his masterpiece and destroys it and forgets it ever existed because... because it's how he can be happy! Think of the poor unhappy Anno!

The entirety of 2.22 is wish fulfillment, but the tone does match that same arc of the story in the original series, it just stretched all the way to Zeruel because the Rebuilds skipped some of the Angels. The "good times" ended in the series when Shinji let himself get to cocky, and got sucked into the shadow Angel, and he similarly gets punished in the Rebuilds for getting too cocky, it just comes a bit later.

You're missing the forest for the trees. In the original series, that period of NGE were the "good times" because it was the point when Anno was still making a fun show. In Rebuilds 2 it's structured as a deliberate mockery of the show having a fun section. It's not wish fulfillment, it's wish torture.

I like NGE and the Rebuilds kind of in the way that I like the original Dawn of the Dead and the '04 remake.

The original found me at a time in my life when I couldn't have possibly been more receptive. I was literally a fucked up 14-year-old with daddy issues, and dealing with abuse-related trauma, whose favorite things were kaiju and science fiction, and had just discovered anime. Hell, I even had a weird oedius complex thing going on with my stepmom, who was right around Misato's age, and had a lot of the same mannerisms. I basically was Shinji Ikari. I say all that to say that I have grown up with a huge attachment to the original, and consider it a masterpiece.

That said, I also really like the Rebuilds. It's kind of a Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 situation, where Anno was fully aware that there was no way he was going to match the original, let alone top it, so he didn't even try, and went for something totally different. It leans more into the broader story of the world of Eva, and leaves the bulk of Shinji's internal struggle to the original. It's the one I watch if I just want to watch something more "fun" and direct with those characters.

I never bought the narrative that EoE or the rebuilds are some sort of spiteful revenge by Anno. Only in the west he’s painted as some sort of recluse hermit auteur seething at his man children fans for not getting the point when in reality he’s a rich and sociable otaku who wants to revive the anime industry and make boatloads of money off merchandising. Rejecting a fantasy world and embracing convections with others is a theme of every iteration of Evangelion, but it’s not done to spite the audience

Contrary to rumours online, the original ending of NGE was really well received in Japan, Anno and Gainax just wanted to make a more climactic send off to the series so EoE was made. Same with the rebuilds, because of its finality and how it ends with Shinji literally creating a world without Eva’s people think it’s Anno angrily telling his audience to just let go of NGE and let it die, but he made those movies to revitalise it as a franchise and hand it off to other creators so more Evangelion anime can be made.

Depending on how you look at it you either don’t give Anno enough credit or you give him too much, he’s less of a spiteful auteur seething about his misunderstood work than you think he is but he’s also more of a business motivated hack than you think he is

There's only two "canon" versions as most have already said but you've probably been confused by the absolute deluge of alternative universe spinoff manga and games including ones that are just straight up sitcoms featuring the main cast.

Rei overcomes her subservient nature and defies her master to hand Shinji the reigns of god so he can save the world and overcome his own nature in the process. Rei is the key to the plot and to the themes, Shinji can only have his epiphany because she had hers first

The TV series was never about time loops or whatever the hell, you’re puffing up some off-the-cuff statement Anno made a decade after the fact.
