At first Asuka would sometimes call Rei by her name, but before long she stops saying it entirely — and you realize, oh, she's already starting to put distance between them…
アスカは最初は綾波を名前で呼ぶ事があったけど、程なくして名前呼びは一切しなくなるのがもう距離取り始めてるんだな…ってなる
Misato says it herself: fourteen years ago, if you hadn't boarded Unit-01, we would already have been wiped out.
The old NERV operator crew must have understood. They watched the Near Third Impact live, from the tenth Angel battle onward.
Hyuga even says the Near Third was a result, not his intent.
Sakura and Midori, on the other hand, are ordinary people.
From where they stand, some incomprehensible catastrophe hit them and the cause of it turned out to be Shinji.
After hearing Misato out, Sakura describes him as a benefactor and an enemy at once.
When people run into something they can't digest, maybe hunting for a culprit is just what they do.
You see it happen in real life often enough.
ミサトは、「14年前、あなたがエヴァ初号機に乗らなかったら、私たちはその時、すでに滅んでいた」と言ってます。
旧ネルフオペレーターメンバーは、解っていたのではないでしょうか。第10の使徒戦からニアサーを生で見ていましたから。
日向も「ニアサーは結果だ、彼の意志じゃない」と言っています。
一方で、サクラやミドリは、一般人です。
彼らから見ると、なんだかよくわからない天変地異に見舞われて、その原因がシンジだった、という感じでしょうか。
ミサトの話を聞いてから、「恩人で、仇」だとサクラは表現していました。
自分の中で消化しきれないものにぶつかると、人は戦犯探しをしてしまうものなのかもしれませんね。
実際に、リアルでもそういう場面をよく目にします。
Episodes 7 through 14 are the bright Eva. Shadows start creeping in around 15 to 17, and from episode 18 it becomes hell.
七話〜拾四話くらいは明るいエヴァ
拾伍話〜拾七話あたりから陰りが見え始めて拾八話から地獄になる
If somebody had just explained things properly, Shinji never would have gone off the rails.
The war criminal here is Misato.
そもそも ちゃんと説明すれば
シンジ暴走なくやったろ
戦犯はミサトやん
Which is exactly why the back half — and where The End of Evangelion takes it — hits the way it does……
だからこそ終盤から旧劇の展開がね……
Misato and everyone else swung way too far in one direction.
They could have fed him information a little at a time. What state the world is in, that humanity is nearly gone, that sort of thing.
Also, back when the film came out people kept yelling, hang on, YOU were the one who said Go, Shinji!!
ミサトも、他の面子も極端に振り切れてましたね。
世界がどうなっているとか、人類がほぼ消えてしまったとか、ちょっとずつ情報を出せたかもしれません。
あと、「行きなさい、シンジ君！」ってお前が言ったんちゃんか!! と当時言われてましたね。
Grown-up staff who won't listen and won't tell you anything. The fate of the world gets handed to a bunch of teenagers, and the ones getting hurt are also the kids. Of course things turn tense and bitter…
人の話を聞かない&内容を話さない大人職員
世界の運命を託されているのは思春期の子供達で痛い思いをしているのも子供達
ギスギスするのは仕方がないじゃんね…
If a single functional adult had been present, a proper explanation and some actual care would have happened. The adults around him are dodging responsibility. The end.
まともな社会人がいればきちんとした説明やケアなどできていたはず。周りの大人が対処に対し責任逃れ 完
The Unit-03 battle is where it suddenly goes pitch dark…
参号機戦から一気に暗くなるんだよね…
A world without a single adult you can lean on. The worst possible one.
頼れる大人がひとりもいない最悪な世界
Also, they never properly explain anything to the Children.
あとチルドレン達にちゃんと説明しない
Isn't the problem that not one character ever leads with a reason or an explanation, only with emotion?
That's what I kept thinking the entire time I watched it back then.
And the ones who do explain go the other way, no feeling at all, just flat facts.
I had no idea there was a reason that deep behind it. Reconstructed, huh.
これ、登場人物みんなが最初に決して理由と説明はせず、感情のみで接するから問題あるんじゃないのか？
と思って当時はずーと観てたな。
説明してきた人は逆に感情入れないで、淡々と事実だけ言うし。
まさか…そんな深い理由があったとはね…
再構成された…か(汗)
Say what you want, but Rei is just cute.
なんだかんだ綾波がかわいい
It's completely unfair. They tell him go out and fight, then when it fails he's told to atone for his sins. The other pilots don't get told maybe I should have taken it down myself either, they just get yelled at for being slow to decide. Across this whole film series Shinji gets an absurd deal.
完全に理不尽だよな戦ってこい！と言っといて失敗したら罪を償えって言われるし他のパイロットも自分が倒せたら…とかじゃなくて判断が遅いだよ！とキレられるしでこの映画シリーズ全体通してシンジ理不尽な目に会いすぎ
I love how the three of them sit in "In the Still Darkness." Rei: "Humans feared the dark, used fire, and have lived by carving the darkness away." Asuka: "oooh, deeep~" Something about that little exchange just gets me, no idea why.
「静止した闇の中で」の3人の距離感好き
綾波「人は闇をおそれ火を使い闇を削って生きてきたわ」
アスカ「てっつがくぅ〜」
特にこのやり取りがなんか無性に好き
