    Watching half way to episode 13

    I think they just dropped future drama material casually. Magi supercomputer is made from a human brain and the implication that's the same thing with Evas. While the yellow-haired girl with a mole says that like it's no big deal for her, despite it's her mother.

    Now if one of the unstable and selfish kids found out if the Eva made from people too... Ah the drama, delicioso!

    D.Gray Man Hallow Episode 7: Alma killed almost everyone at the lab after he regained his memories and synchronized with his innocence. Fou was actually there and probably could have protected them, but the scientists asked her not to. Perhaps they thought it was time they that payed for what they were doing. Kanda ended up having to destroy Alma after he synchronized with his Innocence, he hacked and slashed at him so many times. What makes it worse is that Alma himself wanted to die, but because of his regenerative powers, he couldn't kill himself. Back in the real world, Alma woke up and became a Akuma, and the episode ended with Kanda facing him.

    I wanted to know Kanda's backstory so badly, I finally got what wanted... I'm not a fan of how the Order is suddenly being put in a bad light. It's like everything went downhill with them ever since Rouvelier showed up with Link in season 4. Where the Generals and what are they doing? Heck, when is General Cross going to come out of hiding?

    Going to watch the original ending first, or End of Eva? (I strongly encourage the former, then either rewatch ep 24 or watch Death(True)2 to reset the mood, then EoE)

    I'm watching the one with 26 episode, that's the original right?

    So yeah, watching the original ending first.

    D.Gray Man Hallow Episode 8:
    Spoiler:
    All this stuff will Alma and Kanda, it was all just a plot by the Millennium Earl to awaken the Fourteenth. Kanda just had to stab Allen with Mugen...


    If it wasn't for the fact that it's past 12, I'd probably watch all the other episodes right now.

    Umm okay, I really like the show up to episode 24. But the final 2 episode... its not bad... but aren't this is like, a different show?
    Suddenly, everything they built up just gone: the third impact, Adam and Lilith, the mass-produced Evas, Asuka and Rei sub-plot and all the character sub-plot; those are no longer matters.
    It's a show about kids getting depressed and terrorized by piloting mechas and fighting aliens into something-something psychological?

    --------

    But now I get it why you guys says 'Congratulations' now.

    Congratulations.

    On the other hand, you can now
    forget all about it
    consider this an alternate ending
    and watch
    the actual ending (?)
    Death(True)2 and The End of Evangelion.


    it all returns to nothing
    it all comes tumb-uh-ling down tumb-uh-ling down tumb-uh-ling do-o-own

    WHAT

    Well, seriously though, even if this movie answers all the subplot, the conclusion is so weird it doesn't feel like a conclusion. The TV series gives a proper conclusion, while throwing every subplot into the window. But as a guy that wishes there is a single route where every character has their subplot tackled in FSN, I prefer the movie end.

    But what the hell happened? Did everybody really really dies into the LCE liquid? Why the board directors and Gendou happy with what happened, I thought they have different goals? Why only Asuka survive? But more importantly, why he still tries to choke her in the end?

    WHAT

    - - - Updated - - -

    I guess, Congratulations.

    Haven't watched Eva in a long time so i probably forgot some details.
    The goal of the directors is Instrumentality that is assimilating all of humanity into one. Shinji ultimately rejects it and cancels the process. Everyone else with a sense of self get to come back if they want to. Asuka did that.
    Why did he strangle her? I... don't understand too. Everyone's not in the right mind.

    I (kinda) get it that the goal of the directors is to assimilating humanity into LCL, but I thought that Gendou has different ideas. But ultimately, he was happy to 'meet' Yui again as the assimilation happens so I was like ???
    So ultimately, only Shinji and Asuka survive, while the rest of the world becomes LCL? Some sort of reverse Adam and Eve BS, I guess.

    It's been a long time but wasn't it something like,

    Seele's goal: merge humanity into a single conscience

    Gendo's goal: merge with Yui, fuck the rest

    Shinji's final decision: being individuals ain't so bad i guess

    Also Yui/EVA-01 forever sailing into outer space as a super human, that's kinda sad

    but if all humanity merges, he will merge with Yui anyway
    It kinda weirds that many people knowing the truth of the plan support him (Fuyutsuki, Kaji, Ritsuko before she gets humiliated)
    Though, Seele deliberately says that Gendo want to be/create a god, maybe those guys want the same thing too

    It's not as "Adam and Eve" as it first appears. Shortly before Shinji washes up on the shore, Yui mentions that every human has the chance to reject Instrumentality and accept the world, however imperfect or painful it may be. Shinji and Asuka were simply the first.

    In both the TV and movie endings, Shinji finally accepts and learns not to run away from the world that has hurt him. This is why the cast was congratulating him in episode 26. He learned his lesson and became a more mature person.

    Why did I feel that there is no actual meaning and they just throw some seemingly metaphorical crap to create more cults?

    Punchline is really fucking strange. Like I can predict 75% of the plot beats but that makes the remaining 25% even more WTF.
