Later, a despondent Shinji stands at the edge of the crater lake by sunset, too afraid to go home or face Misato or Rei, and unsure of what happened to Asuka. Gendo then tells her that he is disappointed in her, but Ritsuko just replies that he never expected anything of her, to begin with, before he leaves her alone in her cell. Ritsuko only bitterly responds that her intention was to destroy Rei, and that she feels nothing for him anymore. She is confronted by Gendo, who tries to interrogate her on why she destroyed the Dummy System. He realizes that there is a definite connection between her, his mother, and the strange presence inside Eva-01, and he wonders what his father is planning to do with them.īack at Nerv Headquarters, Ritsuko is being held in a security cell for her actions in the previous episode. Back in his room in the apartment, Shinji lies on his bed in solitude, trying to process the recent disturbing revelations about Rei Ayanami. Hyuga relates the news of Asuka's recovery to Misato, who notes that it took an unusually long time for the agents to find Asuka, and that the timing is suspicious, due to it coinciding with the arrival of the Fifth Child.

Just then a Nerv Intelligence Agent happens upon her. She weakly that declares that she is worthless because she can no longer pilot an Eva, and therefore feels she no longer has any reason to go on living. Finally, we catch up with the present, where a desolate and haggard Asuka lies naked in a bathtub in the ruins of a house. Though she accuses Shinji of lying, the news still have a visibly devastating effect on her. The narrative then jumps to a more recent flashback of Asuka finding out about Kaji's death from Shinji. The episode opens on a flashback to the young Asuka running to inform her mother that she has been chosen as an Eva pilot, only to walk in on the aftermath of Kyoko's suicide. However, suspicions abound over Kaworu's incredible synchronization abilities, and when he reveals that he is the Seventeenth Angel, Shinji must battle his newfound friend or face the threat of world annihilation. Kaworu's openness and friendliness provide much-needed comfort for the disturbed Shinji.
NEON GENESIS EVANGELION EPISODE 19 ENG SUB SERIES
If you're a fan of the original series then this is a must see because it's way better than the original ending.Unable to find Asuka and too frightened to face Misato or Rei, Shinji runs away yet again, only to meet and strike a friendship with Kaworu Nagisa, the replacement pilot for Eva-02. This shows a much more dramatic and extended version of Episodes 25 and 26 however, and answers a lot of the questions that were left at the end of the series and does a great job generating new ones. While episode 26 of the original series is a complete fixation on Shinji, everything that happens in that episode still happens to him in the last part of this. If you've seen the original ending you already know that the actual "ending" analyzes the characters Shinji, Rei, Asuka, and Misato. This alternate ending to the series was released after fans complained about the series original ending. And even if one has seen the series they still might not get all of this, but that's the beauty of Anno's masterpiece Neon Genesis Evangelion: The End of Evangelion. However, many fans of the series carry animosities toward Winn Lee for authorizing such changes, and the DVD was criticized for its poor picture quality and errors in the subtitle translation.Ī precaution one might want to take before viewing this is: if one HASN'T seen the series they are NOT going to get this. (The original Japanese version of the film has no credits at the end.) These and other alterations are explained by Amanda Winn Lee, the writer, producer and director of the English version, in the DVD's commentary track. Finally, a set of translated credits set to the song "THANATOS ~ If I Can't Be Yours" is shown after the film's conclusion, but unlike the credits appearing halfway through the movie, these credits are shown in the standard "scrolling" fashion. Additionally in the dub, a shot in which a trooper attacks a NERV member with a flamethrower now has the added line "Hit 'im again!". In the English dub for instance, "splat" sound effects were dubbed into the scene of Misato shooting a trooper in the head and the scene in which the mass-produced Evas explode.
