>let's take Asuka's entire backstory and character, and condense it into a 5 second scene
Why do people say 2.22 is a good movie?
>>139726610
To be fair her backstory was retarded
>>139726610
Because she has a different character arc. The first Asuka loved being the center of attention and the most popular girl in school. This one is a loner who dislikes her classmates and would rather spend time with Misato than Kaji.
Also, no mommy issues.
>>139726610
Only MAL plebs think the Rebuilds are good.
>>139726610
It's just butthurt Reifags who want Asuka to have as little presence as possible.
the rebuild movies are great action movies
but Evangelion isn't an action series, it's foremost a character-driven drama that uses action to advance the plot

Who does?
>>139726610
Shikinami a cute!
A CUTE!!
>>139727893
people like 2.22
I understand it's a movie with time constraints but they're literally just explaining the entire conflict of the original series in plain words
What happened to "show, don't tell"?
>HEY SHINJI, I PILOT EVA FOR MYSELF. WHO DO YOU PILOT EVA FOR?
>I DON'T KNOW
>BAKA! THAT'S RUNNING AWAY FROM RESPONSIBILITY
Remember when their motivations were shown by their behaviors and not them explicitly stating "I pilot Eva because I want to be mature and independent and self-sufficient"
like FUCK where's the subtlety?
>>139727219
*Eva is good
>>139728231
Nobody likes 2.22, or rebuild in general. People are just starved for more Eva content.

MAL loves 2.22

No one doesBut the soundtack was fucking beautiful

>Why do people say 2.22 is a good movie?
Muh shipping
>>139726610
If the content of a character can be placed into a single 5 second scene then the character isn't deep.

>>139728323
That's pretty much what they did in episode 25/26 though.
Some people defend Asuka's backstory in 2.22.
idk why.
>>139729811
yeah but those were just like "in case you missed it, here's the moral of eva"
Can someone explain the purpose of Mari
They replaced Toji with Asuka and replaced Asuka with Mari, but why? All she does is job
2.22 is literally good
>>139730973
2.22 is literal shit.
OP here
what the fuck is going on
what is this Gurren Lagann spiral power bullshit
>>139731353
SHINJI HAS RED EYES
1.11 and 2.22 are movie versions of a series, what did you expect? There was no chance they would be great, you can only enjoy them for what they are.
3.33 was fine, but it's still a pointless continuation in a shiny package. Maybe 4.44 will validate it and be good in it's own right but it's doubtful.
>>139730973
2.22 was the worst rebuild. Pointless over-the-top action, overabundance of fanservice, character assassination up the arse, Mari is literally useless.
