Hey, /a/. I have an itch to get back into Evangelion. I haven't watched anything since the original series, and I know there's been a slew of new media since then.
So, I'd like to know, what's worth watching of the new shows/movies that have been released since the original incarnation?
End of Evangelion compliments the original series.
Evangelion 1.11/2.22/3.33 are a retelling of the story that are pretty fucking shit.
But who cares this is now an Asuka thread

Dag. So another case of failing to catch the lightning in a bottle, eh? That's too bad.
What's all this "You shall (not) pass" stuff I keep hearing about?

Watch EoE and listen to the Rebuild soundtracks

Definitely is. Everything is has much less depth, and the entire experience feels much less intense, even though a lot of the action and story is set up to be.
And the "you shall (not) pass" is just a play on the titles of the films.

Another question: why does Asuka have an eye patch in the new stuff?
Nice recommendation thread.

At this time, its unknown. The two theories are I've seen are:
Sequel Theory - google it, it's quicker than me explaining.
Bardiel Infection/Sealing - In Rebuild 2.22 Asuka gets directly attacked by the Angel Bardiel. See the picture for this. The patch glows blue, some folks think it acts as a means of sealing the Angel. Some argue that she was declared contamination free, which is true. But the original scene, which was scrapped, had Asuka suffer a bit of a mental break down. Her face would peel off and it would speak to her in Kaworu's voice. This neglects potential "mental contamination"
Asuka a best. Glory to the best girl

Only if you have seen End of Evangelion you would know.During the battle of the mass production Eva, Asuka Eva was hit by a Spear of Longinus in the eye, making Asuka eye blind.

This anon >>140163479 is referencing sequel theory.

It's been close to 15 years since I watched EoE. Thanks for the reminder, though, and the explanations.

That's a cute Shiki.
Got any more?

Sorry fampai, I'm at work and all my Asuka shit is on my home PC. If the thread is still up later today, then I'll post my faves.
