I don't want to get into a massive discussion about Evangelion here on this thread.

However, I would be happy to talk about the TV show ending and if I'm forced to, I'll talk about that horrible movie as well...)

you can e-mail me at UncleMilo@yahoo.com and I will be happy to talk about the show.

And that goes for anyone who wants to talk about Evangelion.

I am well versed, but not an expert of the show. I will never claim to have full knowledge, because I couldn't begin to talk about the hundreds of references to the Khaballa, like my friend could... but I still have enough of my own thoughts to go by.

SPOILER ALERT (Noir)

I forgot about Noir, because I file that one under crap. It was going good until ep 24, but they shot the series when Chloe died, and went cliche from there. That series' saving grace is the soundtrack, kinda like Initial D that way.

I love those endings. It makes you watch the whole thing over and over. And everytime you watch it again, you discover something new. I find that a lot of music videos are like that too. It`s just too much information trying to be crammed into your brain at once. It`s sort of a rush.

I'd have to say the crappiest ending I saw was from Kite

Since I also think Kite is one of the crappiest Anime I've seen, I'll agree with you there.

I've only watched one Anime series to the end: Neon Genesis Evangelion. The TV ending AND the Movie ending both sucked ass, but in different ways. The TV ending didn't answer jack shit, it just had the characters sitting in chairs and saying "Oh, woe is me, I have so many issues, I'm so f*cked up" followed by a whole load of shit about reality and perception. The movie ending answered a few questions, but it opened up a whole assload of other questions that didn't get answered, it had the same load of shit about dreams and reality, and the very very end is extremely depressing. I think the movie was badly needed, but done in the shittiest possible way.

I think Episode 24 would have been the best ending, as it made sense and ended on a happy note.

bla bla bla COMPLAINT
everyone has the right to his or hers own opinion but to rack down on anything like that blows. I understand that different people enterpret different movies in different ways. I just think that it sucks to throw something away just because one doesn't understand at first. I didn't understand it fully either, I still don't. But I researched about it and found out that it was a pretty good 'statement' and to some part, what it wanted to say.
