What do you think of the endings for Neon Genesis Evangelion? Do you prefer the original series ending or the one in
End of Evangelion.
I see it in two different ways:
One. The series ending is higly abstract but since the series central character is Shinji Ikari i guess it's right to have him able to overcome his troubles and find a purpose in life, no longer trapped in his lonely world.
Two. The End of Evangelion ending gives an apocalyptic end to humanity as we know it. This ending left me rather cold, by depicting an empty silent world. On the other hand the human race is in such a state maybe the solution is to end it altogether and start anew.
What do you think?
