First one I wanna do/that I’ve been working on is about silent hill 2 (do a thread on that eventually) but I think I wanna tackle eva and maybe that might be the next one I work on :D

I’ve been needing to vent about Eva for a bit now so.. glad I could do that. I will continue to post more threads about things I enjoy with this new view of reality

Eva has taught me to embrace life, joy and all the other great things and appreciate that I am alive on this planet. Eva has allowed me to move on from my mistakes and accept myself and that I’m human and I should be happy about that. And be happy about my existence. Thank you evangelion

4.0 taught me that.
Pain and suffering are apart of life and we simply have to accept it. Along with acceptance you can’t move forward in life without accepting yourself and learning to love yourself too.

Since then (like a few days ago) 4.0 is all I’ve thought about just the very thought of it brings a tear to my eye, I’ve never once had a movie do this to me ever

I cried a lot watching 3.0 and 4.0 to where I had to pause 4 multiple times to cry (which I have never done) and I pretty much cried myself to sleep after I watched it (it was also 4 in the morning)

Mid way through 2024 I had a sorta mid life crisis I guess and fell back into a state of mind I didn’t think I’d be met with again, it was like staring into a void. As humans we obviously all make mistakes though I let those consume me and take control when I felt like I was moving on

I loved the 2.0, 3.0 felt like a fever dream with the amount of shit going on, and 4.0 (I’m calling it that cause I don’t wanna type the title out) was a movie I didn’t think I ever needed so badly.

Why I just didn’t watch the rest idk but here we are. Now being an unc (turning 21 this year) I saw an edit of Eva on my Tik Tok and said to myself “Hey I never finished those movies, I should do that” So in the span of 2 days I watched the remaining 3 movies.

I watched 1.0 in 2022 and I enjoyed it, at the time it was like a fresh coat of paint over something I really enjoyed.. so I didn’t watch the other 3 for another 2 years :D

And that was kind of my eva experience.. for a bit since I wanted to try and move past eoe. 2021 rolls by and I see a trailer for 3.0 +1.0 (what a fucking title) and my ass got reminded of Eva and the rebuild movies (didn’t even know they existed)

This movie genuinely fucking ruined my mental (for like a solid year) There was not a day where in the back of my brain I wasn't thinking about it, If i had a dollar everytime i rewatched the final scene.. I wouldn't actually know cause I can't remember how many times I did it (it was alot)

When I finished the series I like most people felt a bit strange about the ending and thought it wasn't a satisfying ending, Until discovering netflix added the end of evangelion (completely clueless at the time of what it was) I got into a call with one of my friends and we watched eoe and.

Eva had a big effect on me and I mean big effect, This was like the first time I ever really related and connected to characters, which at first I thought was stupid relating to fictional characters, though turns out it might be the best thing to happen
