In the final episodes of the anime, Asuka develops a deep self-loathing and begins to feel anxiety at the idea of being alone, [125] in a framework similar to separation anxiety disorder . While Shinji and Asuka are looking for the same thing, their relationship in Evangelion can be best described as oil and water. Unluckily for Asuka, it is not over. He doesn't know how to relate to people." Yet, she may also be feeling a bit jealous of the attention Shinji is giving to Rei, even though Asuka is the one that distanced herself from him, to begin with. Then he firmly wraps his arms around himself and hugs himself. His acceptance isn't enough; she needs more. Shinji is, however, frustrated that he cannot understand them, or other people in general. Misato sees this and decides it's better for them to live together.

Asuka starts to resent Shinji's success because, unlike Shinji, Asuka has not only deposited almost her entire self-worth into piloting, she has spent almost her entire life working for it, so Shinji surpassing her in so little time is unearned and unjust in her opinion, as if he did not deserve this success as he has not worked hard enough for it. Once again the duality of their relationship comes into play to complicate things. Asuka and Shinji are employed together, but she proceeds to charge the opponent on her own, forcing Shinji to cover her, with the sole purpose of proving to him and everyone else her superiority. When Kaji arrives home with Misato, she quickly puts up a smile and tries to get him to spend some time with her. The mind-violation doesn't help Asuka better accept herself or Shinji, it simply serves the purpose of allowing the viewer to better understand her. You made a girl cry!". Don't they ever stop!? While he's there, he accidentally removes her hospital gown, exposing her breasts. He doesn't hold or touch Asuka in any way during the kiss (which Asuka explicitly says she wanted him to do later on in the series), and Shinji makes no attempt to change this even though Asuka is deliberately prolonging the kiss. As such, clashing with him on a regular basis causes Asuka to shift onto Shinji part of the hatred she feels for herself. Later, at the end of the episode, Asuka is seen trying to spend some time with Kaji. In-story: shinji can't figure out how to honestly relate to asuka except as a sex object, so when given the opportunity, he does a terrible, selfish thing without regard for her.

It obvious that his wish for Asuka's return at this point is more about having some sense of normalcy restored to the household than anything else. Even though it would be possible to just try to punch him or push him off her, to reject him again, she has instead chosen to accept him. As such, he refuses to pilot until Misato dies, but, after spending so much time hiding himself and refusing to move, by the time he arrives in Unit 01's cage the Eva is already enclosed in bakelite. She is both emotionally abusive (constantly berating and belittling him) and physically abusive towards him, even though the latter is played for laughs. Shinji repeatedly asks for Asuka to help him, which Misato criticizes him for, and he does not move even when Misato tells him he needs to pilot and to help her, but Shinji, after killing Kaworu, believes that every time he gets in an Eva he only hurts people and causes more pain. If you cannot be mine and mine only, I don't even want you.". This further reinforces Asuka's implication that this was not only a spur-of-the-moment act. Also notable is the fact that though the two of them are shown to be together, neither of their faces are shown in the same shot. This, along with Shinji's improvement as a pilot, act as elements of foreshadowing for painful and negative experiences Asuka will go through in later stages of the story. Not only do Shinji and Asuka miss a chance to connect further, they also fail to establish support from one other that they would desperately need as the war with the Angels worsens in subsequent episodes. It is and is not the final scene of EoE." Asuka sarcastically expresses her envy and resentment for the praise Shinji receives, only to then head home on her own. And what is especially notable is the fact that Asuka is explicitly portrayed as being the dominant part in the situation: she is on top of Shinji and has him effectively pinned down. Asuka on top of a seemingly naked Shinji, reflecting their sexual tension, "The sight of you makes me so irritated!". It is important to note that, in the second part of the mind-violation, Asuka denies feeling lonely and reaffirms her independent attitude. As expected, Shinji agrees to kiss her but, despite Asuka prolonging the exchange for as long as Shinji could breathe, he fails to understand its real meaning and to provide her with the support she needs. The fight of the episode offers the three pilots another opportunity, once again successful, to cooperate. As she looks up, she notices Rei and Shinji on another platform, talking (the first time since Shinji's incident), prompting an annoyed reaction: "He spent an entire month dissolved inside Eva and he's already back to his old ways. This is also supported in a more subtextual manner via clever use of cuts during important moments to establish a parallel between the Shinji/Asuka relationship and that of Misato and Kaji. When Hikari asks about him, the second pilot refers to Shinji by saying: "Actually, he's the most dense of them all. Shinji embodies Asuka's shadow. Asuka tells herself that she doesn't want to die. As she states that, we are shown flashes of instances, throughout the series, in which Asuka had been in need of Shinji's support: the "walls of Jericho" and the kiss, being the most relevant. Ogata actually choking Miyamura for the EoE scenes was clearly consensual, despite rumours to the contrary. In a flashback to about one week before the real start of the episode, what can be assumed to be Asuka and Shinji's last conversation in Misato's apartment is shown. This is outright stated in the Episode 22 Platinum Commentaries: "And likewise, after the kiss scene from Episode Fifteen, "Lies and Silence," there is a new scene showing her looking frustrated after rinsing her mouth. What is also notable is that he appears to be at least somewhat oblivious to how deeply he hurt her during their last confrontation. This could have been made by Touji and/or Kensuke poking fun at the "married couple" as they do early in other episodes, with Asuka taking notice of it and scribbling over it, or Asuka simply drew this herself, only to immediately regret it, and try to erase it, and calling herself an idiot for doing so, in her usual prideful tsundere manner, with her classmates also taking notice later. Her familiarity with Shinji is at once apparent as she greets him with a cheery "Guten Morgen! We explain the infamously complicated multiple endings of the Evangelion TV series and movie. This is certainly one of the scenes in which the duality of their relationship is most obvious. The last scene of the episode has Shinji try to comfort Asuka, only to be pushed away by her, as she is furious about having been saved by Rei. Asuka's increasing jealousy towards Misato also comes up again, when an absent-minded Kaji tries to wave her off with the excuse that he is busy, and she complains - half to him, half to herself - that he always seem to find the time for Misato, before trying to push him even harder into paying attention to her by aggressively hugging him from behind, despite his outspoken annoyance. When she learns he had asked Rei the same question, she seems to show a hint of possessiveness, making a pointed comment about how close he and Rei seem to be. During a particularly memorable scene in End of Evangelion, where Shinji visits a comatose Asuka in the. Asuka, Rei and Shinji find themselves having to deal with a blackout at the base, while having to reach their Eva in order to confront the angel attacking (Matarael). You can do anything you like to my body, as you did at that time.". [18], Hideaki Anno has also written a song that seems to be about their relationship. They proceed to eviscerate and dismember Unit-02 using their Spear of Longinus replicas, thus causing Asuka's body to actually suffer the wounds inflicted to the machine and apparently killing her (her Entry Plug is never seen being destroyed, but the NERV staff appear to believe she's dead). The only relevant scenes in the episode concern Asuka and Shinji, is when Asuka chews him out for failing to bring lunch to school for her, and Shinji meekly making excuses in return, leading them to get accused by Toji of fighting like a married couple, which they both deny. It is interesting to note that, in the message, where she pretends to be stalked by a pervert just to get Kaji to pick up, she shouts for his "help". Despite the initial issues in reaching an acceptable level of synchronization, it is only thanks to their combined effort that they eventually succeed in winning. He remains catatonic while all Nerv personnel, including Misato, are killed during an attack.

Kaji shows up with Ritsuko, which leads Asuka, who had been anticipating his arrival, to have a jealous reaction. After this moment and in Episode 16, Evangelion as a whole has a tonal shift, and becomes far darker and more blatantly philosophical and psychological. In the series she had shown to understand him, but never to such an extent. Namely, while Shinji runs away from people and isolates himself in order to avoid intimacy and the risk of rejection and to always stay in his comfort zone, Asuka pushes them away from her with arrogance and abrasiveness, trying to cultivate a false image of herself that keeps her from facing reality. It proves to be her stepmother instead. Both events can be summed up as moments where Shinji has inadvertently done profound and deep emotional damage to Asuka. This isn't the only complaint surrounding the new Netflix release of Evangelion. And from Asuka's dialogue that overlaps these scenes, it becomes clear that she has been looking for help and love from Shinji."[6].

Shinji, already royally screwed up psychologically, visits Asuka as she lays comatose on a bed. It's interesting to note that Shinji attacks the angel with the express intention to prove himself to Asuka, and even says "combat is a man's job", a rather offensive statement when all of his teammates and immediate superiors are women, as if he feels emboldened by kissing Asuka. What is notable here is that these moments, while not outright unimportant to Shinji in and of themselves, are arguably of much greater and central importance to Asuka's character arc than they are to his. Make fun of me like you always do! It's similar to writing a heart shape with "Asuka+Shinji" inside it. The poster for End of Evangelion directly parallels this scene, except that this time Asuka and Shinji are close to one another, the barrier between is gone, and they seem much more relaxed and at ease with each other. Asuka has a revelation: the voice she is hearing is her dead mother's soul residing within her Evangelion. Shinji could be that person, but Asuka can't seem to accept it.

Rather, Shinji wants things to be clear-cut and easy, and for people to simply exist to serve his needs, without him having to do anything for them himself or to actually earn their affection. Essentially, in Asuka's case, she rejects the part of herself she deems unacceptable in an attempt to maintain a positive image of herself as an independent and mature person. Youre telling me that I lost to this puppy? Had the kiss been successful, even without romance, it is is entirely possible the entire story would have taken a different turn. As we mentioned earlier, Shinji uses Asuka as an escape from his fear of abandonment and for the affection he strives for. In the fight Asuka puts herself in danger, to protect Shinji, returning him the favor from the previous fight. If Shinji was able to get to the Eva early, it is entirely possible he and Asuka could have defeated the MP Evas. Asuka and Shinji are employed together, but she proceeds to charge the opponent on her own, forcing Shinji to cover her, with the sole purpose of proving to him and everyone else her superiority. LIKE HELLO???? There is evidence that that Asuka made the conscious decision to live as an individual and returned from Instrumentality, similarly to Shinji, and has even chosen to lay down at his side. Now we know with some confidence that Shinij is at the hospital because he is looking for the same kind of comfort and direction he received from Kaworu and Misato and because he has nowhere left to go to. If I am to die, then let it be with a sword in my hand, my enemies at my feet, and my blood on my body.

Yes she is. Misato and Ritsuko even notice that Shinji is suddenly acting more manly. What is, however, worth noticing when it comes to the bigger picture, is that the second and fourth exchanges are essentially twisted retakes of events from the show; respectively, Asuka and Shinji's disastrous kiss from Episode 15, and Shinji confronting Asuka with Kaji's death in Episode 24. In effect, Asuka is not only lamenting that Shinji won't support her and hold her during the kiss, but that he didn't even at least give her affection through sex. Now that's really arrogant! The distress from this revelation has a serious impact on Asuka's already severely weakened psyche and it is what finally pushes her completely over the edge; as the narrative finally cuts to the present, she has been on the run from home for seven days and seen lying in a bathtub in the ruins of a house, obviously physically weakened and completely sapped of the will to live as Section 2 finally finds her. The accusation in question should not be interpreted as an inability to feel but as an inability to translate the feelings to meaningful acts of love.

The irony is that it's clear that as 14 year old teenagers without a purpose in life or anyone to care for them, they're both sexually and romantically attracted to each other.
