I think I'm not the only one who noticed this:

Seeing the copies of these characters is a reflection of their identity problems because basically if you saw them without knowing them you wouldn't know which one is the real one.

Why is that most deconstructions seem take their premises way too far?

I want to make it clear this isn't an attack or even really a criticism of these works, this is more of an observation.

But take Madoka Magica. Spoilers.

I kind of wonder, why does Kyubey have to be some evil alien eldritch abomination, and becoming a magical girl is a Faustian bargain that turns the magical girl into basically a lich and then later on a monster?

Why not instead just do a more traditional magical girl story, something with a premise similar to Sailor Moon or Cardcaptor Sakura, but without the constraints of being aimed at children? Show that fighting monsters is dangerous, you can get seriously injured. You can die. Make the battles bloody and brutal, and emphasize that these are children who are stuck in this situation. Being a magical girl is essentially being a child soldier. And the severe toll this would have on them, physically, psychologically, and socially.

No need for some twist where it turns out the animal mascot is evil (or at most make their evil actions being that they used children to fight monsters) or using their magic has some kind of horrible effect, just simply deconstruct the idea of having children fighting monsters.

Evangelion is a another good example. Spoilers again.

At first, it seems to do exactly this. It points out how much it'd suck to actually be a mecha pilot who has to fight Kaiju. Even the deviations from traditional mecha seem to mostly be looking at consequences of the premise, how much of an asshole you'd have to be to put a child in a mech, what does a city/world constantly under attack by kaiju look like, etc.

But then it gets all incomprehensible cosmic horror on us.

And again, this is not an attack or even a criticism against these shows. I really like these shows, and I found their premises interesting and well done. It's more just an observation on how deconstructions are typically handled.

Superheroes are a weird example, since while most superhero deconstructions are just "Hey, what if supers were evil/assholes?", actual superhero comics have been deconstructing the more dark and miserable parts of the core idea for years now. Just look at the never-ending misery of Peter Parker and Bruce Wayne. It's been emphasized how much being a superhero sucks and isn't all fun and games since, like, the late Silver Age.

rewatching the final two episodes of evangelion and im reminded how good of a scene the opening scene is

it is in my humble opinion one of the best depictions of guilt in media

i could go on and on for hours what i appreciate about this scene but that would just turn this quick post into a essay

however i do find it funny that the shinji chair meme originated from a scene where the main character feels guilt over killing someone

I am watching the NGE rebuilds rn. And I dont think anything has made me dislike Shinji as a protagonist MORE than the end of 3.0. Because throughout the series Shinji has been a coward and a doormat, but that was part of why the show is good. He is a human boy in an impossible position with human flaws trying to do the best he can, including figuring out what 'the best he can do' even means. Hell, even including trying to save his friend and accidentally causing the Third Impact! But AT THE END OF 3.0. OOOOOOOORGH.

Shinji is passive, and does what he's told. Don't blame him for that. Shinji is desperate, and will go to frankly unreasonable lengths for a crumb of affection. Don't blame him for that. But initiating the fourth impact had NONE of these understandable, established, tragic flaws. They explain why he would go down in the first place-- not to mention the fact that he is truly desperate for a way to fix what he accidentally caused-- but as far as STILL GOING FOR THE SPEARS AFTER KAWORU SAID TO STOP he was JUST BEING A DUMBASS. He claimed that he was getting the Spears for Kaworu, who was ACTIVELY TELLING HIM TO STOP. Alongside, of course, literally everyone else.

Was he desperate to try and fix his mistake? Yes, and I can see why that would influence his decisions and rationality. But if he would just stop and listen for one fucking second then maybe things wouldn't have gone EVEN FURTHER TO SHIT. It was INFURIATING to see this guy get told "Oh shit this is not the thing that will let us fix what was destroyed, and in fact I am getting vibes that it is bad instead", ignore the person who is ostensibly the one he trusts most and told him abt this in the first place, and then when there are consequences he says "what? The thing I did was bad and not good?"

Yes. Everybody you have ever trusted said as much. My sympathy only stretches so far dude

Listen there's a small part of me that kind of understands why back in the day fans were unsatisfied with the original ending to evangelion, since it was pretty abrupt, didn't finish the actual plot happening, and felt way more positive than the previous episodes

But honestly I still see that "congratulations" scene as the better ending. The ending of evangelion is cool but I can't tell you how much shinji's realization of "maybe i can learn to like myself" and "it's okay for me to be here" fundamentally changed me as a person

#sorry but even i have to throw my two cents in with this series #neon genesis evangelion #neon genesis evangelion spoilers

[starkeaton]

its fucked up that one of the biggest things i knew about evangelion is "should shinji date rei or asuka" and then one of them turned out to be

(spoilers under the readmore)
