'The end of Evangelion' does not add to the last two chapters of the series, but replaces them, since what happens here has nothing to do with the end of the series, let's say it is an alternative ending.
Because basically this film is two episodes I am going to divide this review in two parts.
·Chapter 25: We see how Seele intends to destroy Nerv base and take the Evas for the third impact to take place. Seele attacks with tanks, army, nuclear bombs and everything (so the fans have the action they wanted for the end).
To defend against the attack, Asuka with Eva-02 recovering her synchronization kills everything and then the other 9 base Evas appear.
At that moment Shinji is there at the base with his usual anguishes, feeling like shit and even more because in the morning he jerked off looking at the tits of an unconscious Asuka laying on a stretcher.
Misato asks Shinji to go out and fight, but he does not want to move because he has had enough of Evas, his life and his dramas, so Misato kisses him and promises that when everything ends he will get laid (in just one chapter Shinji enjoys life more than in the previous 24 chapters).
Shinji goes to the surface horny as a motherfucker but just to see that the base evas have already eaten Eva-02 and crucified Shinji's Eva-01.
Chapter 26: In my opinion this last chapter raises more interesting things than the thousand and one questions that Shinji asks himself seeking to understand his life, feeling and so in the last chapter of the original anime .
Rei becomes Eva, denies Gendoh Ikari and goes out to meet Shinji, who is now Adam, together they create a new world, have sex (so Shinji can get familiar with the new life he found in the previous chapter) and later there are only two humans left on earth: Adam (Shinji) and Lilith (Asuka), whom Shinji really loves instead of Rei, who is basically a copy of Yui, her mother. And there, with the two of them, everything ends (or begin).
This last chapter is visually fascinating, it has richness, the images are very powerful and diverse, the animation has a great quality, it plays with real image, drawings, black and white, colors, etc. The only bad thing is that it is somewhat excessive; it is intended that the end becomes the absolute apotheosis, strange things appearing one after the other and each one of them is supposed to have a parallelism with the bible, I don't know, it is all a bit overwhelming.
A very good ending, I like it more than the original even if that one is good too, let's see how things end with the fourth movie that I haven't watched yet.
