The last one I can recall genuinely hating most of the way through was Rebuild of Evangelion 4, the plot felt completely incoherent and most of the characters just thrown about randomly with no care given except for genuinely exploitative scenes, with an ending that feels literally only made to be applicable to Anno himself.
i was just about to post this! Back in my day, some of us got together on the hextube and watched the Reshill of Evangelion movies after the originals
number 4 was easily the worst
incoherent rancid copefest of pure ideology, utter fucking nonsense bastardization of the original, prime example of how neoliberal austerity fucks up culture and destroyed the collective ability to imagine a better future, a spectacular cinematic fuckup overall, festering shit in the trashcan of ideology
yes, it was even worse than #3’s incoherent bullshit, a disjointed mess that gets progressively worse until it is laughably bad at the end, you did not miss out on anything but unintentional comedy that is not worth suffering 2 hours for
Eternally young teenagers get sent off to arranged relationships or put in gay limbo forever, but only after getting shown off to the audience in blatant sexualized “battle damaged” rubber suits for fanservice, before the main character just makes it so nothing bad ever happened in the timeline and goes off to marry the self insert of the real directors wife who’s character didn’t do a single thing in the whole series of movies except battle scenes and fanservice.
yh absolute fucking garbage, kicker is that one of those habsburg (yep, that bunch of evil bastards who made europe suffer for centuries) motherfuckers was praising it as high art on twitter when it came out

great combination of the neoliberal fetishization of youth combined with literal arranged marriages and the closeting of gays lol

And this is why the Romanov solution needs to be employed more often. It’s maybe a little harsh in the moment, but there’s no other way to make sure.
Evangelion is the worst show I’ve watched in recent history.
I’m glad I watched it while I was sick and didn’t invest healthy time into it, I had time to burn but I still feel like it was a waste of time I won’t get back.

I never saw #4, considering how rock-stupid #3’s script was. And if it managed to be even dumber than that? That’s an accomplishment.
