. . . But I don't think that having Doug go into the Eva world is a good idea.
What I mean is, is that . . .
Well, Eva ended as well as it was going to. Shinji deciding that he'd rather live, and consequently have everyone else live, as individuals, with the betrayl and pain and abandonment inherent in that existence (as well as the positive stuff, too) is the best that it could have ended.
Now Doug . . . Doug's a good guy. But I don't think any number of pop-derived super-powers are going to stop the suicide spiral that everyone was on. Nor should it. Eva, I think, SHOULD have an amiguous ending (ambiguous as in you don't know if it's happy or sad).
Maybe it'd be better if Doug, no matter how many angels he beats down, no matter how many sanctimonious rants he directs as Gendo et al., CAN'T stop Third Impact.
Just a thought.
