No, no thats not snarky at all, and to be honest I think your right 
. At the very least its not actually incomprehensible.
Although there a few reasons reasons why I can understand people's frustration with it:
1.[spoilerinline] So there was no paradise for wolves? The flower girl only had the power to restore nature? Is that the jist.[/spoilerinline]
2.[spoilerinline] Why did that idiots eye have to contaminate the world again!![/spoilerinline]
3.[spoilerinline] I wanted to see them make it to paradise! Not some murky city , only to inevitably go through the same stuff all over again. [/spoilerinline]
Still the more I'm thinking about it now, the more I'm starting to like it. And I still think its a good show, I shed tears when [spoilerinline]Hubb and Cher died[/spoilerinline] manly tears though ya hear and don't let no one else tell you otherwise!
As for EVA though, I'm sorry but there's no redeeming that ending.. it was GIBBERISH, I like genuinely esoteric stuff but that was just GIBBERISH and pretentious. They just threw a bunch random things together, pretentious Christian symbology: check, [spoiler] Shinji choking Asuka for no reason at all[/spoiler]: check, hmm what else can we get in, how about a giant head sliced in half and a red sea: check. When they made that they blatantly thought " We are so 8) , they gonna be trying to figure this **** out for decades!". I thought the last line was entirely appropriate though, as that was exactly my thoughts on what I had just watched! Ahem sorry, I went on a bit of a rant there.
I'm somewhat the opposite. If I come to like and be attached to the cast, I really want it all to end strongly and live up to the potential. I only feel more disappointed when a show reels me in with great characters and stories only to flush it all down the toilet at the last hurdle.
