What exactly is EVA? When I was a child, watching EVA, I felt that it was no different from watching Gundam, a story of several super advanced robots fighting monsters to protect human beings from destruction. For a while, the mantras were full of "launch", "AT stand", and for me at that time, EVA was an animation that didn't quite fit the animation style I had seen before. don't like it very much.
So far, looking at EVA again, what is it like? I feel like I'm as lonely and aloof as everyone who's seen it. There is no passion for watching it at the beginning, and there are only ashes after the burning of passion.
Each of us is Ikari Shinji and Asuka. Under our cowardly and strong appearance, it is just to hide our real fragility and vulnerability in our hearts. Isn't this the real meaning of AT field's existence?
We were all born in Lilith, we were born with original sin, we can't get rid of it, we can only get rid of our destiny in the bloody and violent struggle. EVA tells us so. Humans finally completed the completion through the No. 1 machine and returned to the starting point of life. Start all over again. And we are destined not to turn a circle back to the beginning, there is only one way for us, and in the end there is only destruction. The world is like this, and so are people.
I want to say, eva is an inflection point in my mind. Counting them, he has some weird words, Kabbalah Tree of Life, Marduk Institution, Dead Sea Documents, Lilith... From the beginning to the end, from the beginning to the end, all of them are controversial. The symphony is accompanied by scenes of blood and violence. The exposed hearts and deformed characters of the protagonists make people wonder whether this is suitable for children to watch. Yet it was in this controversy that it was born, and it affected almost a generation. However, the era that belongs to us is over, and EVA is over after all.
As I said at the beginning, I held back for a long time and wanted to write a lot about my feelings about watching EVA. Maybe this is how I feel now.
