——Analysis of the roles of the
three important women in Shinji's life, Rei, Asuka, and Misato , Asuka is the completely opposite character to Shinji, but the essence is the same, that is the extreme self, Asuka has both her own components and her own yearning components for Shinji. From a psychological point of view, people have their own There are no people who worship and yearn for. For example, if you are cowardly, you will definitely like those strong people; if you are strong, you will definitely yearn for the kind of free and easy people. This explains why Shinji has been longing for Asuka to save himself in the end.
3. Misato, in Shinji's mind, represents a real woman, both physically and psychologically, and Misato has played a certain role as a mother. This is something that Shinji's real mother has never done. Go Really love him and care for him; at the same time, from a certain psychological point of view, all men are Oedipus, women are born mothers, and men are born children. Misato is a complex fusion of love and family affection for Shinji. In the end, Misato's adult kiss to Shinji also illustrates this problem. Misato is an extension of the Electra plot for Gart, and an extension of maternal love for Shinji. If the mother needs to sacrifice herself to achieve the child's growth, the mother will, no matter what (there are some incest stories like this in some European legends in the ancient impression)
4. Finally, I have to mention that Kaoru, an ambiguous relationship similar to the same sex, the director What do you want to explain, will there be no outlet for love on the female side, and Shinji is trying to find an outlet on the same-sex side?

As for the settings of these three female characters, I don't know if the director set them up at the beginning, or whether they were spontaneously set according to their own nature. After all, after checking the data, Shinji's role settings incorporate too much of the director's own experience and psychological characteristics. ingredients, maybe in real life, the director himself really has such three role fantasies. People will meet all kinds of people according to their own psychological needs, and then complete their role positioning.

——Analysis of LCL sea

I didn't quite understand this thing at first, what is it? I checked some netizens' information and got inspiration. Is it similar to the concept in The Matrix, the world was destroyed by the third impact, and everyone's soul was integrated into LCL, something like The concept in The Matrix, human beings will exist in their own imagination in some special form, maybe the electronic pulse symbol like 1010, maybe LCL, and the real world will develop in its unique form, and it is also the computer mechanical world, maybe Did it evolve from a single cell, and the real world eventually evolved into a world with human existence, and LCL became the ghost world or the supernatural world we often talk about, or a world with religious meanings such as heaven and hell? do not know. Just a sudden inspiration.

——The interpretation of a large number of streams of consciousness about the ending is

obviously a metaphor for the self-avoidance of those nerds, and a scene from the real world is added to the eoe, and it is even possible that the close-up of the theater is the reality of a certain studio when eoe is released lens. EVA itself is the author's dream, escaping the frustrations of reality in the virtual world, Shinji is the director himself, the director is telling himself through Shinji, only when the third shock is triggered and the virtual world is destroyed, can Shinji in the virtual world have The opportunity to see the real world through the screen, it turns out that these are my own fictional worlds, this is just a dream of my own, and I am only needed by the world when I am dreaming. space to meet your greatest needs. At the end, the world disappeared, and the fusion of Rei and Lilith, after asking Shinji's choice, self-destructed, leaving Asuka and Shinji behind. At that time, I felt that this was not the reenactment of the fable of Adam and Eve? Shinji saw through everything and wanted to wake up from the virtual world, so he tried to strangle Asuka, and finally gave up cowardly. Asuka spit out a sentence: It's bad enough. This may mean that the director himself has made EVA's glory, and he has been deeply involved in it. When he wants to end it in the TV version (according to the data, the director wants to end EVA at the 20th episode, and later he was forced by others.) Like Shinji, I wanted to strangle this beautiful woman to end this hard and wonderful nightmare, but I finally gave up. EVA continues, Shinji's world continues, and Adam and Eve will create a new human world.
This animation has some commercial elements in the middle. The beginning and the end are really the plaything of the director, and it is a finished product of self-emotional venting. What is art, what is business, business is the art of pleasing everyone, and art is just to please yourself the art of.


——Things that I do not understand:

1. The purpose of triggering the third shock?

Seele should be in blind religious worship, similar to what many cults say now. The concept of how to obtain eternal life at the end of the world is the information obtained from the Book of the Dead Sea, right? So what about Yuandu, what is his purpose, or is he always organizing the third shock? So what was the purpose of the apostles' attack? Why did the nine self-created apostles complete the ceremony instead of the most natural apostles in the front? Why are there nine, when the natural number is seventeen (or eighteen, the first machine is also an apostle)?

2. I remember that Gart gave Yuandu an egg, why didn't he explain it later?

3. Why does the combination of the first machine and Lilith cause the third shock? Isn't it Adam, the first machine is just the second apostle? And the combination of the apostle and Lilith won't cause anything, this seems to have been explained before.

4. Lilith lacks that part of Li's soul. Lilith will be complete only when Li is absorbed. This is understandable, but why does Yuandu promote this?



I really like if someone can help me explain, thank you~
