This kind of thinking is in the present and must not subvert my survival thinking. With my current wisdom and my life experience, I still can't explain the reason why I live in this world, and can't tell me what I live for. Even though human society is full of sins, fears, and desires, as an individual, I have to figure out why I live independently of these external factors. I can't let deathism take hold until I understand why. Just like watching a movie, a movie is just a movie, and life is life after all. The two are absolutely separate fantasy and reality. What I need to understand is that I have to live well and until I find this reason, I have to try whatever I can to create more opportunities to broaden my horizons in order to discover the area where this reason exists, or in others See value, or find value in self-knowledge.
After reading the relevant comments on the Human Completion Project, I found that I may have misunderstood the original intention of EVA. The completion plan was still realized, and Yuandu failed. As for Shinji, in the sea of life in LCL, he saw the world he originally hoped for - people mixed into a whole, but it was still a chaotic world, and there was still constant conflict. At this time, Shinji Ikari really understood that no matter what state he was in, if his heart did not change, the world would not change in any way. In the end, he chose to return to the original world, decided to change himself, and decided to accept everything. Shinji finally chose to survive with this world full of contradictions through his own psychological perspective; Asuka came out of the deformed psychological state, re-acquainted with her mother and herself, only for the realization of herself, not for the praise of others. Battle, this important breakthrough brought her out of the gates of perdition. There are so many obscure psychological descriptions in EVA to let the audience see through their own psychology when they see through the psychology of the protagonist, and the final choice and ending of the protagonist did give the final answer after this layer of self confrontation--- -No matter how the world becomes, we should face our own psychology, we cannot escape, we must choose to walk with it at all times, face the world with self-change, adapt to the world, and adapt to the fact of "survival".
I think, EVA, as one of the greatest animation works in existence, its effect on me is more than just a pastime tool that I will never forget in my childhood. It opened my mind and pushed me to act in search of a reason to live.
