{1} Let Shinji Ikari's expectations determine the fate of human beings.
Shinji lives according to the wishes of others. It is not so much his way of doing things that he is afraid of being hated by others. He lives in the hearts of others, and he was abandoned by his father since he was a child.
So lack of love and desire to be cared for.
And because they want to be cared for and are afraid of being hated, the opinions of others are especially important. This has shaped his slender and fragile mind like glass.
So sensitive.
Because he is sensitive, he pays too much attention to details and thinks too much about others, and there must be mistakes in the consideration. For example, he is afraid of being hated, so he always thinks about whether he hates himself or not. If things go on like this, he collects too much in his life from others. Evidence of hating him, a false argument: others hate myself, others are indifferent to me. came into his mind.
So he formed his own world.
But this world is not reality. The world, which he reasoned from the representations of different people, was not loved.
So escape.
At first, it could escape into songs, run away from home in a car, and be invisible to anyone, but in the end, with his sensitivity, he thought that the world was full of hate, and even because his existence was not recognized by others, he was seen by others. It is optional to come, and I hate myself because I have no meaning.
So there is nowhere to run.
At this point, he can be said to be on the verge of collapse (as evidenced by Shinji's constant shouting at the end of the film), the constant interweaving of real reality with his own world makes Ikari lose himself and don't know where to expect.
So let Ikari's expectations determine where humanity will go.
Ikari is only a representative of all living beings. To find hope is to find one's own pursuit, to find oneself. One's own loss is equivalent to death, and the expected recovery heralds one's recovery - a new life - even if his own voice has disappeared - an independent self that is not confused with other voices. Losing is inevitable, so death is inevitable, and the third shock is inevitable, and people find their own abilities, so people can be reborn after death. It seems that the ending of EVA is not sad, but an enlightenment. The director hopes that the audience can find themselves in the lost - to find love. Finally, the ending of INeed You gave the audience a bright hope.
{2}Asuka and Ikari have the same
destination. Compared with Ikari Shinji, Asuka obviously has the same effect on the theme, but her existence is also to reflect another psychological state, but people who have this kind of psychology are enlightened.
So what kind of person is Asuka?
She is competitive. This is only a superficial phenomenon. It is also because of the lack of love and the desire to get love. He likes to show himself in front of everyone, so he is competitive and hides his true self-even if it is forbidden to open an EVA, he must smile in front of his "mother". This kind of sadness is simply too common in real life. This is not the essence either.
Why is he crying in his heart, but smiling at the corner of his mouth?
Because of the fear of others peeping into his heart, the fear that others will understand his weakness, and lose his love for himself-fear of losing his outer shell, Asuka is lost because of this. In fact, the purpose of Asuka driving EVA and Ikari Shinji is the same, and their expectations are the same (this kind of expectation is what human beings need) - the care of others.
Asuka and Ikari are people who share similar bereavement experiences, have the same expectations, but differ in the way they pursue them. Ikari chose to escape into the world he built, and the destruction of this world made him see his expectations clearly.
Asuka chose to express herself, but once the performance fails, it will cause the consequences of collapse. In short, the two share the same goal and reflect the main theme.
