It was only after two brushes that I realized that "EVA" is not a tragic story (that is, the tragedy of the father representing the evolutionary will of power of human beings being defeated by the mother who conforms to the instinctive consciousness of biological reincarnation). After Lilith and Adam combined, all life turned to ashes The deputy commander said, "In the emptiness created by the third impact, will the tree of life become an ark that saves mankind? Or will it become a demon that destroys mankind? The future is in the hands of Ikari's son. ." And audiences who understand the EVA mythology should know that the deputy commander is very expressive from the perspective of creation outside the human group to make such an statement-that is, just relative to the human species, the tree of life is an ark or a demon, not a Affect its own neutrality, so we have two choices before we deduce the protagonist Shinji Ikari: 1. Disintegrate the wall of the heart to eliminate the estrangement in the human soul Eliminate the species of human beings All souls belong to a mother ( It may be understood that human beings return to the Garden of Eden, which does not distinguish between good and evil. Even Eve does not exist. Only Adam’s state) Time, space, and all meanings derived from the relationship between human beings do not exist. Only me, I am Adam, and you are too. Adam, he is also Adam, there is no one who is not Adam, so there is no you or him. The world was originally created from three, all things, you and me, and he is three. Now there is only one and all things are unified. The real realization of a utopia without individuals and only one is the destruction of the human species. The demon humans reached the end of evolution and was destroyed, but Adam reappeared at the beginning of life and was reborn. Another cycle began After the impact, keep the wall of the heart and let human beings cross the ark to escape the catastrophe and continue the fire, so following the appearance of childhood scenes, Shinji Ikari started his choice.
Pyramids - the pyramids that symbolize human civilization repeatedly appear in EVA, whether it is TV version or theatrical version, the pyramid in the underground space can be said to be one of the classic symbols of EVA 1. Why are there no other buildings such as Greek temples, Eiffel Eiffel Tower, Statue of Liberty? Because the pyramid is the oldest symbol of civilization and originated from African human civilization, it should be the first choice One source 3. Shinji Ikari and his friends built a sand pyramid model together. When the sun went down, the other children were brought home by their mother. Shinji Ikari looked at the pyramid without a mother and couldn’t help thinking about the use of stepping on the pyramid without caring. What is the significance of the rotten pyramid indicating that human beings do not love civilization?
Mom/Eros/Love? ——According to the theory of psychoanalysis, a complete person is a person with two spontaneous emotional tendencies, such as Kafka’s patriarchy, according to the different proportions of the two tendencies in the personality. The large proportion has led to his empty, solitary, self-conscious, and sober personality. I would like to give an example that may not be recognized by many people - Dostoevsky (Old Russian writers have a lot of Oedipal tendencies) "Crime and Punishment" by Toon, one of the representatives of old Russian writers, reflects the confrontation between Eastern/Slavic sentiments and the will of Western superhumans, and the national situation in which superhumans are finally destroyed. This religious sentiment of redemption originated from Russian Oedipus Faith in the Collective Faith in the Clan He doesn't really have love. "You guys just make fun of me with smiling faces, and you just want to maintain an ambiguous relationship." Because it is impossible for people to understand each other, without mutual understanding, there is no way to talk about Ikari Shinji's "superego" With the help of the "self" that turned into Asuka, she said bluntly, "You have never liked others, you only have yourself in your heart, and you have not even liked yourself." A person who doesn't even love himself is probably the only place left in his heart. Let's go to nothingness. The stripped "I" is exposed in the air and can't look directly at people. So it is such a thing! ——Pure desire, so Shinji wanted to strangle Asuka, who knew the truth, also decided to make this hateful species disappear.
"Ode to Joy"/"let me jump" - the same BGM of the happy ending of human beings. The former is used in the TV version of the scene where Nagisa Kaoru and Shinji compete for the evolution of the tree of life. The latter is used to disintegrate the soul of everyone The use of the latter in the one-piece scene is appropriate to show that everyone is quantized, found true love in the sea of souls, and achieved the fulfillment of life. But the use of the former I think many viewers still don't understand why you live and die. In the cruel evolution, "Ode to Joy" is used as the back note? We know that the chorus of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony is the Ode to Joy. The Gospel of the New Century points out that the fundamental question about human beings is - to live is to fall, to be ugly, and to be dirty. The opposite of life is death and death is purification. The only joy is Death No one can conquer death, so conquering death is the last and greatest dream of mankind. People who can conquer death are extremely happy, and the body is bound to decay. Only the spirit can last forever. In the evolution of life, there is only one thing that can make human beings do not need the body. Eternal life but can spirit Eternal joy ode to joy and death
The Sea of LCL and the Sea of Souls - I finally figured out what LCL is all about. We talked about the decision to let the wall of the heart, ATField, collapse after Shinji completely despaired of himself and mankind, making it impossible for mankind to survive. The form of the body Then what is the human being after losing the container? It turns out that this is LCL - the essence of life can also be called a quantized human form. Some kind of red liquid similar to blood is also a sea of souls. LCL is also a sea of souls, but it is not the same thing. After the end, Shinji Ikari exists as a soul, but in the conversation with Rei Ayanari, we learned that although we are omniscient and omnipotent, we are not happy because of it. How does the world of LCL feel "it's all things that I hate", but we miss the time when people were independent individuals because I miss the days when I was with you all again, so I have the hope that "people may be able to understand each other and I like you" and I want to see you all again...
In the end, Ikari Shinji's mother, Yui, who talked to Mr. Fuyutsuki during his lifetime, revealed the true meaning of EVA's existence: "People can only survive on this planet, but EVA can survive forever... Then The proof that human beings have existed will remain forever." I think the mother who was holding little Shinji said such a statement. The mother's love in it is also beyond doubt. So this is the origin of the title of "EVA: For You" and meaning
