I looked at it with the mentality of admiring the work of God, but was greatly disappointed.
The most important aspect is that I feel that many issues are not clearly explained, and many contents need to be connected by various background knowledge. In the 20 minutes × 26 episodes of the work itself, the clues provided are very limited, or in other words, this animation, as a complete story, has an extremely low degree of completion, which is equivalent to no ending. (I think if you really want to fully present the content of many analysis posts, the number of works should at least double).
The second aspect is that deep religious themes are not very appealing to me per se. If the final conclusion is "useful" for everyone, or if the conclusion makes sense in "common sense", then I think it can be reluctantly accepted. However, a. get rid of human imperfection and pursue "becoming a god", b. implement "human completion" by completely destroying the body and fuse the soul, c. take the "Dead Sea Scrolls" left over from ancient times as a standard of unknown provenance "The looming fatalism revealed in this act. . . Not to my liking.
