The loneliest time

After watching it about seven or eight times, I realized what the AT force field and human completion plan in EVA are. The AT force field is the gap between people and people's hearts. Because of this gap, human individuals feel lonely. The purpose of the Human Completion Plan is to eliminate this gap and make human beings a more unified and unique living body. In order to get back to his wife who disappeared in the EVA, Ikari Gendo decided to start his own human completion plan, and then merged with his wife. But in the end, Ikari Gendo's completion plan stopped before the self-awakening Rei Ayanami. As the soul of the second apostle Lilith, Ayanari finally chose to let Shinji Ikari complete the completion plan in his heart. Between making all Earthlings eliminate the AT force field into one body, and maintaining the status quo scattered all over the world, Shinji Ikari chose the latter. Before driving the EVA, Shinji lived a life without parents and surrounded by others, and his extremely lonely childhood experience made him seem so powerless in dealing with the relationship between people. While driving the EVA, he gradually established friendship and ambiguous relationships with others, which made him feel the warmth of getting along with others through barriers. in solitude. Nonetheless, he finally chose to let humans exist in the form of isolated individuals. If I were Shinji, only when I saw that all the human beings in the world were integrated into one body, so I knew all the thoughts and thoughts of human beings, would I realize that when human beings can communicate and understand each other smoothly and without hindrance It is the loneliest time for human beings, because at that time, there is only yourself in the world. When we are separated from each other, there is a desire to understand others and to be understood by others. With this desire, we can make behaviors that warm each other. Under the condition that we know we are both human beings, but we cannot understand each other no matter what, even a little understanding and recognition will give us these broken lives a sense of comfort. Therefore, don't delusionally think that people can understand each other, because after understanding each other, human beings will only be lonelier. Moreover, it is still very interesting to try each other's delusions and understand each other's approaching and parting process.
