This movie or the series of "Neon Genesis Evangelion", one of the most famous IPs in the Japanese ACG class, is really often seen and often new. I started watching the old-fashioned movie when I was in elementary school, whether it was the TV version or the theater version for so many years Have watched it countless times since.

When I was a child, I just watched cartoons and watched a refreshing battle scene. When I was in middle school, I watched Eva's handsome, and high school watched Rei Ayanami... When I was in college, I finally started to think that Hikaru Utada's ending song was really super nice...

Times have changed, and now it's time to find out and find out more about the father-son relationship between Ikari Shinji and Commander Ikari. The generation who grew up under the influence of traditional East Asian ideology and culture wondered if they realized or doubted why the father's image was always as silent and cold as Commander Ikari; why the father always spoke to his son in an imperative tone; why If parents insist on doing something that a child doesn't want to do, there is no room for rejection; why can you treat girls with love and care and be as cold as ice for boys...

Ikari Shinji is only a 14-year-old child. It was the nature of human beings to be timid and to resist when he saw such a major scene for the first time. It was human nature to be timid and to resist. What he needed most at this time was actually encouragement and patience rather than coldness or even cruelty. Because even if only Ikari Shinji can operate the first machine, just as young people who are about to enter the social work have to face unknown challenges, they are already at a loss and helpless. The family can't give a sense of security at this time, so they can only accumulate setbacks because of constant setbacks. Feelings of gain or loss because of fear of failure and punishment.

Why not be a little more patient. Probably because Commander Ikari didn't realize that he should regard his son as an existence equal to himself in personality, and just regarded his son as a vassal - the price he paid was to give birth to a son, a son. Naturally, it is necessary to give corresponding compensation, not because he and his wife are in love with each other and want to continue this love - although Commander Ikari's love for Yui made him use Yui's genes to create a humanoid named Ayanami Rei , and Commander Ikari knows that Ayanari is replaceable and will protect Ayanari at all costs (although there is a role in preventing spoilers in "Preface"), but it is still a relationship of use, that is, because the only gene can be used. Restricted use, so you can create Ayanami Rei who can continue to be used for her own use without any scruples, but also obedient. It is precisely because Rei Ayanari is "easy to use" that Commander Ikari is reluctant to lose her, and does not like her own son who has her own subjective emotions. How selfish. If the matter of giving birth is considered purely from the perspective of self-interest, it is actually the beginning of a series of chain tragedies. It is a pity that the relationship between use and being used is left.
