A Truly Unique Formula- a subjective finale
|
No movie or television show in the entertainment industry has done what Hideaki Anno has done with the finale of Evangelion. What the director attempted- and succeeded- was to compose a conclusion from which the viewers can draw multiple "truths".It is designed to go along with the moral lesson of the series- that people should think for themselves and not always depend on others for answers.
For example, one view is that the closing scene indicates that Shinji has broken free and has chosen to continue living in the real world rather than the fake paradise of Instrumentality. This conclusion can also be arrived at by studying the similarity of dialogue between the series' conclusion and the theatrical conclusion (in which Shinji also rejects Instrumentality). Again, however, it is left up to the viewer.
Another complex plot factor is the enigmatic character Kaworu Nagisa. In more than one instance, he behaves in a manner that seems to indicate homosexuality, yet the creators insist that he is not. So why does he act the way he does? The evidence makes it rather simple: Kaworu apparently loves Shinji- along with all humanity- unconditionally. He is also the "final messenger" of Adam, and he has been incarnated in human form. Finally, Kaworu gives his life for the sake of humankind. Ring a bell?
Given this evidence as well as the fact that Evangelion takes hints from Christianity, it would make sense to conclude that Kaworu's role was inspired by Jesus Christ. |
