So here just talk about any anime that you consider was deep and thought provoking and more or less just say what points made that stick out for you, I choose NGE
I've yet to actually meet someone who understands the true meaning of the thing, and knowing that this was a creation of Hideki Anno, you never really know what it could mean.
I've seen the anime way more times then I should have, and spent to much time on the thing myself, I've spent the most insane amount of time watching the last second half of the end of EVA movie. From all the hidden meaning and such, especially with that one playground scene which I don't fully understand myself, I was able to muster up the smallest conclusion of just the second half of the final movie.
Shinji was in fact like this world's successor of god, and when the egg of Lillith was opened and the souls were all sent into the afterlife one stayed. That was His mother's soul I think, mainly from the last few scenes is were I got that idea. They were the last two souls, so they were forced to kinda restart the human race on their own, ya ya I know it's nasty, but it had to be done...and I'm not entirely sure that final soul was of his mother alone for the pure fact that Rei and Asuka were seen with him in that "world" he created himself.
I know Shinji wouldn't have any real problem dealing with the idea of doing his mom, because of that kiss that he ended up getting from you know who. For some reason though I always thought that she did that in a sort of "this is the last thing I can do to save you" mentality. Even though it did really screw Shinji up even more. So I was thinking that the process of recreating the world under God's power didn't work because of his willingness to do that with the people that he saw as mother figures. So in the end it was kinda like God's backup plan to go ahead and end the human races chances of living because of that, so that is why Shinji had to stay inside of EVA unit one for all of eternity as not only a sign that mankind had existed and done great things, but that also that mankind had grown so corrupt as to be able to end it's own world.
Ack, enough of my ranting. If anyone really didn't get any of that...don't see why most people would ^_^; this is more or less what I type
1)Shinji was chosen to renew the world
2)People he saw as mother figures ended up liking him
3)When he finally asked Asuka for help and she said no, it could have driven him crazy.
4) Shinji was able to open the egg of Lillith under the fact that he thought he could save humanity
5)All the facts that had been brought up in episodes 1-24 are more or less useless now
6)We all die, Shinji gets screwed with the task of being a marker for other races.
So those are just my little rants on what I thought was the deepest anime that I've ever seen...now lets not turn this into a EVA thread. Just a thread on why you thought your anime was deep.^^;
