Human Instrumentality has arrived! Will Shinji accept or reject its call? Also… what in the heck is it anyway? We’ll explore all this and so much more in our final installment of this series analysis! Misato’s shame, Asuka’s loneliness, Shinji’s self-hatred, and Rei’s uhhh… whole being a weird doll clone thing issue. All of it gets resolved by HUMAN INSTRUMENTALITY.
We’ll also discuss these final episodes as a textbook case for the merits of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, awakening the human consciousness for a new Earth in the style of Eckhart Tolle, the overlaps of Anno’s ego breaking animated journey of the self with modern existentialist writer’s like Samuel Beckett and more brainy stuff. It’s a doozy of a ride. Hope it’s worth the wait!
