The replies are full of people telling me and everyone about how this film brought them to (happy) tears and made them want to hug tightly their loved ones.

To the people who told me Rebuild is "meaningless" and will be forgotten as soon as it ends:
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
I'm not kidding when I said Thrice Upon a Time is a monumental art. This is what art is.
Not that I see people who didn't like it as "wrong". Rebuild is FAR from perfect, but I've seen way too many bad faith takes and discussions about it that made me doubt my ability in interpreting art, but seeing so many people sharing the similar views makes me feel validated.
In the end, it's about how it makes us feel, how much it resonates in us, and the lasting effect it has on us. 3+1 did all that.

I'm happy that I was blessed with a mind that's equipped to process the things it said to me in good faith.

[THE MYTHICIZATION OF RYOJI KAJI IN THE REBUILD OF EVANGELION TETRALOGY, or "Fucking hell, You made Kubrick and Tarkovski easier to comprehend than this, Anno"]

This is it, this will be my biggest #Evangelion thread ever. I don't think I can surpass myself anymore at this point.
At first, his reintroduction is what he expected. He's still the same ol' Kaji who seems to have stuff going on in the background, but still the same old Ultimate Guy we know from NGE.

It's predictable, but also comforting to know he hasn't changed.

Yet.
#Evangelion
And this is where his story diverges from NGE, and became the groundwork for everything that came after; him inviting the kids to visit the marine life preservation facility which, from what I can tell, would then become the hope known as Wille.
