It's all Gnosticism. Akio is the demiurge, lord and creator of an illusory microcosm. Anthy is Sophia, the well-intentioned mother deity whose actions unfortunately led to the creation of the demiurge. The aforementioned "illusory microcosm" is a triple parallel, it's the school itself, false conception of what adulthood is, and a prison that prevents one from growing up (both by their own actions and by the actions of others upon them). There is a direct reference to Abraxas in the show (the Student Council's elevator speech music is called "-that God's name is Abraxas", which is a continuation of the quote from Demian that the show references).

Personality/Habits/Hobbies/Behavior:
>/lit/ spends much of his time discussing literature with varying degrees of civility. Lesser-known or genuinely good books tend to be treated with respect, while mainstream titles or awful artists are endlessly derided. Mentioning Ayn Rand around him will result in a very passionate tirade about how she was a fool or a genius, usually creating such a commotion that you will be b&.

Relationships:
>/lit/ sees himself as the most intelligent or enlightened board and refuses to dabble in other subjects. This snobbery and his extremely narrow repertoire of interests distance him from much of the site, which he enjoys very much.

So Rei is basically thought of to be the the Dna of Yui imprinted on Lilith. She's a clone, but her character arc is about individuation, reconciling if she is real or not. It's best explained in terms of Hinduism. Rei is supposed to embody the atman that resides within all of us. In a sense, we are all clones of consciousness that emanate from the Brahman.

This growth of Rei throughout the series reflects the nominalist perspective. Rei individuation is akin to Occam's razor shaving off the excess form of Yui and thus becoming Lilith or one with the Brahman. Likewise, we cannot experience the platonic world, only the material. There are no forms, only individual vessels of what you may call the platonic being. Rei's name means 0, as in she does not exist but as an individual emanation of God.

>> No.18713312

>>18713260
Honestly I didn't put this much thought into it, I just like Rei because I think her personality is endearing, her struggles with identity and will are interesting and I like the moon theme. She has a nice voice too.
If Rei is the atman, what is Asuka? If Rei is dissolution, is Asuka pure individuation?
I don't believe there is an actual realm of forms and I don't think Plato did either, I just think universals exist, that's all.

>> No.18713556

>>18713312
Asuka? I believe she also is the Atman. The difference between the two has to do with how they deal with ego death. I haven't really thought abou Asuka much.

The main problem I have with Plato is that he thinks the world of forms to be an actually realm when in reality he's actually refering to the Brahman. The "existence" of universals becomes problematic if the Brahman is the only thing that exists. Forms are derived from the Brahman. Universals can be thought about and are certainly helpful to us but I'm still moved that only Brahman itself truly exists.

That's seen to be a good thing in eastern religion, right?
And since Plato refutes himself in Parmenides I'm pretty sure he didn't think the world of the forms existed and probably didn't even subscribe to the theory of forms as expounded in his dialogues.

NGE is alright, better than most media nowadays. That being said, it is way way less complex than it likes to present itself with all of the retarded fucking symbolism and pseudo-freudian shit. It doesn't help that anons have created a cult of aesthetics around it that makes it look like it has some super secret esoteric knowledge driving it forward (for example the Hegel/NGE memes). There are a lot of better works of art out there (and even better/deeper animes), pretty much anything by the Greek Tragedians btfos everything made past the year 1900.

The tree of life is supposed to show how the wholeness of God (the top circle) is able to emanate and branch out so that we (the bottom dot) are able to percieve and revel in God's greatness. It bears similarity to Gnosticism, Vedanta, and all sorts of other religions and philosophies including platonism.

How does it relate to NGE? Well, broadly speaking it's about the transcendance of humanity into a singularity. Yes, the tree of life is there for symbolism but doesn't really dramatically steer the plot, it just sets the theme. This was very general and simplified but it gets the point across.
