Reply to comment by angry_jotaro in Philosophy is everywhere in Neon Genesis Evangelion by linosan

Make sense, I agree there's a lot to dive in specially when it comes to shinji

I noticed you wrote the article, it's pretty good keep it up! And maybe also write one on monster? It's not as philosophical as Evangelion but definitely a philosophical anime, Johan is a very interesting character to study.

Out of curiosity, did you refer to the evas as robots for simplicity’s sake?

Yes, it was just for the sake of simplicity. I wasn't sure whether it would be good to explain what Evas are or not as the first paragraph was already getting long enough and this wasn't the article's intention (or it would take too long until the reader reaches the actual theme of the article), so I just refered to them as fighting robots believing this would be bo problem (unless it was a full Evangelion's analysis; if this was the case, of course it wouldn't be possible to do so).

Always good to put something like "let's call them robots for now" at the start of the article. Avoids the "ActHuAlLy" ppl
