: Yes, it's easy to jump from the excessive reactions (*) to that
scene to the
: Highest Systems of Philosophy. Still, reality containing a lot of
unpleasant

the
: scene might have a "politically correctness" feeling, but finding
the scene
: disgusting on a personal level certainly isn't wrong.

: (*) I mean, ok, you people don't like that scene, don't vent it on

This is a criticism/gut reaction to Sadamoto's storytelling in Eva
manga.
To me it indicates that he is running short of ideas, going for
shock-horror like that.
Toji's situation was realistic & Kaji's was inventive. Kaworo's action
is of a writer running out of long term plot . 6 dry months, stuck at
a crossroads?
Maybe the remainder is left to readers' imaginations.
