: > To Discuss: Is anyone truly evil in EVA?
:
: That requires a definition of evil in relation with this show.
Considering
: the main topic is the necessity, right and duty to accept life and
live
: through pain in hope of finding happiness (where "to live" is
defined as to
: interact with others who define our self as much as we define
theirs), the
: only party in the show that has an open plan to refuse life and deny
it on
: planetary scale is Seele, who seek to avoid the pain of life as
interaction
: by eliminating interaction through the return to the original Source
of
: Life, a single and lone being who has no other to interact with.

Ironically, while Shinji re-boots misery on Earth, because its the
only situation he knows & therefore can come to terms with, Yui in Eva
01, floating in space for eternity, is like a part-achievement of
SEELE's plan, a token version of what SEELE wanted for the whole of
humanity.

But if SEELE's motives were purely scientific in boosting the
d/evolution of mankind to its ultimate state, can that be considered
evil, or just amoral?
