>>467795In my opinion evangelion didn't claim that either, it was made by some depressed guy who just thought christian symbolism looked cool. Someone can just as well say you need to read Jung's philosophy and study kabbalah in order to understand characters and symbolism in evangelion and it would be just as silly. Many people claim they found the ending of the end of evangelion cathartic too. I don't see any difference between evangelion fans telling you you don't get it and jojo fans telling someone they don't get it, it's both dumb. I believe that works of art speak to people unconsciously, and it either speaks to you or it doesn't. You can't change that. If someone has an opinion that diavolo is a shit villain it's dumb to say that they only dislike him because they didn't understand the symbolism and didn't listen the playlist required to understand a fictional character, because the work should speak for itself
On a personal note I found part 6 to be lacking and I didn't find anything in it relatable, and also I don't need the characters and their action to be relatable in order for me to appreciate them. Relatability is like one of the least important factors on my list. Shit part.
