For a lot of people, Neon Genesis Evangelion

Gainax and the gray matter spawn of creator Hideaki Anno or Anno

airing over a five month period starting late 1995.

They follow several characters, most notably

Shinji Ikari, Rei Ayanami, and Asuka Langley Soryu as they

robots in the defense of Earth against truly

terrifying eldritch abominations called Angels.

The arrangement of big robots versus giant monsters

makes NGE technically a part of the anime genre called Mecha.

So compare it to things like Macross, Gurren Lagann, and Big

O except then don't, because Evangelion is

Where many Mecha animes are all gung ho, kill the bad guys,

And it confronts the psychological pressure

no less, who are tasked with saving the world.

Characters have nervous breakdowns and struggle

that Evangelion is meaningless, just not in the way

Derrida says that there is nothing outside the text.

He doesn't mean that when interpreting a work,

you shouldn't use information external to the work itself,

but that everything, every communication,

nothing outside the text, because everything is the text.

Now text is troubling because it doesn't really contain meaning.

It's just a bunch of little symbols and noises

meaning that everything is at least a little ambiguous.

In other words, to communicate, you have to use representation.

You go through, quote, "a detour of signs".
