Title says it all.
Now, we know that Neon Genesis Evangelion is filled with Christian ideas and references. However, what do you think of Hideaki Anno's vision for them? Blasphemous? Intriguing? Why? (NOTE: Christianity is not very common in Japan; in fact, the entire staff who actually worked on NGE was not even Christian)
Personally, I have found Anno's use of Christian references to be more on the intriguing side. Why? Well, I like new and interesting spins to anything, be it something based on a book, ideas from a culture, personal issues, etc. But of course, I'm not going to worship his ideas. That would be silly.
What do you guys think?
