Who does Ikari in EVA really like?

Makoto Ikari likes Ayanami Rei in EVA.

In EVA, Shinji Ikari is the protagonist of this story, and also the driver of the initial EVA aircraft. Extremely introverted, I have always liked Ayanami Rei. I am extremely afraid of contact with strangers, afraid that I don't know how to get along with others, just live according to the requirements of others, and then slowly open my heart. "Ai" means anchor in Japanese, and "Shinji" comes from Shinji Higuchi and is the photography director of this work.

Evaluation of works:

EVA is a typical robot animation from the beginning, and the story focuses on describing battle scenes and character dialogues. As the plot goes on, the story gradually becomes a psychoanalytic narrative of the inner world of the characters, especially at the end.

In this film, the revolutionary strong stream of consciousness technique and the use of a large number of religious and philosophical images have had a great response and influence in Japan and become a milestone in the history of Japanese animation. Many animators often regard it as one of the greatest animations in Japanese history.
