The
Final Episode.
The culmination
of our efforts with Eva:R, "How Do You Feel?" was the main goal of the
project from its very inception. The question this episode begs is
one of choice: Can man be selfless in his actions? Can he choose
for the greater good, whilst satisfying his own needs? What of the
self? Is man's desire to change for the better an indication of some
tragic flaw in his being? This question, of course, raises yet another:
the most basic. Is Man inherently good, or evil?
Secondly,
"How Do You Feel?" necessitates its own philosophy. One that has
been carried throughout both Eva and Eva:R. . .In the end, The
world is what you choose to make it. Be you a staunch pessimist
or an undying optimist. Our belief, though, is not stated
outright. Rather, it is mirrored in the events to be found taking
place within the script. It is here, reader, that we beg YOUR interpretation.
Lastly,
The English title for this episode, "A Touch of Reality," was inspired
by the song of the same name (by Sasha Arnkoff). This song, in its entirety,
reflects the full emotional culmination of the our series. It is
also posted here, in eternal gratitude, to Sasha, and to all the people
who made this site possible, as well as to all those who have contributed,
and will contribute, to Evangelion: R and Evangelion: R'.
