SF Online Interview with Hagio (Part III-3)

Neon Genesis Evangelion Vol. 3 DVD Cover(Continued)

Hagio:

In that story, each episode shows mysterious monsters called "Angels" being sent in, one by one. For some reason they target the same spot each time, and people fight back. But those various parts of the backbone [of the story], things you wonder why as you watch, are all left unexplained. I didn't expect that even by the very end, you wouldn't get an explanation.

Mizutama:

Ah, such questions—you would still have a lot of them after watching the theatrical releases.

Hagio:

That father, was he a spy in the end?

Sakai:

No, not really. (laugh)

Mizutama:

That father, he just wanted to find happiness for himself. (laugh)

Hagio:

Who were those shadowy people who controlled the father from behind the scenes?

Sakai:

You mean "Seele?" I am not sure, either. In the end, you don't find out anything.

Hagio:

Oh, really.
