Neon Genesis Evangelion is the kind of anime that’s best defined by its abstractions and surrealism rather than by a concrete narrative. Even if Hideaki Anno’s most famous work of art had unsubtle messages, a clear structure and deep character journeys, it can’t be “understood” in the way that conventional anime can be.This, however, did not deter fans from trying to make sense of everything in the anime. To this day, there are some odd details and events that can’t be brushed aside by the anime’s abstract nature. These may not be plot holes that threaten to ruin or even dent Neon Genesis Evangelion’s legacy, but they’ve been bugging fans for almost 30 years.Some fans theorized that Gendo did this so that the world’s governments wouldn’t realize how literally unnatural the Eva Units were when compared to an actual robot like Jet Alone. Others hypothesized that NERV simply didn’t want competition. For now, Gendo’s vendetta against Jet Alone seems nonsensical, excessive and unintentionally hilarious.
