Something I noticed: Gendo nonchalantly watches Rei’s arm disintegrate and fall off by its tendrils with a bored, indifferent gaze. He is long past the point of concern. He sexually assaults Rei after her arm falls off, seeking a fusion between Lilith and Adam by forcing his hand through Rei’s breast and womb-vagina.
Rei retaliates by severing Gendo’s Adam-arm from him. He recoils as Rei “takes back” the thing she has lost - with Gendo’s arm inside her, Rei regenerates a fully functional arm as Gendo clutches the bleeding stump that remains of his sexual assault.
According to the Lilith & Adam tradition in Jewish folklore, tension plagued Adam and Lilith after Adam tried to sexually dominate Lilith. When Lilith refused to lay beneath Adam during sex, Lilith escaped the Garden of Eden seeking independence. In retaliation, Lilith stole the seed of Adam.

“Although she doesn’t easily speak her true feelings, I loved the manner by which Misato hid the loneliness and darkness deep within her heart. After the TV series ended, I listened to Cruel Angel’s Thesis again and was struck by the lyric “Although I cannot become a goddess, I will live on.”
Surely this must be the voice of Misato’s heart.

Drowning in the sound is a really good rose song
OoT Ganon (before puberty smacked him around with the bara stick)
I always picture him at this age as the most spoiled precocious shit baby. I keep getting reminded that the witch sisters Twinrova raised him, so I’m honestly surprised he turned out as pleasant as he did.
Getting hit with some real nostalgia watching Evangelion on Netflix so I drew some badge designs✨✨
The Hero of the Gerudo
I have an awful theory about Ganondorf that’s been bothering me lately, so I thought I’d share.
Essentially, Ganondorf may have been bred as a weapon and then discarded once he completed his function.
Perhaps the most quintessential element of the “legend of Zelda” passed down through the Hylian royal line is that a hero always appears to save Hyrule when the kingdom is threatened. What if the Gerudo have their own version of the legend? Namely, what if one of the rare Gerudo males is born whenever the tribe is in danger of being attacked by a hostile outside force? If this is the case, then it would make perfect sense for the Gerudo to treat the “one male born every hundred years” as their king, as it would be his role to act as a leader in a time of crisis while serving as a symbol of solidarity.
I can imagine that, in a different set of circumstances than the nightmarish conditions that have beset Hyrule at the beginning of Ocarina of Time, the Gerudo hero might be a warrior or a general, but he could just as easily be a diplomat, an explorer, or a revolutionary. Elements of these character traits are present in the various appearances of Ganondorf, after all.
Because the Gerudo are in dire straits during Ocarina of Time, however, it’s not unreasonable to think that the Gerudo male of that era may have been raised in such a way as to ensure that he was filled with hatred and then trained to be absolutely vicious. This might also be why he was placed in the care of two witches skilled in offensive magic and allowed to lead bands of raiders responsible for victimizing the weak.
Nabooru is disgusted by this practice and contends that it’s not normal, and none of the people in Gerudo Valley or the Gerudo’s Fortress seem interested in hurting Link or anyone else. Based on the evidence presented by the player’s actual encounters with Nabooru and other members of the Gerudo, it’s not unreasonable to think that Ganondorf’s behavior is an incredible exception that may have been cultivated either deliberately or by the simple tacit approval of the larger community.
Perhaps Ganondorf was intended only to save the Gerudo by neutralizing the threat of Hyrule as a hostile foreign power. It might therefore be the case that, once he was released into Hyrule as a toxic influence meant to disrupt the monarchy, the Gerudo were glad to be rid of him. Aside from horses and husbands, they appear to have no interest in Hyrule, so they don’t care whether their “king” lives alone in a far-away castle that they never mention, much less visit.
When Zelda calls Ganondorf pathetic at the end of Ocarina of Time, this is what she means – he was obsessed with a kingdom that he both loved and hated, and no one close to him did anything to prevent him from pursuing the most destructive path his life could have possibly taken.
This is so good and so accurate and I’m gonna go lay down now
