>>3554663>-How do you personally interpret the new information we learn about Kaworu in Shin?Ishida: There's not much in the way of interpretation I can add here.
Though I was pleased with the skillful way the name "Nagisa" was explained in the movie.
I always thought the Nagisa in his name was linked to the subtitle of episode 24 in the TV series, "The Final Messenger". To think from the very beginning there was always another nuance to his name...I find it amazing they waited to reveal this information from us all this time up to now.
>-With Shin concluding this 4-part Rebuild series, what are your final thoughts on the story in its entirety? Ishida: I don't think there's anyone out there that denies we live our lives by steadily and naturally growing. In the first place, it's because we hardly realize we're changing bit by bit that we're able to live such peaceful lives. Though I personally can very much relate to those who have doubts about the rightness in the decisions they make and having immediate negative reactions to any spontaneous changes that might occur in their lives.
At the very least, it made me aware I'm an ultraconservative person.
