As an important project for the 20th anniversary of Neon Genesis Evangelion, a Spear of Longinus will be thrust into the moon to recreate the famous scene in the TV version where Unit 0 fights the 15th Angel Bird Angel. This news has recently become a hot topic. The official wants to use a cake fork, er, no, the official EVA wants to raise 100 million yen just to insert a miniature model of the Spear of Longinus into the moon. And whether this plan can succeed is another matter. Now the project members of the plan said that they are afraid that the plan to insert the Spear of Longinus into the moon will stimulate the Middle Eastern extremist organization ISIS, and it is uncertain whether this plan can be realized. When EVA officials first said that they were going to put the Spear of Longinus on the moon, all EVA fans were very excited. But when the official announcement was made that the Spear of Longinus that was actually put on the moon was only 24cm, many netizens were really shocked. Some people even said that this was basically sending garbage to the moon. On February 3, the project team members of EVA's piercing the moon plan said: "We have also seen discussions and criticisms about this plan on social networks, but the current Japanese law does not prohibit us from doing so. Of course, no civil society group has obtained the authorization of the Japanese government to pierce the moon. We will promote this plan to be realized." On February 3, the project team members still supported this plan. On the next day, on February 4, a blog called "Research Institute of Space Engineering" published an article firmly opposing EVA's piercing the moon plan, and it was reprinted and quoted by Japanese news media. The article mainly opposed this plan based on religious factors. The article said: "In reality, the Spear of Longinus is a Christian relic and is highly revered, but the moon is also one of the sacred symbols of Islam. EVA's Piercing the Moon project is equivalent to using a Christian relic to pierce an Islamic totem, which may cause religious problems." After the article came out, when reporters went to interview the project members of EVA's Piercing the Moon project, their attitude changed. They said: "We have believed from the beginning that the content of the animation has nothing to do with religious disputes, but now the committee is discussing this plan. It is unclear whether this plan can continue in the future." Japanese economic analyst Takuro Morinaga, who is well-known as an EVA fan, also said that although he was very happy to hear about this plan, he still didn't understand the significance of the Piercing the Moon project, and felt that this plan was completely unpredictable. Although EVA has many fans all over the world, I am still worried that this project will be misunderstood as a kind of blasphemy of Christianity against Islam, and even Islamic countries will think that Japan has "joined the Crusades". The worst case scenario is that Islamic countries will regard Japan as an enemy country, and even stimulate extreme terrorist organizations in the Middle East, giving them an excuse to attack Japan and the Japanese. "So the question is, should this project that intends to raise 100 million yen be carried out or not? |
