    I’d say it skews towards Kabbalah, which is Jewish Mysticism. The sefirot/ tree of life even shows up End of Evangelion. But then again

    seems like a pretty clear Jesus allegory!

      Anno has flat out said that Eva’s religious imagery was just an esthetic. If it’s based on any myth, it’s his fandom of Ultraman.

        I’m aware of that, I just wanted to share where he got some of the imagery!

      Yep, got my flavours of Judaism mixed-up.
