Why Is Evangelion’s FINALE so Difficult to Discuss?

Between video versions, releases, a thickening plot, and mistranslations, navigating through the conclusion of Neon Genesis Evangelion can be a daunting task. But thanks to my LCL-induced stupor, I may be able to lead us through it. Join me as we look at Evangelion's infamous flashback episode, investigate what exactly happened to Ryoji Kaji, and understand some of the show's notoriously difficult finale.
