Welcome to Maid Spin, the personal website of iklone. I write about about otaku culture as well as history, philosophy and mythology.
My interests range from anime & programming to mediaevalism & navigation. Hopefully something on this site will interest you.
I'm a devotee of the late '90s / early '00s era of anime, as well as a steadfast lover of maids. My favourite anime is Mahoromatic. I also love the works of Tomino and old Gainax.

The final point of the infamous last two episodes of Evangelion are that one should learn to be comfortable with hurting others rather than always letting the expectations and desires of others guide their actions.
Shinji learns that he can act upon his own wants and act selfishly sometimes, since making himself happy will, in turn, make those around him happy also. If someone blames another for looking out for their own interests, they are at fault instead of the perpetrator since it is everyone's primary responsibility to look out for themselves rather.
Hating yourself for your own self is not an excuse for attempting to alter your self, sometimes it can be necessary but should only be attempted through an active decision to do so. Otherwise it will cause you to lose your original form and you will be unable to regain your true self. This in turn is improper to your ancestors and teachers who you have grown up with.
Try sometimes to be outspoken and to relay your true beliefs, rather that portraying an facade attempting to fulfil the implied motives of others. While it may sate someone's expectations, it is always better to exceed or subvert them in a way in line with your own self. Those who harbour resent for those actions that come from your heart, are themselves in the wrong, not you.
[Image lost. Cap of Rei, Asuka and Misato standing over Shinji from ep25.]One is never able to fully live up to others' expectations when constraining oneself completely to those peoples' own paradigms.
