>>4421827The awakened man's interpretation of Asuka is not merely a cartoon (as surface level observation suggests), nor as a comforting nor motherly figure (like the classical "waifu" designation implies), but rather a 21st century incarnation of the combined war/love goddess archetype that is so frequently found across the combined human pantheon. An archetype meant to inspire rabid passion, sexuality, conquest, and aggression by demanding Penelopean levels of fealty paired with Herculean feats of conquest. Truly a modern day Ishtar, or perhaps a Bellona-Hera hybrid if you wish for Greco-Roman analogies.
