|comment=I've read translated Japanese articles that | |comment=Apropos of the discussion of the murderous Aum Shinrikyo cult in [[FGC:Episode 21 Cut 019|Cut 019]] I've read translated Japanese articles that talk of how Aum gained substantial popularity among the Japanese intelligentsia and on college campuses in the late 1980s and actively recruited all over the Japanese academic scene. That makes me think Gendo was recruited by Seele at the lower levels, far from the occult secrets, and married Yui in order to gain a quick path to the top as a social climber. Maybe he was tired of being beat up in bars and wanted to make himself one of the glitterati? If so, it'd make Gendo's own ascension in social rank something of a gender subversion. Social climbing through marriage has historically been associated with women in many cultures and continues to do so in romance novels marketed to straight women - it's apparently one of the reasons why works as dreadful as ''Twilight'' and ''Fifty Shades of Grey'' got so popular.}} | ||
