The final episode also will take the unusual route of unfolding fully inside of what seems to be the planet inside Shinji’s head. In spite of the story unfolding only as a result of monologues and discussions among people, the directing does a good career sustaining the higher rigidity. The subtitle "The Beast That Shouted Love at the Heart of the World" is from a tale by American sci-fi creator Harlan Ellison (1934 - ) of the very same title.
