What is a soul?
Think back to the last story that stayed with you long after it ended — the kind that leaves you strangely deflated, like you weren’t ready to say goodbye. The stories we remember most aren’t obsessed with explosions or spectacle, but with invisible things: loneliness, shame, love, memory, and the desire to be seen.
In this philosophy video essay, I explore what a soul is by tracing the idea from ancient Hebrew thought and Greek philosophy, through medieval Christian theology, and into modern storytelling. Along the way, I use Neon Genesis Evangelion as a case study — a series that looks like a mecha anime on the surface, but is really about fragile, wounded people searching for meaning, identity, and connection.
We live in a culture that often calls itself materialistic, claiming that only what can be measured is real. And yet the stories we pay for and cry over refuse to act that way. They insist that the invisible is real — that a human being is more than a biological machine.
You can call that depth consciousness, inner life, or personhood.
Or you can call it what people have called it for thousands of years: a soul.
If you enjoy thoughtful explorations of anime, mythology, philosophy, and symbolism, consider subscribing and joining me on this journey through the logos in stories!
