> sky rains blood

This reminds me of Neon Genesis Evangelion.

Of course, no one realized (at least publicly) that it is a metaphor for "everyone claps at the end" (also the ending of the original series).

Sound of rain sounds like an audience clapping. "Blood rain" means real claps, not some fake condescending simulacra of it.

"So that is how democracy dies? With thunderous applause." is also a reference to the same metaphor.

Both movies relate to the theme of sacrifice, worthiness, humanity survival.

Are you guys are too much into giant robots to even notice those things?
