Short for details lol As to why you feel it isn't compatible, I don't just accept no, I need reasoning.

Simple. There's nothing in NTE that even alludes to the theory you've created, which, quite frankly, i find even more out there and outlandish than fem-Kaworu

I'm really tempted to move this to fanfics, but there's a more natural home for it right here already.

I didn't want to put it here cause it's about a compatible timeline, not about whether it's a sequel or not.

It looked entirely like a fanfic to me, and doesn't even seem to follow the rules you laid down. You said: "PLEASE, only talk about what you see in film and television" but followed that immediately with: "Mari is created during EoE". Wut?

Calling the contents of Chaddy's post a "theory" is probably much too generous. (Why fem-Kaworu, though? Aren't there enough insane ideas that are actually still being advocated to choose from? :p )

@ PW
You're reasonable, why fanfic?

Well on the impression of what I think she is, it certainly feels like that. And with the way she was introduced in the preview at the end of 1.0, with the crapload of exploding crosses, makes it seem like she came out at the right time to be tang'd like Lilith did to rest of humanity in EoE.

Your probably right. Sequel/timeloop theory i think would be the better choice.

If this:

is in any way reminiscent to you of EoE, then I think your matching criteria are very, very weak.

I meant better in that it makes even less sense than FK

Hey Guys, can you talk about what gaps there are in my idea? Like saying it's fanfic doesn't do it for me, does anyone actually have the energy to talk to me about it?
