On second thoughts I feel now that's it's better that people don't like Evangelion, meaning they can't relate to show therefore they're probably sane people and that's better for them (i.e unlike me). Depends on the kind of "not liking". The topic title mentions "hate". Somehow ...

Where have you run into people like this? On EvaGeeks? The problem sounds unfamiliar to me. If not here, then you're not going to get a useful answer posting here. You want to ask the actual people you're talking about. When you can just ask "some people" directly, there's absolutely no ne...

Some additional information on storyboard material that was scrapped, linked from the stickied 2.0 CRC thread. http://forum.evageeks.org/post/439425/Eva-2XX-Storyboards-vs-Final/ This thread itself can probably be merged with a previous one that discusses the "Great Asuka Rip-Off" but I'm ...

I'll take another look at it. Thanks for pointing this out.

It has two.

The green thing on the helmet is noted as being an antenna in the production drawings.

I don't want to get too hopeful over a machine translation The language used is extremely generic promo material stuff. It's designed to sound like it's saying something profound, when in fact it's not really saying much of anything at all. The pilots are trying to figure themselves out? Humans are...

Merged the two topics about this anime which were right next to each other in Everything Else.

TraxXavier: You haven't established causality between core and ATF. Being "Adam-based" or not is beside the point. You're starting with an assumption and discarding anything that doesn't fit, instead of starting with observations from the show and discarding ideas that don't fit. >About Ar...

TraxXavier : There's no established causality between "core" and "ATF". Armisael and Lilith can generate ATFs but neither of them have a discrete core. Bardiel generates a core inside Eva-03's entry plug, which implies that prior to parasitization it did not have one. And so on....

Frankly, I never bought that berserk mode was the Evas' true natures coming out, or that dummy plugs actually exterted any control other than initiating it. I'm not quite sure what you mean by this. Yui explicitly rejects the dummy plug in episode 19, which doesn't make a whole lot of sense unless ...

When an Eva goes berserk, it's not the bestial core of the Eva being freed or anything like that. It's a mother protecting her child . Eva-00 would like a word with you. :wink: I am still not really convinced that the Evas don't have some sort of inherent combat skills, natural or via genetic engin...

I feel like Yui is the "scientist" aspect of the "three faces of mother" whereas Rei (via her soul within Eva 00) is "woman" and Kyoko is "mother." This doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. This is clearly a reference to Naoko's programming schematic for ...

Here's the thread that made this an infamous finding in the first place:

thread/9190/The-Dummy-Systems-Backwards-Message-MESSAGE-FOUND

@Adam Malkovich: Eva-00 has a soul, and I believe you mean Eva-03 and not -05. @thread: I don't buy into the idea that the Eva's 'bestial consciousness' is something truly innate and unavoidable, like it's some hidden secret nature being released. For one thing, think about what the Evas are cloned ...

Yeah, "Design: Ikuto Yamashita".

To absolutely nobody's surprise.

A new plugsuit doesn't really make sense if there's not even enough time to fix Eva-08's arms. Props from me as well for noticing the strings, El Mariachi. I'd been wondering why 08 was just tumbling through the sky... This still leaves the question open of what, if anything, she's supposed to be sh...

Any new info in it? Can't make it out in its entirety, but I could maybe make out these couple of things: - "...when fretting over some individual design, a retake -- with spec alterations to go along with plot changes -- emerges against all reason..." - "...an image I nearly don't b...

@ Gendo's Papa : That's extremely plausible. I venture you're right about most or all. The complete removal of Eva-08's arms doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. Looking at the end of Q, the corrosion in the arms is not only arrested, it's completely gone. They seem a little wounded, but that's...

Well, when you don't have Nerv's budget, you gotta make the best with what you have We know they have "budget", though -- you've seen New Eva-02, haven't you? That is (effectively, given level of damage) completely replacing and outfitting a destroyed Eva. Replacing a pair of arms is noth...

Well that's disappointingly atrotious.
