Re: Dreams about Evangelion...

I recently dreamed that Scott (Shin-seiki) and I knew the cast of Evangelion, and I had somehow missed a costume party. Scott was razzing me because I missed Rei in a cute cat suit. "With real cat whiskers that she had slowly collected for months as they fell off of a real cat."

Re: How we used to watch (fansubs and camrips)

Shin-seiki used to actually have the infamous Hong Kong fansub/bootleg of EOE that had Asuka proclaiming "I know you only think of me as food!"

Re: Did Rei need Adam's embryo to merge with Lilith's body?

She doesn't need it to merge with Lilith; she needs it to bring about the forbidden union of the two fruits to cause third impact.

The soul in Unit-00 is Rei 1. Wouldn't she come back as Rei 1, not Unit-00?

Re: High resolution chalkboard image

Has that image been cropped for wide-screen since its introduction? That is, is there stuff now unreadable off the top and bottom that we used to see? I seem to remember that "Eye Beams!" used to be on there somewhere.

Re: How bad of a captain was Commander Ikari?

The feeling that Gendo was a terrible commander is based upon what we see of his battle tactics. Misato always sent all three Evas in at once. Gendo sent them in one at a time and they were defeated one at a time. Misato knew Shinji, Rei and Asuka were at their best working together.

Re: Can an Evangelion have the soul of the pilot's father?

All of Shinji's classmates seem to have dead mothers, so I'd say it had to be the mother. Unless of course, my old theory is right. It's generally accepted that the Adam contact experiment that set off Second Impact was with professor Katsuragi. I always believed, I still do, that there must have be...

Re: Why did Asuka think Shinji got fired?

^Or Misato felt that Asuka would refuse to come if she knew Shinji would still be there, so She let her think she was replacing Shinji until after she was moved in.

No. They considered turning her into some kind of werewolf through... Tell us more about this pls This is from a proposal for the movie ending for NGE; fortunately they did EOE instead. Apparently this was so early in the process that they still thought they would just re-do 25 & 26 as director...

Re: Rei still makes me scratch my head

My only caveat with the above is I don't see any need to salvage Kaworu's soul into the embryo; the combining of flesh seems to be what's necessary, Gendo has no way to emotionally control Kaworu like he does Rei and doesn't need the competing will, and Rei is just gonna collect all souls on the pl...

Re: Rei still makes me scratch my head

The interpretation we worked out here is: Yui deliberately went into Unit-01 during her contact experiment. (See her lakeside conversation with Fuyutsuki.) The attempt to salvage her was only partly successful; they got a young Yui clone body, albeit made of Lilith matter, but Lilith's soul instead ...

I don't have an opinion about the lipstick, but I do think she would be a lot more appealing if she didn't smoke.

Re: azudem's outfit questions

The next thing that happens after Yui's clothes change color is Gendo gets chomped by Unit-01, which has Yui's soul. The change represents Yui assuming Unit-01's color scheme as the transformation takes place. This is just how Gendo gets taken into Instrumentality rather than seeing a Rei clone and ...

Perhaps he thought Gendo had grown the white giant from the Adam Sample he brought him.

Re: Why Rei turns on Gendo - character growth or soul shenanigans

It's quite simply likely down to the fact that Rei's memories were backed up (This is how the Dummy Plug system even exists), and after dying a couple times Rei is resentful because she wanted to stay dead. Then she simply has to go back and realize in hindsight that Gendo never had her best intere...

Re: Are Rei II and Rei III considered the same characters by fans of evangelion/Rei?

I quite like the theorized concept of Rei III as having the memories of Rei II, which preserves the continuity of the Rei character. However, objectively speaking the entity of Rei II was vaporized into non-existence and there is no mention of how her soul would become reconstituted into another cl...
