Interesting to note that the core effect is clearly visible on the tankers, and building in the next-time preview. I can't tell if the effect is moving however Click for larger version [wkimg width=1280:3txrbqeg]Eva3-33_jikai_C08_a_big.jpg Another interesting possibility is that the industrial c...

It occurs to me, particularly considering that action figures are being sold here, that we may well have seen the "Final form" of The vessel in the movie(And a few more along the way for good measure). File:Eva3-33 C1364.jpg File:Eva3-33 C1407 fbcore.jpg File:Eva3-33 C1412 jaws.jpg...

Re: Mark.06 - Seele Type Adam's Vessel [Split]

The Sega Mark.09 figure is titled 「第1のアダムスの器(移行中間形態)ゼーレ仕様」 Specifically labeling it as the first Adams' Vessel We urgently need some clarification on this point. What does "第1" mean? The "first" as in the original one created, or "first" as in "prime" or ...

Isn't it a bit too early for this? Shouldn't you guys wait until the supposedly new footage from the preview has actually been released? What if we get nothing but an updated version of the eva 02+08 fight from the end of 3.0? To avoid the risk of a potentially misleading/confusing/misinfor...

However, the only parts of Seele's plan which Gendo appears to be pointing out as having gone wrong are that Kaworu was "eliminated" and Eva-13 was awakened. It's worth noting that Eva-13 only awakens after Seele are deactivated. But Kaworu says that he is becoming the 13th angel b...

I'll be brief with this question, has anyone speculated that the spears impaling the mark.06 and Lilith might have been from the inside out? The imagery suggests that Mark.06 at least has impaled itself. This is reinforced by the later imagery of Eva-13 doing the same. We have no definitive evi...

The scene to which you refer there is so painfully aimed at the audience that the only way it could be more aimed at the audience is if it was intercut with Russel Crowe. If Kaworu's words were aimed at us, then they blew right past me for one. I'd have pointed to Mari and Asuka's words...

If TMB's illustrations are how the seal was really installed in Liilth's Chamber (meaning that it encompassed the whole Chamber, crack where Units 02 and 08 was hiding included, then it was blocking their view of Lilith, and could only see it when Shinji and Kaworu broke it. While the b...

The 12th Angel comes along and finds a battered, wrecked Nerv, breaks into Dogma and starts to fuse with Lilith, starting the "frozen" 3I again. So while the Third Impact in question is the one started by Shinji and with EVa-01 as the trigger, the 12th Angel starts to hijack it. My proble...

I'm going to take the opportunity to give some thoughts on previews, and while I'm at it, early cam-rips. We've all be "trolled" by at least one preview before. The previews given in 2.0 and 2.22 bore absolutely no resemblance to the final product of 3.0, and arguable did littl...

I think at least part of Gendo's motivation is a reunion with Yui. He says as much to the giant Rei head in 3.0. This actually might be taken as evidence that Gendo's ultimate objectives and motivations are the same as his old ones in NGE (whatever those ultimately were). Regarding t...

That could explain why you don't see Gendo interact with this Rei - though I do think it is a rather pointless thing to consider when she's very obviously working for him; perhaps the reason why the most obvious answer is Gendo is because there really isn't any other answer to consider....

Here seems like a good place to ask this. What do you guys think is Misato/Asuka/The Wunder Crews opinion of Rei (our original Rei) assuming they know she was a clone of Yui specifically created to manipulate Shinji? Looking back over 14 years of war, do they even consider her a human being...
