Re: What would Evangelion be without Shinji?
I imagine Rei could serve as a pretty decent main character in lieu of Shinji, but they'd have to rework a huge number of things (Kaworu would probably be the major foil/love interest for Rei here) and it'd go from "quintessential postmodern bildungsroman" to "surprisingly introcate a...

I hope to get to the library and get some writing done...but I'm still wasting away at home.

Re: Kaworu's Upbringing?
Kaworu was probanly raised by some of SEELE's guys similarly to Rei in the sense that he was born--artififcally--not to be human but to serve as an instrument in a sacred mission. As a detail, the fact that that he refers to others as "you Lilin" shows that he is aware of and agrees with t...

Re: Rei's Fate
"Realistically," I don't think there's much evidence Rei can come back because she was Lilith and Lilith pretty much died so that everyone else had the chance to be reborn. It's similar to how Kaworu was the final product of Adam. Episodes 24 and 26' seems to have made their deaths pretty ...

Re: Is there any anime with better characters than NGE?
I wouldn't say that NGE has better characters. In fact the characters are actually rather typical. Where NGE shines is in how it portrays them on various and multifaceted levels.

Re: Who cooks better: Asuka or Rei
Rei would be the better cook because she'd actually take the time to read the cookbook whereas Asuka would spend that time complaining about why she has to cook.

Re: Will Eva become dated, or will it become more relevant with time?
Honestly I think the themes and story in NGE won't get old--there are more than a few classic works that share similar ideas--but the presentation might become very dated in the eyes of a future audience. Stylistic choices, the art, the setting, the light-hearted bits and fanservice, things that we ...

Re: Watching Eva in other languages
I've always wanted to see NGE with the German or Chinese dubs, just to increase my vocabulary in those languages. But the quality is not good at all.

Re: The headcanon thread
Gendo is actually a good guy, or has good intentions. His extremely hard work and brief expressions of regret point to an insanely focused man who is trying his best to do his best. It's just that he's a flawed human being and has so much pressure on him to not fail that he makes mistakes, which are...

Yes, very much so. There's a good article on this.
