Why do the Rei clones have no souls? Ritsuko said when she destroys them that they are just empty vessels. What about the cloning process makes them souless? Also if Rei is just a clone of Yui, then why did she have a soul in the first place which was absorbed in Unit 00. But the Dummy Plug Factory ...

Just on the evolution topic, are the angels also against each other? In a survival of the fittest way? For example, if Sachiel would have made it to Adam, would it have wiped out all the other angels and the planet would have been all Sachiels? Or do angels, since they are basically immortal, not re...

I'm sure I'm not the only one to wonder, why do angels not have to evolve fire millions of years like we did? Is that one of the advantages of the FOL. And the FOK makes us have to evolve? The CI in NGE2 says the FAR are humanoid. So why would.Adam and Lilith be humanoid, but as her children...

Btw, keep in mind that NERV's numbering of the Angels is completely arbitrary. They seem to imply that The Dead Sea Scrolls tell them how many there are/would be. Gendo says how many there are left at a few points. Or at least once. Which is odd, because when the scrolls were presumably packed ...

1. Why is Kaworu an angel and Rei isn't? Kaworu houses the soul of Adam. Rei has the soul of Lilith. Why is he an angel but she isn't? They're "the same" according to him. 2. Are the angels a hive mind? Kaworu said that our consciousness/individuality/Soul was our AT Field. I t...

If humanity was born from Lilith and we are the 18th angel, what does that make all other life? In the third impact were animals and plants reduced to LCL as well? or were they just destroyed in the process? This has made me wonder, humanity appeared like 200,000 years ago. So was that when Lilith p...

Can't say I'm crazy about the Goatse-esque positioning of 01's hands. But never the less, extremely well done.

A cruel angels thesis is one of the best anime openings ever. The rest of the music is ok, I like Misato's theme, but I think only because of when it is used, not musical merit. I think the classical music works in every case but Asuka vs the Eva series, I think there would have been better piec...

The Rei clones have no souls, but why? How to they stay together? Rei starts to literally fall apart in EOE, and I was under the impression that it has something to do with souls. That if you add a soul to LCL you get a person (basically). Is Rei made of Particle Wave Matter? I'm basing ...

Despite just looking kick ass, back in the day (ancient times), especially ancient greece, and palestine they thought people were bigger in the past, especially heros. So that may have influenced it, but the former is my guess.

Should people be able to come back though? And why was Shinji the first? Shinji does not have a strong individualistic personality. Or was he first because he was the one who 'initiated' it

The eva series was incomplete as we all know. Why could instrumentality happen then? Or is that why Shinji was able to reject instrumentality, which I assume enabled everyone else to reject it as well. Seele talks about the Dead Sea Scrolls and everything going according to plan. So I take it the Sc...

Actually, I think woman and mother would be reversed. It seems so. In psychology class we learned that motherhood is not necessarily innate. However in the NGE universe maybe it is. I think at this point the analogy simply breaks down, because there are id/ego/etc elements to all three of those fac...

I always figured Mother/Woman/Scientist was Ego/Id/Superego respectively. Or some variation of that. I assumed woman, being the part that was in love/lust with Gendo was the Id, since I assume that she knew he was just using her and he was still in love with Yui, but didn't want to admit it, unt...
