Great post, Xard. I too did not really wrap my head around the scale of the 3I in 2.0's ending. This was probably because, like you wrote, I was simply expecting Rebuild to continue the Evangelion story (at least the bare-bones of it) as I knew it, and the idea of having a massive, 3I-st...

It occurs to me that much of the stuff shown in the preview could have reasonably taken place during the timeskip, and in some instances is even implied to have done so. The impounding of the Nerv staff, and Mark-06 going down to Central Dogma, presumably to impale itself (!!), for example....

Okay, so I saw the movie and read about half of this thread, but even then I'm still not entirely sure what's going on. Because my Japanese level meant I could only understand about 60-% of the dialogue, it's hard for me to tell if the things I don't understand are genuine plot myste...

The bizarre drawings of EoE

I'm sure this has been asked before, but I wasn't really sure what to search for.

What is up with the drawings (like the fish in my avatar) during the beginning of Komm Susser Todd? Is there any sort of known background behind them or has it just been left purposely ambiguous?

Both versions are alright. They don't hold up to the original, but like others have said, it's really cool that she went back and remade the songs after all this time.

The teaser website is is really great looking too.

I remember hearing people saying that the manga was pretty different than the anime, but judging from that picture it looks like things are going in the same general direction.

Still, I need to get around to reading this some time. It's really weird how slow and steady Sadamoto has produced this.

Kaworu is very much aware and open to the implications of his origins; Rei is at odds with herself because of it. I'm not surprised that Rei does as poorly as she does in synchronizing. This seems like the most reasonable answer in the thread anyway. Though we only get to see Kaworu for one epi...

I think the Platinum subs are definitely acceptable for most cases, though like others have said, if you're looking to get really in-depth about it, it's probably better to use something like the Literal Translation Project or just learn Japanese. I hear a lot of people say that NGE loses a ...

Interesting that they've decided to keep the "Q" even though it was supposedly just a code name. I wonder if it stands for anything or if it's just being used to sound cool.

Nearly every friend I've showed Evangelion to has gotten into it in some form or another. One is still intensely hooked onto it. I've also watched it with my parents (including EoE), who both sat through it and thought it was "pretty good," though never commented further. ...

I was always under the impression that she began to purposely weaken her AT field in order to allow Gendo in. Presumably, she had reached a point where she couldn't go back and it would eventually collapse in time.

I am playing (if it counts as a game, since it is really a visual novel) Katawa Shoujo and am loving it. I have 3 out of the 5 routes completed thus far. It's pretty amazing what an independent team has put together for no profit.

The thing that always confused me most about this scene was the fact that Shinji seemingly comes to terms with himself and others when he choses to leave instrumentality. Yet, after doing so, he behaves in the same way he would of prior to the whole experience. It seems to make it a bit irrelevant. ...

It looks like I'm not alone in disliking Asuka at first but having her grow on me throughout the series. It was probably an intentional thing the writers did. I've also grown more respect for Gendo as time goes on. The series casts him in a negative light since he kind of serves as the prima...

I'm not a fan of the sequel theory but it's definitely the first thing that came to mind when I saw that title. I really can't help but feel like Anno is trying to hint at something like that.

Can Iruel actually "fuse" with its targets or merely control them? I guess it might not really matter since the exact definition of what a Third Impact-causing fusion is kind of vague, but it seems like it's possible that simply getting control of a an Eva/Adam/Lilith/etc and causing T...
