Adding fuel to the fire, did anyone else find it kind of odd for Su-33s to be on-board the US carrier in Episode 8? In that episode, the American Captain is depicted as being pissed off that their fleet was just the UN's "delivery service". Having Russian jets on the carrier would prob...

Keel Lorenz's nationality

The EvaWiki says its Germany*, but I've done some original research of my own, and pinpointing an exact country might be difficult, but I have several theories. The surname Lorenz/Lorentz is derived from the Roman Laurentius , which means from Laurentum. Laurentius can also connotate "the o...

I don't know, but there's an even bigger problem. Is the GeoFront large enough that its gravitational field would be sufficient to prevent all of the people inside from floating into zero gravity? You don't see the Bridge Crew and the equipment flying everywhere when the Black Moon burst...

Misato is "God" of the Evangelion universe, which is why she narrates the "Next Time" previews and knows things never actually shown in-series. She being Shinji's roommate is just an avatar, but the "real" Misato is working to unfold everything that happens. I thoug...

It does change. If the FoK is at the very least something that must be expressed through a body, then we could expect Eva-01 (as a clone of Lilith) to have it, unlike the others. Maybe the FoK (which we know almost nothing about) is a specific part of the brain that only Eva-01 amon...

No, both Lilith and Adam clearly had both fruits. The Seeds only pass on one or the other, but they clearly need both to do their jobs. And, as we see with Yui, if a new Seed is created it likewise gains both fruits (or needs both before it can become one). I like the theory that appeared i...

SEELE's plans for the Evangelions during 3I

According to the EvaWiki, the ultimate purpose for the Evas was to initiate 3I, but how exactly would the original plan have been? I'll give a run-down of the Eva Units and their fate before EoE. EVA-00: Prototype. Destroyed in Episode 23. EVA-01: Produced as a substitute for Lilith. (And la...

Does the series anywhere actually state that Asuka is American? I was always under the impression she's German, or in Episode 9, I think, the subs imply that Asuka was born in Japan or something. Anyways, there does seem to be commentary about Anno's perceived "grudge" towards the ...

"Sample A-01"

This is a theory/fanwank that could be another possible explanation about the nature of the Adam embryo. When the Adam embryo first appeared, Kaji says "It's restored itself this far", and the case holding Adam says "he is living" on it. http://wiki.evageeks.org/images/8/84/O...

Adam's 14 children

Was Adam only supposed to have produced 14 "children"? According to the DSS 2I scenario, this certainly seems to be the case, but then does that mean Adam's "Chamber of Guf" only had 14 souls to be incarnated into Angels? Did Adam lay its "eggs" billions of years ag...

The Positron cannon in Episode 22

What was powering the Positron Cannon used against Arael in Episode 22? The last time it was put into action it needed all of the electricity in Japan, so how did they even manage to power up without busting everyone's lights? Or was it only in 'low power mode', which might explain why i...

Well, with the Spear impaled, Lilith doesn't look 'fat' at all. http://projectenthalpy.com/lilith.jpg My guess is that the Spear impaling Lilith created an aperture for where LCL would leak out, hence why the lower part of the cross is orange. After the Spear was removed, all of the LCL ...

Were the Seeds ever designed to be animate?

This is a question I've always had since watching NGE. Were Adam and Lilith ever supposed to be animate, or interact with their progeny? The Seeds technically have souls, and are godlike in power. Aside from what SEELE was doing, using as a mediums to trigger 3I and all, could the Seeds have wil...

In EoE, Rei is shown entering the solar plexus of Lilith, where a core may have been located. Either that, or GNR was able to generate one from the Adam embryo. (Note, the Adam embryo does not appear to have a core-like feature) And it's even unclear if all of Adam's Children have ph...

But then would that have meant the Bridge Crew were in space along with the Black Moon? So they were essentially watching themselves from external camera?!

The GeoFront in EoE.

When the Black Moon emerges from underground, and is ejected into space, how did NERV HQ still remain standing, when the GeoFront is practically the Black Moon. According to the map, the GeoFront (NERV HQ) only occupies a very small upper level of the Black Moon, approximately 0.9 km in heig...

The jumbo-sized fetus never sat well with me, since it seems to defy the otherwise comfortable fanwank that "if Angels didn't shapeshift, they'd end up growing into giant Adam/Eva-type humanoids". The Evas all being the same size as each other, and as the Seeds, implies that it...

Their eggs (or whatever) might have been distributed across both Earth's surface and orbital space as a result of Second Impact. After a 15-year incubation, the Angels hatch (why they do in a conveniently stacked manner, nobody knows) and begin to head toward the Black Moon. It ...

After all of the Rebuild movies are finished, do you think KHARA/GAINAX might re-edit 1.0 and 2.0 (or possibly 3.0) even further for a "Definitive" version of Rebuild? It's like what they did with Star Wars when it came out on DVD. Maybe 1.0 and 2.0 could be tweaked so they can...
