Re: Shinji creates a new world in the ending of Evangelion 3.0+1.0?

I don't think so since you see the world going on, Asuka returns to Kensuke's house, etc
To me the train station scene is mostly symbolical of the end of Shinji's, Eva's and even Anno's story.

Re: Use of Religious Imagery in Rebuilds

lol, true. But, at the same time, I don't think Anno would have been drawn to that imagery to begin with if Ultraman didn't introduce it to him first. Western Christianity is practiced by all of 2% of Japan's total population. But, at the same time, there was already an undercurrent in most of Japa...

Re: Use of Religious Imagery in Rebuilds

There is sufficient evidence that the religious imagery in Evangelion has more to do with it being an Ultraman reference than an actual Bible reference. I don't know how that's supposed to work when Eva is an apocalyptic narrative and the religious symbols are always supporting what happens in a gi...

Re: The Script for Rei and Kaworu at the Train Scene

If the character is Asuka, her appearance in the train station is really weird. Unlike Rei and Kaworu, we don't have a close-up to the character. Not to mention that her appearance in the train station don't fit her ending in the Instrumentality (where she returns to Earth). I think that's easily e...

Re: What fake intel did (Kaji?) mix in?

That is not supposed to be Kaji I'm pretty sure haha. Keep in mind he is introduced in the next episode.
Like in many anime the VAs would do minor roles here and there, you can catch Asuka's and Rei's VA very often too.

Re: Is the Nebuchadnezar Key Kaworu's original body?

I remember Shigeto Koyama (who apparently designed the Key) saying on twitter that the design we see in 2.0 is kind of a spoiler.
I still don't know what he meant.

Re: What anime are you watching right now? Summer 2016 to now

The Wind Rises is one of the best films I've seen. I think it's pretty clear about being a fictionalized account of Jiro's life. It's dedicated as much to him as it is to author Tatsuo Hori, and based on both figures. The wife character is lifted from the latter's novel: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/w...

Thanks for that! Love knowing these details.

I guess Tsurumaki just was the one in charge here, like with the -120 manga.

Re: MariShin discussion general

I think some people also actually died right? Like Kensuke's dad and such. But yeah doesn't change it.

(Maybe I'm wrong on this and all these dead parents they mention are floating somewhere as red Evas)

Re: MariShin discussion general

I do kind of see Joseki's point of view. I find it difficult to sympathize with a character who has committed rather questionable acts throughout the entire movie series. I really think Eva in general, but especially Rebuild, with how it exaggerates every element of what we've come to know as Eva, ...

Re: MariShin discussion general

I don't think Asuka and Kensuke are supposed to be a pair necessarily, but Shinji and Mari in the last scene are pretty clearly portrayed as being in a relationship imo.
But I don't think that scene is really about that.

Re: NTE's interpretation of the characters

I don't really take -120min into account when thinking about Rebuild.
It's a fanservice short by someone other than Anno. It was fun for what it is and very pretty but that's about it.
