The size seems to suggest Lilith, and the color isn’t very consistent with Mark.06…

Mark.06's Pseudo-Evolution halo.

Re: I don’t understand when Third Impact Occurred?!

3) I do not see the Spear of Cassius in this picture of the beheading scene. Is it in there somewhere and I just missed it; do we have other evidence that Cassius has been removed from Eva-01 as of the beheading scene? I apologize for this, I could have sworn I remember seeing the Mark 6 holding th...

Re: I don’t understand when Third Impact Occurred?!

I generally have difficulty reconciling what a potentially limbless Eva-01[...] Has anyone thought out any theories of how/when did Eva-01 loose the remaining limbs? At the end of 2.0, it had only lost it's left arm... Could be cannibalised for Eva parts, could be a measure of immobilising it in ca...

Re: I don’t understand when Third Impact Occurred?!

Thank you, this seems like a good argument that Unit 01 does not continue Third Impacting after Cassius is removed. But does the same reasoning extend to Unit 13 in 3.33? There, we see Unit 13 Fourth Impacting without being driven by either pilot's will and without apparently being autonomous like ...

Re: I don’t understand when Third Impact Occurred?!

1) In this picture from 2.0 preview Eva-01 looks normal (albeit speared) and protected from corefication by sealing pillars. Do we have evidence that Eva-01 is actually coreified during Third Impact? (EDIT: Okay, right after pressing "Submit" I realized you probably meant that Eva-01 had ...

Re: I don’t understand when Third Impact Occurred?!

It's possible Eva-01 is corified because they removed Cassius. After all, we don't know if Eva-01 was on Earth when the Third Impact happened. My theory is that Cassius being removed from Eva-01 still has consequences like the red in the moon and the corification of Eva-01. Spears have no relation ...

Re: I don’t understand when Third Impact Occurred?!

Also, we don't know if the Spear of Cassius was removed from Eva-01 without consequences. I suspect the red color in the moon could be related to Eva-01 being in space. The Third Impact with Lilith as epicenter "purify" the land on the Earth, so it shouldn't affect the moon. Eva-01 is cor...

Re: I don’t understand when Third Impact Occurred?!

My off-the-cuff proposal today is that the removal of Longinus from Lilith does not cause the Third Impact we see the results of in 3.0, but instead begins a Different Impact. Then, Wille/Nerv is faced with a dilemma: stopping this Different Impact will require using both spears to subdue Mark 06 a...

Re: Evangelion's Timeline Dates & Speculation

The re-match against Israfel taking place on a Friday 11th of an unspecified month, which can't be September given above. I assume October given the remains of Ramiel are still shown earlier in this episode. https://i.ibb.co/CnnfTz2/vlcsnap-2021-10-03-20h38m21s985.png If this can't be September bec...

My understanding is that he's carrying the briefcase in 3.0 and doesn't actually use it until Shin.

Re: Credits of EOE at the end of the movie

So I'm doing my research to contribute to the wiki, and would like a confirmation from sources and origins. What I do know, is that there is an EoE version where the credits are presented at the end, rather than in the middle, as we are conventionally used to. I would like confirmation of what this...

Re: Asuka's actions during EoE's ending

-Anno has apparently implied the possibility that the final scene might not be 100% literally happening nor a timeskip and that it's internally treated like a short film within a film. Interesting, I don't recall this particular tidbit. Or perhaps I heard it so long ago that I plumb forgot he said ...

Re: Asuka's actions during EoE's ending

-This is often quoted, but in rewriting the last line, Anno asked Yuko how she'd feel if someone snuck into her room and jacked off to her, and that's how you got "kimochi warui." Although I really liked your interpretation, if that's the case, wouldn't it imply that "how disgusting&...

It might also be worth stating some of the extra behind the scenes stuff, some quoted often, some less often: -There was a version of the ending where Shinji is holding someone's hand and talks about the possibility of nobody never coming back and it's revealed to be a severed arm. -As I said, the s...

Re: Asuka's actions during EoE's ending

In short, the caress represents a babystep towards connection, not an outpouring of love; and "kimochi warui" is just a blunt statement, not an expression of hatred or disgust. They're lightly contradictory because Asuka's still Asuka and she's gonna bite, but they're not exactly diametri...

Re: Asuka's actions during EoE's ending

The "caressing while being strangled" is actually based on an irl event Anno heard from a friend, and is supposed to parallel what we saw Yui do earlier. For Asuka's perspective, I can only assume she's doing the thing Anno heard someone do for real, but also it represents a simple action ...

Re: How controversial was the EoTV ending in actuality?

The documentary and/or Anno is combining two different things. a) Having compeleted the series, Anno suffered an "identity-collapse" after having poured everything of himself into Eva, and was in a daze. This is when and why the "suicide attempts" happened, but friends and staff ...
