[editor’s note: There’s a scene where Kaji says goodbye to Misato and he takes off in the Nerv Helicopter thing. Then it shows Lilith rising during the third impact and it’s head is the Mark 06 body and all (we’ve seen the dead version in Q). Holy moly, this is the first I've heard of this scene in...

Random question. In one of the clips that's circulating, we see Mari use the Chinese phrase 再见 (zaijian, meaning "goodbye"). Is that a loan word in Japanese? My impression is that it's not. If that's so, any idea why Mari is throwing around Chinese words? My thought is that it's nothing de...

Jesus Christ, that's dark.

Ah. No. No clarity. Same as the original series. Same as EoE. She shows up. Shinji looks. She vanishes. Wait. Did Quantum Rei appear at any point in 3.0+1.0? We've seen her at least a couple times in Rebuild. Once at the very beginning of 1.0, when Shinji is waiting for Misato (similar to NGE Episo...

Another observation, a lot of the theories based on the trailers was that Fuyutsuki would be the final boss of NTE like Nadia... It doesn't sound like he does anything of consequence based on the summaries. I think I read that Fuyutsuki commands NERV's Wunder-esque ships (which are Adams' vessels)....

It seems a loop is part of Kaworu backstory (although it isn't clear if the TV series was one of his lifes). The open coffins represent his previous lifes, while the other coffins are his future lifes. Although it's pretty likely he was released from the loop at the end of the film (since he appear...

So, is it directly connected to the anime and EoE? Or there isn't a consensus yet? Well, as many people thought, Kaworu is a universe jumper, trying to ensure Shinji's happiness in every dimension. But other than that, there's no real connection between the original series and the Rebuilds. At some...

No relationship has been confirmed. Best I can glean from the ending is that Mari simply goes to the same destination as Shinji. Likewise Kensuka/Asuka. It could easily be that they are simply friends who've lived close to each other for so along neither are much fazed by him walking on her in the ...

I may have missed this. How does Giant Naked Asuka fit into the story?

First camrip, no sooner How long until we get one of those? I mean, as soon as someone records the movie with a camera or phone and uploads it. We had the first camrip fairly quickly in 2012. I want to say it was inside of a week. Given that cameras are only more ubiquitous now, it may be sooner.

Apparently it's in some sort of negative space. Not literally Tokyo 3.

I'm glad I kept my mouth "mostly" shut on that, however I began to side on the anti-loop side I'll admit. If the loop is real, then yeah, mistakes were made here lol. I never had strong feelings one way or another, though I leaned slightly on the side of some sort of loop theory. I just t...

Loop theory is real, at least for Kaworu.

I told you but you didn't listen.

Oh hell yes. Can't wait to hear from the "this theory has been thoroughly debunked" crew.

Turns out that Mari and Shinji end up together. I'm questioning Anno's sanity right now.

Welp, didn't see that one coming. Goodness.

Okay, I got in the forum. I won't discuss the actual until we have a proper camrip though. The user responsible for extracting the audio track however is concerned about getting lawyer'd if he posts it here, and presumably this could extend to the forums - it's also technically against the rules on...

Yes, that makes sense, since everyone here speaks Japanese.

Well, I gladly accept this as a backstory for Mari's character in Rebuild if no better explanation turns up in Shin. The only thing I dislike is, that in the Manga's continuity she has no place, and we might never learn what happened to her in Sadamoto's Evangelion. It would have been a...

We dont disagree, maybe I'm too harsh. The thing it's that keep using arguments which have been debunked one by one it's just stupid. At least you should give me that credit. I'm afraid I don't know what you're talking about. We seem to agree on the following: - The manga in...

I don't see how we disagree, then.
