Matarael- the one I call Retardael- the angel of mental retardation. I wonder what the scrolls say about that one.... Peirre: You have to be kidding. Nigel: It really says its the angel of rain.......and stupidity. Teddy: Well why can't I get it to rain on my vegetable garden... Peirre: It'...

If you listen to Touji's slurred speech, it is fairly obvious that Touji is merely hallucinating. As always, I believe that it's unwise to dismiss anything that happens in EVA as an hallucination. (Except for really obvious moments like the buildings closing in on Shinji in ep. 4.) ...

Well, I care about the characters, too. I think most of the rewritten jokes captured the "essence" of the humor, just beefed it up a little. And the ep 26 AU is scary no matter what language it's in, so I don't care much about what's done to it. Though I have to wonder what th...

Of course in the dub, she says something about "riding his baloney pony", which is a bit overboard, and just stupid... http://evageeks.org/ANF-Archive/images/rolleyes.gif That's why I never watch dubs; a line that bad is unworthy to be associated with EVA . Are you sure that isn't...

I know that this is almost universally hated but I think it's a worthwhile addition for a bit of a chuckle, even if they do get bits wrong. I was just wondering, is it the levity that people hate so much? It's not just "bits" that they get wrong; it's nearly everything. All th...

I can understand 16 but why 15? Nothing particularly exciting happens. If you took a poll around here, 15 would probably be in the top 3 episodes. (Unfortunately, I don't think that the poll feature can handle 26 choices.) Like Shin-Seiki, I didn't particularly like EVA the first ti...

More people who should be in this movie:

Gendo = David Warner

Fuyutsuki = Harvey Keitel

Boring Old Teacher = Malcolm McDowell

Yes, and Walter Koenig too! He could be Keel; we know he can be really evil, because he played Bester on Babylon 5.

I agree with Kagerou. There's no telling how this thing is gonna (and it will) turn out. I for one hate the Final Fantasy video games, but I love the movie. My fear is that the EVA movie will turn out like the infamous American version of Godzilla : they'll buy the rights to the nam...

I believe I was griping about the entity "Rei" existing long enough to grow up in the first place. The last Rei was destroyed in EoE. Lilith became a giant Rei, fell apart, and petrified, and all we have left are these little schoolgirl phantasms. THE Rei YOU KNOW IS GONE! SHE WILL NEVER ...

Bumped because this thread was a lot of fun, & out of nostalgia because this is the thread that got Mantra banned. (The offending post seems to have been deleted.)

Isn't Aoba the last of the group to go? If so, he may just be freaked out from seeing everybody else explode. Why there are a bunch of Rei, and why they're naked (none of the others are!) is a different, weirder question. They are naked because they are the destroyed Tank Reis (...

From what Kaworu-kun says, it sounds exactly the opposite to me. And, what gives you the impression that Kaworu is "fresh out of the tank", as opposed to, "has been prancing merrily around restricted areas of Germany* for 14 years"? (I mean... what tank? http://www.evageeks....

Why do so many deny the existance of other forms of love that are not derived from sexuality? Exactly. And since Kaworu is probably "fresh out of the tank" and has very little human experience, I don't think he even realizes that people might put a sexual meaning to his words. Origina...

It's a view espoused by a fairly large number of NGE fans, but to take this view is to ignore one of the fundamental concepts inherent in modern literary and cultural theory, which states that the intentions of the author/creator are unimportant. The 'text' is all that counts. If there ...
