Re: Wait so how did Asuka die in EoE?
Just so you're aware the bgm for the awakening is called False Rebirth so it's not just the background images and deranged Kyoko popping up in the mix that has unpleasant implications about the sequence.

Re: "Above the starry firmament God judges, as we judged" Meaning?
You could argue Rei let Shinji judge humanity. But ultimately this does end up very muddled because all the things viewed as gods in the series are very much human and just as flawed as everyone else so it could be purely irony.

Re: Wait so how did Asuka die in EoE?
There is no reason both parts of her soul can't be there. Lilith's soul got put back together after Eva-00 went boom. Thus it's entirely possible for part of Kyoko to want her to live and another part to want her to die. That way we get maximum tragedy and irony. Why try to reduce this to an either-...

Re: Are Adam and Lilith "dead dead"?
The suggestion that Rei had something to do with Asuka's return has naturally come up before. I've never been able to get behind it. Like why would Rei want to help ensure the two of them run into each other after watching their last encounter play out resulting in Shinji attempting suicide by godde...

Re: Are Adam and Lilith "dead dead"?
I don't think it's possible for anyone to give a conclusive answer for this but personally I feel like if they were going to be coming back they'd have been the first ones back since they know all the secrets of the process and letting Shinji meander on his own for weeks either means they can't or t...

Re: NGE2: First Ancestral Race and Seeds of Life
The show strongly implies that this "other universe" is the LCL Sea. (Can link to those threads for whoever missed em.) So are we supposed to think that the FAR came from there? I'm not sure if that would be kind of cool or really fucking stupid. My heartstrings are pulled in both directi...

Re: NGE2: First Ancestral Race and Seeds of Life
I must confess this falls into so bad it's good territory. I don't see what's gained by having the FAR come from SOME OTHER UNIVERSE!1!11 (what's wrong with ours?) -- like, what the hell is this being invoked to explain? Something , I assume, otherwise why the hell is it there at all? This I could t...

Re: “Do you love me” Theory - Asuka & Shinji Had Sex in Episode 15
The composited (not cropped) image was made by NAveryW, and it was just for humorous purposes. Asuka is not smooshing her boobs together while she yells at Shinji in bed; she's propping herself up on her arms. Humorous intent or not it lined up far too cleanly for me to believe it was a fluke. I'm ...

Re: “Do you love me” Theory - Asuka & Shinji Had Sex in Episode 15
I can poke 2 really large holes in this. Firstly everything is predicated on the idea that the sex scene is meant to be a literal physical event. But I'm pretty sure it was Reichu who did a crop of the groundwork angry face from the sex scene and the groundwork version of the female chest that appea...

Re: “Do you love me” Theory - Asuka & Shinji Had Sex in Episode 15
I really don't see how you can reconcile this with Asuka's incredibly blunt in-your-face sexual advance upon finding out about what happened in the hospital. If she'd already ahem propositioned him into a sexual experience her bitterness over the masturbation doesn't really make any sense. I also do...

Re: Grave markers at the end of EoE?
^ That thread gave me a good chuckle remember how the moon phase thing came about and then was promptly forgotten until the topic came up again and I rediscovered it going hey guys we're really big idiots, look at what we forgot! Which brings me to the question why doesn't passage of time in the fin...

Re: Introduction, Toxicity of AsuShin and other things
I could go on a rant about how, yes, there are fictional and IRL factions that are so extreme in their behavior, that murder people en masse simple because they're different and by their very nature do necessitate war as unfortunate as it is. Not even bringing up how many people would be okay consta...

Re: Introduction, Toxicity of AsuShin and other things
I don't get nihilism at all, my reaction to it is literally the same question Rei asked Shinji. Why are you here? Why constantly subject yourselves to a franchise that triggers that feeling? I see the sequence behind Shinji,Rei, and Kawrou right before Shinji regained physical form to at the very le...

Well I'm late to this, I did just get TV Tropes'd back here and saw a topic I thought was interesting and decided to stick around for a few days at least.

Re: Introduction, Toxicity of AsuShin and other things
2 weeks is the best guess anyone has come up with for how long he was alone. Which is far too long for anyone to go without water. And doesn't even get into the absurdity of suggesting Rei and Yui would let him choose life just to be doomed to starve to death.

Re: Introduction, Toxicity of AsuShin and other things
The NGE worldstate is...awful. Even ignoring the FAR's colossal screw up we have the guys that caused the deaths of half the worlds population using this to take over the worlds government. We have people being starved to fund their fanatical religious beliefs It's also very easy to see Anno's view ...

Re: Introduction, Toxicity of AsuShin and other things
So I'm just going to ignore the current back and forth and jump into this thread with my current views on the series since I find this topic interesting in how it relates to the series as a whole. Every fleshed out relationship in this series is toxic. This was done intentionally, as Anno said the e...
