Re: Kaji on the phone?
No, that's not true. They are very much wrong, as Lilith is not the source of the Angels. The source of the Angels is Adam. That part of the RCB is just flat out wrong. I'm glad you think so. But since one of those occasions is a film book from 20 years ago and the other is a DVD booklet I don't co...

Re: Kaji on the phone?
"Jesus Christ, talk about dense" is a personal attack. Oh come on. You can read it yourself here . Citing Lilith as the source of the Angels with no mention of Adam is the big one, though I'm sure Reichu has noted others in the past. And note that this is an accurate translation of the Ja...

Re: Kaji on the phone?
Kvanu: If you can't make your points without resorting to personal attacks it's probably best to give the discussion a rest. As for this: I have mentioned that, several times. The Red Cross Book was the theatrical guide for the End of Evangelion , and it contains a number of errors. Those errors do...

Re: Kaji on the phone?
No, it's not. You claim that, in order to be in the BD book, it has to be 100% accurate, but as we've seen with other guides accompanying the DVDs/films that is not a safe assumption (the RCB has a couple, for instance, which is why I mentioned it upthread). That book is not an infallible source, s...

Re: Kaji on the phone?
How does that follow?? The logic isn't screwy at all,it's actually perfectly linear. You just can't follow the logic. Two different things. Reichu explained it well: Yeah, definitely agree with this. Eva sources love to pad themselves out with "obvious non-information". I mean, seriously,...

Re: Kaji on the phone?
Well, I was saying it when they were all in Japanese, so I don't see how that'll change when they're all translated . . . Really, I put Chronicle on about the same level as the CRC and Groundwork books, while I put the BD books on about the same level as the CRC. It's all Gainax/Khara stuff, but Ch...

Re: Kaji on the phone?
Even if there was no confirmation from the film book and the BD booklet (the BD booklet is the most recent one that comes DIRECTLY from Khara/Anno, so how can someone say that it isn't conclusive on the matter) it's just so obvious to a keen viewer based on context that the caller must be Kaji. Gend...

Re: at which point were you most angry/frustrated/disappointed with a character
You keep saying "mostly likely", but it isn't likely at all. What's likely (if he was the guy on the phone) Why do you keep pretending like this is up for debate? Both Film Book 3 and the Blu-ray Box booklet confirm that it's Kaji at the beginning of episode 7. It's not up for debate. And...

Re: at which point were you most angry/frustrated/disappointed with a character
So, while Kaji may have provided most of the information/incentive Gendo needed to carry out his plan to discredit the JA program That's what I'm saying. I'm not saying he took an active role in the JA project (Ritsuko deserves that complaint) but he mostly likely facilitated it since their convers...

Re: at which point were you most angry/frustrated/disappointed with a character
Pretty much, yeah. I agree it seems likely "That's unlikely to be Kaji" Anyway he was involved in the incident enough that Gendo had to mention it to him in their catch up. Also the beginning of the call has Gendo thanking Kaji for doing him a favor, proving that Kaji has gotten spy thing...

Re: at which point were you most angry/frustrated/disappointed with a character
No, we don't, since he's never mentioned by name. NGE would be impossible to understand if you only learned information when the show spelt it out for you. There's something called inference based on context clues and circumstantial evidence. You are like a jury on a murder trial who will not find ...

Re: at which point were you most angry/frustrated/disappointed with a character
That's unlikely to be Kaji, as he's en route to Japan with Asuka at the time. It's Kaji's VA, yes, but then Rei's VA also does Pen-Pen, and Yui, and the Eva, so . . . Seriously? Kaji talks to Gendo on the phone in Episode 8 as well, while he's on the ship. And the man on the phone in Episode 7 not ...

Watch the beginning of Episode 7 when Gendo is talking to Kaji over the phone

Re: at which point were you most angry/frustrated/disappointed with a character
Shinji obviously for his actions during the beginning of EOE. Ritsuko for not giving a single fuck about pilot's wellbeing throughout the course of the series. She was the only adult (besides Gendo obviously) who didn't have some emotional connection to the pilots. She was the only one who didn't ma...

Re: Anno is writing and directing a Godzilla movie
I thought that since Anno announced that he'd be directing Godzilla last April 1st, and April 1st is the start of Japan's fiscal year, then the chances of it being an April Fools joke is significantly lower this time around, since it definitely wasn't a joke last April Fools.

So... there's an actual Godzilla v. Evangelion movie coming out? Is this part of a joke?

Nothing. But I disagree, and was explaining the basis for my disagreement, so there's that.

Re: Anno's Animator Expo
Or, now with Godzilla coming to a close and and seeing its release in 4 months, Anno thinks its about time to use Expo as a vehicle to pimp out an Eva related short (or trailer)? The last shot from Expo was him floating in an LCL tank after all.
