Well, close, sorta. Seele triggered Third Impact because humanity was incomplete, and it sucked, and they wanted evolution to start over. I have no idea where you heard that other thing.

If you can't even remember where it came from, I wouldn't pay it much mind. Pretty much everything you need is in the show itself, and whatever that person said is NOT. (Last I checked.)

Well, except for EGK.



EGK? In any event all bias aside there are some things in EoE (such as Shinji, uhhh, shooting web) that simply would not fly on TV.

And I agree, that site doesn't seem to have been updated for 8 or so years...

It is, generally, a bad thing. Here's some suggested reading, A.K.A. the anti-Fuzzy page.

I took a quick look, some things look pretty strange, like the claim that Eva-01 refused to enter Lilith, which is totally contradicted by EoE (unless the claim is modified to Eva-01 refusing to stay in, but that was based on Shinji's decision to cancel 3I and Rei was ok with it).

omg hi 2 you wrote:Your wronge not everyone in EoE cant come back. The ones that cant come back are the ones that have died. The ones that can come back are the ones that were alive during the 3rd impact they can indeed come back because they never died they were basicly in between life and death. Image



Actually, there's a certain amount of evidence to suggest that you are not, in fact, correct. I would point to the case of Misato, and state that she more than likely can come back.

omg hi 2 you wrote:I am not sure how that would even make sense because Shinji actually asked Rei if this was death and she said it wasn't so I dont know how Misato would come back after death.



Because her soul was harvested by one of the Rei-looking things. Therefore she was part of Human Complementation, and subject to the same rules as everyone else who was a part of it. The same exact reasoning applies.

The question of whether or not complementation == death is not germane to the matter at hand. The only real question is whether or not Misato (and others) were part of complementation. If they were, they could come back.

No you're wronge. I'm right.

See the sig?

Whenever Camille would otherwise have been wrong, reality changes shape to accomodate his assertions as fact. Thus, if he were to say that I was the most amazing British man he'd ever met... nothing would change. If he were to say something untrue, though, such as "Misato cannot come back" then all existant copies of EoE, as well as the memories of everyone who ever saw the film would change to reflect reality.

That would mean that this argument never happened, though. The fact that it did happen automatically proves that he's right. That's why it sucks to disagree with Camille. Image

Look at it this way. What "complementation" REALLY entails is the destruction of the body and individual selves. Is that death? I dunno.

Had the process technically been completed? Don't think so. If things had REALLY finished, there wouldn't have been any ATFs to restore...

Yeah, but in essence you do agree with my core point, don't you?
