Maybe this time Shinji will be the one to fuse with Lilith and Kaworu will have to descend into TD to stop him from causing TI. Ha...Theory's are fun to screw with.

It was only 6 letters, but it was possably the biggest revolution of 2.0

Kaworu and Shinji are apparently brothers in rebuild or something along thoes lines.

Discuss what you think Kaworu ment when he called gendo his father.

I'm almost completely sure that no matter what Kaworu meant by that, it is not to be taken literally.

Maybe Kaworu just refers to the role Gendo is playing within the ranks of Nerv: he is like some patriarchal, distant God, like the Old Testament version of the Judeo-Christian deity.

I think Gendo isn't his father... literally... I think that's something symbolic.
Maybe Gendo created Kaworu the same way he created Rei using Adam ADN and without dead wife...

It's tooo much soap opera.

I get the impression that it's not meant to indicate that Gendo is his father so much that he thinks he's close to Shinji. In Japanese, it's common for a friend to call his friend's father "otou-san". It's a level of familiarity, kind of like honorifics and calling an older friend "onee-san" or "onii-san" (honorifics may vary). Whether that familiarity actually exists between Gendo and Kaworu is debatable, which could mean that Kaworu was being tongue-and-cheek about it (implying a familiarity when clearly none exists).

I don't believe that he is his father or anything like that.

"Father" as in "You must be Shinji's father" something along those lines.

I've totally been saying for a while that Kaworu was a Gendo clone in the same vein as the Yui/Rei/Lilith connection.

You know, in the case that Kaworu is still an angel, then if Gendo kinda fused with Adam off stage, then as much as Kaworu could be saying it to Gendo, he could simply be directing it at Adam.

Then why would Kaworu say "It's nice to meet you (for the first time)"?

It's a clone that Seele made in secret. :nyao: You see they plucked one of Fuyu's hairs while he wasn't looking and then *poof* created Kaworu.

And even if Fuyutsuki happens to be a playa and f*ck'd an angel, it's always possible that the father can bail before the birth.

You guys are messed up and I love you ^_^ I'm going to stick beside my ideas that he was simply saying hello to Shinjis father.

This could be a possibility, correct me if I'm wrong:
If Gendo had an Adam embryo embedded into his hand at this point in the movie, is it possible that Kaworu is referring to Adam's salvaged body being in Gendo?
