Eeeee~! As much as I "ship" for Asuka x Shinji, I think... I... yessss. >_>

That's probably wishful thinking, but I still cannot help but wonder at Kaworu's Shinjiphilia. What's it all about? His connections to the human world seem deeper this time around.

We can dream. ...And write fan fiction. Oooh glorious fan fiction....

If only AxSxK were a reasonable outcome :shinji_boohoo: But I just can't see Asuka sharing.

Have you read that one theory that the pilots are all reincarnations (or something) of the Adams? Maybe Kaworu is the only one who retained his memory of their previous life.

I'm against it as well but we all know how 'persistent' Kaworu is around Shinji. :wink:

This is just a theory but... I think at some point in the third film... They're going to kiss! >_<

Does the 2.22 Script indicate if Kaworu was talking to Fuyutsuki or Gendo? Anything that's mentioned in the scene would be helpful.

There's a theory going around that perhaps Kaworu knew Shinji when little, similar to GoS2 manga (Angelic Days) and Gakuen Datenroku (Campus Apocalypse).

I still wonder how Gendo could hear Kaworu's voice if Kaworu was outside the ship and Gendo inside the ship, considering the fact that Kaworu wasn't screaming

Or that there is no air in space for sound to propagate. I doubt either of them was able to hear Kaworu.

Did Gendo give any indication that he actually heard/understood what Kaworu said? It's not like Gendo went "Hey, did you hear that Fuyu-chan? He called me daddy."

I'm pretty sure he and Fuyutsuki were just shocked that a person was sitting on the moon breathing nothin' but moon air.

Just like there was no air to make Kaworu's hair sway or to hiss as it left his plugsuit at the end. Maybe Kaworu has his own personal atmosphere...

Anyone feel like this is starting to loose all meaning, and that it's just filling up with desperate excuses to justify continuity errors.

Is it possible Kaworu was talking to someone else? I mean someone other than Gendo and Fuyutsuk.

always possible he was talking to the pilot I guess, though probably wasn't, that'd be a great 'screw you' to fans wouldn't it though? get em wondering which of the important characters he was talking about then turn around & say "it was the shuttle pilot all along lololol"

Because the moon has such a high population count. Especially what with his specifically turning to face the two of them.

Split from another thread.

In rebuild at least I think Fuyutski may have been his donor. The reason is he looks over at the area Gendo and Fuyutski are and says father. Now most people would assume he was talking to Gendo, but think about it, he looks more like Fuyu then he does Gendo.
