Re: An analysis I spent 3 years on: understanding Eva, or the gospel of a new century
Well, the contents are good, but there is a problem with editing (IMO). The rhythm is both fast and flat, which makes it kind of difficult to follow after a while. I think it would be nice if you slowed the pace down (consider pausing!), used less layers simultaneously and (I know this would be a l...

An analysis I spent 3 years on: understanding Eva, or the gospel of a new century
No abstract discussions, comparisons to philosophers, psychologists, religions, etc. Just intensive analysis relying mostly on cinematography and motifs, further interpreted by Anno’s own life and the series’ context. For those willing to invest an hour in an intensive anime analysis video, hope you...

Re: Is blood heavier than LCL?
Thanks for the clarification, I'm unsure if Lilith's womb is a portal to a cosmic womb, however. The destruction of the black moon in EoE, which is symbolic of Lilith's womb, since she absorbs souls within it, is symbolic of the rejection of the womb, but humanity's continued existence is guaranteed...

Re: Eva Anatomy & Physiology: 2018 Edition
Something actually occurred to me about the four eyes thing. When we see Unit-01 still connected to Lilith, she's featureless, and doesn't seem to become the shape we recognise until post Contact Experiment. Meanwhile, Adam's progeny show us that AT Fields can manipulate physical form beyond the in...

Re: Significance of the fans surrounding Kaji and Misato?
"Air" - maybe??? More seriously, maybe it's the cross designs motif itself?? That's a great point to bring up about the episode title, do you have any further ideas for what it could mean with this interpretation: Unit 1 is dried with a giant fan after killing Kaworu. Bearing in mind that...

Re: Is blood heavier than LCL?
Yes, that seems to be the implication. I assume that means that LCL is less primordial soup in and of itself than it is a reliable medium for fostering biomolecule creation and stability. Before the idea of it being "primordial soup" was introduced, LCL was a more straightforward analogue...

Significance of the fans surrounding Kaji and Misato?
Does anyone know the purpose of the cinematographic motif of fans that surround Kaji and Misato? In episode 21, Kaji's death takes place in front of a giant fan https://i.imgur.com/oa1ZA9M.jpg The next shot depicts a cross behind him, created by the fan https://i.imgur.com/7jynXlt.jpg Then, a fan re...

Help finding a source mentioning that a staff was killed by Aum
I recall reading a source posted here once that mentioned that a member of the staff for the show was killed by Aum Shinrinkyo cultists halfway into development. It might have been in the Shizo and Parano books, though I'm having trouble finding it. Would anyone be able to point me in the right dire...
