I think Kensuke is more of a father figure/emotional support figure for Asuka than someone she's in a romantic relationship with. The "walking around naked" thing also seems to be some sort of an Asuka quality. I don't think that Asuka and Kensuke are a pairing that dated and had love rel...

See, here's where I'm disagreeing: I think Anno was going for a "No, I am your father."-level twist, but ended up with a "You are a Palpatine"-level twist. All of your evidence is a stretch, in my opinion. You could easily explain each occurrence without her being a clone: I kno...

I will first address where it is actually hinted at and then how exactly it matters. All info for 3+1 is based on leaks, so please take with grain of salt. 1) The aforementioned elevator scene looks VERY differently when you have that knowledge in mind. It's not just Rei becoming humanized and becom...

I have only one question to leaks and those who saw it: do Asuka and EVA02 get violated by MP Evas?
I do know that she did end up being "consumed" by EVA13, but I am mostly interested in the MP Evas against her.

We need a separate thread for those leaks, don't we? Or will it be fine to discuss here?

Well, I censored one I found...

And I really do wonder how much of a Stalker Zone inspiration Anno had if had any at all. Those levitating cars clearly look like anomalies, I wouldn't be surprised if some dangers are also living in the red wasteland.

For me it says "private video"... WHY!? HOW DO I SEE IT!? :argh: They privated it right after, unfortunately. I tried to download it before that happens, but was too slow @andreh , you have some very crips frame rips, how'd you get your hands on those? also do you have more I saw this lin...

I may be wrong, but aren't most of these shows similar or very in spirit of the Until You Come To Me? Which means that the other implication about Shinji being angel-like being probably is true as well? Also, it slightly feels like Anno decided to make Japanese Stalker adventures. Or is it only mine...

According to Japanese dramatic convention, this is the right phase of the story for a Michiyuki , so the scary thing is you might not be far off from the truth. I mean, we all hope that Anno really had nothing to do with Nadia's Island Arc... or we will find out that it was a lie and will see Asuka...

It is a very late and odd thought, but Shinji, Asuka and Rei Q travelling the red Earth could be Eva's counterpart to the Nadia's island arc

Kaworu didn't manifest as an Angel yet. He couldn't do anything but kindly ask Shinji to reconsider what he is doing, which he did, and try to wrestle the control over EVA13 but the game was rigged and control was on Shinji's side. Him manifesting as an Angel to stop Shinji would be a bad option for...

On the other hand there are hoards of EVA4 mass models that are attacking Wille and the like, with Nemesis series being undefeated/too hard to fight prior to Wunder's launch. If any such hoard attacked Lilin city... it would overwhelm it, unless other factions have standing armies made of Evangelion...

We can however judge that this Gendo face a mask just like in NGE and EoE. He is human that built a barrier between himself and others. And that gives a rather good shot at him doing something that isn't "usual" and breaks his mask, making him go out of his Elusive Leader persona. We do ha...

@ duppertip I know you are new to this forum so I kindly ask you not to write 2 more posts in a row (this is one of the rules of this forum). My bad. So it would make sense if Gendo like Nemo proved to not be a total asshole, even though I doubt he can now go back and fix his mistakes. Nemo couldn'...

It does fit, especially when Gendo is directly referred to as King of Lilin, in same way as Nemo used to be the King of Atlantis/Tartessos. I wonder if we will see Rei and Shinji shooting Gendo under Fuyutsuki's command :shifty: From my personal point of view I would say that the problem with this h...

Okay, so Shinji and Asuka and Rei come to some Lilin village/city/outpost, all 3 in plugsuits. How someone won't recognize them all as EVA pilots, especially when there are 2 EVA pilots in Wille and Rei and Shinji clearly aren't them? Mind you, there weren't many other pilotes to begin with.

That's assuming that all of the remains of humanity knows who he is and made him a sort of Hitler-figure. I don't think that even with all her emotional baggage, Misato would had let his memory to be sullied like that, personally I think that it's more probable that the public at large only know th...

Don't take it wrong, but it reeks of Übermensch ideology where Shinji takes everything for himself by force in an act of spite against everyone, that's the complete opposite of the theme of the Rebuild movies. In fact that would even prove that Shinji is indeed a selfish and uncaring person, like h...

So the final film will be a fight between assholes who renounced their humanity to become gods? That's kinda bleak, don't you think? "We know what is best for you Shinji, we will make you happy" vs. maturing and being able to choose your own path :emogendo: Did we saw the same movies?! Ge...

Also your theory runs into another problem: neo-NERV HQ is gone , it disappeared into the Chamber of Guf during Fourth Impact, so even if for some reason Shinji decided to go back there, he'll only find the ruins of Tokyo-3. I'm really curious about this, is that what happened? The last time I reca...
