Rei was absorbed from the "Salvaged remains of Yui". Yui was absorbed into Eva Unit 01, so the only logical conclusion is that the LCL she was dissolved in was used, and it possibly had her DNA. Nothing else makes sense. Rei's body is made out of Particle Wave Matter, which is the same su...

But Asuka easily is one of, if not the worst written characters in the Rebuilds. How so? 1: Soryu became Shikinami. Why? Such a pointless, unnecessary change. 2: They changed Asuka's great backstory from the anime, which had a lot of great context that explained Asuka's personality and neuroses. It...

She's a tsundere, just like Asuka. Imagine an older Shinji trolling and teasing Asuka as an adult an Asuka being all flustered and angry about it. Thats Misato and Kaji. Misato doesn't hate Kaji. Just very tsun for him. Its not like the manga where Kaji actually cheated on her (Its been awhile since...

The last few posts are very well written, with a good look at Anno without either being too harsh or overly praising him (A problem with heated Evan fans and debates) Anno and his relationship to "otaku" culture and anime/manga media is very long and complicated, and a lot more nuanced the...

Anno has spoken very little about the series in regards to answering fans questions. It could be that some interviews are translated but compared to other series he just seems to have fewer ones. and I have very rarely seen him answer fan questions. I've read him telling people that Evangelion is up...

Asuka needs more then love and care, she needs a better childhood, better friends, and a better life. So many of her problems come from her childhood trauma and using piloting as her coping mechanism. What would Asuka be like? Difficult to say since so much of her personality is created from her tra...

I didn't like how the Rebuilds handled...every single character now that I think about it. But Asuka easily is one of, if not the worst written characters in the Rebuilds.

I believe Gendo and SEELE know how many Angels there are. It is possible that Fuyutsuki and Yui do as well. Outside of that, I do not think anyone else in NERV, not even Ritsuko, knows the truth. Gendo and SEELE I think are the only ones who know about the Dead Sea Scrolls. Misato was out of the loo...

Thank you for the writeup! Shinji and Rei are both among my favorite fictional characters of all time, and their relationship is one of the most beautiful in the show - they quintessentially help make Eva what it is. I completely agree with you on how Rei is completely mischaracterized by the fandom...

I don't see why Misato merchandise with glasses couldn't satisfy the demographic left out. ^_^ This is what I can never forgive Anno for. There is no reason to make Mari (As she creates a lot of plot holes and broke the story, but that’s a different topic) because fan service wise, Misato does “fan...

I find it so strange how Shinji, despite being the main character, the protagonist, and poster boy of this franchise, who has had his mind itself deconstructed and analyzed multiple times, has so little detail on his background. We get extremely little information on his past, most of which is relat...

I know I could...as long as she did it again

The original series and the Rebuilds are two completely different things. The Rebuilds are just something I ignore and forget, and I imagine a lot of people are going to do the exact same. They’re not the original series, they never will be, and they don’t ruin it. The Rebuilds ruined themselves. I ...

What Shinji did was wrong, but he was wrong, had been hit with multiple traumatic events that left him suicidal, and not much longer afterwards completely broke with reality altogether. It’s not an excuse or a justification, but Shinji was just not in the right state of mind. He’s also very young. A...

To be honest, I don’t see the point in getting mad at the supposed “otaku” for sexualizing the characters. The fault and blame lies on Anno and the creators. They wrote the sexualization, then profit off of it. They are completely and totally hypocritical if they they are trying to criticize the aud...

There's a lot of things I would personally change, but at that point I'd just be describing a fanfic.

No Rebuilds, no Mari.

Rei to me has always been an inspirational character, and I get really saddened when she as a character is reduced to a doll - not by the otaku or whatever, but by shippers who tear her down, and pretentious Curse of Eva fans who ironically turn Rei into nothing more then an object to have moral sup...

Got into Evangelion when I was 14, Shinji’s age, just as I was entering high school. Been trying to take care of myself ever since.

Hello everyone! My name is Sefirot, a username chosen specifically for this fandom. Evangelion is my single most favorite piece of fiction and media of all time. I've been a longtime Eva fan for many years, have always been interested in joining EvaGeeks, but now finally have both the time and motiv...
