In 3.0+1.0 there are two instances in which a character discusses the idea of being patted on the head. That got me thinking, and now I have questions. Before Shinji goes to confront Gendo, Misato tells him that the only things a son can do for his father are to kill him or to pat him on the head. D...

What would it take to commission some fan-translators?

During Asuka's flashback to her training days, we see her walking down a hallway directly toward the "camera" past other NERV(?) staffers. In this one shot, she's wearing a suit unlike any of the plugsuits, presumably for some kind of simulator. Is there an agreed-upon name for this suit, ...

Maybe this already has been covered, but does Mari's name offer any insight into her nature? The other "-nami" named characters are clones. Thus, Ayanami is a clone in both NGE and NTE; NGE's original Asuka Soryu becomes NTE's clone Asuka Shikinami. Does "Makinami" suggest that s...

How is the seller asking almost $150 for this?

The moment that probably made me laugh loudest is in Rei's Instrumentality scene. The subbed version wasn't particularly funny, but in the English dub, when Shinji tells Rei not to worry, AWL's delivery of "OK, I won't" is perfectly hilarious.

As a purely literal matter, Shinji does "reach out" to Asuka at the end, but the fact that he reaches out to strangle her doesn't really bode well for their relationship.

Can anyone point me toward a source for the Evangelion Comic Tribute?

Has anyone ever done a breakdown of the images/voices that barrage the audience at the end of the Komm, Süsser Tod sequence, (~1:11:23-1:12:26)? For the voices of the women rejecting Shinji, the only one I recognize (I think) is Miyamura as Asuka at the end, saying she'd rather die. Who are the othe...

Was Touji singing an actual song in the village scene ("Get Over It! Don't Talk About Life!") or is it original to the movie?

Yeah, but don't you find that strange? They built something like that to travel into the minus space, how did they do it? was that in the big brain plan? Mari never played a big role in gendo's plan, and if he and nerv was guarding the facility holding it, wouldn't be better to simply destroy such ...

What is the title of the track that plays during Misato's flashback to Third Impact and Kaji's sacrifice?

I think the equipment from the Paris base is what enables Unit-08 to absorb or "overlap" with Mks 9-12.

"Hmm? What's that?"
"Oh, it's Miss Misato."

The biggest revelation for me here is that Shinji isn't just creating a "world that doesn't have Evas." He's creating a world that will be "okay without Evangelion." That seems to me like a major change of meaning. He's not getting rid of Evas; he's getting rid of the NEED for Ev...

What is Mari singing during the Paris sequence?
