Re: The Last Train Station Scene
I agree with Blockio that there's nothing interesting happening with Kaworu's watch in this scene (besides the mere fact of its presence—he's never worn one before, right?), and also that the "aspiration to find meaning where others did not look is commendable." There's so much to see in N...

Re: Year of the Rebulds
Here's my topic about dates from a year and a half ago: Have we found all the dates in the Rebuilds? In it, we additionally cover some school and apartment calendar screenshots. I don't think we discussed looping or anima in there, though! Image links if you guys also cant see them here: https://img...

Re: The Script for Rei and Kaworu at the Train Scene
It's interesting that Asuka doesn't seem to be part of the script. If the character is Asuka, her appearance in the train station is really weird. Unlike Rei and Kaworu, we don't have a close-up to the character. Not to mention that her appearance in the train station don't fit her ending in the In...

Re: Original Shikinami scene and the 9th Angel contamination scene
To answer everyone, I think there's supporting evidence that we're following two different Asukas on that particular sequence. The first one we see smirking right after finishing her simulation. The other, who shows up right after, doesn't appear that happy though (despite having achieved identical...

Re: Original Shikinami scene and the 9th Angel contamination scene
I think the entire point of that sequence is to show that our Shikinami is the only survivor. Do you disagree about the strength of the implication I wrote about above, or are you basing your opinion on some other details from the sequence? Hence why in HA she keeps on telling herself that she's &q...

Re: Original Shikinami scene and the 9th Angel contamination scene
Well, given the way the flashback sequence played out with only Shiki left, I think we can pretty safely assume that OriAsu did not have a physical body left I don't think that's a safe assumption. In my opinion, the flashback sequence is ambiguous enough that it supports physical survival of more ...

Re: Original Shikinami scene and the 9th Angel contamination scene
Original Shikinami seems to be weird, but we don't what experiments she went through. Yui was a regular human before her soul was absorbed by Eva-01. Yeah, I wish we would know more about the original Shikinami progenitor, like who she actually was, and how she was absorbed by Unit 13. ... Can we e...

Re: Original Shikinami scene and the 9th Angel contamination scene
Do you guys think the original Asuka is the base for the Shikinami series clones like Yui is to the Ayanami series or is she another just clone? In the ending scene where we are shown the Shikinami elimination process, we see two Asuka’s remaining, so maybe one of them was put in unit 13? In my Cou...

Re: The Apocalyptic Schizoid - Gendo Ikari
It's interesting to read this new topic about exterior-interior-split schizoid Gendo on the heels of reading Axx°N N.'s recent posts struggling with recluse-schmoozer-split mastermind Gendo. I wonder if that struggle can be eased a bit by viewing Gendo through the lens of mental illness in the manne...

Re: The morality of Gendo in NTE
I think this is a big crux of the issue: calling it "genocide" I think is an incorrect description of what Gendo is doing, and calling it that communicates the wrong idea. He's not enacting a systemic annihilation of a group or groups of people out of discrimination or prejudice the same ...

Re: MariShin discussion general
I think Joseki's position that Gendo, an ultra-Hitler, deserves nothing good is widespread. I've read opinions like that many times on these forums and elsewhere on the internet. But I'm not comfortable dismissing the other characters' or even the filmakers' treatment of Gendo as "unethical,&qu...

Does anybody on the forum know how or why something like this happens? I don't know anything about how physical media is produced; why aren't the US release discs exactly as good looking as the Japanese release discs?

Re: I believe Mari is another (guardian) angel figure in Eva
Mari is not the classic Sue in the sense of the original Star Trek fanfic where a low rank character does everything right and gets deferred to by her superiors; I don't have a horse in this Mary Sue race, but it occurs to me: isn't Mari a low rank character (an Eva pilot under the control of Kaji,...

Re: Is the Nebuchadnezar Key Kaworu's original body?
As we can see in 1.0, the coffins really exist in the moon in Kaworu's current loop, so they likely have a function. I think the coffins are the way SEELE creates Kaworu's body (the soul being from the First Angel). The open coffins being the failed attempts and the closed ones would have been the ...

In 3.0+1.0, there is even a flashback of the Spear of Cassius impaling Eva-01 in Kaworu's Instrumentality. There is no new footage of the event in 3+1, right? The flashback is merely color-adjusted footage otherwise the same as the 2.0 footage of the Spear of Cassius impaling Eva-01? If correct, I ...
