I think if he returns to Wille some of them will want to kill him outright - I'm guessing Ritsuko and most of the bridge crew - and some will oppose it. Certainly Misato, Asuka, and probably Mari will oppose it. There may even be a mutiny. But my impression/fanwank is that Wille already had an a...

Assuming that the pile of skulls around Lillith are FOI skulls, a bit of speculation: It's interesting they seemed to be human skulls: two forward-facing eyes and a fairly large skull cavity. They don't have Eva-01 style armour surrounding them, though the FOIs clearly had something like it ...

Been meaning to post for a few days.... Any chance the FoIs initially had heads, but were subsequently beheaded? Wondering if there is a connection to all the Eva-sized skulls at the bottom of Central Dogma. There were a lot of headless FOI lining the walls of the tower up to the inverted pyramid. ...

Eva is a story of flawed people who don't understand each other. Why should we give Asuka's evaluation of Shinji any particular weight?

So that "iris" around 3.33 Central Dogma. If that was an eye, I think it would dark blue. Like Shinji's.

What age exactly do the Japanese class children as adults fully responsible for their actions then? According to this Library of Congess article on children's rights in Japan they have a juvenile justice system, but offenders between the ages of 14 and 20 could be tried as adults at the discret...

Regarding 3.0 Rei: a weird thought came to me a few weeks back that maybe the reason she's labelled "tentative name" is because 3.0 Rei is a retrieved, amnesic, Rei 2 and/or Yui (hybrid?). But that flies in the face of everything we know so far with 3.0, so that's out. Wil...

Though it's worth noting that it's Ritsuko who's saying this. She's hardly a good barometer of . . . well, anything, really. She was always callous toward the pilots, and I could easily see why she might be hateful toward Shinji. I really think the safety bit is what people should b...

Pretty sure Fuyutsuki says that Rei-II is still inside Eva-01. According to the translation he says that, but we can't really take everything he's saying as the truth. If something else had happened to Rei-II, or if Nerv had extracted Rei-II before they launched Eva-01 into space they might...

I'm actually more interested to see what happens to Gendo and Fuyutsuki at the end of 4.0. It'd be a shame if Gendo simply lost his head and Fuyu turned to tang after all the plotting and scheming they went through. The translated Fuyutsuki scene has made me wonder if he isn't a signifi...

And Shinji did cause 3I. He used his Eva to do it, and it wasn't intentional, but even so that was all him. His decision, his actions, his will. Stop apologizing for him and own it. This is the point where I think people are seeing things differently. To me, your statement is false - 3I was not...

The vision of Rei that appears to Shinji at the start of 1.11 and - from the latest preview - appears to Rei-Q while she's in a tank is wearing a school uniform, like the visions of Rei 3 that bookend NGE. But as far as I've read Rei-Q never wears that uniform, and given her situation I thin...

Lillith's Black Moon still seems to exist since it formed the Geofront. On the other hand has the White Moon ever been mentioned in Rebuild? There's a giant black sphere that appears over Antarctica during the Second Impact flashback in 2.22 but it seems to be changing size rapidly during th...

Aww, Shit, Gendo's plan is to turn eveyone into Yuis. Gendo: "Once everyone else is turned into Yui I'll have a harem of billions of the perfect woman!" Fuyutsuki: "Once everyone else is turned into Yui I'm certain to get lucky with at least one of them! Maybe. Call it a ...

Have the images from this page been posted here already? Some of them look like they are from the scene where Kaworu shows Shinji the effects of 3rd Impact.

There's also an Eva-like head attached to the ship, which makes it seem like it might be an Eva Unit. If you look at it from afar, it does look kind of like an Eva with a dragon body, although it doesn't seem to deploy an AT Field; it seems to use an anti-A.T. Field (or it just has a ve...

[ So, Eva-01 started some kind of Impact event that, according to Ritsuko, would destroy all old life in favor of something new. All of these glowing red Evas, along with the annihilation of the Tokyo-3 populace, might be connected: perhaps the Evas were new, "deified" bodies partially fo...

From those images: the basic structure of Clockiel, and the way it destroys 10 of the battleships at once and fires 9 or 10 of those black beams/arms at Unit 02 - it gives me the feeling that it's meant to be another Tree of Life reference. I can't reconcile the various knobs on the structur...

After seeing that picture of Tunniel's midsection I thought: - Without the midsection that appears to be a recent add-on, Tunniel looks a whole lot like the skeleton of a snake. Not exactly, but pretty close; basically a skull with an extended ribcage. Before the autopsy Kaji mentioned, it could...
