They both have similar characteristics and traits so I wouldn't be surprised if Anno's own psychological and personal issues helped shape the Shinji that we know of.

Yep it's my favourite. Possibly my favourite TV show of all time considering I've only watched like 4 animes!

I don't think Angels are sent by anyone let alone Seele. I've always viewed the Angels approaching Tokyo 3 as an instinctual behaviour to seek out Adam so they can merge and thereby wipe out all Lilith Based lifeforms.

420 blaze it up.

Holy shit I'm going to die

Not a huge fan of anime per se but I do enjoy the occasional Ghibli film and Cowboy Bebop.

Not very original choices I know

Is there anything from the 2.22 Previews that made it into 3.0? Havn't seem the film yet but I have heard that there is a whole lot of stuff missing which is pretty natural of Anno, trolling everyone again.

So is this a time skip or what? Kaworu was in a school uniform and last we saw of him in 2.22 was him piloting an Eva in a plug suit.

Doesn't make that much sense otherwise (then again no Context!).

Train Stations for me.

I'd hate to be the guy who had to go to sea strapped with the 1:1 Scale Eva Balloon Dummy.

Getting zapped by Ramiel doesn't look like fun!

I always assumed that What Keel meant by saying 'Good. Everything's going well' is that he is content with the way Third Impact / Human Instrumentality has been conducted. Even though it hasn't gone according to SEELE's wishes it is still a favourable outcome to them. The line &#...

Hope they bring back Fly me to the Moon.

Bit off topic but do you lot in the U.S get a public holiday on Halloween? I know for a fact that it is huge over there and it rakes in a lot of money for retail outlets and such but I was wondering if people get the day off etc. Not so big in Australia, do have the occasional Uni/School party but d...

The races and Eva in one? I'm sold

Got to be 'A Step Forward Into Terror' from OST 1. First time we get to see the Eva launch and is one of those iconic moments of the series.

Been rewatching Peep Show after a friend of mine lent me his box set. Criminally underrated (well maybe not underrated but it definitely lacks recognition) and is absolutely hilarious. I've always preferred UK Comedy > US comedy probably because it's a lot closer culturally to Austra...

Eva is a deconstruction of the Mecha genre and that ending is pretty much completely against Anno's critique of the genre. Remember Anno wanted to reinvigorate the Anime business by going against the grain and changing how anime is told. Eva's ending isn't liked by some because it's ...

In the TV series Shamshel (The Fourth Angel) is defeated by Unit - 01 and is left fully intact after having it's core pierced by the progressive knife. The intact angel specimen is used for research and IIRC the extensive research performed on the Angel's core and S² Engine was utili...

Maisie Williams as Asuka anyone? I reckon she's a great young talent and she seems like she is capable of playing someone like Asuka who is Loud, fiery and rash.

As previously mentioned Hugh Laurie would be perfect for Gendo.

Would like the majority of the cast to be from Japan though.

I understood eva at 4 years old, And I watched EOE at 6. People are still surprised that I understood it at 4. But I lead a very serious childhood. And Pokemon and DBZ will live in my heart as well. That's pretty impressive considering many people have trouble understanding it as fully grown ad...

He flirts with Shinji in the TV series and Rebuild albeit jokingly.
