Re: The little things that made you laugh in 3.0+1.0
I also thought Shinji colliding into the "sky wall" was a great reference to all the walls Toho has turned into skies Oddly enough, the first thing I thought of was The Truman Show, where he tries to sail away from his fake constructed world and the boat suddenly hits the wall and he real...

Re: Sooo, the new Rebuild dubs....
the idea of Gendo having a secret life as a hammy wrestler is a lifestyle I am very supportive of. "Can you smell what the Gendo is cooking? That's right! Time for an Additional IMPACT!" He even announces Shinji's entrance in Eva 01 like "WHAT'S THIS? IT'S THE RED-EYED PILOT OF EVANG...

Jesus that's bad. I don't get how people can justify this stuff when the sub is right there for them.
Oh, live a little. I was hoping John Swasey would give us some ham for Gendo's final showdown with Shinji and he didn't disappoint.

Re: The little things that made you laugh in 3.0+1.0
I really enjoyed the Gilligan Cut from Gendo telling Shinji to hand over Eva 01 if he ever wants to see his mother again, to Eva 01's docking station pulling away as Shinji starts it up. Gendo's deadpan "This is why I dislike children" made me laugh. Gendo performing deeds. And they weren'...

Re: Shinji's Actions
I don't agree that 3.0 portrayed Shinji's actions in "the negative way possible." We're clearly meant to feel bad for him because we know it was an accident. If the movie wanted to portray his actions in the most negative way possible, it would have presented him as a villain, not a guilt-...

Re: You Were (Not) Asleep. (Tentative title)
I've read both walls of texts so far, and let me just say that not only do I love this premise, but it's also beautifully written, and everybody's reaction to Shinji breaking the glass made me crack up, not to mention the unspoken expression of "Holy shit I have superpowers" that I can pic...

Re: How Can Shinji Help Wille Without Piloting An Eva?
The Shinji & EVA01 scenes we've seen are exact copies of the 2.0 movie, so I don't think those are happening before the Impact. I don't doubt he'll somehow pilot it again, though. This statement is really confusing to me. Which scenes from the 3.0+1.0 trailer are copies of 2.0? Those trailer sh...

Re: Shinji's Actions
I've noticed something in the last ... let's say 8 years on this website, and it's that we're very quick to define selfishness, but no one seems as eager to present a definition for selflessness. This leads me to believe selfishness/selflessness might not be the best dichotomy for judging Shinji's m...

Re: How Can Shinji Help Wille Without Piloting An Eva?
I absolutely stand by my comment about Eva fans overthinking things. A hundred different people on this forum have wildly diverging views about what "the message of Eva" supposedly is, what constitutes maturity/immaturity, how much real life philosophy Shinji should study before he decides...

Re: How Can Shinji Help Wille Without Piloting An Eva?
If this mecha anime doesn't involve the protagonist piloting the mecha, it will be a bad movie. Sorry. Shinji has to pilot Eva 01 because it would suck for him not to, and I don't care what this youtuber says. I love the Eva fanbase, but it has a huge overthinking problem and forgets how to be enter...

Re: Shin Eva - Official Social Media
FOR SEVEN YEARS HAVE I SLUMBERED, FLOATING IN THE EMOTIONALLY ENRICHING SADNESS OF HAVING SEEN EVANGELION 3.0. AT LONG LAST I AWAKEN THIS DAY, THE AIR FILLING MY LUNGS AS I BREATHE MY FIRST BREATH SINCE I ENTERED MY STASIS.
SPOILER: Show
I'm like really excited, folks.

Re: Personal Status After Rebuild
I think a lot of us got so wrapped up in speculating about where Shinji goes from here and venting about our empathy for his struggle that we forgot the only valid information we have is what's actually in the movie. And there is just not enough evidence presented in the actual text of the movie to ...

Re: I feel like Shinji will withdraw from everyone in 1.0+3.0
I think this depends on what Wille does with him. If Misato gives him nothing to do except wander the ship and try not to break anything, I assume he'll spend a lot of time making himself as scarce as possible and speaking to no one unless they initiate conversation with him. In that case, I think h...

Re: If Shinji commits suicide...
Misato may feel a pang, and Asuka, we don't know enough about Shikinami to gauge her reaction, but if he offs himself, she (and many others) may view it as admittance of his guilt. I don't think there's much evidence in 3.0 to support this statement. They finally get him back after all these years ...

Re: You Can Start Again
Wow, that twist at the end was definitely unexpected. I look forward to seeing how Shinji tries to navigate having to see Misato again, since I imagine he still probably feels a lot of anxiety about that. In fact, given all the mistakes he's made and the fact that he's not even sure she ever wants t...
