Ooookay, is there any actual context for this, or is it just as random as i’m seeing?

(Is contemplating whether or not to create a bingo out of Reichu's ideas to see how many make it into the final film)

I will say, I am intrigued. I wish you luck should you manage to write the full fic

Kaworu's lines: the most we can determine from them is that Shinji and Kaworu have supposedly met before, but Shinji doesn't remember. While this may point to a time loop on the surface, NTE offers us another possibility, memory wiping, first mentioned in Jo and revealed to be an actual plot point ...

You say many, yet so far, I only recall the one beginning/ending shot you've referred to. Care to mention all the others, and why a time loop is what they're pointing towards?

Probably to quickly get across to the audience that something is very very wrong with this setting if the oceans are red

Put which concept?

I'm not sure if i'm following the logic here

Sounds like one to me
Plus, opening on a shot like that is a nice and quick way to establish that something must be very very wrong with the planet Earth if red is the color of her oceans now

The time-loop theory is still the strongest to my mind. The series spends far too much time pointing at the differences from the original series for the answer just to be "it's a different series". Knowing how much other franchises also like to point at past continuities (Godzilla: King o...

I'll play contrarian and assume that it's actually a new clone Gendo/Fuyutski has just awoken

It's less that Kaworu lies, and more that he doesn't tell the whole truth, even when there's a considerable amount of information Shinji should be made aware of. As for his motive, I feel the simple answer is that he feels Instrumentality would bring Shinji happiness. As for why he thinks that, i ca...

This is probably me thinking too hard, but shouldn't the air around the awakened Eva 13 have been turning to core if contact is enough for it to spread?

One question that now comes to mind after this supposed revelation, just what the hell are those coffins supposed to be on the Moon?

So, what i'm getting out of this is that NTE is some kind of weird cosmic love story between Luvah and Lilith?

So, in other words, LCL is just dead Core?

Now i actually wonder, what exactly happened to the giant rainbow portal over Antarctica that we saw in 2.0, is it even still there?

Ok, this is just a shot in the dark, but could the amount of 4's in the name be referring to how many Eva bodies make up the whole? As in, 44B's are two Eva Bodies holding generators, while the 4444C is four bodies holding up the positron cannon

Finally, someone asking the right questions

As others have said in previous threads, i wouldn't consider Mari a main character like Shinji and co. More a secondary Character, like the Bridge Bunnies and Sakura
