Re: People who call Rei "emotionless" need to actually watch the show
No, humanity is the 18th Angel. That is not being figurative That contradicts... like... 90% of Evangelion's mythology. Terrestrial life is descended from Lilith and ate the Fruit of Knowledge. Angels are descended from Adam and ate the Fruit of Life. Eva's mythology hinges on this setup. Interpret...

Re: Are the mods/admins taking the forum the right way?
Blockio's behavior as a mod has consistently been unprofessional, especially on the Discord server, where it is typical for him to explode at members simply because he is annoyed with a particular topic or user. And maybe those topics or users might be annoying, but I expect mods to handle that wit...

Re: Are the mods/admins taking the forum the right way?
Can you show me an example of me telling someone something they like is terrible and that they're wrong for it? A notable example would be this post here. Excuse me? That post is literally just two paragraphs of "here's how the Evangelion fan community as a whole, not just within the EGF bubbl...

Re: Feedback Thread (GENERAL)

Angel, you have just recieved a warning not to spread baseless accusations. If you lie about this one more time, My accusations aren't baseless and I never lied. I did, however, use the word "unofficial" for a reason. "Unofficial" can be interpreted in a lot of ways. Perhaps you...

Re: People who call Rei "emotionless" need to actually watch the show
Misato was pretty obviously being figurative when she referred to humanity as the 18th Angel. She was referring to the fact that humanity would be its own final enemy. You're right about the RCB being unreliable, though.

Re: People who call Rei "emotionless" need to actually watch the show
There is also no Tree of Life or Tree of Knowledge. Do you mean fruit? The NGE versions of those things don't seem to have much to do with Adam or Lilith. There's some dialog indicating that S2 engines are the fruit of life and the Lancea Longini is the fruit of knowledge but it's not really clear.

nor do we delete people saying unfvorable things about Asuka, another fact that would be easily verifyable by looking through the threads and checking how many of them are expolicitly about how horrible Asuka is or isn't. I'd also like to point out that unlike having a favorite character, baseless ...

Re: People who call Rei "emotionless" need to actually watch the show
What are the chances that Rei was genetically constructed from Adam, not Lilith? In this case, she would be of the seed of life, not the seed of knowledge and therefore, unaware of her nakedness (as according to Genesis). There is nothing in NGE called a "seed of life" or "seed of kn...

Re: Beds and bedrolls
ANYWAY... to answer the question, "Did Shinji and Asuka have sex on a futon in episode 15?", the timeline of sleeping arrangements tells us that it's extremely unlikely. Asuka, being German, strongly prefers beds, and I think she even complains about the Japanese practice of sleeping on th...

Re: So what happens to the angel souls after Third impact?
Instrumentality includes all living things whose AT fields got popped by GNR's anti-AT field, plus Rei and Kaworu because they carry the souls of the seeds of life, plus Kaji because he's speshul.
That does not include Angels.

A "perfect" dub would need to be done completely from the ground up with a new voice cast and better translations.

Re: People who call Rei "emotionless" need to actually watch the show
Although, you brought up another good point about her reaction to being seen naked. This could be a biblical reference. Adam and Eve didn't know they were naked and embarrassed until they'd eaten the fruit of knowledge. Maybe only the Lilim know when they're naked. It helps to remember that Anno th...

Re: Idea about Rei's seeming desire to die and her attempts at self-sacrifice
Rei didn't seek death. She sought Instrumentality and Gendo's plan for it. By the late episodes, however, she had turned against his plan and found more important things and people worth sacrificing herself for - but only if that sacrifice was necessary.

This evening, the part of Rei Ayanami will be played by Dakota Fanning. I doubt any artist can create without countless hours and advanced technology, or even a cosplayer spending hours trying to look like a Dakota Fanning version of Rei Ayanami.

Re: POLL: Does a preference for Rei vs. Asuka affect preference for TOS vs. Rebuilds?
Well, this confirms not one, but two hypotheses I had: 1) Red Team skews overwhelmingly toward the original series and EoE while Blue Team has more balanced preferences; and 2) This particular forum is skewed even more toward Red Team overall than most English-language Evangelion fan communities are...
