... Why do you all post so much while I'm sleeping http://www.evageeks.org/ANF-Archive/images/../images/-sad.gif ? It makes it so hard to respond. Besides, you so often throw out references to extended threads that need at least some extended attention - and often point to other threads recursiv...

Goldarmy, 99% of the audience figured out that Rei's soul = Lilith (once EoE came out, at any rate) without having the RCB spell it out for them... I think that number (which you pulled out of a hat I'll add) is a little over-estimated. I'll be diplomatic about the situa...

Granted, I don't think he is infallible; I put up a fit every time his "creation of Rei" theory is dogmatically cited. Is he one of those ones that says Rei was created as a result of the salvage experiment with Yui http://www.evageeks.org/ANF-Archive/images/../images/huh.gif ? If he ...

I've had countless theories systematically disemboweled in the past. Hell, it still happens. With a lot of the "unexplained" parts of NGE, theorization is largely hit-or-miss (but mostly miss), but I suspect that trying to re-explain what is already adequately explained for mo...

Then share it, and we will merrily gather round like vultures and pick it apart. http://www.evageeks.org/ANF-Archive/images/../images/-wink.gif You can try. Hee hee http://www.evageeks.org/ANF-Archive/images/../images/-wink.gif . Later though. No time still to go into it ... I'll need to make g...

it's the fundamental, essential revelation of the series, in the absence of which the story ceases to make any sense whatsoever ... ... Just because you don't understand it doesn't mean it doesn't make any sense http://www.evageeks.org/ANF-Archive/images/../images/rolleyes.gif . I s...

And even though the ending doesn't actually show Asuka do this, we know that it happened anyway, as you pointed out here . ... if that had been the ending, I might have liked the movie more http://www.evageeks.org/ANF-Archive/images/../images/unsure.gif . Originally posted on: 13-Nov-2004, 03:1...

"The best in life is yet to come." http://www.evageeks.org/ANF-Archive/images/../images/lol.gif http://www.evageeks.org/ANF-Archive/images/../images/blink.gif What? Like ... Shinji: "Wait ... this reminds me of something. Asuka, hold that position." [image of Asuka lying on the ...

I agree strongly with Tines on his points regarding the dolls and stuff and things. But disagree strongly with Tines (still) on his ideas about Asuka and Shinji. I agree they aren't "a couple," but I don't think you can deny Asuka's interest in Shinji and vice versa. Or...

Far from his love interest, I see her role in the story as an antagonist, which is a theory likely to see me challenging Knives for the title of "Least Popular Theory". (J/K Knives http://www.evageeks.org/ANF-Archive/images/../images/-happy.gif ) Ouch, heh http://www.evageeks.org/...

From what i've seen, Shinji is a teenage boy who's attractive to female's physical bodies BUT he also has feelings for Kaworu. That would lead me to think Shinji is a bisexual. But i doubt anybody can affirm his sexuality except for the writer himself. I still suggest this is like sayin...

The whole notion about Misato coming onto Shinji sexually has been rather convincingly demonstrated in previous threads. If you reject the notion that that is what Misato is up to in #23, you're ignoring everything else in the series that implies that she IS. I was able to find this one , since...

He flinches from Misato because he sees her as a surrogate mother, (see the sandbox scene), and the idea that she would be interested in him sexually freaks him out. There's no reason to think from this scene that he's not interested in women. Garh!! I read someone (possibly you...

I think it can be argued - He flinches from Misato's contact (after ReiII's death?), yet later accepts Kaoru's identical gesture in the shower scene with just a blush. And there is little evidence to suggest that this is a case of being so desperate for physical contact that bei...

I think to suggest that Shinji's "attraction" to Kaworu is merely homosexual is to miss the point all together. As has already been said, Kaworu's love for Shinji is an unconditional love ... the first Shinji's ever experienced. To suggest Shinji's return of that love to be...

And it is Shinji who ends it: http://www.evageeks.org/ANF-Archive/images/../images/U5QSO299KSCRUQPJICCS8SFUT-screenshot_12.jpg http://www.evageeks.org/ANF-Archive/images/../images/R7LDUEAS3H08ERNR857SFOSC4-screenshot_17.jpg http://www.evageeks.org/ANF-Archive/images/../images/N256BFMBLPBGU9H89SCTMQ...

Since the discussion seems to be wavering on the vague topic of "flash-sideways" and not going anywhere ... I felt my thoughts on the endings wouldn't interupt anything http://www.evageeks.org/ANF-Archive/images/../images/-happy.gif . So yeah ... I've always felt the two compliment...

Bumping for no other purpose other than to preserve what is, IMO, an interesting piece of forum history. Many of the ideas here have been struck down by NGE2, but an interesting read nonetheless. This is actually where I posted my "birth of EVA-01" theory for the first time, but, oddly, i...

From your perspective, how is Reichu regurgitating crazy theories any different from the norm? http://evageeks.org/ANF-Archive/images/-tongue.gif ... http://evageeks.org/ANF-Archive/images/unsure.gif ... can I ... can I plead the Fifth? http://evageeks.org/ANF-Archive/images/unsure.gif Originally p...
