Most of these questions were answered by hints in the series and a lot of guess work. But were mostly confirmed by Evangelion games. The black moon crashed into earth, debris collected from the collision became Earth's Moon, this is 1st impact. Embedded deep underneath Japan, this becomes the Geo Fr...

Hah yeah, so still a fusion, but not in the pretty Mecha way but more like the Akira way

I was typing up a whole rebuttal, but I suppose I can't get around why the people who turned into fols would have the fruit of life, and would need to (re)claim a fruit of wisdom. Guess I didn't think that through. It's just that fruit of wisdom for the head would make more sense, or maybe we're loo...

Been a while since I read this whole thread (so excuse me if I bring up stuff already mentioned), but I had a train of thought about this yesterday, so I thought I'd share. Losing a head / being headless seems to be a common theme in NTE, I'm starting to think that it head holds the fruit of wisdom,...

Certainly, been gone for couple of years, the anticipation of the final movie (and release of trailers / previews) got me active again.

Your username and avatar are nicely disturbing, thank you for that .

I saw NGE around the same age, and had the same feeling. But I thought it was awesome. Never before was a movie/series able to hit me that hard. Especially EoE, I felt it in my soul, it changed me, and at first I hated it. After a while, I noticed I couldn't help but to keep thinking about it, littl...

I really like this theory, ties in with the themes of loops/cycles without trying to force its way into as NGE as some kind of sequel. Altho technically we could apply the Marvel multiverse logic to this, that NGE was one of the many loops within NTE, anyway, it's irrelevant, NTE stands on its own w...

What do you suppose might happen if the seal were to be removed? Would the blue goo begin to spread all over Asuka's body and consume or kill her? If Asuka is indeed related to Eva13/Mk9, she might be required for HIP. I'm imagining a bit of EoE grotesque fate for Asuka, where her "true self&q...

Great job Reichu! The way you worded this it all makes perfect sense and seems actually kind of obvious. The links between the 9nth angel, Asuka, mark 9, and the blue goo, can't believe I didn't notice that sooner. The effect of mk9 blue goo infiltrating Wunder seemed a bit out of place, but we've a...

I've tried pitching it to friends and came to the conclusion it's simply not for everyone. I remember watching the first 2 episodes with a friend, and he was annoyed that the sachiel battle got cut short (it continues when Shinji is in bath), and wanted to skip to see the rest of the battle. Most pe...

The way you worded this, combined with your Cycle theories, maybe he's serving the interest of his former self. Like the way Shinji is acting is nothing new to Mari, he was like that before. "The more you act like yourself, the more you play in to seele's/gendo's hands" is what I kind of g...

Mari's remark about Shinji's smell and later "because he smells different". Does she mean he smells different from others? Or smells different from before (implying some change with Shinji since she last met him, even if that change is just "started piloting eva")? Does the inter...

There are hints at a cycle (see Reichu's topics about her theories about it), Kaworu's lines, for example. I too thought about a loop when the cycle-hints started stacking up. But if you think about it, it wouldn't make sense. Too many things are actually different for it to be the same continuity. ...

I think this has merit. Having your post in mind, im imagining second impact to be like EoE for a moment, with the harpies spearing themselves on the tree of life. Pinning their cores (or its being done to them) and then it all explodes somehow (fruits of life being transferred, but halted? (to lili...

It took me this long to realize that the inverted pyramid is actually a sliced off piece of the black moon, it even has the same dark color and lunar craters... :facepalm: oh wow, thank you, I didn't realize that either (thought its shape was a bit too weird to be black moon, but as a piece of it.....

Very fun read, has been a while Ive read such an extensive theory that made me go "that makes sense" several times. It would explain a lot, mainly debunking loop-theory and offering a proper explanation for Kaworu's weird talks about meeting Shinji again. For that alone this is extremely s...

All top notch stuff, enjoyed reading it. I think I have a little addition for So basically, Angels (excluding Lilith) = Fruit of Life = body Lilim = Fruit of Knowledge = brain Notice how Mari shoots Eva9's head clean off. Since this had no effect, Mari came to the conclusion it must have been an ada...

Its been almost 2 decades ago when i first saw it. That time was full of magical nostalgia, first game consoles i owned and movies/series i saw back then. Because of the nostalgia, ive revisitted a lot of my earlier interests. Most of it was a mistake. Ive been spoiled by modern media, cgi effects a...

Ive read pretty much everything in the wiki, and what you said doesnt contradict what i said. I was talking about where the chamber is, not what it is. I know it stores souls. It is shown multiple times they can detect angels from afar (they only need to be close to confirm its "color") th...

Thats the thing, in my opinion its meant to be left ambigious. With all the religious themes and all i think you cant simply explain everything just by entepreting a single sentence. Thats why i hate nge2, it turns mythology into actual science fiction. Like, what is the chamber of guf? Is it a lite...
