"Revised philosophical vehicle" is likely correct, as well, though I don't think I've read that in print as such. The Statement. Quoting ANN: "Many different desires are motivating us to create the new 'Evangelion' film. [...] The desire to support the strength of hea...

Do you mean 'rebuilding it for the present day' in terms of animation quality and audience or do you mean something less literal? Not to butt in or anything, but I'm guessing she's talking about the producers essentially wanting to (or at least saying they want to) use the b...

It's the original Eva-01 because it went out into space, encountered a rift in time and space, and ended up on the Earth's moon in the distant future/past/alternate reality! Oooor... it's "the original Eva-01" in the sense that it's a similar unit that fulfilled the same ro...

Well, many of the hits I got on Google did mention a Japanese health drink made of pig placenta.

Rather, I'd expect that Nerv would be fully capable of properly removing and disposing of umbilical cords and placentas. :wink: Maybe they (the writers) had thought of going somewhere with that. There is a lot of mystic belief regarding the placenta after all. Quoting Encyclopedia Brita...

Oh, just noticed that Okama's drawing actually mentions the umbilical cord (へそのお), in case anyone was sceptical about what it was.

EDIT: Oh yes, and I'm guessing that the umbilical cord would have been left over from Unit 01's birth, based on stuff from the original series. Just a guess. It doesn't really matter now that the umbilical cord idea was never used. But the umbilical cord is going from Lilith's navel...

The same could be asked about the first title. Alone in what way? Socially, professionally, emotionally, spatially? It's implicit, of course. We'll have to remember that the subtitle is for the Japanese, not for native English speakers, so what do they think when they see "advance"...

"You Can (Not) Advance" doesn't sound too bad to me, an English-as-a-second-language speaker though. I'm thinking, first movie: Shinji is isolated and learns that he is "not alone". Or something. Second movie, Asuka is obsessed with the past or being number one, a...

Newtype article from the Eva-02 thread: Transcribed it for ya. Run it through a machine translator or something to get the gist of it. Seems to me that "breaking the theory" just means that it will be different than the TV series. Also: "New character(s), new mecha(s), new apostle(s),...

The ex-lava calendar is just old, bad, boring art? (Not surprising, of course.)

I hope the spoiler summary is a hoax. Not because I find it particularily bad or anything, I just don't want to be spoiled so soon. (Which makes translating a potentially spoiling summary kind of dumb, but hey. As if I could keep away!) But it does have a few ideas that could work, and I...

I can't say I'm confident in the accuracy of this translation, and I don't guarantee anything, but it may at least be a little better than a machine translation. Or only deceptively so. But whatever, it's hopefully just a fake spoiler anyway. A few days after the YASHIMA Operation, S...
