Okay, realistically, if they make a movie trilogy, they introduce Kensuke, Toji, and Hikari as "these other classmates" who we eventually learn "are actually potential Eva pilots" In the anime, they just stop meantioning them; they don't even get a proper sendoff, and we'...

A valid question: my guess is that we know with Eva 04 they were tinkering with making their own S2 Organs.....so this is just that they were able to perfect them. ****But what role exactly did Shamshel's core play? Someone once said Shamshel's core was reused in Eva 04 but I think that'...

at least 3, possibly 4 movies, but lets say 3, and each well over 2 hours long Movie 1 - Should end with the Israfel fight with Eva 01 and 02 Introducing Asuka in movie 2 would be too late. Movie 2 - Bardiel/Eva 03, Zeruel, Arael, Armisael Movie 3 - basically episode 24 plus End of Evangelion I seri...

Yes, Asuka just looks....OFF in episode 11.

I wasn't being serious when I was saying "fanwank" I meant that in a "haha" way in reference to that fanart pic that has Anno and words underneath saying "Truth be told I don't know what the heck's going on...fanwank something" I was just kidding. Of course,...

Although very excited to have something tangible....I was kind of hoping for a second or two of footage....

Oh we're going with the "synch ratio too high so it became real" approach....I can understand that. I'll probably always just personally think it was in her mind I guess. But "high synch ratio" is enough. When in doubt, fanwank.

Well yeah but its kind of inconsistent; I mean in the Sachiel fight, Shinji's arm didn't *really* break, it just felt like it broke.

Oh by all means its drawn really well, but if you think about it "her arm splitting in half" and "her arm realistically splitting in half with blood and veins everywhere" doesn't really fundamentally change anything. Look I just personally think that it was from "her per...

Asuka can't possibly be injured. No amount of bandages can repair an arm split in two. It wouldn't be able to function after that. Actually, the way I always interpretted it, Asuka's arm never *really* split in half, we were just seeing what happened from her *perspective*. I.e. during ...

Well I think the idea of comparing how Misato's cross and grave-markers looked....well as said above, this ties into the bigger question of "how did Asuka get there" and "how did all of her wounds get bandaged like that?" Rust? I thought it was just dried blood. And the grave...

Wait, you're right, Grant said she heard it from her husband who in turn heard it from Anno. Either way its going through several people, AND even originally he just meant it as "just one cool theory you could see it as" http://www.modusproductions.com/eva-r/tiff/stats.htm --scroll to #6

SEELE doesn't "Fund" the countries battered by Second Impact, not directly; they control the United Nations, and its the UN that does that. (yeah, big difference...) Anyway, tying in to the "What does Asuka's final line mean", Tiffany Grant said that its intention...

I mean when the giant Rei/Lilith shifted into Kaworu

Although the way its interpretted, I really think potentially anyone could "come back", at the same time I like the idea that only Shinji and Asuka are left as "Adam and Eve" MAYBE it would be good to have just say, Toji and Hikari and other kids come back, no more schemeing adul...

This was THE moment during End of Evangelion, more so than any of the MP Eva fight stuff, where I shouted out "This movie is officially *way beyond* FUBAR"

I personally thought Shinji and Asuka came back a matter of minutes after Third Impact failed, literally the same day that the JSSDF attacked.
