Someone proposed "Speccy suck-up", although even then it carries the implication that Mari sucks up to the hierarchy rather than simply being well connected.

Asuka calling Mari "Four-Eyes" instead of "Four-Eyed Crony". Neither of these are good alternatives. "Four-Eyes" sounds like Asuka is being at best insulting and at worst abelist when Thrice makes it clear they are close friends. After all who else gets to give Shikina...

Yeah, in the end it's much ado about nothing, although personally I found that some of the original lines feeling more authentic than the later Home Video version, such as Sakura talking about how nerve-wracking it is to be on the bridge during an alert, I don't see why Khara flipped out so hard abo...

What line are you talking about?

By the way, is it just the sound, or the sound and image?

Is it the famous original dub that they showed in an anime convention with people from Khara present that made many people laugh and made Khara completely change the dubbing?

There's also how Gendo said how "very soon" their plan would come to fruition as Unit 01 was awakened at the end of 2.0, fast forward to 3.0 and 14 years later, and they are still at the same step, which does imply that something has gone very wrong for everyone somewhere.. There's also th...

4.5) During the concurrent Impacts, Shinji in re-awakened Unit 01 is given an opportunity to create tang world, but refuses it in favor of the results we see. I think there's low likelihood that this'll actually be on screen since, after all, Rebuild 2.5 (and thus -46h) isn't supposed to be Shinji'...

Do we know the length of it? If the short is over 10 minutes I will be genuinely ( and pleasantly ) surprised. 10 minutes doesn't give the chance to tell anything except showing us a couple of pretty images. MsenjaKagami's estimate of 20 minute (aka an episode length) seems better to tell something...

The fact that Asuka and Midori's VAs are the special guests of this official screening pretty much confirms that -46h will have them as the main POV characters.

The teaser image showed us A3I, so we'll at least get something, still more than what we got in the movies.

I think now about the failures of infinity. Perhaps Eva01 has the spear removed, opens the Doors of Guf, and is then beheaded to kill the God and stop the ritual. Its body is then sealed and launched into space so that no one can use it again, or maybe because of the general state of mind of all th...

But third impact is about to be resumed by an angel in 3.0, so it leads me to think that third impact proper was caused by that angel (who took control of mark.06 to reach Lilith and fuse with it?) and not humans. I find it doubtful unit 01 would have caused it for that reason... Gendo's explanatio...

N3I happened at the end of Ha, stopped by a spear. So if I had to guess, the removal of the spear from Eva01 would resume the impact, leading to proper 3I. That would make Eva01, in which Shinji is absorbed, the trigger. The problem is that it opens another question: we saw the Actual Third Impact ...

I have a globe standing next to me right here in my room, and I can tell you, at this angle, the other end of the cross could never even be close to reaching Japan. Australia at best, but not even that, I'm afraid. It could reach Japan if you assume it is several thousand miles long, and further as...

But wasn’t this whole thing about Asuka trying to find her place in the world? To find her humanity? I’m sure that she doesn’t really want to be alone and she’d wished that she belongs somewhere. If a clone doesn’t wish to have emotions, then she’d just be a machine rather than a living, breathing ...

Some relevant discussion is around my comments here: Maybe it's a translation issue. The Reichu translation gives: Under this translation, Asuka isn't surprised about the dual-entry configuration, but about the presence of two pilots at that moment in Unit 13. 3.33 established that the Ayan...

Poor Unit-02. She's got a spare arm from Unit-00, what might be spare parts from Unit-05 and an Angel infection. Unit 02 still has only one arm, the one that Zeruel cut out was probably lost during N3I. I never thought of the possibility that Unit 02's green parts might be spare parts from Unit 05,...

Because there’s a new pink-hair Midori picture? No, I don’t think that’s evidence of moving Third Impact up 14 years. Seems more likely to me that she’s in a pre-flashback scene, set within a couple of days of 3.0, before a flashback to Third Impact (where we see her with brown hair, or her mom). I...

So is what happened later, that is, how her crush towards Shinji devolved to an unhealthy obsession as Asuka jealously and selfishly antagonized Rei and then when Shinji was unable to save her only to then be successful in saving another girl, Rei, while flattening Asuka's only home and nearly damn...
