What I have drawn from this is Gendo must of said something like "In reality your not Rei's replacement." That is what I think Shin-seiki wanted us to think. Now we know Gendo has compassion from the scean before his death in Ep.26'. So he could be sparing her feelings. But why Rei...

I suppose this is all pending a means to port threads from one forum to another. (I don't think ANF will care, being as they ritualistically liquidate any threads that are ignored for a year -- at least, that is the official policy.) Hopefully, that will be corrected soon enough... I...

So why this sudden urge to move the project to another forum? I understand it can be time-consuming to coordinate two different forum crews (does Evamonkey.com even have a commentary crew of its own?), but uniting them forcibly carries many risks. Perhaps it is time for it to grow to that e...

The new setup works correctly on my computer (and I only use Internet Explorer, because I'm boring), except for the top frame only appearing after all pictures have loaded. (The right scroll bars ARE there before the thing is fully loaded.) Is anyone else having any noteworthy p...

That is the greatest thing I've ever seen, and at the same time the worst.

Something that might be worth looking into. While rewatching the series I have already noticed the number 17 pop up twice. The first time was in episode 5 the time intill Rei's reactivation test was 1050 minutes, or 17.5 hours. In 6 the heat sheild will withstand the beam for 17 seconds. 17 ange...

Though are great! Something just hit me that might help the project. About two years ago me and some of my friends were going to watch all of evangelion to celebrate the release of Death and Rebirth. I had to devide the series into three parts to watch over three days. ( 9 episodes each day)...

I suggest we start dissecting episode one after we've cleared those more complicated points of the opening that require further researching (Tree of Life, Absolute Terror, fig leafs etc.). I don't think these first episodes require that much preliminary work, so slight overlapping w...

Still up for bookworming, G-spaz? http://evageeks.org/forum/images/archive_fgc/devil.gif Thoughout my two year fandom of the series I've done moderate research. Nothing that would be enough for this commentary. If Spock were here he would call me an irrational, Illogical human being. Sounds lik...

I'll take your word about how crazy his essay is, Dr. Nick, until I get my arse over to a heavy-duty library. Sometime this summer, probably. Then again, my duties for this project are overwhelming enough as it is... Jinpun's already volunteered his soul for bookworming -- can I have anybod...

O whatever the first time it was brought all together in a thing called the Bible, it was in Latin.

If you mean Roman Catholic priests, well that's the church of Rome, and Latin was the language of the Romans; but Greek was the lingua franca of the ancient world, and the language of the great majority of the people to whom the New Testament (in its original form, e.g. letters written by S...

I vote for Japanese name order! *timidly backs off* The closer we can get it to the original the better. The only way to truely understand Evangelion is the learn Japanese. Its like the Bible...the only way to read the bible the way it was ment to be is in Latin. Same thing. Originally posted on: 0...

Once again you surprise us MDwigs. Good work!

GPSPaz, I'd have to double-check it, but if I recall the Biblical account I don't think that Adam was created until the sixth day...in any case, Lilith is never mentioned (or, in my opinion, referred to) outright in the Bible, she's more of a Kabbalist thing...again, though, I&#...

I have eveything I could dream of on seven. Its mentioned 735 times in the bible. I want to see if more research is worth the time, thats why I asked. I have found some on the seven eyes of God, in the smallest book in the Bible, the book of Zakeriha. No connection made to Evangelion except for the ...

I'll back up Jinpun a bit: "God created man in his image, in the divine image he created him, male and female he created them." -Genesis 1:27 "God blessed them , saying "Be fertile and multiply; full the earth and subdue it. Have dominion over the fish of the sea, the birds o...

159 - It could also be some kind of reference to the war effort agenst the angels. Because truly humanity can't win, even if the angels are defeated third impact will happen anyway. 179 - The first thing that pops into your head when you hear Gendo say that, and see Rei still looking horribly in...

190 - Shinji expects it to fall over after a few rounds of ammo. Shinji can't know what to expect and his personality would expect the best. The fact that a simple volly with the rife doesn't defeat it comes as a disappointed shock to the unenthusiastic saviour. Asuka makes the same mistake ...
