Stage greeting with Anno, Tsurumaki, Maeda and Ogata

[FelipeFritschF]

Similarly to the one with the cast in March 28, a live talk with the directors (and Ogata) has just started:

Similarly to the cast talk, we'll probably have a decent summary of it in proper Japanese sites soon.

(Through auto-translate) This article came out recently from the stage greeting with only mentioning that according to Director Maeda, there's an incomplete body of the copied/clone of Kaworu accompany with the original Shikinami clone in the Unit-13. Of course, it's still very recently and currently in process of full analysis of the stage greeting and the new info, so we'll have to wait until more details, translation, & analysis are provided.

What?!

[Mr. Tines]

I didn't post Yamashita's tweet on the subject in every thread, but maybe I should have. See here.

What?!

There is a translation to Yamashita twitter by Nuclear Lunchbox:

"We only said so much at the discussion today. In Shin Evangelion, this is what's actually inside the reactivated Unit 13's entry plug. Inside the LCL, the remains of what used to be him are floating about. Even with his soul gone, his body was reconstructed to allow Unit 13 to move, and his fingers sometimes flutter on the control keys."

His soul is gone?
I thought that Unit 13 being an Adams (or the Adam or God or the owner of the fifth cross) had absorbed Kaworu soul and this union made him the 13th Angel that was never supposed to exist.
Also I thought OG Shikinami was the soul inside unit 02 to allow her to pilot and once unit 13 (now the thirteen Angel + a surviving Adams) absorbed unit 2 that where OG Shikanami confronted that Asuka we got to know in the rebuild
I also thought Kaworu was the soul of an Adam (possibly the key of N which can be the same that happended was in NGE where they experimented by putting some human genes in Adam splitting it into the embryo and Kaworu soul), I also thought Mark 6 was an Adams and Unit 1 I dunno I just can’t leave the OG idea that it was the clone of Lilith
Since it would beautiful to imagine Gendo inside Adams body and Yui inside a Lilith clone body. By killing themselves with the Spear or Gaius it would look like a rebirth by killing the old Gods and reuniting the lovers all in once.
Adam Vessels have an at field Adams seem to not have one
And the ships. Are they the four missing lances?
Too much confusion

[Konja7]

His soul is gone?

Kaworu's soul seems to be trapped in Eva-13.

However, this soul doesn't inhabit Kaworu's body/cadaver anymore. Gendo is using this souless body to pilot Eva-13.

His soul is gone?
I thought that Unit 13 being and Adams (or the Adam or God or the owner of the fifth cross) had absorbed Kaworu soul and this union made him the 13th Angel that was ever supposed to exist.

I think that Gendo's plan was to reunite Eva 13 with Kaworu's soul in order to awaken the true powers of the unit, but used a Dummy Plug to control it. Just like the Dummy Plugs used by the MP Evas in the original NGE, this Dummy Plug uses Kaworu's data that was reconstructed from this corpse. I call it Dummy Plug to make it easier to understand, but there is no confirmation if this is indeed a Dummy Plug or other technology, despite the concept being similar just like Unit-01's Dummy Plug uses soulless Rei corpses.

Also I thought OG Shikinami was the soul inside unit 02 to allow her to pilot and once unit 13 (now the thirteen Angel + a surviving Adams) absorbed unit 2 that where OG Shikanami confronted that Asuka we got to know in the rebuild

Interesting Theory. Some people are saying that OG Shikinami is dual-piloting Eva-13 with Kaworu's Dummy Plug, but I didn't see the movie, so I can't confirm.

Since it would beautiful to imagine Gendo inside Adams body and Yui inside a Lilith clone body. By killing themselves with the Spear or Gaius it would look like a rebirth by killing the old Gods and reuniting the lovers all in once.

I like to think that too.
