one thing im still confused about is
like i kno that evas are basically modeled after angels but im still....what are aNgels
and why did they cause the second impact if that is even explained idek
i feel like i have so many QUESTIONS??? ABOUT THINGS THAT IM STILL NOT SURE ABOUT
im sure there are more i will think of
oh yeah during EoE.....did everyone get saved......like did shinji save everyone
cas things looked pretty fucked up
i dont even know about the angels i feel like i sort of remember them kind of explaining it but not really
my understanding is that at the end everyone is in the
except asuka and shinj and maybe some ppl who didnt go into the soup out there in the world
and people can come back out when they are ready to have individual consciousnesses again
oh yo i wanna talk about eoe theories
because I have a Really Good idea of what's goin down there
also i thought i read somewhere that the anime ending is whats going on psychologically during instrumentation and eoe is whats going on like
in... reality??? the phsyical???
well about as good of an idea as you can have about eva
you know the ending of the anime is like basically a psychological mind trip whereas eoe there's actually shit going on lmfao
basically chronologically it's
ps julie i'm adding you right now
eoe, instrumentality happens, the mind trip is shinji's mind during instrumentality, shinji decides to let the world live, omedetou
OH i didnt realize that shinji literally saves everyone
yeah i figured that was what was going on
idt sara has watched rebuilds yet but basically my guess is that
he restarts the world, literally
but everyone retains a tiny amount of knowledge from the previous timeline
bc in rebuild people seem to just kind of know some stuff they shouldn't
and the character development seems like it kind of already happened a bit and all that
and then kaworu comes along with his "this time" shit like what the fuck do you mean THIS TIME
SO my guess is that the world keeps getting rebuilt like a lot and kaworu is in on the whole thing or something
bc i know ishida was like
he's an angel and like living on the moon or s/t
so i guess it just happens over and over bc shinj keeps going "wait ok lets not fuck up everything" but he doesnt unfuck up everything enough
unless i guess rebuild is him UNFUCKING UP!?!?!?!?!?!?
WHICH EXPLAINS WHY HE'S SO
STEREOTYPICAL SHOUNENEN AND NOT FUCKED UP SEINEINGISAHG;LASHD;FLSAD
THATSHSLG SO FUCKING GODODOODODODO
FOMFGGGHL;GHHASDF FUCKING
ANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
YEAH LIKE HE'S TRYING TO MAKE EVERYTHING RIGHT THIS TIME
and that's why there's like
I HAVE SO MUUUUUUUUUUUUCH MOOOOOOOOOOORE FUCKING RESPECT FOR THE REBUILDS NOW YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
bc instead of toji becoming a pilot and jsut like dying unceremoniously
mari is like "i'm gonna be fun and happy moe bait"
toji is the kid in the jumpsuid
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
IVE BEEN SITTING IN MY CHAIR SCREAMING YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FOR LIKE THE PAST THREE MINUTES
THE WHOLE TIME KAWORYU IS T=LIKE ENCOURAGING SHINJI AND HELPING HIM REBUILD THE WORLD
WHEN I WATCHED THE REBUILD W/ MAGONI WE WERE COMPLAINING ABOUT HOW STEREOTYPICAL SHOUNEN IT IS BUT NOW I SEE YOOOOOOOOOO
BC HE WANTS HIM TO BE A HAPPY LIL CHILD
THATS SOME FUCKING META ASS CHARACTER ARC
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK
SO I LOVE THIS THEORY BECAUSE IT BASICALLY IMPLIES THAT ALL OF EVA IS AN EPIC GAY LOVE SAGA BETWEEN SHINJI AND KAWORU
OIMfg every time I think of this theory it makes more and more sense to me and I just wanna explode n roll around in eva feelings
like all doubts i had about eva
im so inspired i'm going to write my entire grad school application on eva
we all just need to sit in a circle and hold hands and cry about eva
ok so like yeah i havent seen anything of the rebuilds
so at the end of eoe like....is it like higu said........
everyone is sort of waiting to come back or w/e...
everyone returns because shinji wishes for them to come back
it's some intense haruhi shit like the fate of the world depends on shinji
which is why kaworu tells him that he's so much mroe important than he makes himself out to be
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! EVA
i still dont know what ANGELS ARE!!!!!!!!
I mean I kind of know but I kind of don't
like humans are the children of lilith and the angels are of adam
so they explain the angels as what humans could have become
they just say it's "the first human"
it's that little embryo looking thing that gendo eats
he eats adam so that he can take the flesh of adam into his body as a way to like merge lilith and adam flesh
in order to start instrumentality
WHEN THE FUCK DOES HE EAT AN EMBRYO
that might have been only in the rebuild oop but I definitely remember it happening
I know they at least show the embryo thing in the original and say it's adam
also idk how you guys feel about gendo but
I don't evean wanna talk abot gendo because I will get angry
i am still a lil unclear abt everything he did but
ik some people love gendo not because they think he's a good dude but bc he's fucked up and they like that but I just
he seems pretty frickin selfish
he's literally the most selfish being ever
when he was revealed to be like....completely in the know of what was going on
gendo is such a fok like I can't even describe it any way iother than he is a fok
he took yui's family name
i think there's some asshole reason he did that but still it's like A Cool
bc he's like obsessed w yui lmfao
clearly gendo things what he is doing is right but he's still a selfish fuck who does terrible things so it's like
can u not turn us into soup
fooyoosooki you are taking this wingman thing a little too far
OKAHY I JSUT GOTTA SAY things i just gotta say somethign right nw im gonna throw it out into this evangelion plurk
im gonna be real im gonna be honest
i dont care abt rebuild............
i just like... im glad that evangelion is alive and thriving and like some fucked up cultural icon but i
would be happy w/ series + eoe and then nothing else
now that im looking at it in a meta way i think it's a lot cooler but i still don't like the stereotypical shounen direction of it
what's the point if it's going to lose the ~essence of evangelion~
its existence as part of a larger character arc is really cool but i didn't actually like the movies beyond them being pretty
i dont want anime played straight bc anime is horrible i need deconstructions
of course im going to watch the third one because??? well animated kaworu????????????
sarah im going to get a cat and name him kaworu
and take pictures of him every day
and never let you pet him
I WILL STEAL THAT CAT ADN RUN
you will ruin it for everyone
IT IS THE WAY IT'S MEANT TO BE
"sarah thanks for catsitting kaworu, were is he" "i have bad news" "not again"
im not too crazy about the rebuilds tbh
but ill probably watch them
the rebuilds are just really......okay
ok I liked 1.0 but 2.0 was just w/e
No I missed this plurk nooooo
okay i am back at mydorm and im gonna talk about the vas
i actually liked rebuild if only for the animation, like seeing the eva babbies in HD bootiful fuckass animation was great
i also support the theory you guys are talking about!!
that shinji done fucked up and restarted the world and its happening agian
there was screencap comparison between rebuild and eva scenes and it was rad as heck and supported the theory
im also interested to see wht th efuck anno is doing with rebuild?
ALSO ALSO i was under the impression that shinji didnt originally save everyone he just restarted the world with him and asuka... more before i saw the rebuilds tho
and as far as i know the only thing they explain about angels in it is the show someone mentioned already, about it being born from adam and adam and lilith are just These Things That Exist For God Knows Why
I looked it up on the internette abt the angels and I'm even more confused than I was before lol
adam and lilith are like the "seeds of life/humanity" whatever and adam+ his children are the angels
and kaworu is the final angel but also the vessel for the remains of adam's soul so he's like his own mother and offspring.....
all of what I read was really vague and weird like nobody knows what the fuck an angel actually is
also like lilim was the first child of adam and therefore an angel but the descendants are human???/
also what I thought was kinda interesting was that the word they use in the japanese is actually apostle
and angel and apostle both mean messenger so they're supposed to be the messengers of god or some shit
IT'S ALL RLY CONFUSING IDK
oh sophia and i were talking about this a while ago
it was really weird it felt like they were implying a loop but idk
i know that humans are an angel themselves or some shit???
i dont know about kaworu he's just
we were talking about how the eva's have ppls moms
except for rei in which she can sync w/ it bc she's from an angel in the first place/she had a really hard time snycing???? so so much for that lol
and we came to the conclusion:
"I GUESS EVERYONE IS HIS MOM"
"HE CAN SYNC WITH EVERYONE"
apparently kaworu can have whatever sync ratio he wants with an eva, according to what I was reading anyway
I guess humans are kind of angels but kind of NOT
like they said angels are what humans could have been
wao I don't wanna think abt angels I just wanna think about kaworu and shinji touching butts
but I guess you can't really talk about kaworu without talkin about angels SO
the only kind of angel kaworu is is the angel of my heart
ive had the wiki for angels, lilith and adam open since yesterday i will read and come back 2 u
ik what angels are isn't really of importance to the meaning of the series
but theyre such an integral part I GOTTA KNOW!!!!
I read some of the wiki yesterday but when I read abt kaworu I was just like bye
it was like "it is unclear why kaworu takes such an interest in shinji" like maybe he just likes him n finds him interesting what a concept
I don't trust dedicated wikis ever since I read the yugioh one which got some crucial facts wrong but that is a STORY FOR ANOTHER DAY
wiki also says that humans are an angel
and kaworu refers to them as a whole by an angel's name
the other angels are just alternate possibilities for what humans could have become
it's just that the angel of which humanity was composed
not like there were people and the angel joined them but that is where humans come from
i dont know when/where they explained this but magoni and i had a moment where we rewatched a part a bunch of times and then he ""figured it out""/proposed that theory
