What the FUCK are Angels?

>>153551183
Lovecraftian abominations who once ruled the Earth but were ousted by humanity and have come back looking for revenge

Actually Apostles.

>>153551183
celestial beings trying to merge with lithin to begin an impact that will merge all life into one entity

basically heaven.

Also, gendo and the angels goals in the end were basically the exact same thing.

Humans were animals that ate the fruit of knowledge. Angels ate the fruit of life. Or something like that.

Really the only correct answer is Anno was fucked in the head.

>>153551263
>Also, gendo and the angels goals in the end were basically the exact same thing.
but no?
I always thought that Angels were the good guys and were trying to prevent the Third Impact from happening


also are any other medium having the concept of Third Impact?

>>153551183
Immigrants?

>>153551183
Some sort of primordial Avatar of different lineages of life each trying to reach Lilith and restart life on Earth in their own image.

Aliens. Enough said.

I think we'd know if we had giant mindraping telepathic space monsters picking fruit or giant drillcubes mowing our lawns.

>>153551263
>merges with Lilin

This gives me a new theory, it wasn't Shinji that caused third impact but that angel at the end of 2.22 merging with Rei 2.

>>153551307
Angels are just aliens trying to take over a planet that's rightfully theirs. Eva is just about two species fighting over a planet to live on.

>>153551307
nah kowaru was an angel that started the "4th impact"

so angels and humans have the same intentions but we'll probably find out what makes them different in the final movie,.

Kaworu was a tool for SEELE, and Gendo wanted to get rid of him asap. He was very happy to see Misato kill Kaworu.

>>153551183
Adam's children.

Aliens possessing the Fruit of Life, descendants of the FAR.

>>153551376
No, Shinji definitely started the third impact but was stopped by Kaworu. Then something happened and the third impact continued. Probably Mark 06 fusing with Lilith. This was also stopped by NERV but long after the world was already fucked.

>>153551263
Humanity is a "fake" successor, a fake inhabitant of planet Earth. The world was made by Adam for his sons, the Angels but Adam was then sealed and a "fake" successor, Lilith, took over the control of the planet and inhabited it with humans.

What the angels want is to merge back with Adam in order to have him basically terraform Earth back to what it was supposed to be.

Of course it was all but a ruse, the game was set-up in a way that an angel would merge with Lilith, a "forbidden union". Kaworu notices it and questions the morality of the act.

Seele wanted the merge of the souls and to become a godly entity. Gendou wanted to deviate such plan in order to live with his waifu forever.

The end.

>>153551667
Will the FAR be ever properly addressed in the rebuilds?

Is the giant structure beyond the door of guf in eva 3.0 just an elaborate prank?

>>153551696
Why do these godlike beings even want Earth? It's a rock....

>>153551667
but doesn't impacts are created by angels merging with avatars of Lilith or Adam? Hence why angels kept attacking tokyo 3 and Unit 01.

Unless that aspect of the story has changed.

>>153551771
Impacts are caused by anything merging with Lilith or Adam. Humans are angels and by extensions Evas are as well. Plus, Mark 6 was contaminated by an angel at some point.

>>153551767
Adam and Lilith are basically terraformers, it's their work. They spread life.

Many of the secrets about them are unknown, unfortunately. We do know that the spears act as control rods, that's what they are made for (Lilith impaled Adam with her spear).

>>153551825
Humanity wasn't "bad" at all. Both the humans and the angels wanted to survive and living together was against their very nature.
The world were angels are meant to live in is hostile and completely alien to humans, I can only imagine the same goes in reverse.

>>153551767
They want to merge with Lilith, to basically restart everything and become more powerful. Think of the High Elves trying to destroy the towers in Elder Scrolls and becoming Aedra once again.

>second impact is literally weeks before 9/11
>third impact is literally weeks befrore Trump Election
what did Annon mean by this

>>153551921
Angels do not want to merge with Lilith, they all believe they are going to papa Adam.

>>153551938
this reminds me
>that classical a capella music when the angel mind rapes Azuka
that was cringe as fuck, the music made it seem like it was played for fun / a parody

>>153551969
But they were attacking Tokyo 3 which has Lilith in Central Dogma and clones of Lilith. Adam wasn't in NERV's possession until Episode 8.

In any event, the angels want to achieve godhood by causing Lilin extinction and impacts.

>Asuka has a God Complex

What's the matter? Too deep for you?

>>153551848
So impacts can be caused with any aspect of Lilith or Adam? I'm surprised that Asuka hasn't caused an impact since she has Angel DNA in her.

So how they they predict all the angels and stuff? How did they know there would be exactly that many angels?

>>153552339
Dead sea scrolls. Have you even watched the show?

>>153552357
But where did it come from?

>>153551696
>Lilith took control

No. Its all about the Lances of Longinus. Lilith lost her's when her Moon crashed into the earth. so Adam's (noticing another Seed of Life) went into action and restrained Adam so that both his children and Lilith's children would not exist at the same time. The world wasn't made by Adam, he just got there before Lilith and was unlucky enough to be cucked by his own Lance. Thats all

>>153552373
The dead sea scrolls are real anon

>>153552024
that was terrifying, what are you on about

>>153552024
I actually really liked that scene

>>153552440
Oh sorry, I had forgotten that one of the lances was destroyed.
>Lilith arrives before Adam could do his shit
That was really a terrible work day for Adam-kun but I'm sure he'll keep doing his best!

Was it ever explained what Lilith did after doing her job? Did they just found her inside the soon-to-be-geofront? Do we know why she's motionless even without the lance piercing her?

So what's an AT field?

>>153552727
A barrier all living beings possess and that has a function of creating individuals and stabilizes their forms. Without ATFields, all life merges together.

Powerful beings can manipulate their ATFields and turn them into actual barriers.

It also has a metaphorical sense: we, as humans, need to learn to tune down our atfields enough to meet other people but not so much we lose ourselves. Angels which through the entire series are shown to be completely unable to comunicate and understand us have the stronger ATfields of them all.

Absolute Territory is also the name of the best thing ever.

>>153552727
Spiritual barriers projected by one's soul. All sentient beings posses one, and without it, one ceases to be an individual, which is why Giant Naked Rei cast an anti-AT field over the earth, to break down the barriers separating people into individuals so they could live as one hivemind existence without individual consciousnesses

Fucking EVA fans.

>>153551879
>The world were angels are meant to live in is hostile and completely alien to humans, I can only imagine the same goes in reverse.
angels were supposed to live in earth, lillith crashing there was a mistake that was solved by deactivating adam, humans reactivated adam which seeded the angels on earth

>>153553337
>genuine psychological term
I never said that, I only expressed in words what's the very basic theme of the entire anime. The entire story focuses around the hedgehog's dilemma and the ATfield is just another of many other metaphors for it.

People focus on aliens and stuff but the meat of the story is Shinji coming to terms with himself.

>>153553362
The world as intended for the angels is what it looks like down at the south pole. I was under the impression Adam and Lilith can terraform planets, isn't that what the third impact is in the first place?

was Shinji so troubled just because he was gay ?
it's pretty clear he is totally fine and happy when the gay angel hits on him

>>153553432
I think he was dismayed because of other people abusing the term. You didn't say anything about autism

>>153553499
He was happy because he was being friendly to him, which few people ever did, not because he wanted his meat rod.

>>153553432
>>153553777
I was quoting the psychological rumor some Eva fans made in ye early days. Also beautiful trips.

>>153553474
As adam awakened it generated an ati-AT field to "reset" life, that was what fucked up the south pole

>>153553826
But he was blushing even before he was being friendly to him.
Think he wanted the meat rod.
