| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Kind of confusing. And the part with the Rei-clones floating around, Really creepy o_o As for the battle, good as usual. Again, REALLY creepy when Shinji's hand get's this little organic face nodule thing poking out and it starts to speak XD Only 1 angel left to fight! I expect an epic battle, and/or something really crazy and mind bending to happen. 3 episodes left! |
 |
| interesting episode. so many secrets revealed, so many questions arising. so... thats the third rei... i guess she didn't die ever since the crazy lady that invented magi choked the first one... also, asuka D= |
     |
| What. The. F***. I can't see where this anime is going to. |
| What. Was. That. ? Rei is a clone and the dummy plug is powered by Rei clones? |

| my synopsis of this episode: WTF!!!! Rei was a clone!!!! creepy dummy plug XD |
| "Every man shall reap what he has sown, from the highest lord to the lowest gutter rat. And some will lose more than the tips off their fingers, I promise you. They have made my kingdom bleed, and I do not forget that" |
Cero said: I kind of suspected something after that explosion and you could see the blood in the plug that there would be no way she would be able to come back from that, but yet she still did. At this point in time I thought of the word "clone", but then quickly dismissed that seeing the tech they have in that supposed 2015 and then a few minutes later, it shows them. More ways for them to fuck with my mind...3 eps left :( I was thinking the same thing too. I was hoping it's not what I think but...well. D: Rei was a clone all along o.O |
| I always thought there was something funny about Rei's background, but this was unexpected. All those floating Rei was just WTF. |
| This episode is just to fuck with ur mind. I actually tought that the real Rei was inside the Eva, then 5 secs later i tought: "Meh, probably its a clone", i guess i was right... then that scene of those floating Reis was just... seriusly WHAT THE FUCK? And as always i just wanna smash Shinji's head with a fucking hammer. Im still waiting for the 'wich' is SEELE real purpose. Is getting annoying. |
| Rei is a clone and the dummy plug is powered by Rei clones!!! wha a hellt?? |
| My reaction: I fucking love this show. Especially this last half. |
| "Yes, I have been deprived of emotion. But not completely. Whoever did it, botched the job." - Geralt of Rivia |
| Freaky episode... especially the part where Rei and Shinji was fighting against the angel. |
| ...um o.o Seriously, I suspected Rei of being a clone (of Yui in some way, maybe?) since forever, but that was just creepy. But what I really want to know is how's Touji. I miss him D: |

| NOOO Rei...you were just a product in my mind :'( Seriously that last part was fucked up, Rei.... |
 |
| Poor Rei, or whatever she really is. The dummy system was just a cloning system. |
 |
| Soooo... Ikari made Ritsuko Seele's universal ho instead of Rei? And this anime continues to um, shock and scar me >_> |
 |
| Love makes people very stupid. Some guy doesn't love you so you do stupid, crazy shit. How typical. :eyeroll: |
| Scrumptious. (*: I will not mind re-watching this series over and over. |
 |
| Wait..... What? I think I need to rewatch this. |
| It was too confusing again~ Seeing all those Rei floating in that thing was creepy~ I still don't really know where is this going~ |

Divine_Judgement said: I've stopped even trying to understand what the hell is going on. How was this confusing? It showed that Rei is not a normal human, she is a clone of Shinji's mother and her soul can be re-implanted every time she dies. |
| These guys are all mad. They're like the mad scientists of the future. They try to obtain something that they shouldn't obtain by using science. I feel sorry for them. Misato was right. Anyone who's related to Evangelion will experience a tragedy or misfortune. As for Rei being a clone. I knew that ever since I saw her. Most of the person I see in an Anime without any emotions like her are usually clones. A special clone that is since she's the only one who had a soul while others didn't. Plus, I didn't expect those clones to be the main source of the dummy plug. So that's how Eva-01 killed that Angel with no mercy, because the ones controlling it were clones with no souls. What really bugged me was that dead sea scroll those Seele guys were talking about. They knew how many Angels were needed for their final plan to work. I'm wondering what is it. |

It showed that Rei is not a normal human, she is a clone of Shinji's mother and her soul can be re-implanted every time she dies. Yeah, that's simple. But there's still something I don't get. Doesn't she remember anything that happened before she "died"? Or she just doesn't remember that exact moment? Who the hell is Seele? The guy's starting to annoy me. Also, Commander Ikari didn't only know the Second Impact would happen before it did but he (and the comitee) know how many Angels there are. That's bugging me. I'm starting to think that the children, having as many issues as they do, are still the sanest people in this show. Guess it's cause Rei doesn't have a collective memory where all her experiences pool. That's about all I can answer =/ Since Akagi destroyed all the Rei's, does that mean that there's only one Rei remaining now? Also disturbing how SEELE knows exactly how many Angels there's gonna be, and are actually preparing for a third impact. These assholes better get taken out. 3 more to go... |
 |
| This plot is just too DEEP. |
 |
| The only part I didn't understand was Ritsuko being naked in front of SEELE. Rei was supposed to be there but Bastard Father threw Ritsuko to the proverbial wolves instead. Penguins have souls. |
| What. The. Fuck? |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| Its near just wait a little longer |
 |
| So rei a clone of shinjis mom. Well that explains why shes a motherly figure to him. |
 |
| I really hate this anime. Yeah, in the same time I love it, but my love is compound with hatred. How can they do this to such an important character? I really kind of expected Rei to be clone, but the whole story is even more twisted than I imagined it could be. Not just that, they released another clone of Rei. This is just unforgivable. Even if Rei was just a clone she developed a soul during her relationship with other pilots. And now we see a soulless Rei. Way too twisted. |
  |
| I had a feeling Rei was a clone. I'm not sure why, though. Just the ''clone'' kind of person, I guess. But, at the same time, I've become pretty confused. What was the point of Rei in the first place? Was she just really good at being a doll? Or a pilot? Or what? And what's happening with Asuka? Is she fired, or something? Slowly falling downhill for me. Looking forward to the next! |

Also disturbing how SEELE knows exactly how many Angels there's gonna be, and are actually preparing for a third impact. These assholes better get taken out. 3 more to go... What strikes me is that what Rei does know...Rei III knows that she is the third incarnation. It would explain Rei's lack of value for herself. There is one memory that remains in her head, that she can be easily replaced. No matter what version she is, that his her dominant thought process. Also, Rei III tried to break Gendo's glasses, Gendo needed Rei II for something, but all of those memories are wiped clean. We'll see how the Rei III/Gendo relationship progresses... |
| been watching the director's cut from episode 21 and will watch the rest only in director's cut, seems to be a lot better.. anyway, I dunno how to feel about it.. still don't really understand (did they explain it?) how they're able to 'transfer' the soul to a new clone of Rei, guess I'll just keep watching.. |
| I liked Misato saying at the end that all who are connected to Eva experience tragedy. It's too true. |
| Damn what's up with these last few episodes they're dramatic like hell! The battle was quite epic but damn was it sad, Rei really died but we do got a confirmation that she's a clone, and damn there where many clones. But now they're all destroyed, does that mean if Rei dies she won't have a new clone or is there still chance for her later on? But damn Asuka not being able anymore to operate the Eve, she must be really have a problem with herself... Good story though but damn what Riska said against Shinji about his mother... Much death these episodes! |
 |
| I'm still confused what exactly is Adam. I understand the Rei thing but how can EVA be part human? Isn't Eva part of an angel or adam? Or is adam the first angel that caused the first/second impact? |
| Hmmmmmm, i'll keep going with it. Don't want to over think anything |
