Third Impact vs. Instrumentality
Exactly where is the line to be drawn between Third Impact and Instrumentality (i.e., the Human Instrumentality Project)? A distinction is important, insofar as it determines what goes on the respectives pages... --Reichu 22:24, 8 August 2007 (EDT)
- Third Impact should be the massive Anti-A.T. Field that reduces everyone to LCL; this happened. Instrumentality is the joining of all souls into one; this did not happen. So the distinction would be that Shinji stopped Instrumentality, but did not stop Third Impact. --thewayneiac Aug. 08, 2007 22:50 EDT.
- Is it? I remember Maya going over a computer screen when Eva 01 and the hapies are forming the Sephiroth in the sky, and her saying that the conditions for Third Impact are right there. It's not just the generation of Lilith-Rei's Anti-A.T. Field, but the one generated by the flying Evas that starts it off, eye-like cloud formations and all. Lilith just takes over and finishes off what the Evas had started. --UrsusArctos 00:06, 9 August 2007 (EDT)
- My take is thus: Third Impact begins with the MPE/Shogouki/ToL bit. They begin the initial stages of the process which is confirmed by Maya. However, GNR shows up and takes over control of the proceedings. Shinji wishes for death, and Third Impact resumes under the control of Lilith. Wayneiac, I disagree that Shinji stops Instrumentality, what he stops is a PERMANENT instrumentality. We very clearly see all the Earthly souls traveling into Lilith('s Egg), and the mind trip moment afterwards is very Instrumentality-ish. In fact, we literally see Shinji and Rei/Lilith in Instrumentality (when Shinji says "this is not right"). What happens is Shinji rejects this reality, and things "return" to the beginning. My view summed up: Third Impact beginning = MPE/Sho encounter/ritual. Third Impact true = Lilith Tanging everyone. Instrumentality = Everything after that until Shinji decides to end it.

As I understand it, "Third Impact is the process by which Instrumentality is brought about". Third Impact "happened", and Instrumentality was brought about but then rejected. --V 12:48, 19 August 2007 (EDT)
