will be arriving.”Woman (OFF) “Direct force on standby in its current
position until a pseudonym is created.”
thewayneiac: Gee, who can he mean?
Reichu: I'm surprised Fuyutsuki was in the dark about Shinji, considering how chummy he and Gendo are most of the time. Not to mention Fuyutsuki is one of the few characters who really knows what's going on.
MDWigs: I think this is probably just one of those continuity gaffs. Fuyutsuki should have known that Shinji would be theeventual pilot (since he knows who is in EVA-01), but they needed someone to ask the question.
Hexon.Arq: Maybe Gendo just forgot to inform Fuyutsuki that the kid would be arriving that very day.
OMF: Or perhaps Shinji is simply NOT a topic for discussion with Gendo.
