164

EVA-00, her lower body frozen in special bakelite. The bottom of the Cage is filled with water.

SE <<>>

Ikari (OFF):“"There is no one else who can make the Evas move. As long as they live, that is what I'll have them do."”

Ritsuko (OFF):“"With no regard to what the children may want?"”

tv33: However, his concern for Rei, as important as it may be to him, only extends so far. "The ultimate goal" transcends everything else. In the path to its achievement there is no right or wrong, no compassion or intentional cruelty, just necessity.


Reichu: Amazing how, without any power being supplied to their muscle tissues, Evas are able to hold poses flawlessly for months at a time. (Wait… Didn't I already rant about this?) Notice here how EVA-00's right arm is going through the wall; as you might remember, we saw her hand on the other side in the previous episode.

This is perhaps one of the only times where Ritsuko sounds like a human being and not the cold, scientific bitch that she is normally. Maybe someone else wants to go into it more, though.


Mr. Tines: With regards to the bakelite, this is one of my friction points. Call the stuff "unobtanium" and I'm happy. Call it after something real, then it should be like that stuff — and Eva bakelite isn't. Real bakelite is "cured" from the liquid precursor under heat and pressure, and in its pure form is very brittle. The brownish bakelite that made up the insulators of much early-mid 20th century electrical equipment is actually resin-soaked sawdust, with the wood fibres providing the strength. This makes it pretty much unlike the pour-and-set stuff that Nerv uses. That said, I just mentally replace the references to it with something appropriate to the context.


thewayneiac: Ah, but you see, Nerv is using special bakelite!
