FUYUTSUKI (OFF):“You yourself can change as well.”

IKARI (OFF):“Because what shapes you is your own mind and the world around you.”

RITSUKO (OFF):“For, this is your world.”

MISATO (OFF):“It's the form of reality that you perceive.”

Mr. Tines: Gratuitous Hallucigenia ; but no Anomalocaris. A much younger me would have identified the arrow-headed beast. EDIT: BTW I found my old dinosaurs/prehistoric creatures book, and it is a diplocaulus (an amphibian).


UrsusArctos: One of those images resembles the Neo-Atlantean flying battleships from Nadia, and we get other Hallucigenia like the Angel figure. The arrow-headed creature looks like a mashup between a lizard and a hammerhead shark (if such a thing did live on Earth, I'd put it way back in the Mesozoic Era rather than present). EDIT: Tines is right on the money, it really is a diplocaulus - and that's a creature of the Paleozoic Era, before the dinosaurs. No idea what it's doing there except for adding to the general surrealness of the scene, unless someone on the staff was a fan of the diplocaulus-esque Pokemon Dreepy or just Paleozoic lifeforms in general. Perhaps it was a byproduct of the same thought process that led to Sandalphon being modeled off an anomalocaris?


Dr. Nick: This remarkable sequence illustrates a thematic parallel. It's about the individual's potential to remake themselves, and the visuals link it to the Angels' incredible shape-shifting abilities that seem only limited by their imaginations. This is humanity's version of the same power, and that's an almost starry-eyedly optimistic message.
