>>4266491>iirc there was a Unit-06 in the rebuilds that had a fleshed out design, you could theoretically recycle that.Oh yeah I'm dumb unit 06 was probably the best Rebuild unique Eva design the films ever churned out and it has only like 10 minutes of screen time in total lmao. Such a shame too because the build up to it with it's construction on the moon with Kaworu wandering around was kino. And I wouldn't be opposed to that design coming back along side units 03 & 04
>that those were SEELE's own project, and that the whole point was to keep them secret from the rest of NERV.Yeah you seem to be right about that now that I refer to the lore. Makes me wonder then how a confrontation with the MPEs with more pilots than just Asuka & Shinji would go
>who the angels end up targeting and who ends up killing them could also be swapped around here to great effect, I think.Yeah I'd still kill for a look into the plug at what exactly happens to the pilot when Bardiel takes over. We got a glimpse of that in the Rebuilds but not enough to really see what he does. The original storyboards for 2.0 actually had a way more gruesome depiction where Asuka gets impaled by a bunch of spikes and then gets her face ripped off and used by Bardiel to talk back at her and taunt her. And in the final product she just gets cummed on and then it goes in her eye for 14 years until the events of 3.0 & Thrice.
>if the dead sea scrolls were something that had existed since antiquity then id say its plausible that the church were the ones who first discovered them and associated the descriptions of the aliens that would later be the angels and gave them their names. So perhaps the Vatican was let in on the inner workings of NERV due to their knowledge on the dead sea scrolls?Imagine the Pope or an emissary of the Vatican having to come and bless the Evas with holy water and perhaps it's explained that they have like uber secret holy water that's just like giga LCL or something.
