THE 2ND ANGEL!!!!

Postby nami-chan » Tue Aug 20, 2002 3:26 pm

Here read it.

Like we all know the 1st Angel is Adam and the 3rd is Angel is Sachiel but what about the 2nd Angel? We advance by steps.

1st Case: Lilith
If Lilith was the 2nd Angel, all the human beings(lilims, or sons and daughters of Lillith e the 18th Angel) would all be gods(Fruit of Concise from Adam + Fruit of Life from Lilith). But it is not like that, so Lilith can’t be the 2nd Angel.

2nd Case: Ikari Yui
If Yui was the 2nd Angel, even Rei would be an Angel and Shinji a Divinity. So Yui can’t be the 2nd Angel.

3rd Case: Ayanami Rei
If Rei was the 2nd Angel, even Lilith would automatically be an angel(I remind you that Rei is formed by Lilith and Ikari Yui’s DNA) but which? So Rei can’t be the 2nd Angel.

These 3 cases complete each other, showing that neither Lilith, Ikari Yui or Ayanami Rei can be the 2nd Angel. But the 2nd Angel has always been under our noses.. the second Angel is no other then the Eva-01.

4th Case: Eva-01
The Eva-01 generates wings of Energy like Adam, it the most powerful Eva constructed, it is the only one that awakes and get free from the armour plate, assimilating the motor S2, its the only Eva that always shows the nucleus, all the Angels ‘feel’ the Eva-01 approaching and they change there target from Adam to the Eva-01(have you ever asked why?), it has a high synchronizing with the pilot(400% with both Yui and Shinji), it regenerates itself very quickly (like the Angels) and, most of all, it manages to ‘reform’ Shinji’s body from the nucleus. And after this resoning I can confirm that the Eva-01 is the 2nd Angel.

Gunbuster : Aim for the Top by Gainax is epic-ly awesome. :D

Their latest, Abenobashi is also great. They've consistently put out excellent and interesting stuff.

Gainax is pretty good. Most of their stuff is enjoyable.

I didn't really care for Magical Shopping District... The girl in the white dress is hot tho... :p


Kare Kano, Eva, FLCL, Gunbuster... all good... ;)

When it comes to Gainax, my favorite titles that the company has done are FLCL and Daicon IV (a short opening video made by the people who eventually found Gainax).

As for Gainax anime titles I want to see more of, the two on my list are Ebichu Minds the House (for those who haven't heard of it, think of Ebichu as Hamtaro, only female and very perverted) and Magical Shopping District (Gainax + Satoru Akahori).

"Daicon IV" is cool. Especially the music, "Twilight", by Electric Light Orchestra.

The only ones from them I haven't seen yet is Ebichu and Kare Kano I believe.

In addition to what's already mentioned, they also did Nadia, which was pretty excellent overall. The pretty recent Mahoromatic which I enjoyed as well. The amazing Wings of Honneamise Movie. And the required watching Otaku No Video.

Quite an amzaing list of great stuff they have.

I only saw the first 4 eps of Magical Shopping District Abenobashi at Otakon and it's already become one of my favorites by Gainax. Eva was definitely their biggest hit (for a good reason), and Gunbuster is also one of my favorites. But another insanely good movie by Gainax is Otaku no Video. It's so great seeing a movie about otaku...

SPOILER

SPOILER















OK...

Lillith is the 2nd Angel.

Again... in the Khaballa, of which Evangelion the TV series takes its religious references from, Adam and Lillith are not Angels.

However, in the case of the TV show, Adam is the First Angel.

Rei is a clone from Yui and Rei... so Rei is nothing more than an extension of Lillith. (While I hate to bring up the movie, they make that fact plain in the movie)

Rei I is more Yui than Lillith

Rei II is sort of a balance

Rei III is more Lillith than Yui.

Lillith is also the Angel they used to copy from when they made the EVAs...

Technically, Lillith was the first Angel that was found...

They discovered Adam's location because of what they had learned from Lillith.

Now... to further point this out... In the Khaballa, Lillith is the mother of all demons... and the descriptions of her children are the basis behind the design of why the EVA units look the way they do.

See?

The Evas were made from copying Lillith.
The Evas were designed from the descriptions of Lillith's children
Lillith is the mother of all demons

The EVAs are demons

The EVAs fight Angels...


Anyway...

According to the EVA storyline, the human race are children of Lillith as well.


You have to know where to break from the old stories from the Khaballa to where Gainax manipulated these stories for their own story purposes.

Just because Adam wasn't an angel in the Khaballa... Adam IS an Angel in the series.

Lillith was NOT the mother of the human race in the Khaballa... but she IS (apparently) the mother of the human race in EVA


One almost thinks that EVE doesn't exist in Evangelion's telling of the story.

You see... in the Khablla, Adam had three wives made for him and he rejected two before God made Eve.

The 2nd bride he rejected was Lillith...

In the movie (again, I hate to bring up the movie) Gendo hopes to assume the power of "instrumentality" by taking Adam (which is fused into his palm in the movie) and coupling with Lillith... in this case by coupling with Rei who is a clone of Lillith.

Could it be that the world of Evangelion is a world where Adam accepted Lillith and thus there was no Eve?

Anyway... these are just some thoughts I wanted to voice

if you'd like to talk more about Evangelion, you can always e-mail me at unclemilo@yahoo.com.

That might explain Shinji's pussiness.
