Bianca used Esoteric Anime Trivia! It's super effective!

If you've ever wanted to do an Evangelion watch-through with footnotes -- background on the religion/mythology references, analysis of the character dynamics, trying to break down the weird things the tech does, plus a couple of reaction comics -- Shadowjack Watches Evangelion is a worthy companion.
(As of this writing, he's done the original series and the first two Rebuild movies. I Can (Not) Read 2000+ Posts Tonight to find out if he got to the third. Hasn't been touched since 2015, so I doubt he'll come back for the last one.)
...one day I want somebody to be inspired to do a thread that involved, that detailed, combing through one of my works and putting together all those little details. The Dream.
Miranda: It’s a term from Jewish mysticism — Bianca: — the chamber that holds all the souls ever created, right? The souls of the dead cycle back there to be reincarnated. If it was empty, a new body couldn’t be ensouled. Miranda: . . . Okay, I know that because I’m a half-Jewish kid who’s put more effort into studying this than into anything they covered at school. Where did you pick it up? Bianca: . . . It was in Evangelion. Patrick: I’ve heard of it too — but what would it have to do with me? An Unshaped Being doesn’t need a soul. All we need — all I needed — Cohen (flashback): Betcha I know what’s gettin’ in the way. Patrick (flashback): Master . . . ? What are you reaching for? Patrick (present): — is what he took.
