I tripped so hard on a combination of psychedelics and dissociatives once that at one point I could not process, comprehend, or even recognize human features at all. I covered away when I looked in the mirror or at friends. Humanoid shapes were completely abstract to me. I came to wonder later on if that's partly what they meant in religious texts about not being able to comprehend certain things
To throw another layer onto that, the human brain is hardwired to comprehend the human face, we have functionality dedicated specifically to the comprehension of human faces. If that were not the case we wouldn’t see human faces in non-human objects, as these are false positives in our facial recognition software.

People often say that shinji is a crybaby, but man, i don't think that there is a lot of kids that will not cry when literally whole world lying on their shoulders
My issue with him was never that he was a crybaby - I actually scolded my room mate for calling him that & was like "he's only like,15 & is regularly having to deal with absolutely horrifying, traumatic things in order to save the damn world, let the boy cry, damn" - my issue was him being kind of wishy-washy on whether he would continue on that path or say eff it & leave, but I also understand where that comes from too & I can't honestly blame him for that either.
What's weird is the fixation of some artists in Japan with youth, the chosen kids is just an excuse for some weird fantasy. I love this show but I feel many people I recommend it to feel a disconnect, me included, with a teenager's drama when you'd expect some mature decisions when dealing with apocalypse.

Gaghiel: the first aquatic angel, making the evas got a difficulty To deal with it since they arent built to adept on water. Israfel: learning that there are more than 1 evas is active, israfel can split into 2 as a reason for a balance fight. Sandalphon: an angel who is exclusively able to resist lava heat so it can battle Asuka with advantage. Matarael: continuing the mission, matarael was designed to breach the place with its acid similar on how ramiel did. Sahaquiel: as the biggest angel ever, sahaquiel was a literal bomb falling from the sky in hope the evas along with Tokyo 3 will get obliterated by the big explosion. Ireul: for once, ireul was the first angel to not pyschally attack an Eva, instead it hacked nerv's computering system like most digital viruses do. Leliel: the angel was made to trick evas thinking that the sphere is a real body, while consuming them from below with the thanks to its anti-AT field (the angel itself can only be explained with highly order mathematics and physics, which nerv couldn't). Bardiel: bardiel was tested to corrupt an Eva (unit 3) to feel controlling it. because of this, unit 1/Shinji was struggling really hard since "Eva shouldn't fight with other Eva" along with his friend the one who piloted it. Zeruel: after a long time, a new brawler angel appeared. Zeruel was gifted with its strong folded arms capable to decapitate evas and assault nerv's base with ease (basically samshel but better). Although its core is exposed, it has a layer which will be closed to protect the core. Arael: realizing evas can't go up to space, arael was created to stay there and attack evas with its beam capable to read the pilot's mind so it wouldn't necessary to pyschally damage the Eva Armisael: Armisael was likely a combination of bardiel and arael due to its ability to corrupt both Eva and their pilot. Thanks to its thin body, armisael is easy enough to avoid evas attack. Similar to sachiel, it can self destruct itself in term to destroy the Eva. Tabris: as the last resort of adam's children, tabris was designed to be a human sized and shaped angel to hide his identity. Successfully infiltrate nerv's base, tabris continued his plan to retrieve Adam in terminal dogma, which was failed due it was lilith that nerv kept. With arael caused asuka's breakdown and armisael caused rei 3 death, tabris was responsible for shinji's biggest mental breakdown from eps 24-26.
@@sefatsilverlake3816 yeah while the text is cool it's absolutely incorrect and misinformed the angels are basically humanities that could've been each with it's own different result of evolution and their abilities reflect the possible nature of those would be humanities with nerv always fighting with our humanity's strongest tool being ingenuity
Did anyone else notice how the angel of the womb symbolically takes the form of an umbilical cord? Only to attach itself to the part of the Eva where anatomically the belly button would be.
yea tbh even tho i find it to be the most interesting the pregnancy body horror combined with the infection body horror makes it one of the most grotesque angels. which is crazy because it doesnt even have a fixed form. but it is literally supposed to be an angel that can manifest the desires of the consciousness that it has merged with (reis desire to be with shinji physically manifesting in the form of the white snake rei) so being able to absorb and manipulate biomass does kind've make it a mother angel, or at the very least a creator. tbh i think its ability to empathize with rei was the most interesting thing about it. it is the only angel in the series who has directly communicated with humanity and it is not even threatening, if anything it is confused about its own emotions and trying to share it with a human.
Honestly what I find most fascinating after reading up on all the angels, is how not all of them were truly evil. Hell, some of them merely wanted to understand humanity. Too bad their methods were potentially deadly. It makes you wonder how the other angels interacted with one another. Were there disagreements and infighting amongst them? Did some believe humanity ought to be wiped out entirely, while others merely were curious or as seen in at least 2 cases on screen, felt bad for humanity? Honestly if there were different factions amongzt the angels like it seems, its lucky the last two, number 17 and number 2 pitied us, otherwise, we would have been without a doubt eliminated
@@drx737The one that mind-probed Asuka is Arael, also, even Misato says "Are the Angels trying to understand us?!" Or smth like that when Arael's mind-probing was reported

@@mr.chipotle9716 the last two episodes are the weird stuff happening in Shinji's mind while hes fused with Lillith/Rei He leaves the fanta sea after everyone clapping and saying "congratulations" Same happens to Asuka and Misato (she left to somewhere else)
Love at how with the first angel, Shinji’s mom was like: let’s not kill my son ok? But with many other angels she went severely afk 💀 until Zeruel, where she went primal and remember her son was in the eva. Also, the crying baby sound when Sandalphon evolved? 🫠
To me, Leliel and Arael unsettle me the most. Its just the fact that compared with the other angels, they not only do not have an *obvious* sapience or even sentience, but also because of their abstract design and how they break the laws of reality so unlike the others. Leliel is an entity that exists solely within complex mathematical principles, and Arael simply looms and spontaneously attacks someone's subconscious. Also doesn't help that Leliel is just a colossal monochrome circle instead of something comprehensive and Arael... just look at it
Actually they are some of the smartest angels. Both did not wish to wipe out humanity but to understand it. Unfortunately their methods are quite deadly.
Armisael also fits into this. The design of all her forms (helical ring, angel tower and Rei spirit) are amazing, and she doesn’t seem to want to fight. She even talks to Rei and about their shared fear and loneliness. I find her to be very compelling.
I immediately burst into laughter upon hearing "Hallelujah" playing for real in the actual scene like if someone just started micspamming in real life before realizing what was going on. Still couldn't help but feel a sense of Schadenfreude in the moment at the apparent absurdity of this enemy. The fear would come later.
Yeah. While I understand its purpose in the scene (I think?) It just felt so tonally incorrect with the psychological torture Asuka was undergoing in that moment.
Fun fact: Dragons are actually supposed to be the old OLD Cherubims meaning that somehow *humans managed to kill off the 2nd highest choir in God's arsenal*
@@blakebridges8989 from what I remember (NGE lore is REALLY complicated), a precursor alien race seeded a bunch of worlds with life. They spread two different types of life. One type was essentially humans. The other type was Angels. If I recall correctly humanity is imperfect but has the ability to evolve, whereas the Angels are ‘perfect’ but cannot evolve. The precursor aliens specifically tried to ensure they did not accidentally seed a planet with both types of life, but for an unspecified reason this is exactly what happened on earth. The Angel that was seeded on earth is called Adam, and it is the reason all the other Angels are attacking Tokyo - they believe Adam is hidden there and they are trying to reach Adam.
@@canonbehenna612 Being so unusual and unique is what seems to make them seem more alien than what is usually portrayed. Each design is new and unexpected, completely different from the one before, some taking on vaguely animalistic forms, while others being so out of the ordinary that they don't need to have the expected features associated with being scary. Yes some of these monsters do have some of these features like tentacles, big teeth, creepy eyes, or just massive size, but some of the more effective designs are the less complicated, less expressive, more abstract looking ones, because it is harder to predict motives or actions when facing something so unusual, so unexpected, so unreadable. That's where another type of fear comes in. The fear of the unknown, because you don't really know what these things are capable of or what their next moves are going to be.
After watching these I now understand why Shinji was screaming at the top of his lungs when he was at the mercy of Lilith; it reminded him of what Armisael did to him.
Nope. He reminds me of a birb person just trying to vibe, blinking when stuff was supposed to kill them, as though just learning for the first time what a body is
armisael has always been really weird to me because we never really learn what it does. it “infects” the victims, but what does the infection do, exactly? its other attacks seem to be to simply pin down the victim while it infects it, as well as causing hallucinations and disorientations. it morphs eva-0’s body in weird unexplained ways and is named after the angel of the womb. i’d assume it was meant to affect the victims in the long term but only Rei II was fully infected and died soon after. so idk
My interpretation is it was trying to effectively "impregnate" an Eva so it could make more angels, hence that moment where that mass grows out of unit 0's back that has bits of the bodies of most of the previous, slain angels. It probably would have succeeded if Rei II didn't choose to self-destruct unit 0.
@David Vandermeer No. That angel represents mother. It always create anything. Rei also represents a mother. But a mother that sacrifice. The truth here is Rei is from the mother of all mother including angels.
@@dvanderm101 She probably would have essentially revived all of her siblings if she was left alive, meaning that Armisael is easily one of the most dangerous angels. But I’m not sure if her intentions were purely to attack. Based on her conversation with Rei, I get the impression that she just wants to see her brothers and sisters again.
I’d say bardiel and Zeruel are my favorites. Zeruel is so huge and so powerful. It’s shown next to the characters better than any other angel, You can really tell it’s size. And bardiel is very mysterious as to what it was that took over the Eva. Plus Eva 3 is probably my favorite Eva as far as design goes.
I love the thing that Angels actually shows off the thing what they based on in their first appearance, Like Sachiel angel of water, appearing on water while Shamshel appearing in morning ETC.
Well... I don't think so, they are big (people who saw their guardian angel said that he was like 3m tall) but they don't have a physical form, and they can't harm in any way (at lest until the apocalypse) only demons could do that (since they are angels kicked out of heaven)
I think the spider one is one of the most dangerous, sure all we see it do is drop acid down a hole but that wasn't all it did either. It somehow managed to cut off all power to not only Tokyo 3 but also the entirety of NERV headquarters and their facilities, the only reason they were able to do some last minute adjustments to the Eva's was because they were lucky enough that one of the command room computer guys ended up being on the surface and was close enough to the Angle to be able to visually see it and was lucky to have found a running car he could appropriate in order to make it back to headquarters to tell them that they were under attack by an Angel.
@@Karthikkun2805 like a year or so ago when I got into NGE I watched this video to get an idea of what the angels are but it disappeared and I got really sad so I was so happy when I saw it got reuploaded
11:48 It sounds like 13:12 What if Arael is just the pure form of Adam Bird = Freedom/Light(Not physical)[It announces its arriving] and Armisael the pure form of Lilith Birth/Womb = Reality/Not freedom(Physical)[Nobody expects it and harms a lot] Evangelion is pretty much mixed and that is it magic
Gotta wonder why the first angel was so....odd compared to the others. It could have been anything, but it chose the form of a giant humanoid with eyes it uses to investigate the humans, engaging only when engaged and otherwise just wandering around curious about where it is. It isn't until it sees the Eva that is gets angry.
After taking some time to think about the angels, they are all so physically and mentally terrifying it’s difficult to come up with any reason or anything to make it have reason.
Honestly it's a lot easier to watch the show like this because, as disturbing as the angels are in their own right, this way, we don't see the horrific things happening to the pilots inside the Evas
It's funny when you realize the whole truth of the series [SPOILER] is that humanity was one big cosmic trucking accident, and the Angels are there to clean up the mess and retrieve the cargo. There were no nefarious sinister plots against innocent little mankind, we're just a heap of scrap to hem.
Leilel was the creepiest in my opinion. It literally swallows up any thing that it makes contact with into a void of nothingness. I felt bad for Shinji when he was stuck in the void.
The worst part is that, apparently, in all that time Shinji and EVA-01 were trapped there, the Angel tried to communicate with him... He didn't absorb Shinji out of malice. He did so they could talk...
@@eduardomunoz4387 Yeah, the younger Shinji that talks to the current one is Leliel manifesting himself in the void/Dirac Sea. He doesn’t seem malicious, more curious. The same is true with Arael, who tried to do the same thing with Asuka. But because of how powerful he was, and how fragile Asuka’s mental state was at the time, well… it didn’t go as he had expected.
i love how by the attacks pass on the angels become more and more abstract and hard to understand, untill we get to the last angel, a human like one
Only thing is since he had a human mind he became attached to a human, aka Shinji

yea tbh even tho i find it to be the most interesting the pregnancy body horror combined with the infection body horror makes it one of the most grotesque angels. which is crazy because it doesnt even have a fixed form. but it is literally supposed to be an angel that can manifest the desires of the consciousness that it has merged with (reis desire to be with shinji physically manifesting in the form of the white snake rei) so being able to absorb and manipulate biomass does kind've make it a mother angel, or at the very least a creator. tbh i think its ability to empathize with rei was the most interesting thing about it. it is the only angel in the series who has directly communicated with humanity and it is not even threatening, if anything it is confused about its own emotions and trying to share it with a human.
It's almost like they're names are literal or something 🤯
And not just that, when in it's “linear“ looking form (looks like a sperm) it touches the belly “it looks like an egg/ovum“
It's a strand of DNA that then transforms into a sperm
Not really subtle
Then in the end rei's eva unit becomes pregnant and explodes 😂

@@szeltovivarsydroxan9944 birb thingy
Sachiel: "birb?... Birb."
Honestly what I find most fascinating after reading up on all the angels, is how not all of them were truly evil. Hell, some of them merely wanted to understand humanity. Too bad their methods were potentially deadly. It makes you wonder how the other angels interacted with one another. Were there disagreements and infighting amongst them? Did some believe humanity ought to be wiped out entirely, while others merely were curious or as seen in at least 2 cases on screen, felt bad for humanity?
Honestly if there were different factions amongzt the angels like it seems, its lucky the last two, number 17 and number 2 pitied us, otherwise, we would have been without a doubt eliminated
humans are the descendants of angel number 2 so makes sense
and number 17 was a creation of humans

Same happens to Asuka and Misato (she left to somewhere else)
@@mr.chipotle9716 the ride along was depressing but both endings in my opinion were hopeful
Love at how with the first angel, Shinji’s mom was like: let’s not kill my son ok?
But with many other angels she went severely afk 💀 until Zeruel, where she went primal and remember her son was in the eva.
Also, the crying baby sound when Sandalphon evolved? 🫠
She only attacked when she knew Shinji was in real danger.
Tbh most of them didn’t do that much surreal damage to Shinji until Zeruel
Zeruel get eaten by Shinji’s mom
Shinji’s mom best mom
my son he is very sick
To me, Leliel and Arael unsettle me the most. Its just the fact that compared with the other angels, they not only do not have an *obvious* sapience or even sentience, but also because of their abstract design and how they break the laws of reality so unlike the others. Leliel is an entity that exists solely within complex mathematical principles, and Arael simply looms and spontaneously attacks someone's subconscious. Also doesn't help that Leliel is just a colossal monochrome circle instead of something comprehensive and Arael... just look at it
Actually they are some of the smartest angels. Both did not wish to wipe out humanity but to understand it. Unfortunately their methods are quite deadly.
Arael imo is the closest thing relating to what a Seraphim is described.
Armisael also fits into this. The design of all her forms (helical ring, angel tower and Rei spirit) are amazing, and she doesn’t seem to want to fight. She even talks to Rei and about their shared fear and loneliness. I find her to be very compelling.
When Arael attacked asuka, I couldn’t help but laugh when the light shown on her and Hallelujah started playing
because of terminal montage for his videos of something about kirby I can't take hallelujah seriously
I immediately burst into laughter upon hearing "Hallelujah" playing for real in the actual scene like if someone just started micspamming in real life before realizing what was going on. Still couldn't help but feel a sense of Schadenfreude in the moment at the apparent absurdity of this enemy. The fear would come later.
Arael drop the beat
Yeah. While I understand its purpose in the scene (I think?) It just felt so tonally incorrect with the psychological torture Asuka was undergoing in that moment.
@@inazumaprimex100 It's called Soundtrack Dissonance. Evangelion in particular seems to have this down to an art form, as the TV Tropes page puts it.
Fun fact: Dragons are actually supposed to be the old OLD Cherubims meaning that somehow *humans managed to kill off the 2nd highest choir in God's arsenal*
Are these angels actually coming from God or are they just aliens that for some reason we’re designated as angels by humans?
@@blakebridges8989 aliens
@@Alphaj0r thanks
@@blakebridges8989 from what I remember (NGE lore is REALLY complicated), a precursor alien race seeded a bunch of worlds with life. They spread two different types of life. One type was essentially humans. The other type was Angels. If I recall correctly humanity is imperfect but has the ability to evolve, whereas the Angels are ‘perfect’ but cannot evolve. The precursor aliens specifically tried to ensure they did not accidentally seed a planet with both types of life, but for an unspecified reason this is exactly what happened on earth. The Angel that was seeded on earth is called Adam, and it is the reason all the other Angels are attacking Tokyo - they believe Adam is hidden there and they are trying to reach Adam.

If they have designs closer to aliens then they would be more scarier
@@canonbehenna612 🤯🤯🤯🤯
@@canonbehenna612
Being so unusual and unique is what seems to make them seem more alien than what is usually portrayed. Each design is new and unexpected, completely different from the one before, some taking on vaguely animalistic forms, while others being so out of the ordinary that they don't need to have the expected features associated with being scary. Yes some of these monsters do have some of these features like tentacles, big teeth, creepy eyes, or just massive size, but some of the more effective designs are the less complicated, less expressive, more abstract looking ones, because it is harder to predict motives or actions when facing something so unusual, so unexpected, so unreadable. That's where another type of fear comes in. The fear of the unknown, because you don't really know what these things are capable of or what their next moves are going to be.

Also the subtitles: *iT's a gODziLLa!!!*
Where
Recheck and i know where is it now
armisael has always been really weird to me because we never really learn what it does. it “infects” the victims, but what does the infection do, exactly? its other attacks seem to be to simply pin down the victim while it infects it, as well as causing hallucinations and disorientations. it morphs eva-0’s body in weird unexplained ways and is named after the angel of the womb. i’d assume it was meant to affect the victims in the long term but only Rei II was fully infected and died soon after. so idk
Maybe infect them, take control and lead them to the Dogma?
My interpretation is it was trying to effectively "impregnate" an Eva so it could make more angels, hence that moment where that mass grows out of unit 0's back that has bits of the bodies of most of the previous, slain angels. It probably would have succeeded if Rei II didn't choose to self-destruct unit 0.
@David Vandermeer No. That angel represents mother. It always create anything. Rei also represents a mother. But a mother that sacrifice. The truth here is Rei is from the mother of all mother including angels.
@@dvanderm101 She probably would have essentially revived all of her siblings if she was left alive, meaning that Armisael is easily one of the most dangerous angels.
But I’m not sure if her intentions were purely to attack. Based on her conversation with Rei, I get the impression that she just wants to see her brothers and sisters again.
I’d say bardiel and Zeruel are my favorites. Zeruel is so huge and so powerful. It’s shown next to the characters better than any other angel, You can really tell it’s size. And bardiel is very mysterious as to what it was that took over the Eva. Plus Eva 3 is probably my favorite Eva as far as design goes.
Shinji got carried by his mom compilation
I love the thing that Angels actually shows off the thing what they based on in their first appearance, Like Sachiel angel of water, appearing on water while Shamshel appearing in morning ETC.

It's the most kaiju looking angel
damn this is already 10/10, and then they remake it and its 10 times more intense than the original, with more surprises even.
rebuilds are bad tf are you on
I think the spider one is one of the most dangerous, sure all we see it do is drop acid down a hole but that wasn't all it did either. It somehow managed to cut off all power to not only Tokyo 3 but also the entirety of NERV headquarters and their facilities, the only reason they were able to do some last minute adjustments to the Eva's was because they were lucky enough that one of the command room computer guys ended up being on the surface and was close enough to the Angle to be able to visually see it and was lucky to have found a running car he could appropriate in order to make it back to headquarters to tell them that they were under attack by an Angel.
The power outage was sabotage by humans. The angel had nothing to do with that.

Evangelion is pretty much mixed and that is it magic
Never get tired of watching angel's blink beam blasting entire cities with giant cross.
Gotta wonder why the first angel was so....odd compared to the others. It could have been anything, but it chose the form of a giant humanoid with eyes it uses to investigate the humans, engaging only when engaged and otherwise just wandering around curious about where it is. It isn't until it sees the Eva that is gets angry.

It's funny when you realize the whole truth of the series [SPOILER]
is that humanity was one big cosmic trucking accident, and the Angels are there to clean up the mess and retrieve the cargo. There were no nefarious sinister plots against innocent little mankind, we're just a heap of scrap to hem.
So this is where Kirby final bosses got their inspiration from…
0:19 bro look at him he looks so cute
silly sachiel
I agree
Leilel was the creepiest in my opinion. It literally swallows up any thing that it makes contact with into a void of nothingness.
I felt bad for Shinji when he was stuck in the void.
Bro went into discord timeout
Shinji got sent to the Shadow Realm
The worst part is that, apparently, in all that time Shinji and EVA-01 were trapped there, the Angel tried to communicate with him...
He didn't absorb Shinji out of malice. He did so they could talk...
@@eduardomunoz4387 Yeah, the younger Shinji that talks to the current one is Leliel manifesting himself in the void/Dirac Sea. He doesn’t seem malicious, more curious.
The same is true with Arael, who tried to do the same thing with Asuka. But because of how powerful he was, and how fragile Asuka’s mental state was at the time, well… it didn’t go as he had expected.
Its not a void of nothingness, It's the Dirac's sea
Angels are the coolest and freakiest monsters at the same time
