No; I meant the concept behind it, not just its effects.

Anyway, from what I understand...

A.T. Field; also known as the "Absolute Terror Field", is the range in which an Angel (In this case, which includes humans) starts to feel "Terror" from an outsider's physical or mental being within that range.

In the First to Seventeenth Angel's case, this is represented by a barrier in which no physical entities can enter it. The only to break it is to synchronise with its field or to pummel it with something strong enough (In this case, only possible in the game SRW Series). But as for humans, this is represent by the human acting in terror (i.e. Losing one's control to prevent any incoming disturbances).

In a way, the AT Field of humans can be seen as a barrier which blocks out other humans from entering it. And since the only way for the AT Field to be penentrated, another person has to be "Close" or "Accepted" (i.e. Going through the barrier).

Considering that EVA-02's knife was blocked by Kaworu but Shinji managed to grab ahold of him effortlessly, I guess it does show that Kaworu and Shinji are possibly "To Terms" with each other, so to speak. I can't blame the angsty kid though, he did go through a lot of hardship and no one actually gave a **** about him asides from Misato.

I watch it but... every episode is about the same :P And I'm still confused about the "angels"? I didn't watch the first episodes so... What are they? Where did they come from and why?
They're basically creatures that......well.....they want to reach Adam, the first human,(duh)to cause the 3rd Impact. On 2nd Impact, they blew up South Pole, and 3rd Impact is to turn all humans into LCLs. LCL is a liquid that is perrrty hard to describe, but Lilith produces it and you can breathe in it. Shinji is submerged in it when he controls Eva.

hmmm, you seem to be confused, Adam is an angel........and second impact was not caused by the angels in any way it was caused by SEELE which tried to put Adam into Embryonic form.

You have to be kidding me, it makes perfect sense. If anyone wants to know what really happened in the end or in almost any part of Eva I can explain it just ask.

hm...I think you hate neon genesis... no?
From my view, it was good, until the producer decided to take revenge from the Hate-Mail written by misinformed fans. That revenge took solid physical form and became "End of Evangelion".

lol, yeah, EOE can be summed up by saying Anno was ticked off at the few people that wrote him hatemail, lol, sounds intelligent. I think EOE was thought of in the very beginning when Anno wrote the whole plot out and when they finally got to the end with almost no budget they had to portray what happened phschologically in EOE not physically. But hey I could be wrong; and just on a random note there are two ways to interpret Eva. You could either believe that yes this is all happening and everything before EOE is a flashback or like me you can take Rei's words in EOE during instrumentality about how this isn't really what's happening. Hmmm reminds me of Lain, o well, have fun with that.

Why does almost everyone not get Eva or EOE (one, the other or both), it's not THAT complicated. In EOE Shinji is given the power to determine the fate of everyone, and btw the people CAN come back if they so choose to be in a world where not everyone is one thing or where all their AT fields are nonexistant and so everyone can look into the minds of everyone (I know what I said about AT fields before but this is true of them also).

If you look carefully, those Hate-Mail flashes in and out of the scene when EVA-01 breaks out of Lilith's eye.

Yes, I know where the hate mail is in the movie but you said this is the reason Anno made the movie which just can't be.

I was so lost when Shinji Blowd the World in Piece's and that Rei's head was Cracked open and Died of the 7th Angel.

The part I liked was when Asuka took of her amblibical cord to her unit and died in battle,her guts being devoured by the Angel...at the same time Misato and Shinki were frenching inside the elavator while Rei was being born again(?!?!)

Ummmmm Shinji didn't blow the world up.......nobody did. Shinji wanted everyone to become a single being and how did Rei die of the seventh angel? Lilith isn't an angel and I believe Rei could have come back but she chose to "return to nothingness" after her job was done.

Rei did her job at the end that was she became one with Lilith (The big white creature on the cross.) Not everyone died, they just became one being or you could say all their AT fields were completely destroyed and they were mashed together thus allowing them to see inside of anyone's mind. O to heck with it I'm just gonna explain the whole ending so I don't have to explain individual parts. After everyone became one being because of Lillith and Rei; Shinji, Asuka and Misato are questioned by unknown people. Btw Rei /Lillith has the power to do whatever it wants with all the people in the world during instrumentality however Rei gives the power to Shinji giving him the power to do what he wants with everyone. Note that in instrumentality whatever you want to happen happens, it's only appearing to YOU that it is happening so it's not really happening (if that makes sense) and whatever you want to know you know. In the end Shinji gives every person their own choice of what they want to do, they can stay in instrumentality or they can come back to earth (this is what makes the last scene of Asuka and Shinji so touching is that she chose to be with him.) The last scene, more specifically when Shinji tries to strangle Asuka. This shows that even though Asuka knew that Shinji loved her she still rejects him with the last lines of the movie "How disgusting". However these lines are still comforting to Shinji because they show that he is out of instrumentality. So does anybody else want to know anything?

This has almost nothing to do with this, but Lilith IS an Angel. She was the 2nd Angel, and Adam the 1st. And some people say "you understand EVA only when you're on crack, helluva lot of people must be on crack!!!(including me)

Actually I think that Shinji (while in instrumentality) gave the power of choice to everyone. That is the power to choose if they would like to stay in instrumentality or come back to earth. I believe this because there's is no evidence of everyone in instrumentality dying and there's no reason Shinji would want to kill them all. Just a thought.

Actually, it's spelled Spear of Longinus, and as I posted as a quiz, that's the name of the soldier that struck his spear on Jesus to make sure he's dead. And it was Unit 02 that was destroyed, not 03. It was killed by Unit 01.
