I have a question about 3.0+1.0 about Kaworu
First of all this film has been an amazing experience, and the sense of closure, the feeling of Anno who has battled depression and got to the other side really came across well in this film. I felt his feeling across the TV, and I am ready to say goodbye to Evangelion.
But I do have a burning question! Commander Nagisa? How come he was sitting at one point on the desk with Kaji calling him "Commander Nagisa" and that he has some similarity with Gendo? Can someone please explain it to me? I know that there is a circle of Kaworu, who are in a circle of seeking happiness for Shinji, but how does that factor to him leadnig either Nerv or Willie?
This is my only source of confusion. Otherwise this film did an excellent job!

My interpretation was that in a different cycle, Kaworu was Commander of Nerv, and he wrote Shinji into the Book of Life thus making him and Shinji forever intertwined by fate.
oooo this makes a lot of sense!
It wasn't in a different cycle, it was the current one
But wasn't Gendo the Commander of Nerv in the Rebuilds cycle? Unless Kaworu held the power behind the scenes all this while?

Thank you so much!! This makes complete sense now!
sorry for randomly popping out but i have a question tho, how was gendo able to command kaworu and shinji to pilot unit 13 if this was the case? or did i miss/confuse smth?
Also what is this Book of Life? I do not remember it from the original series, and Google yielded nothing.
