Norea

@gundam

Norea was a daughter of Eve in Gnostic myths. When Noah didn’t let her board the ark, she burned it down and he had to re-build it. GWitch’s Norea attacking the school is a retelling of this.

The mythic Norea is later attacked and rescued by a figure named Eleleth. Eleleth -> Elan 5

Wikipedia has a good summary: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norea

Sophie is a ref to Sophia, a huge figure in Gnosticism, but I’m not sure how to interpret her Gundam counterpart.

    @gundam I noticed this and was surprised that no one else seems to be talking about it. There’s a lot of references to other things in this show. I don’t know if there are other Gnostic inspired characters besides these three. I’m going to look into it more.
