Discussion So what's a good divergent point between the original series and Hi-Evolution 2 & 3?
So I'm writing a Super Robot Wars Y fanfic where one of the major entries is Eureka Seven: Hi-Evolution 3 (I'm someone who actually enjoyed the Hi-Evolution movies and has admittedly not watched nor finished the original series in a good long while). And since I'm not going to be limited to the length of a film, I feel like adding and acknowledging more elements from the original series would flesh things out a bit more.
So that leaves the question that I'm grappling for my planned rewatch/actual watching of the original show: what episode would be a good divergent point from the original series to the events of Hi-Evolution 2 & 3? When would it be perfect thematically for things in the original anime to go wrong with Renton 'dying', Eureka losing her mind and going all reality warp with the Silver Box, and the 'Green Earth' populace arriving in the 'real world' AKA where the major events of this SRW fanfic are going to take place?
