Ultimately it remains mostly the same, liquid (hu)man, it is so far the strongest proof that Eli is indeed none other then Liquid.

I used to be very much opposed to the idea that Eli is Liquid, but seeing more and more proof of it, I do have to accept it...however, I still don't agree with it and think Kojima's bonkers for introducing Liquid here when it was previously states that the man never met Big Boss, yay for retcons I'm just saying Kanji doesn't always mean the same thing as if it is interpreted as Chinese, but in many cases, it works closely enough -- and hence I said it is by far the strongest proof.

On the pt where Liquid never met Big Boss, are you referring to the scene where Liquid said "[he] was the one that father chose" before entering REX? Or you are talking about else where?
