he does not appear physically, no. Then again, it's mot like the Rebuilds, and especially not 3.0, were ever intended to be truly consumed in a vacuum - they are absolutely a response to the original series and are best understood in that context.

Yeah. Didn't mean that as like a Cinema Sin or anything, just something that occurred to me and I was too lazy to skip through 1 and 2 to check, lol.

I hope none of these teaser shots we've gotten so far will show up in the movie and it will be about something else, then again they put the idea of that possibility in our heads to start with with the teaser at the end of 2.22 so who knows at this point? It really could go either way and all I can do is hope it won't suck ev-


...are those entry plugs on the guns? :eyepop: Is that Eva hanging on AT strings like the fleet of ships in 3

I wonder if Mari is actually going to leave her EVA in the new movie. Every shot with her in 3.0 is inside a cockpit IIRC (Unless you think that's her in the photo with Yui that Shinji gets shown).

She has to as I hope the final movie does something with her. If not man she is one of the weirder characters in the franchise

I don't have a copy of the scene to hand but isn't that more or less the same as the teaser at the end of 3.0 which also had an Eva pirouetting around spewing bullets randomly at nothing?

Also I remember the 2.0 epilogue lied about the content of 3.0 so I don't trust that teaser for a second. :v:

Nah, the 3.0 teaser had the Eva running around on the ground fighting a bunch of other Evas with a sword.

If I remember right Asuka's walking/running to Unit 2 and Mari is on the comm teasing her. I don't think we see her out of her Eva.

That was at the end of 3.0. The teaser at the end of 2.0 was the one that implied Gendo and Fuutsuki returned to NERV HQ and found the old logo in the ruins and the pilots had some kind of meeting. Some of that still could have happened though Rei doesn't quite fit given how 3.0 opened.

It definitely has some sort of belt/harness around its waist with two anchor points and they specifically animate light glinting off SOME sort of strings. Not sure if it's supposed to be AT stuff or just it being suspended under the Wunder or something else..

I'm not so sure. My impression is that this is niche advertising probably aired only during specific anime shows, kinda like the commercials featuring drag queens that air during Drag Race on vh1 and during no other time block.

3.0+1.0 will have absolutely nothing to do with 3.0 and instead will be shinji waking up in the soulless hellworld that contains all of the bizarre licensed eva merch

I spent some time there a few years ago and that stuff was everywhere. Eva ads or art on everything. I was pretty surprised.

Like Eva paintings on gas stations, and Eva soap and sodas. And so many pachinko machines.

And apparently they just painted the Shinkansen like 01

Finally got around to watching a bunch more with my SO, yesterday was Rei I and II and the jet alone episode. Ramiel was a trip and she was like Uhhh What when the drill came out, I guess that's the point in the series where you start to realise just how weird the angels actually are. Main takeaway from the next ep was that the way the robot swings its arms when it walks is extremely cute :3:

Asuka next

Watched the Asuka episode, we both cracked up for like a minute at "baumkuchen". Like "oh yeah every Japanese person knows that"

I watched Robotech on Netflix a while ago and wow if they don't do literally the exact same thing to an enemy spaceship. They even have one of their tiny mechs running around the inside of the spaceship when they blow it up.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hLi7ULuqDkQ&t=72s Right here at about 1:12. The arm, which is made of an aircraft carrier, has a bunch of little robots on it which fire all their guns after it gets punched inside the spaceship.

Just wacky as all hell.

I'm loving how much she's digging the mostly wholesome/straightforward first half of the show and it's such a treat getting to share in her clueless first-watch excitement really tho we know the main event is gonna be seeing what she makes of 25/26 + EoE + 3.0

I assumed that was ironic but yeah 'Anno hates Evangelion' has as much substance as 'he wrote EoE to gently caress with fans', none.
