"2020 Japan" probably rules out any chance of a simultaneous release.

If the ALL-CAPS words on the second poster are anything to go by:

Probably not.

Not really social media, but it's a smartphone app, and I don't think this warrants its own thread, so I'm gonna put this here.

On the official Eva Extra App you can now watch a video recording of all the places AVANT01 was screened. It sadly doesn't support vertical view, and the recording of the L.A. screening boasts a much lower resolution than the other ones. (kinda annoying, since English is the only language provided I understand) It's kinda fun to hear the reaction of the audience, though. Great way to advertise to people to actually see the movie in theaters, imo.

Now the question is, did they just wanna make a huge splash and tell people to go to Japan in 2020 to watch the movie? Or are they planning an international rollout? The 2020 Japan primer on the posters seem to indicate the former. Fingers crossed for the latte, though.

Also there are now short written synopses about Evangelion, End of Eva (including a embedded Youtube Video to the long cut version by Masayuki of Zankoku no Tenshi no Teeze.)
AND there's brand new ~5 minute long videos featuring narration summarizing the first three movies. It has this very "epic deep voiced" narration; like... in a mega-normie-pandering-esque, lol. (weirdly, those are not embedded youtube links)
Also it includes the Rebuild of Evangelion bonus-thing from the Blu-Rays and DVDs, but only for Evangelion 1.11.

(of course all printed Eva Extras and links to the website for Evangelion, Khara and EVAINFO (merchandise shop) are still present)
Still curious as to why one has to choose between NERV and WILLE? I mean, there has to be some kind of impact (lol). Really curious, who would honestly stand with NERV, though.
All in all, it's nice seeing them embrace the internet an the international audiences more this time around.

It looks like the BGM for Shin Evangelion AVANT 1 will be free for a limited time(?)



It might just be playable through the app with no actual traditional downloads. I need the weird European “Flamingo Dancing” sounding Eva tunes, but I’d also kill to hear a clean version of Sagisu’s new “Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desire” cover.

Everything about the marketing is just weird to me.
So Wille people have to wait longer?
Shinji: "Sooner or later I'll be betrayed... And they'll leave me. Still... I want to meet them again, because I believe my feelings at that time were real."
Ryuko: "I'm gonna knock ya on your asses!"

I’m going into these posts with absolutely no understanding of moonrunes and relying almost completely on Google Translate, but I think both factions get the juicy materials at the same time, but the materials themselves are being staggered. It doesn’t look like any two BGMs will overlap in availability; each will expire across both factions simultaneously before the other one is released.

Edit: More accurately, Nerv gets one tune while Wille gets the other during round one, then in round two the availability reverses. The third round looks like we get everything at once?

Every mention of BGM there is to a "BGM collection", so I assume they're all bundled together.

What I meant is people who selected Wille have to wait for the Shin Eva music.
I just think that's weird. So the faction you selected is a way of blocking part of the audience from getting content for some time.
It's awesome we are getting music at all. I own most Eva music, but still.
But Shin I think is what most people want. Wouldn't it be "more hype" if everybody could hear it at the same time?

Again, it's their content and it's not like I'm entitled to it. I just don't understand the marketing as somebody interested in marketing myself.
I just have to wait longer now than other people.

Also, I'd pay to have the actual tracks downloadable.

Neither do I, pal. Neither do I...
The marketing surrounding Q and Shin has been one of contrasts... On one hand you have them acknowledging that Evangelion has a large overseas audience and on the other they don't even bother to translate your app or announcements...

The thing about the language is true. Though I can understand this is due to a lack of staff.
And we do get by pretty good as it is I'd say.
But the withholding of certain things seems weird.

Apparently replay ability of these items will last only 24 hours.

I used 100% of my brain power and came up with the idea of uninstalling the app.
But after doing so and reinstalling it it just keeps the Wille setting.

...Well.
I'll lend somebody else's phone.
See, this is what I mean. It is just a slight annoyance in the end. That's what I don't get.

My guess is the whole reason for this app's behavior is to make people cooperate and socialize, what is ultimately a good thing for you. If you think automatically you will make it through your life on your own only, as a sovereign individual, because the industry will take care for you all the time - well, this is your thinking.

Beautiful music.
Seems some of it is still in demo state.

I guess we'll know in the next week if Khara has anything else planned for Final this summer.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed for some kind of teaser attached to Weathering With You but the Avant screening may cancel that out.

We're now seeing unconfirmed reports on Twitter that there's a trailer for Shin Evangelion attached to Weathering With You, announcing a June 2020 release date:





Keep your eyes peeled.

Someday I hope that we'll be reunited if that is what's destined to be. Perhaps we'll discover that elusive bible. And then we will finally be free!
