I'm 95% certain a lot of the CGI (especially that eva combat jesus) comes from older and incomplete animation made a long time ago, cause i refuse to believe that that CGI is in the same movie as that water and piano shot that Joseki linked up earlier. I also get the feeling that a lot of the traile...

So having recently watched the trailer again on my monitor this time ( watched it on a tablet the first time) and noticed something i didn't the first time. https://i.imgur.com/ui8fCjc.png Is there someone in that room? There's a suspicious black blob that i initially thought it might be the shadow ...

I'd love to go point by point but it wasn't my intention to further derail the thread so just one last thing. My point was that for all the seemingly dark and coldness 3.0 has, i honestly think it's just skin-deep. Mostly due to the narrow perspective it gives while also withholding as much informat...

Doing that same trick in the third film with Episode 20-24 of the show and adding Kaworu and Mari into the "I like Shinji" mix would be the simplest way to please the most people. Umm isn't that what literally happened with Kaworu? It's by far the most Shinji obsessed version of him, and ...

What if the song is about Gendo? One last kiss implies there being a first one ( unless this is one of those weird translations by non-english speakers) and not only is he the main antagonist, but also the main driving force behind pretty much everything,whose entire reason for doing what he's done ...

^ I doubt any company would be willing to shell out money for licensing and theater rentals for content that's at least 8 years old, even if it's some sort of bundled deal with the last movie. Eva is still a niche property outside Japan. I'd say it's more comparable to One Piece in that it's hugely ...

I wonder where Toho and Toei figure into this? I'm sure they made a deal with Khara to bring final to as many screen as possible and how would that affect theatrical releases in territories outside Japan. Personally whoever gets the eventual right for it in the US i hope they keep the same dub for c...

Been a while since i saw 3.0 but doesn't Fuyu tell Shinji that his father is willing to give up his soul for his goals?? That's a pretty concrete statement in regards to how Gendo functions. About the merch thing, there's a difference between something created and afterwards marketing the bejebus ou...

Don't like Reis white plugsuit either. There's franken-evas and a giant flying spaceship and giant teeth on the crust of the earth. I don't think the rebuild is lacking in difference. All these new plugsuits do is trigger the cynical part of me that says they're were made solely for the eventual fig...

Tinfoil hat theory time, i wonder if with this new release date khara has sort of given up on a more global release? Covid wise europe is going the wrong direction and the US remains the shitshow we've been since it all started. With the colder months still ahead and vaccines taking time to distribu...

This didn't hype me as much as i had hoped it would. I'm sure it will be a spectacle but i'm not that emotionally invested in these character if at all, (looking at you Mari) so seeing these teasers focusing on them is underwhelming for me. Also for the love of all that is holy why white plugsuits??...

I could see how this theory might work for NGE, but NTE is far too different for it to hold any water. NTE is Shinjis story and there really isn't a "best" girl or any of that stuff in the movies. The sexual tensions and romantic undertones aren't nearly as prominent here and there isn't a...

Yeah i don't see Kaworu as evil but rather as a classic road to hell is paved with good intentions type thing. He may have wanted Shinjis happiness (w/e that was in his mind) and did everything to get there. If that included misleading and omitting information from Shinji then so be it. There's too ...

They'd had to have had some sort interaction, a choker was made for him, and he was the pilot of the Mark6. There is the missing 11th angel so maybe in this instance, Kaworu was Shinjis replacement pilot instead of Asuka like in NGE.

I dunno if it's so much as dense as there's just so little information. Yui was maaaybe responsible for unit 1 rejecting the dummy plug and she, as far as can be inferred, willingly became unit 1s control system. Beyond that, Yui is very much an enigma for now. So just how much in cahoots she is wit...

While taking a shower last night and thinking of eva, an idea came to me. It was interesting how Fuyutsuki told Shinji that Rei had been made from Yuis' data . What exactly did that mean? Now this will be some rabbit hole speculation so here goes. 1) Rei was made from Yuis' data. 2) Gendos plan invo...

@Freaky It all goes back to what started this thread to begin with, if the other pilots also wear chokers and what that implies. My point was why the singling out of Shinji specifically? Chokers have one purpose only, to stop awakenings and prevent impacts, if Asuka and Mari wear one then Misato is ...

The reason Shinji is barred piloting Unit 01 isn't because of Impact issues; Shinji can't pilot Unit 01 because it's being used as the Wunder AAA's engine. Shinji can't pilot a vehicle that's entirely being used as an engine for a completely different vehicle. I don't know why Unit 01 specifically ...

@Freaky Umm the whole reason Shinji was told not to pilot and the choker placed on him as a contigency in case he did, was because of the risk of an awakening and an impact. That kinda goes out the window and does make Misato a hypocrite if she was constantly sorting 2 pilots that could cause the sa...

Well the choker was made for Kaworu, not Shinji. If the whole point of a choker is to prevent impacts, that's another +1 in Misatos hypocrisy pile and while i'm not against such revelation, it does seem odd.
