Confirmation from Evangelion.co.jp to clear up any lingering doubt: https://www.evangelion.co.jp/news/

It says they'll start posting posters and distributing flyers soon.

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: https://twitter.com/tantou_KAI/status/1152007324086571010 https://twitter.com/anzenpin/status/1152008087546413056 Keep your eyes peeled.

Khara released model sheets for Wille's landing crew on one of their twitter accounts. I can't remember if it was the main one or khara2.

I got a better look at it in another shot. It actually says "Lanceur de Charges Spatiales." It's partly visible on the left here:


Explosive Charge Launcher Unit (_____ System Specific).

Anyone fluent in French who can weigh in on what this thing is?


It says Lanceur de Charges Spatial(e). I tried searching for what that might be and the best I can determine is that it's either a piece of heavy artillery or a booster rocket.

Filled with Bakelite, maybe? Unit 01 is encased in a block of something.

Sealing pillars such as the one that Maya and her team activate could possibly be used to contain core-rosion, though these don't seem to play any role in keeping Eva-01's core-rosion effect from spreading; only the proper container is necessary. The tesseract looks like it's made of the same black...

Now i actually wonder, what exactly happened to the giant rainbow portal over Antarctica that we saw in 2.0, is it even still there? Unknown. We haven't seen a full view of the Earth since 2.0. Operation US was pretty close to the planet. Based on the information we currently have, I see four possi...

It gets worse. Though it's not very obvious in the final movie (o, wonders of Groundwork...), there are actually sealing pillars completely lining that giant iris that Nerv HQ is rising out of. Those little black vertical things at the tops of the triangles . Yep. That's what's keeping the coreific...

^It sticks another knife into Kaworu's credibility too. Those pillars are all over the place in 2.0 at Nerv/Seele facilities and are most likely Seele technology. There's little chance he doesn't know about them or what they do. Good thing Nerv got to Shinji so fast and he didn't see this or the mor...

Now for the nitpicking. Why was Paris built like Tokyo-3? In Tokyos case it made sense since it was built atop the geofront. Paris on the other hand isn't, so why the rising buildings? Only Tokyo-3 was expecting attacks so it made sense for the city to be built around that threat, Paris though, tha...

They're specifically called "sealing pillars", and those things on them are "Angel hex sealing runes", so that doesn't to me imply that it works both ways. Great observations on the Wunder and L-Field technical side of things! Thanks! ^_^ I didn't mean that they were using the p...

I think this Avant finally opened the door on some of 3.0's outstanding mysteries and on the nature of the post-Third Impact world. It feels so good to finally have some pieces dropping into place. The L-Barrier seems strongest near the ground and weakens with altitude. Wunder must not be able to en...

So upon closer inspection, not only do each of the Sachicopters have a Spear of Longinus sticking out of their faces (?????????): https://i.imgur.com/4iQagDl.png But they have a humanoid silhouette when viewed from above or below: https://i.imgur.com/HyHJWmI.png And dorsal armor like a normal Eva: h...

^The only way you're going to learn more about Mari is by her getting more screen time. You can't have it both ways. Evangelion will be just fine. :rolleyes: So...did Anno recycle his concept for an EoE sequel? The one where humans live in a city protected by an AT Field in a world overrun by Angels...

What in the absolute hell was any of that?!

Those Eva/Angel drones were something else. Were those the ones being produced in NERV HQ? Also, holy cow, Jet Alone. I predict there's going to be a lot of fan art of Ritsuko and Maya in those plugsuits.

^I can see it on the site but not on here. Edit: OK, seems it's transmitted from France and shown on a screen in some venue. No direct feed? :( What I gather here is that they're talking about the Yoko Takahashi x Evangelion LIVE stage event which is one of the places it's going to be shown in Japan...

FWIW Toei did release some of the DBS Broly material in similar fashion. They debuted a trailer at one of the big cons (I think it was SDCC or NYCC) and released it online very shortly after. Of course everyone had already seen it because someone in China had leaked it earlier. :lol: With it airing ...

I want an explanation for Second/Third Impact that isn't abstract art.

Also some sweet new music from Sagisu but that's a given.

You know, you're right. I edited my previous post to remove it.
