Title says it all. Im gonna say Misato, Ritsuko, Rei ,gendo , and fuyutski. Or if Anno is really a dick he will do a complete 360 and let everyone live and just kill Shinji

I wouldn't mind Shinji dying. It's one of better outcomes for him anyway :P

'born gonna 'born.
Among the people who use the Internet, many are obtuse. Because they are locked in their rooms, they hang on to that vision which is spreading across the world. But this does not go beyond mere ‘data’. Data without analysis [thinking], which makes you think that you know everything. This complacency is nothing but a trap. Moreover, the sense of values that counters this notion is paralyzed by it.

And so we arrive at demagogy. - Hideaki Anno, 1996

Depends on where Anno wants to take the story. Only characters that are a given I'd say are Gendo, Fuyutuski & Rei.

Either he'll end on a really upbeat ending where all the heroes live. Or he'll go dark & angry in which case I wouldn't place bets on anyone but Shinji & Asuka (possibly Mari too) walking away at the end.

Anywho, no body knows. But will interesting to see some people throw out ideas.

I want a kill them all ending. And to make it even funnier for me, this time around, if there is indeed Instrumentality, I want Shinji to say no to allowing people out, have him be all "Nope, you bitches are staying in here this time, humanity doesn't deserve to continue"

I'm really tempted to say Asuka, just...I don't know, call it that gut instinct. Maybe even Mari, considering how much she throws herself into dangerous situations.

....Man, I got no clue: it's just so bleak!

Pen Pen will die in Final. It’ll be revealed that he survived the 14 years inside the 12 Angel, which is now inside Unit 13. Both he and Kaworu will pilot Unit 13 back to Willie so they can be with Shinji again. But it will be to no avail.

Misato will be the one that kills him, of course. And because Final Impact will be stopped, this means that neither Pen Pen nor Kaworu will be able to join within Shinji ever again.

Because, naturally, we know that Pen-Pen was the crux to it all along.

"Pen-Pen...I want to be better! I want to like myself! I want to be happy!"

"WARK WARK WARK!"

"You're right! I know you're right!"

"WARK!"

....I agree with Chuckman, though: introduce the new fanservicey character, do nothing substantial with her until Third, and then boom! Down she goes, and you have all the fan favorites to torment left over.

As much as it pains me, I predict all the new characters of 3.0 will be killed..... :sniffle:
I mean, predictability is the central attraction and the narrative hook that we've all come to expect from the Evangelion franchise. How come Anno can't realize this? Twice? - FreakyFilmFan4ever

Eh, those "Mari dies because she is the new girl" theories have kicked around for 7 years now.
Not saying that there is not a high chance of she kicking it though.

I'm thinking that Shinji and Asuka are going to be alive, for sure. Mari might die, though. And I don't know what's going to happen with Rei's character. We could have a throwback to an EoE scenario where the two of them are alive at the end. However, I don't think prospects are that bleak for people dying. Yet.

For me, the only characters that I think are safe no matter what are Shinji and Rei Q...Asuka and Sakura being a close second. Meanwhile, the only character that I would be shocked if they didn't die is Gendo. followed by Fuyutsuki. Otherwise, it's fair game.

Ooh, Sakura! I forgot about her. She was nice to Shinji: that's like a death sentence right there.

The poor soul almost got killed by Shinji's Eva and her brother is dead (I think, right?).

I dunno. I don't think we exactly gain anything from her death.

Shinji is assured to survive, Rei Q too: I doubt that Anno took all the pains to create that new character with the same face but a different path than Rei II only to have her meet the same end than her earlier version.
Asuka too is assured to survive: we already got teased her death back in 2.0, and after all the shit she survived, killing her off now wouldn't make sense.
I also don't think that the youngsters of the new character will die: they represent the future of mankind, its hope, so for me Sakura, Midori and Hideki are safe.

All the rest are fair game. Gendo and Fuyu are already dead.

Sakura has recovered, and there is absolutely no evidence presented either way on Touji's survival (or any of the school children for that matter). To my mind, the fact that Sakura survived is a pointer to Touji also surviving, as they would likely still have been together as a family at the crucial time.
