I'm burning to know what actually happened behind the scenes with Funi's Q release... Something must have happened.


Well, pretty sure the Liberties that Funimation took with the first attempt at dubbing the movie was what started it. The reaction that dub got at the New York comic con may have played a part in too, but that’s purely speculation on my part. Why it took 2 years to fix that situation, I have no idea. My guess is it was Funimation looking for a proper release window.
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

The only Eva film Funimation released without incident was 2.22. They’ve had to “fix” every other Eva release in some fashion. 1.01 has some embarrassing misspellings in its reading insert, the first press release of 1.11 had certain special features that Kara did not authorize them to have, and 3.33’s release was delayed due to differences the two parties had with the subtitles.

Having seen how awful “fans” of all types have been lately I don’t think any dub of 3.0 could overcome the many misguided & hate-filled insults thrown at the film for being “gay”. It’s still one of the biggest insults thrown at the film still.

Either way, Khara seems pretty specific in what foreign companies can & can’t do with their work. That’s another reason I would rule Netflix out for Final. Netflix pays the distributor one lump fee for the rights and then can do whatever they want with the film/TV series/etc and the creators have no say over what they do. If Netflix wanted to subtitle “fuck” into every one of Shinji’s line Khara would have no control over it.

So this is probably a really really dumb question but 3.0+1.0 will start where 3.0 left off right? Or do we not know this for sure yet? I tried to google this but didn't find an explicit answer.

Idk why but I was always under the impression that the 4th rebuild movie would be a completely different ending separate from 3.0 (if it is then maybe that's why it's not being called 4.0) and not a continuation but I've been out of the loop as far as Evangelion goes for a while now so i'm just going off what I think I remember from high school (I lurked this forum a lot back then and have done tons of lurking the past couple days after watching EoE again for the first time in years).

The Teaser poster as much that 3.0 was about the last act of the Jo-Ha-Kyu but not the last film and the 4th film would symbolically continue Eva after it actually ended. That the scrapped last scene for 3.0 was supposed to be longer and the CRC isn’t released gives the idea that the first scene continues 3.0s last scene. Earlier plans were about releasing with or close to 3.0 indicating this more.

I see... I'm going to rewatch the rebuild series again soon but I remember not really liking where the story ends in 3.0 so hopefully this final film gives me more/better closure.

Any idea why they're calling it 3.0+1.0 instead of just 4.0 though?

That Rebuild was planed as a Tetralogy, a as 4 part film series all along is still true. The earler title FINAL still had the same nature that a forth and last film would complete what started with the 3rd film that was also about the last act of the Jo-Ha-Kyu. That why 3+1 makes 4.

The Japanese also have somewhat of an aversion to the number 4. I don’t recall the exact reasoning, but it’s like bad luck or something, so 3.0+1.0 gets around that.

I want the opening shot to be of a red landscape, like the end of 3.0, but then we pan and it’s Shinji in his school uniform and Asuka in her plug suit with bandages over her arm and eye.
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

Probably intentionally there are lots of "apocalyptic four" in the Rebuild. 4 Adams, 4 lances, 4 impacts, Eva 13 has 4 arms.

The Kanji for 四 can be read as Shi, which is also a reading for the Kanji 死, which can be read as Death or Disease.
Also both of those Kanji have elements in common.

We don't know for sure yet but if what we've seen of Unit 08 so far is any indication, it picks up pretty shortly after 3.0. Unit 08 is still under repairs and some of its armor looks to be unpainted.
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!

Wow, being caught up in a pile of bs for the last two months and finding out there's actually a year when Final is coming out is like some of the best news I've heard in a while.

Who the fuck am I kidding, it is the best news I've heard in a while.

I turn up at random for the first time in - months? years? and this is what I discover. Interesting. Although it means that 3.0 + 1.0 is coming a full 13 years after 1.0 released. That's one heck of a schedule slip. Someone who was born in 1995 would be 24/25 by the time this thing came out in 2020. So that's a full quarter century of Evangelion right there. Interesting. Wonder how it's gonna end?

Best thing about a 2020 release is it gives me time to save up for a real big trip to Japan!
