Jesus, it's like there's some convoluted conspiracy going on here! What is this, Metal Gear Solid?! This is all getting very strange: first all the things in Rebuild 1.0 (with the red sea, renumbered Angels, Kaworu on the moon), then the new Eva Units, then the introduction of Mari, and now Asuka's surname change? It's becoming increasingly clear to me now that these movies are going to be more than simple remakes....
I'm keeping an open mind about all of this; I'm not particularly bothered. As the cliche goes:
Like a good patron at a resturant, I'm gonna let the chef decide what's good and I'll decide after I've finished the dish.
Still, just what is going on here? Something big is about to happen soon...

I'm sure I'll get used to it. The only thing is that I'll constantly me reminded of Shikabane Hime when I say her name.

If only.

There's an equally tremendous potential to make it so highly convoluted that it lands up getting jossed at the end. I'm disappointed that Gooey and Old Fogey (Bardiel and Zeruel) seem quite the same: how they handle plot-important Angels like those two will be critical to the critical success of 2.0. (Pun intended)

We'll have to wait and see. It isn't too long now...

Hmmm good point Dartz. This does seem like the easiest way to get fans angry about something that will have no bearing on how good the movie is or what kind of character development Asuka under goes. The name change isn't a big deal, especially because its just a last name that you don't really hear said all that much...maybe once or twice in the entire series do they say her entire name. Also I think we are missing the bigger deal in which she is a now a god damn captain. What the hell that going to do to the story, and i will bet the whole farm that this change will mean more then the last name change.

Wait, what? When did she get adopted?
I have no idea what's going on.

Rebuild is not the Evangelion manga (that's where she was adopted continuity-wise), it's a completely different story. Also, it's possible Asuka changed her last name of her own will to distance herself from her mother dying.
Even if Shikinami is her new name, I'm just more interested in where the story is going.

You know, at this point I'm half convinced Anno has does this just to troll the fanbase. I honestly don't care, but hearing people screeching about it warms my heart.
