[TWEET DELETED BY KHARA]

The second page is somewhat visible and it reads "characters & [word I don't know]", people on Twitter saw Toji and Kensuke in the bottom left corner.

EDIT: see the following post

For anyone interested, here's an edit of the first photo that is a bit clearer on the names and most of the heights...
Though the five names on the right side are almost illegible (as is the annotation below Kensuke's height).

Based on those numbers, Toji's a big boy too. He's taller than Gendo!
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!

I never believed that Tōji had died. I hope this really is confirmation that I was right.

Maybe Anno took some inspiration from my story (and if you believe that, you'll believe anything...)!

Anyone think they’re going to a major info release on April 1st?

Isn’t that the start of the new financial year or something vitally important in Japan? Kindve like how April 1, 2015 they released the news Anno was doing Godzilla.

I believe Mari is two people to the right of Rei, unless that was Misato. The shading on the eyes look like glasses.

But I'm so glad Toji, Hikari, and Kensuke are alive!

I guess that retweeting the image in a more obscured form is proof we weren't meant to be able to read it...

A rough drawing of the characters heights (even if it wasn’t intended to be revealed yet), that indicates Tojis, Hikaris and Kensukes appearance in FINAL and they’re already grown up.

The rough silhouettes of the Pilots indicate, that Asuka still wears her current Plugsuit since 3.0, though Shinjis and Reis Plugsuits are less the ones they had while being at NERV and they look more like their earlier ones with Shinjis being blue and white and Reis is only white.

I wouldn’t mind if Mari does wear a completely pink Plugsuit as in the teaser now, instead of her actually one with the darker color for the legs as with Asukas Plugsuit.

This all makes it more apparent, that FINAL was intended to be released together with 3.0.
I carry out things right to the end. No. Matter. What.

Or the transparentcy wasn't necessarily noticed at first considering they 86'd the tweet a few hours later.

Their apology tweets + deleting the original picture means it was a screw-up on their part, yes. (ミス = Mistake.)

I'm super happy for this news, though, and hope it's not some flashback or metaphysical Instrumentality sequence.

Shin Evangelion Gunbuster is real :lol:

WHOOPS!!!! I figured it was a mistake like that From Khara. That doesn’t appear like anything they would want to leak prior to the release date. It seems a whole lot like Eva Q levels of spoilers.

Happy about the news nonetheless, but WHERE’S MY Kaji????

I think we'll hear a lot of Gunbuster soundtrack cues in the Final score. Anno has been smartly re-contextualizing musical bits from his previous anime series in Rebuild. Gunbuster is the major one left I don't recall (though I could be wrong) getting a callback/re-contextualized in the series so far.
1.0 was mostly reused music from Neon Genesis. 2.0 incorporated a lot of tracks from His & Her Circumstances. And 3.0 used a solid amount of cues from Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water.

Would not be surprised if some famous & obscure cues from Gunbuster get re-used for similar scenes in Final.

It feels AWFULLY SUSPICIOUS that the side of the image that was clearest is where the characters from previous movies were clustered... Or maybe it's just bias from the fact that we do know them and are thus able to make out their shapes and/or names through the top sheet, I dunno. The amount of effort put into blurring the tiniest thing on previous tweets leaves me very skeptical. Not to mention a height chart was used to drum up hype for the last movie, too. Something very calculated about this. Making a post "exclusive" to those who caught it immediately drums up interest in the account, get people to follow it even more closely so that they don't miss stuff like this in the future.

The head is pretty squared-off, and the overall shape -- taking into account the slant of the glasses -- doesn't make much sense unless the bottom of the jaw is obscured by clothing, like a mock turtleneck or something. But it's all a big blurry mess, and pareidolia is going to be hard at work, so I'm not putting much stock in any of this.

The best indicator is the name. Since the characters are uniform width, it's usually easy to tell how many there are per name even if they're too blurry to read. This particular individual has a name with three characters -- either a simple kanji and two katakana, or three katakana. Mari's name would at minimum be two characters (マリ). If you include JUST her Japanese surname, the character count jumps up to five (真希波マリ)!

-------------

On that note, I should mention that Rei has only one character in front of her name, so, as expected, she is not being referred to as "Ayanami". I suspect the character is 別, "different"/"another", since "Betsu Rei" is how she was referenced in the Q script.

------------

Pretty sure we have a whole bunch of new characters here. I went through the list of possibilities, attempting ANY kind of match on the remaining blurs, and came up empty. There's a bunch of familiar characters clustered on the left side, so maybe the remaining familiar ones are clustered on the right side. Gonna be one packed height chart. Maybe there are so many characters now that they need multiple height charts, organized according to who's seen around whom in the film. So, for example, any characters who interact on the Wunder could be on one page; those who interact at the hypothesized Wille base could be another...

The Gunbuster comparison is really spot on.

The 3.0 cast is Noriko and we all are Kimiko.
