I giggled at Lilith going ^_^ . But seriously, I'm still hoping that once Rebuild is done, Anno and friends will do a Rebuild take of After the End.

-On EMF, as a thread becomes longer, the likelihood that fem-Kaworu will be mentioned increases exponentially.
-the only English language novel actually being developed in parallel to its Japanese version involving a pan-human Soviet in a galactic struggle to survive and to export the communist utopia/revolution to all the down trodden alien class and race- one of the premise being that Khrushchev remains and has abandoned Lysenko stupidity

The Yahoo! Japan website also began streaming the Yoshimoto version of the original television series' opening sequence as part of its "Eva Live-Action Drama Adaptation Project." The Yoshimoto Gekijō troupe reenacts the opening and other sequences from the anime; the other scenes are available to Yoshimoto Mi-Hōdai Club members only. As a part of its April Fool's Day celebration, Yahoo! held a poll on who fans want to play the Evangelion characters in Brosta TV's live-action drama, but the results are not binding.


um....what?

Side of page may contain NSFW links. The choices are generally quite fitting, especially compared to EVER RE-TAKE.

Wow... Abe is practically a RL dead ringer for Gendo.

EDIT: Evidently he's 189cm (6'2") tall, as well. I guess tall Japanese people aren't a myth after all. (This makes me feel much more secure about my random decision to make Akira Katsuragi precisely 189cm long before I ever knew this Abe guy existed.)

So it's not April Fool's after all, huh.

Neat. I wonder if this has to do with ADV's/Weta's film or something else.

Read the Sankaku article. It's just a photoshoot to advertise 2.0.

I see. I was gonna say if it involved acting I have no idea how these people would be qualifications-wise, but I think physically, each person fits perfectly with their respective role. (Ritsuko's actress having a beauty mark is a nice touch.)


Stupid question: That would be a guy as Shinji, right? ^^; They have that slightly effeminate look going on, which I greatly approve of. :shinji_blush:

Sounds cool and I'm not sure about the Japanese casting since I was hoping this was going to do with the ADV's/Weta's film that Universal Stuidos where going to do back in 2005.

those live action ops are so disappointing, the "actors" never care if they look even remotely like the characters
