Reichu, despite popular misconception, is not actually related to GAINAX nor studio khara. Nor The Eva Monkey, for that matter.
The more you know.
Serious Mode: I added the qualifier that I did specifically to exclude fan-made interpretations of what the Evas might look like underneath.

The films aren't consistent. Q introduced the "chin design". The last seconds of this short though, look like something right out of Q.
I.doubt the character designs will change in the last film.
Shinji: "Sooner or later I'll be betrayed... And they'll leave me. Still... I want to meet them again, because I believe my feelings at that time were real."
Ryuko: "I'm gonna knock ya on your asses!"

Huh so the the last chapter of the sadamoto version's cover did have something to do with anything.
If shin is anything like this it looks like it will be something of a cross between EoE's looking inward and NTE's storytelling method into something.........new, though im not sure what.
Well im hyped for shin again at least, made me remember why i like eva so much, also i just stopped thinking about the sequel theory and finally passed it off as a "nah" why would you do this anno? now im thinking about it again!

Soo... does this allude to a possible disappearance of ReiQ? I mean, it could be totally possible, that her body wouldn't make it too long long without the extended bath in an artificial womb. In 2.22 she said, that she wouldn't be able to live in the outside world, just like fish... Well that line would be twisted foreshadowing, then.
CATS CONFIRMED TO HAVE SURVIVED THE IMPACTS. Shinji CAN STILL BE REDEEMED.
What a beautiful, solemn short. I would love it, if Final happened to be just them three walking for half an hour.

Rei probably will die since like you said, her tank isn't here, its back at NERV, but seriously i want her to have a point other than just to fake out the audience and Shinji, she has the potential for being a cool character so even though i know it probably will happen her dying just seems like a waste.

Can we get some citations on all these disparate claims of who did what (or didn't) for this short?

There's Eva-02's mutilated head in 25'. Sadamoto's manga features a weirdly featureless version of Eva-01, based on Yamashita's weirdly featureless concept drawings.
ChaddyManPrime: The four Adams(?) -- can't imagine what else they're supposed to be, with the Spears and all -- in the short remind me more of the rotting kyoshinhei Ohma from Nausicaa than my own drawings, to be honest.

Damn, I get out for one week, and this is what happens!
Personally, that short felt like the opening of an anime, being in equal parts a presentation of the setting and main characters and a fest of symbolic (or outright nonsensical) imagery, with sometimes a pinch of foreshadowing to latter events.
Still, I really doubt that something as big as Rei Q dying would be spoiled in a short like that, so her falling in pieces is probably a symbolism of her previous identity as "Rei Ayanami" is falling apart or something like that.
The core erosion disappearing and sea turning back blue could be a representation of Shinji's (and maybe the rest of WILLE) longing to the past when everything was still in one piece.
For me there's one small detail that picked my interest and put me in Wild Speculation Mode:
Notices the blue highlights on the shoulder area of her plugsuit? Normally they are red. And you know who puts blue highlights on most of their attires? WILLE.
So, does that shot subtly hints that Rei Q will join WILLE in Shin Eva and that her plugsuit will be slightly modified to symbolize that?
Shinji has a lowercase alpha, Kaworu has an uppercase alpha, which also corresponds to the designation of their respective entry plugs (13α and 13Α), to symbolize the dual entry system of EVA-13 and the fact the two pilots are in synchronization. (normally)
Aren't the four ADAMs supposed to wear a mask? (if the one converted in Mark.06 is any indication)

Kensuke is a military otaku who, at one point, is shown creepily taking pictures of girls to sell. He would clearly fit right in as an animator at Studio Gainax. -- Compiling_Autumn
EoTV is a therapist, EoE is a drill instructor. -- Chuckman
Seriously, that is the most fananked theory I've ever heard, more than Mari being Marty McFly travelling through time to keep her parents (Asushin) together. -- Jäeger

The mask is never explained, so no reason to assume it was there from the start as opposed to being placed by humans.
This also seems like a strange objection to raise to an image that can't reasonably be showing anything other than Adams. :p ("Four berserk naked Eva-like things getting skewered by one Spear apiece." Not exactly Final Jeopardy we're talking here.)

Well, the ADAM mask on the Moon had little craters characteristic of small meteors crashing on its surface, implying that it got that mask for some time.
The image of the four Eva things could also be something symbolic, especially since we know that at least one of the four is now destroyed. (Mark.06)

She's also lacking her headset and the hairstyle doesn't seem to match Yui's anymore, something that was done in Q to stress "lol, Rei is your Mom". Probably means nothing, though.
I take it, at least in the case of Shinji and Rei, the video more or less represents their dilemmas, inner demons and what's to come. The four Asukas is simply there highlight her evolution as a character in this franchise.
BTW, is it just me or do the naked/armorless Evas look more like straight up Yokai, or for lack of a better word, demonic, than they ever did in NGE?

Maybe that's just the angle her head is hanging, but indeed, she seems to have her hair slightly shorter.
Agreed, although it's possible that some foreshadowing for Shin Eva was sneaking in that short.

I wouldn't be surprised if after 3.0 Rei Q was trying to make an effort to be as far away from Yui and Rei as she can, i do not think she was happy with what she saw in lilliths chamber.

And to mention that is the only part(maybe exclude Asuka) that looks like Q.
As for Asuka, what is the deal with showing her first scene in episode 8 and also the opening EOE scene when Shinji exposes her?
The 3rd Asuka shown could really be both NTE and NGE as it is just her in the plugsuit, and then the last Asuka is actually quite interesting.
[s]It is Q Asuka, but with her old plug suit, that doesn't have tape over it, like it hasn't been damaged yet, that's a first. If this does turn out to be Canon, that suggest that something happened over the 14 years that tore her suit, unless it could also be from wear and tear too, I mean 14 years is a lot of time.[/s]
Edit- Rewatched, and we don't know that, it is a bust shot of Asuka with just the neck part of her suit that shows.

I wrote this reply in another thread; but to keep things together, I present it here as well:
Those scenes are not literal; Shinji's heart, and the core of his being, has been pierced by what's happened to him and around him - those scenes are a fantasy in his mind, and correspond to his state in the first few scenes of Afterwards. Note, for instance, that he is only wearing a plugsuit at the start and end of the film - in between he has a blanket and later a short-sleeve shirt, and he is even wearing different clothes in his reflection and when shown by the camera panning up. So, not a literal sequence of events at all.

Only something such as this could awake me from my 2 year slumber since Evangelion 3.0
Feels real nostalgic, even peaceful despite the disturbing imagery of Shinji getting his heart penetrated by 3 blades at once.
Anyone notice at 4:06 in the film the reflection of Shinji is him from EOE?
