It looks like Eva 4.0 will be Daicon 4 after all

Hey, if a studio’s gotta do a remake of some sort, I'd rather a stealth remake of Daicon dressed as an Evangelion remake than a Disney remake of a Disney film.

I instantly thought of this when I watched the Avant.
Something tells me though the issue won't be fully fixed by the end of the film.

I can't get behind the idea of Kaworu secretly being evil btw. I don't know what that would add to the story, since we experience Kaworu through Shinji's eyes.

Remember when Anno said 2014 during the TIFF that Rebuild wouldn't be about otaku and that it would be about something he thought was more important in current times?
Any thoughts on that based on this Avant?
I think basic Eva themes like isolation and need for other people will be there. Wille being some of these other people.
Seeing the initial shots beautifully depicting the Eiffel Tower and the group effort of Wille, I think a celebration of Humanity, collaboration and people coming together will also be a focus.
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!"
-Asuka: THINK IN GERMAN!!! -Shinji: Öh... Baumkuchen...
Hayashida: "As game developers, our work is special. All of us here can put smiles on very many people's faces with our work."

Uh, I need to look up this interview, sounds interesting!

After Q I thought it might be actively working against blindly following authoritarianism.
After AVANT, I'm pretty sure it's about combating climate change... I mean, it shows us the remediation of a world ravaged by human action.

^ Ah, this fits very well. But one interesting message from AVANT is: to successfully combat those changes we need godlike powers and technologies. However, in harsh reality we have none of those and we do next to nothing to prepare for climapocalyptic events when they come. We only do much chatter. Isn't that suspicious? But, back to Q, how can we tell who is lying and why is he lying without access to reliable knowledge?

I don't want to sound like Stillborn, but it seems we are all Shinjis at the grace of Gendos in the age of the fake news. :emogendo:

I wonder if he meant Rebuild specifically or all his work (Shin Godzilla too).

@kuribo-04 thank you very much!

@ErgoProxy
I mean, yeah, but in Eva they need fantastic sci-fi technology, because havoc was brought upon the earth by fantastic sci-fi-technology in the first place.
So, the analogy still works, imo.

I figured Eva-08's legs would have gotten fucked up by those 4444C drill things, but for whatever reason I didn't notice the extent of the damage until now.

Image

Now I feel even greater trepidation, in my heart of hearts, that they're just going to strap J.A. limbs onto Eva-08. Since then we'll end up back at square one, you see? Eva-05 reborn! There's even more than one set of JA-02 legs at the facility, so it could be a four-legged abomination and everything!

Considering it's 3DCG it could be an easter egg made by Hibiki Yoshizaki (the ME!ME!ME! director) as he's worked on that in 3.0 too.

A "nsfw" warning on those URLs would have been nice... :um: Others might appreciate having one edited in.

(Also, looking at that thread, I'm a "cough syrup addict" now? One wonders how I manage to be addicted to a substance that would have killed me a long time ago if I were... :p )

Anyone fluent in French who can weigh in on what this thing is?

It says Lanceur de Charges Spatial(e). I tried searching for what that might be and the best I can determine is that it's either a piece of heavy artillery or a booster rocket.
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 guess what we really want to know is -- does this mean a space-faring JA02 fleet or not? :chinscratch:

I got a better look at it in another shot. It actually says "Lanceur de Charges Spatiales." It's partly visible on the left here:

Well, the term "charge" can be used like in English to design a carrying capacity, so my guess is that it's a rocket to transport a charge, maybe up into space. Maybe that was the prototype of Mark.09's rocket in Q?
