Re: Who will die in Final.
Yeah, the 9th Angel incident made it pretty clear that Shinji cared about Asuka -- he just couldn't express it in a healthy way given the force of his hatred for his father. And the end of Q brought the two of them back together in a mutual survival situation that starts with Asuka saving him from rotting in his plug until he's coreified or something. The beginning of Shin will involve their relationship changing and growing in some way, I would hope for the better. All so that the story drama can rip out our hearts later, of course.
Mari's importance couldn't be foreshadowed much more obviously. The end of Shin Avant 1 had her channel Kaworu's "I'm going to stare into the distance and think about you fondly, even though you have no idea who I am" moments. Maybe completely unlike Kaworu, Shinji will actually get to learn from Mari in plain words how she already knows him and why he's important to her.

Re: Who will die in Final.
I'd be down for that. And I will definitely be down for the tons of "told you so"s we can dish out to people who refused to believe that Mari was any more than cheap fanservice

Re: Who will die in Final.
Oh, Mari was always integral to the world-building of the new movies. But she’s also the most fun character in the series, and Eva fans who came to see everyone sad again weren’t expecting that, and reacted extremely one way or the other to it. I just don’t think that her death would be a narrative gut-punch enough to mean anything to Shinji.
Asuka already had a near death experience, so making her die in Shin Eva would be like Trinity dying in Matrix Revolutions. Misato hasn’t had that yet in these movies, so I think that her death is more likely.
But, this is assuming that EVERYONE doesn’t die in this movie. If a Full Impact occurs in Shin Eva, I would believe that all bets would be off when it comes to “Who Dies?”

Re: Who will die in Final.
14 years are a long time for many things to happen and they wasted any opportunity to actually be prepared for Shinji. That they were seperated from Shinji after N3I and on the run from authorities before they became WILLE, encountered decoys of Shinji with the BMs, being in constant combat with NERV and SEELE and then fuck it up further when they got him, does nothing to care why they aren't to blame. Makes me only think how worse Kats and Rits would be at all if 3.0 didn't happen the way it does.
The Bridge Bunnies dismiss it too easy that they contributed to how worse it gets. I can see how Mayas actions in Matsushiro are ignored again in FINAL and if it does come up, it means little what she regrets.
Sakura, the same girl who almost died in Shinjis first battle, she shouldn't have met Shinji again in 3.0. Now it's too late for her to fuck off.
If you realise too late how worse you are and others hesitate to punish you, then wanting forgiveness is only a mean to lie what lowlife you are.
I never idealised to ship Asuka with Shinji too much. They both disregarded to care for each other and let the events happen the way they do. I got so used to how worse it gets between them, that seeing them happy with each other in FINAL after what was in 3.0, is only worth to fail for them.
I carry out things right to the end. No. Matter. What.

Give it a rest, buddy. You're the only one here who's subscribed to this edgelord garbage; beating this dead horse of a debate even further will advance exactly noone.

Re: Who will die in Final.
It was rotting for a long time with 3.0 and not dead, the more Eva rotts with FINAL. Watch out then that you don't cut on the hardest edge of your life if you watch it. Then it shows who wasted years in proving who is right. I don't have to be in right to be certain that many will do the same mistake again in a bigger scale.

Re: Who will die in Final.
I just thinking but...
If the "One More Final: I need You" on EoE is not on the timline of NGE but on the Rebuild...
If the One More Final is the end of 3.0+1.0 ?
Maybe someone have already theorize on this.

...what
I'm not sure if I'm reading this right, but having the TV end dislodged from its timeline and tacked on a completely seperate timeline makes absolutely no sense

Re: Who will die in Final.
Is it weird to predict that nobody's going to die in Final? And I mean die as in die die.
These movies have been generally more upbeat than the original and while I don't think everybody's riding off into the sunset at the end, it's hard to think that 3+1 will end with anything other than a happy (maybe bittersweet) note. Happy by Eva standards that is.

Re: Who will die in Final.
Upbeat? Q ?!
That was the most depressing piece of media I have ever seen. The OG series never did anything so harsh.
From least to most likely to live:
Kaworu, if he returns - has he ever lived?
Rei II, if she returns - seems to already be counted as dead preddy much but I'd be nice if she got some resolution before that at least.
Gendo - he seems to be shaping up to be the main antagonist & after the timeskip stuff I don't think reconciliation is possible here
Fuyutsuki - threw in his lot with Gendo
Shinji - It's hard to see a way forward for him in that world. Though more than death what worries me is "and he lved miserably ever after"/ Fate Worse Than Death. Then again he's the MC, he's supposed to reach the end of some arc. That said it's wholly possible that he'll find some sort of hope or sense of purpose. I'm willing to give him an extra 10% of survival probability after seeing that OST arkwork, more so if that leak turns out to be true
Rei Q - Had much stacked against her, but the more she keeps getting treated as separate, the better her odds.
Misato - Mentor Occupational hazard, seems to have become the type of character susceptible to Redemption Sacrifice, but no reason why she couldn't live. It's possible but not super probable
Ritsuko - no particular reason to kill her off unless there's mass death, same for most of the bridge bunnies. Though I give the younger generation like Hideki and Kitakami better odds.
Mari - They haven't really squeezed any tragedy potential out of her that would give her death a punch; Of course, they still might. She's certainly a danger/thrill seeker and wouldn't mind too badly if she got killed in a blaze of glory but there's a good chance that she'll live.
Sakura - has amassed good Karma & besides could be said to represent the future
Asuka - unlikely to die due to the associations/thematic motifs she has going. That doesn't mean that she won't get massively put through the wringer but she'll probably show up alive in the end. But hey, maybe Miyamura will finally get her happy ending wish after 25+ years?

Re: Who will die in Final.
^ Dude, that's like the cheapest prediction of them all. And even in works where everyone did die (End of Evangelion, Ideon: Be Invoked) returning from death/being resurrected was always an option, so those deaths weren't even "permanent" in the normal sense.

The worst I could see is for Shinji to an ending like (*checks the name*) Slaine in Aldnoah.Zero
SPOILER: Show
where he ends scapegoated for the assassination attempt on the Martian princess and the following war and imprisoned for life (all to preserve the political status quo) but it's supposed to be a "hopeful" ending for him because now he's free from his sense of obligation toward said Martian princess.
Fuck. That.
