Yes they are included in the "complete" edition but I think it was a limited print and it hasn't been reprinted in years now.

If that's the case we'll be able to access them easily. Good.

Either way, can we say for certain that the Visual Story thingy won't feature the interviews yet?

We will own nothing, and we will be happy.

I really doubt it would have interviews. The content does not mention interviews.

The 1.0 CRC and 2.0 CRC with interviews had a higher price (that only the Visual Story version) and it mentioned that will have interviews.

Have they released the 3.0 VS then? I've been out of that specific loop. I assume there's indeed nothing really new?

^ The visual story will be released tomorrow (June 30):

This is a re-release for 3.333, right? I know we got a Groundworks book for Q, but I can't remember if we got a Visual Story CRC for the film. It's significantly different than a Production Materials CRC.

As far as i know, we never had a visual story before for Q. Yes, we already had the groundwork (released on March 2014) and the storyboards (released on February 2017).

How do you all go about buying the CRC? I had to get 1.0 on ebay and I still havent been able to get my hands on 2.0. I am wanting to buy 3.0 through an official source rather than ebay.

I bought mine from Otaku Mode, but back when they were still in print. You may have to rely on a second-hand one, since they're not in stock from the official Eva store anymore.

Interesting that the thread didn't get updated with the other info on the design & interview CRCs revealed back in June.

There will be two design (settei) CRC books for 3.0, and were supposed to release this summer (no idea on what's up with that). They are planned to release at the same time, with a separate book for interviews coming after that in the future.

aww, are they really gonna release the split versions only? No giant cardboard box with everything neatly inside like the first two movies?

I was wondering something: do we know if they gave out those interviews shortly after 3.0 was released, like they did for 2.0? Because if they interviewed them now, 9-10 years later, it'd be hard to have them in the same mindset and even remembering the details correctly.

I seem to recall that this info was compiled a while ago, but was not released because it would’ve been impossible to do so without spoiling the last movie.

I could certainly be wrong though.

I'm not sure. I recall not spoiling Shin was indeed the reason they didn't release it soon after 3.0 like for the other films, but I don't remember if they mentioned it being compiled a while ago - and for that matter, that could be in 2020 or whatever too.

This twitter announced when they released the interviews for 2.0 CRC in the Eva app.

Do you think they will release the interviews for 3.0 CRC in the app too?

∆ Probably.

Btw 3.0 CRCs were planned for this summer. Seem to be taking a little longer.

I didn't know 3.0 CRCs were planned for (Japanese?) Summer.

Where this was said?

This week I read our own pages on the 1.0 and 2.0 CRCs. Excited to learn from this thread that 3.0 and 3+1 are on the way. So many questions they might help answer!
