I don't really like how the new short soft-retcons the movie, a little bit, much like -120min and -46h did. To be quite fair, EoE did this with EoTV, but it was actually much better that time around. Oh well. I guess we just have to appreciate Shin in and out of itself (bit of a mouthful, that...)....

Short project for Eva’s 30th anniversary — 2024 10/21 A conversation between Asuka Soryu and Asuka Shikinami. The discussion becomes meta. I meant these images. https://i.imgur.com/BGaLFeo.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/h6100vg.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/ueMXi4F.jpeg

Is there any translation for what the notes say?

Khara has given in. The short will officially drop on their Youtube channel March 8th. (which is 10am today Eastern Time)

Do we know that for sure? A lot of the imagery we see in the trailer is resemblant of the ruins we see scattered throughout 3.0 + 1.0. If it's set before 3.0, that would explain why Unit-01 is present in the trailer looking all menacing, because it's before they had to launch it into space. Ruins a...

I'm confused about the interpretation of the 30th anniversary short, lol, is the short telling us that Asuka chose not to be with Shinji because she rejected instrumentality and wants to be in a world where she is a hero/protects the people around her, or does she reject instrumentality because she...

I'm assuming this was cancelled then?

It doesn't really confirm anything, but we got a report that Khara is hiring new staff.

There are no official subtitles anywhere.

I just really want to see, should the series use existing characters, for Rei to actually be shown as worth saving and not leaving to die lest you fall into escapism. And there goes those hopes. The guy can’t ever seem to reign in his hatred of her due to only seeing her as a symbol for his type of...

I don't think there are any free VPNs,but all of the major ones offer free trails. There's Nord, Surfshark, Norton, ExpressVPN, etc.

The difference is Gundam started to change protagonists pretty early. The second Gundam anime (which happened 5 years after the first) has a different protagonist. That allowed the franchise to separate itself from the protagonist quite quickly (even if Amuro and Chat are still relevant). In Evange...

I know what you mean, but in this case, it's just a funny short. These aren't the canon events of what happened 29 years after EoE.

That is still the thing that I'm confused about. In this short Soryu talks about EOE events in past tense. And we also have the title for episode 27. Meaning it happens after the beach scene. So maybe, it is another instrumentality after EOE had ended. Or maybe it's just supposed to be a funny shor...

I know people are saying this could be like a Gundam AU with completely different characters, but I don't want that. I think Gundam can get away with that since it's established as a thing, but not any other anime. I don't want want a Nier anime with the Eva name slapped on. I want Evangelion. The i...

Tsurumaki is the new generation. He's been wanting to lead his own Eva project forever.

Very interesting that this doesn't seem to have anything to do with any previous version of Eva. Not Rebuild, not Anima, not Raising Project... It's its own new unique thing.

Also, super glad that Tsurumaki has finally been given the chance to lead his own Eva project free from Anno.

I can't buy from my location, does VPN work?

It should.

Also this ain't canon to anything, I don't get how people can see this and think it fits anywhere at all, this doesn't override anything, it's a celebration of Asuka. I mean, if you have to put it somewhere on timeline, it would have to go after 3.0+1.0 since they directly reference the events of t...

Wow, this place suddenly got very busy. I absolutely loved the short. I may be biased as an Asuka fan (and an AsuShin fan) but I think that was the best Evangelion anime they've ever made since End of Evangelion . I'd love it if at the end of the festival they announced that more Eva anime w...
