Re: Khara's new guidelines for Eva fanwork

There's absolutely no reason to do this instead of the usual anime industry grey zone tolerance policy they have followed so far if they don't mean to act on it. I think Khara wants to legitimize fan works officially within acceptable limits. Hence they need to clarify the limits - and at least some...

Trailer is indeed live

Spooky Rei eye at 0:15 is the most promising part.

Re: Release Date: January 23, 2021 (Unconfirmed)

There are many Japanese social media reactions by people who saw the trailer at Kimetsu no Yaiba screening so this is definitely real. Apparently the new trailer is 30 secs long, all new footage, and uses Bande-annonce from Q soundtrack as BGM. Source (now deleted) tweet: 最新特報である特報3、内容としては新公開カットだらけの...

Re: Shin Eva - Official Social Media

I can't imagine Q was supposed to have some long fourth act. Not only would this violate its narrative structure in general as Gendo'sPapa says, it would also seem to violate Jo-Ha-Kyu structure to which Rebuild adhered to, with the final part being both swift and exciting and quietly fading away. S...

Re: Shin Eva - Official Social Media

Hmm. I must take back some of my skepticism regarding long running time. 5ch nanJ-min are hardly experts when it comes to film/anime production, but the tone here in the reaction thread is so uniformly "wait is this going to be 2½ hours or what" in style I guess chances of it going over 2 ...

Re: Hideaki Anno statement on Eva's 25th Anniversary [Translation]

Thanks for translation! I have a question about this: 設定年代を既に5年も通り過ぎているとは、 He don't mean 2015? 5 years passed from 2015 to today, considering 2015 as the date of the Evangelion's setting (NGE). I interpreted 設定時代 as referring to period 時代 Anno spent creating settei 設定 for Eva, but it indeed makes m...

Re: Shin Eva - Official Social Media

So... are they gonna let Anno have full control of the lengh of the movie, or is Khara Khara going to Cut anything? Khara is Anno's own company and he has absolute authority on all Eva-related decisions like this. He's also the sole owner of the Original Creator credit too now. So if he wants to ma...

Re: Hideaki Anno statement on Eva's 25th Anniversary [Translation]

Actually, 17 years is the time passed between the first announce of the Rebuild projects (2004, IIRC) ti the announced released date of Shin Eva (2020). Ahh. This could also be where the 17 years figure comes from. He's very clearly talking about Eva on the whole in that sentence and not about Rebu...

Re: Hideaki Anno statement on Eva's 25th Anniversary [Translation]

Sorry, I wasn't clear. Yes, it is about his direct involvement. I'm sure they'll keep the cash cow around just like they did after End of Evangelion. I just entertain serious doubts about whether any major Eva anime project will get off the ground without involvement of Anno. I think Khara will atte...

Re: Hideaki Anno statement on Eva's 25th Anniversary [Translation]

I do wonder about that 17 years number. If it was a typo you'd think they would've caught it while proofreading. Then again, it's clear Anno has not spent 27 years working on Eva non-stop. "5 years working on the settei" is also a bit ambiguous. Obviously Anno was working on Eva before the...

I finally read Anno's statement and he's more blunt about this really being the end for Eva than I expected.

Here's the text: With passing of 25 years since the airing started, and with 5 years spent in creation process even prior to that, I feel the passage of time is fast indeed.

Re: Shin Eva - Official Social Media

Well, 41m16s x 4 = around 2h44m That's LONG. Either the movie is very long or D part is disproportionally long. Sorry for being a downer but nothing about the D part being 41 minutes long gives any indication Final will be longer than the standard 2h max cap. The final climax segment is always the ...

Re: Original Episode outlines from Evangelion Proposal

These have been discussed previously - but keeping in mind the most recent thread is literally 10 years old I think it's fine to continue the discussion in this thread. The table is clean! Rest of the material in Proposal makes it clear that while Eva was in many ways written as it went along there...

There's 8-10 years worth forum history behind here, Berserker. Of course you wouldn't be aware of that background and that's ok.

I did make this thread as clickbaity haw haw that's gross but kinda funny Chit-Chat topic, however. Too bad people with baggage had to ruin it.

Frankly, the substantial, serious material in that conversation sounds like it could be a goldmine of information not otherwise available in the West and I'm really curious to know what else is in there.

Re: Yuko Miyamura wants to rape Rei (Animage 1996 Anno x Miyamura discussion)

Not everything out there is even that relevant, even if it is well known. This and other interviews are already mentioned and/or referenced in the wiki and/or gwern's. This is mildly related to Eva but hardly essential. Many interviews like these are mostly Anno et al having fun, often drunk, and n...
