I should mention I wrote most of the Final Scene article and am currently remaking the Tiers of Canon one. I do greatly appreciate your input here, it's very nice to see people go out of their way to examine supplemental sources. Wish more people would do that. FelipeFritschF, thanks for your hard ...

Flashback / Flashforward Yui's final monologue is interesting. It's long been used to dismiss the "Eva-01 becomes a Seed" idea, but that never sat right with me. Saying that Yui will just sit around passively doing nothing until the end of time leaves too many other things unaccounted for...

There is another interesting line, this: ミ サ ト (冷 た く, 無表情 に): 「そ う, こ の た め に エ ヴ ァ シ リ ー ズ が 体 13, 必要 だ っ た の ね」 13 Eva is mentioned in episode 22, and the line that I have paste was present in the movie trailer, but was later replaced with the Second Impact line. But I don't remember what the tr...

Marfil : A quick note on the "fate of Yui" thing. The dialogue between Yui and Fuyutsuki at the end is almost verbatim the same in the leaked script as it is in the final movie! I don't think the purpose of the "Ark" was actually changed -- Anno was just much more elusive about ...

Use this archived version . The scripts are under the "裏?”. Thank you so much for finding the correct link. I did took a good look at the website before posting, but it did not occur to me to click on “裏?”. I can confirm that the leaked script with the alternative endings was indeed uploaded t...

At the moment, I don't have the ability to answer your questions to anywhere near the level of detail you would like. Doing a full dissertation on the matter would probably require that the drafts be fully translated; the storyboard-vs-final film changes get thoroughly documented for comparison pur...

Reichu, thank you for the reply. I am more interested about the possibility of the script being real than it being fake. I rarely post on forums these days, so my motivation for posting was to actually find if someone had evidence of the contrary of my hypothesis that the script might be fake, somet...

Reading old threads in the forum I was reminded of End of Evangelion’s alleged alternative endings, referred as Last A and Last B. In short. Does anyone know what is the original source for the alleged alternative endings and how reliable the source is? I know this is not new, but reevaluating the e...

Marfil: "Kone megane" is probably a pun on "honemegane", but I hadn't been aware of it. Good trivia to know. AFAIK, the sneak-peak would have been available with subtitles to those streaming it live, and that's probably how the notion of it being "kone megane" ...

骨眼鏡 (honemegane) in Google and Yahoo images gives tons of results for glasses similar to the one's Mari wears (in 2.22 and 3.0), and a few results of Mari itself. What seems to matter is the material (horn or horn-like plastic), rather than if the gla...

A very good Japanese learner friend of mine brought me up this question. Is コネメガネ (konemegane, glasses girl with power connections) supposed to be a pun on 骨眼鏡 (honemegane, horn-rimmed glasses )? Or are we mishearing what Asuka ...

Actually, it's the only and single one product placement in the whole movie.

There are not even vending machines, which speaks a lot of the magnitude of the Third Impact.

That picture of Rei in the black suit is indeed from the scene duo_rei is making reference. At the end of the movie, when Mark 9 is forced by Seele to infect Misato's ship, Rei is not at that moment in control of the Evangelion anymore.

Isn't she following Shinji and Asuka of her own accord at the end of the film? That could be inferred, but is not explicit. It's a scene with very little dialogue, and in Rei's part none at all. Asuka speaks to Rei, but doesn't order her, however there is absolutely nowhere else to ...

Someone asked if Rei picked up Shinji's SDAT music player at the end of the movie. In the last shot of the SDAT, Rei is shown next to it, but it's never shown that she picks it up. Up until that moment in the movie Rei is only following orders, literally, if there is no command she wouldn...

I second that request, I really want to know what's going on that scene.

From the OST EVANGELION:2.0 YOU CAN (NOT) ADVANCE my favorite songs are 翼をください - Tribute to "Sound of Music" and 今日の日はさようなら - Tribute to "Sound of Music", both ...
