Re: -46h (GENERAL) [SPOILER]

Monitoring JP Twitter, in addition to the above there is a voiced motion comic of -120mins included too.

Re: -46h (GENERAL)

So, Tuesday earliest? Does Japan famously never have a retailer crack and accidentally break street date?

Re: where was the live action footage in End of Evangelion filmed (and who is in it?)

The live action portions, which were originally different and significantly longer, had the voice actors playing the roles. The characters in the street are actually mannequins as the above video showed. Deleted live action sequences were shot 19th-25th January 1997, while the reshot materials were ...

Re: Shin Eva - Official Blu-ray Release 2022!

My reading there is that normally you get charged and then it gets shipped as close to the release date as possible, but because of the huge demand they have to get their ducks in a row so they're gonna charge a month in advance so the shipping will all happen when it's supposed to instead of everyo...

Re: -46h (GENERAL)

I can't see the neck but I believe it's the original 2.0 suit but still before any taping.

I was expecting -120 min's red-Mari-05 plugsuit instead but whatever.

Re: -46h (GENERAL)

The red symbols probably should be hex pilar symbology, but they don't seem to be. They're simpler and less dense. The two holographic displays in front of Asuka, I tried to read them in case it identifies anything interesting, but the largest word in the middle of both are just the word "ACTIV...

Re: Shin Eva - Official Blu-ray Release 2022!

It's pretty clear that Wille finding Shinji and preparing for Operation US two days before it is the frame story, and how they feel about that and flashbacks to at least Third Impact are the meat of the thing. Thing is,that could be less than 10 minutes and these scenes are narrated over with quick ...

Re: Shin Eva-Official Social Media: 3.33 You Can (Not) Be Localized

I browsed the official Evangelion account after seeing the tweet with the first images of -46h, and there's a tweet from January 6th about the last days of the Anno Expo: And the fourth illustration caught my eye, since it's a concept art for 3.0 dated from 2012 (so the year of its release): https:...

Mandela effect? But I do remember her drinking something from a plastic cup and being surrounded by several other cups in her cockpit in at least one scene... I rewatched these movies a year or so ago several times and this image sure left an impression on me. I'll watch them again. In Dogma during...

Re: Government report on HIP

Machine translation but it's about Apostles/Shito/Angels and the HIP, but everything redacted is about Angel development and biology and it's all broken and censored.

Re: Is Rei’s hair literally blue?

Like when you have anime where entirely western characters are speaking Japanese and adopting Japanese mannerisms, you kinda have to let go and accept that you are watching a cartoon - a very anatomically correct cartoon - but a cartoon nonetheless. No mouse has ever looked, stood, dressed, or spoke...

Re: Hideaki Anno's Bonbori Matsuri Lantern 2022

See me constantly biting my tongue because I've been planning a 2.5 fancomic for a while now and I'm extremely familiar with the issues and possibilities. Despite a lack of critical info, a 2.5 story that covers N3I to 3I itself is kinda easy and you can depict what you need to depict while getting ...

Re: Hideaki Anno's Bonbori Matsuri Lantern 2022

Another thing is, the previous lantern illustrations were for projects that were expected and announced. This would constitute a soft announcement or tease, which, considering this isn't being presented on either Khara Twitter account and is only sourced from photos from one visitor via eva--fan, wo...

Re: Hideaki Anno's Bonbori Matsuri Lantern 2022

A few points since this thing's existence is making me manic: -Moyocco also had a lantern there, and it was also a print rather than hand drawn. Prints might be more of a theme this year? -This isn't really a "production reference". It's an actual cel shaded model. Either a whole thing exi...

Re: TV Production Timeline

These are all things I've read before and taken into account for the timeline and the theoretical schedule. The problem with working out episode completion dates is that episode production is very non-linear, and different aspects of production can be done long in advance, and with different drafts ...

Gainax-Net is/was Gainax's official website with news, and I used it as a source for a number of announcements via Wayback Machine. Unfortunately for everyone else but fortunately for me, the extent is October 1996, where they reconfirm a May 1996 movie announcement and announce another, as describe...

The Red Cross Book was a pamphlet released with EoE that served as a glossary and was a bible for early 00s Eva fandom, yes.

Re: How exactly was Eva released in the USA?

ADV licensed Evangelon pretty quick and the first two episode were out on VHS in August 1996 and would continue though to 1998. A while back members of Evageeks discovered a tape containing, after some clarification/investigation from myself, a bootleg fansub of episode 1 using the JP VHS version (F...

Re: Is it reasonable to believe that people would blame Shinji for 3I?

I'll need someone to recheck lines but I'm pretty sure those two characters are the few on the crew whose parents died directly because of N3I.
