I'm still not sure I buy it, but I'm as happy to squee over Asuka as the next guy.

Squee. Squee. Listen to me squee.

Yes, I know. You thought it would be something about Asuka. You're such idiots.

It certainly has been fun. Now who's going to clean up all this blown mind all over the place?

Looks like the initial report was a half-truth troll. So no she is not.

That's assuming this isn't a half-truth troll, but this is backed up by promotional scans.

TL;DR Kaoru still dies, everything way more fucked up.

Also looks like Rei ("a" Rei? "the" Rei? who else has white hair?) standing by the ejected plug. Standing atop the plug is Asuka, and to the side, a despondant Shinji.

Word on the playground is that was a mistranslation. She's apparently OK, but did fight against Shinji/Kawrou in the climax.

Still not sold on the two-pilot idea. Seems kind of like a rip-off of Gurren Lagann, plus I can't imagine how the "Evas have souls" concept will fit in with this. Does Eva-13 have two cores, or is Yui meant to provide for both Shinji and Kaworu? Does Kaworu even have a mother in this continuity?

I can only imagine what seeing the actual movie is going to be like. I expect it to be a transcendental experience. God will emerge from my television in the form of a fourteen year old anime girl and explain the inner workings of the universe to my fractured mind.

Does this even matter anymore? As far as I'm concerned, this universe has already shattered itself to impossible heights for breaking it's "own rules".

Up to page 18, will have to come back to it later since I have to go out.

But here is a question you can think about while I'm gone:
Is there any mention of Yui at all in what we've been told/shown so far? As in, is there any continuation to the 'your Mum's an eva' hints of the first two films?

Not AFAIK. If Rei is out of focus (which seem to be impression for now) what are chances for Yui to get focus, especially when she's been forced into bioterror coitus with that Mark 6 bastard?

Hey don't shit on me. Those bits were ones I made sure to translate as precisely as possible. It's the 2ch posters who were out of it.

Though given how moronic and lost the first guy sonded half the time ("they explained that but I didn't quite get it lol") it isn't surprising just imprecise moments might slip in

Don't forget there's been no mention of souls in the new movies, at least not in this context. Gendo's comment in Break aside it's entirely possible that souls have nothing to do with Eva operation this time around.

I notice none of the "spoilers" mention the Mari+Rei+Rei clones scene, is there any info on that?

Wouldn't you know, the direct continuation of a movie I've spent the past three years bashing for relying too heavily on a fanfic-y original character and diverging too far from the source material now has the fandom up in arms over even more new characters getting thrown in and a ridiculous timeskip plot that has completely removed the story from anything remotely resembling the source material.

This is what happens when you let 2.0 make more money than 1.0.

I hate being right.

I hope you weren't exactly hoping for any of the preview footage at end of 2.0 to end up in 3.0, especially given how lenghty the production schedule got.

I'm sure Anno again scrapped all plans he might've had at time 2.0 came out only to replace them with heightened insanity

I guess you didn't get the whole memo about "destroying" Eva way back when?

Personally I'd much rather take creative insanity, whether results are shit or not, over lame rehash of series that didn't need one in the first place.

Theres been barely anything about any of the stuff we've seen in the 2.0 next time preview. Hell, no-ones even spotted Kaji yet :S

On unrelated matters, do we or do we not have Eva's first black characters?

Also: Sequel Theory. Yeah, hows that going then? Did those theories cover a sequel that hasnt happened yet I wonder.
