I'm still damn sure (despite people's hopes) we won't actually see Eva Unit 04. Maybe a still of some sort that a character will look at but for some reason people are assuming there's gonna be a whole extended sequence set in Nevada so we can see the explosion first hand.

Nah. Don't think so. Anyone else?

I don't think it's going to be called "Don't be." From what I'v heard, it might be called "You are (Not) Worthless." Which is something that Shinji needs to learn about himself.

"You are (Not) Worthless."

That's a curious name, whats your source?


It would be a fitting name but I wasn't under the impression that they would be using the same English naming scheme.

Split out posts regarding Eva designs and stuff like that to this ancient and ignored thread. Use it, bitches.

I'm aware that we've been directed to a different thread...but I find my post more relevant to this one. Is this thread still in use? If so, here goes:
CorporalChaos wrote:The Judeo-Christian symbolism is a lot stronger with 12 Angels, and one of them would betray Shinji (Kaworu) in a Jesus/Judas sort of way. Kaworu betraying Shinji would set him up to recieve 3rd Imapct, which could at this point, be compared to Jesus's crucifixion, and then the rebirth of the world, which would compare to the resurrection of Jesus.


True about the 12 Angels, especially since "Shito" in Japanese translates more as "apostles" than "Angels"...but isn't the betrayal and all effectively the same ending as EoE?

Anyway, here's my speculation on the next film: "Glasses girl" is Mayumi Yamagishi, an human/angel character from Evangelion 2nd Impression, and she's probably the pilot of the provisional type EVA-05. It's said that EVA-06 comes down from the Moon, so I'm guessing that's Kaworu's Evangelion unit. (It even looks like him! See that silvery-white spiky "hairstyle" and the glowing red chin corresponding to his red-collared plugsuit and red eyes?)

It's to prevent that news on Rebuild 2.0 thread to become filled with just speculation instead of actual news. Only a temporary lock though.

That's nothing new in terms of speculation, although that's not GG's name. Her name is Mari. Also, she and Mayumi really don't look that alike:

Kensuke piloted EVA-04 in Battle Orchestra


And Kaworu piloted Eva-04 in the Eva2 game. Either way, I think what happens in the games will stay that way, considering Eva-04 will probably meet the same fate it has in the series. (Although that'd be ironic if Kensuke WAS an Eva Pilot, only for that to happen....)


Police girl: Uh, nobody knows yet with when it's coming out.

Kaworu pilots Eva-03 in SRW F (or SRW F Final, I'm not really sure). Not sure how that will contribute towards anything, but hey. Why not.

I thought that was a final boss battle though from the video of it I saw?

Anyway, I'm starting to think the release date for 2009 as being more and more likely...although there is the possibility of us getting Rebuild in late summer or fall or winter... At any rate, I hope the wait will just make 2.0 all the more "Epic".

I'm seeing it as a November/December release.

I don't know if Japan has any upcoming holidays but if they want to release it on the first of the month like they did Eva 1.0 (Sat. Sept 1), then Sat. November 1st would be the best bet.

But I'm thinking December. For Japan. Which means who knows when for the rest of the world. And that would be a bummer bootleg.

Ah...brings back memories of the announcement in 2006 (jesus was it really THAT long ago?) when Part 1 came out September '07, Part 2 December 07, and Part 3 + 4 in Summer '08.

I think it was misread and should be Part 1 in September '07. Part 2 in December '08. And Part 3 + 4 in Summer '10.

LOL.

When I first read the title, I thought it read 'Evangelion 2.0: Diversion'. So pretty much all this time, I've been going around saying, "hey everybody, did y'know the second film in the Eva Rebuild films is going to be called Evangelion 2.0: Diversion"? Hahahaha.

D'oh, I'm such an idiot sometimes. >.<
