Nice, 1 month earlier than I predicted!
I mean, predictability is the central attraction and the narrative hook that we've all come to expect from the Evangelion franchise. How come Anno can't realize this? Twice? - FreakyFilmFan4ever

Confirmation from Evangelion.co.jp to clear up any lingering doubt: https://www.evangelion.co.jp/news/

It says they'll start posting posters and distributing flyers soon.
Someday I hope that we'll be reunited if that is what's destined to be. Perhaps we'll discover that elusive bible. And then we will finally be free!

I've been hearing some conflicting things about what was actually shown at the premiere of Weathering With You. Was a trailer shown, or was it just a simple announcement?

If I read things correctly, it was a new trailer/visuals. Hopefully we'll see in several hours (depending where you are in the world).

Later than I was hoping for (against all odds), earlier than expected.
I'll be watching late 2020.

About a year left till "let's see if I can avoid Evangelion spoilers on the internet" period.

Also, congrats to Anno. He made it (or is really close).

According to some tweets the trailer shows

- The Wunder fleet
- Unit 02 being deployed
- Asuka, Rei, Mari
- Shinji, Kaworu

The pilots are supposedly wearing black.

Also something about Fuyutsuki giving off the air of a "last boss". Are we going to get a glorious fusion of Fuyutsuki and Gargoyle at long last? :tongue:

I saw something similar.
If several tweets are mentioning it it might be true?

Fuyu has always been God tier, so it makes sense.

Jesus this is going to be a loaded film. Still no Misato (Unless she was seen in the fleet clip), I'm starting to get nervous that she'll get whacked early on, have little role in the movie or actually made irredeemable (If she hasn't suffered enough hate by the fanbase already). :sniffle:

Kaworu again? Well we know how that'll end... :uhh: :rolleyes:

Fuyutsuki main villain? Heh, sure I'll roll with that! :devil:

Quick takeaway:

Asuka is no longer holding Shinji's wrists. He's following her and Rei himself. He's getting better, though he's still slouching.

Some scenes are still going to be with the kids walking the red ruins. UYCTM/Peaceful Times storyboards might come into play.

Shinji looks at his SDAT. He looks pensive.

Ritsuko and Misato seem tense, unsure of a what to do.

Evil "Boss Fuyu" seems to be acting independently now. Might be using his own Reis.

Kaworu shows up in one frame, looking sideways at Shinji, wearing his school uniform. He maintains his usual creepy smile.

I'm going to wager that Kaworu was indeed absorbed into Unit 13 and he now has some sort of psychic link to Shinji and seems to be some sort of apparition/hallucination. The shot is a bit weird and unnerving, like Kaworu doesn't belong there. If we assume Reichu's theories to be right, then this is like Kaworu now acting as a phantom presence to try and sway Shinji towards Instrumentality. (post/888166/Adams-Children-and-the-Nature-of-the-Cycle/). Whereas Asuka, Misato, Mari et al are there, real people, in reality. Particularly, if Asuka also shares a link to Unit 13 as let Reichu's theory, then she might also be aware of this and try to counter Kaworu's influence.

First, AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Second, I was kinda expecting a trailer, and not another “Next Episode Preview.” Doesn’t matter, though, this thing is awesome!

My favorite part right now are the pilots walking through streets and seeing consequences of Impact. Maybe we’ll get some more explanation as to what really happened during N3I, but from Asuka rather than Kaworu.

Unit 02 flying through all of the (what I assume are) headless Evas scurrying through the air reminds me of Shinji seeing all of the swimming, giggling Reis in EoE.

Also, Fuyutsuki might be reprising Rei III’s role from EoE as the ultimate betrayal towards Gendo. I had never considered that, but it makes sense. Anno’s been hinting at Fuyu’s wavering loyalty in Eva Q. If this is really happening, though, I’m gonna lose my fucking mind.

Watch it before it gets removed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XHSoKcG4i0

New Eva 02 dropped down from Wunder to a swarm of Failures of infinity?

Wunder flying to where the 5th impact is.

Shinji, Asuka and Rei walking in the ruined Tokyo-03

Eva-13 is hold in the red cross control system we see during the "Rei is a clone and Yui is in Eva-01" scene in 3.0. Fuyutsuki (EDIT: Likely Gendo, since the figure has similar pose to him) is in front of the Eva. (Unit-13 is still pierced with two Longinus spears)

Shinji and Kaworu.

The fact that Eva-13 is restrained in the "early Eva control system" cross from 3.0 implies that someone is going to be put into the core, just like Yui.
