1) I don't moan
2) Unit 01 being isolated and then retrieved in space makes sense.
I have no idea what really happens, but maybe they sent it in space in order to retrieve the lance and make sure earth wouldn't be destroyed in the process, or something like that? And once they see nothing happens, they retrieve the eva.
But maybe it's something else. Damn if only there was an international release. It's terrible to have everything spoiled before we can finally watch it like 1 years later in good conditions...

What lance are you talking about? One's stuck in Lilith, one was in Mark 06's hands (and then Eva-01's back).

I'm pretty sure that's from the bubbles in the LCL.

Asuka's line "to Shinji" is, I believe, 「何とかしなさいよ、バカシンジ」. Not quite sure how to translate that.
At the end, Kaworu says, 「お帰りなさい、碇シンジ君。待っていたよ」 ("Welcome home, Shinji Ikari. I've been waiting [for you]"). This perhaps corroborates the guess that Eva-01 has been in space for a while?
I'm hoping that they do a flash-backward after the opening scene, so we can see some of the events that we missed out on, but I guess I won't hold my breath.

Yeah, thats what I was thinking, just getting a second opinion :)
Thinking it might give weight to the Asuka as part-angel or part-eva theory.
Meanwhile thank you to the sender of the PM allowing me to point and laugh at all the silly sods on a certain board pushing sequel theory. Its over guys, Word Of God says no.

You know, after 2.0 I kept saying "how the hell are they going to top this?" I think they just did. That was one of the most kinetic, visually inventive fight scenes I've seen since.... well, ever.
That said, I did find elements of it somewhat visually confusing- for example, I'm really not sure what's going on after Asuka lands on the tesseract and the angel..... fires a laser at her? There's a big cross shaped light burst and she starts screaming. This will probably be clearer with subtitles, so I'll reserve judgement.
(speaking of which, is it an angel they're fighting? It looked awfully mechanical, which makes me think it could actually be some sort of defense mechanism for the tesseract (you can hear Asuka talk about "anti AT field" at one point when the screaming missile thing flies at her), but on the other hand the disc thing explodes into blood like the other angels. Unless someone is Evangelion-izing angels by attaching armour to them, which is a wicked cool idea so I hope that's actually what's happening).
Edit: after watching it again, it looks like the angel is using its mirror tentacles to focus sunlight on Unit-02. Which again is wicked cool.

I could only hope! Although, I would rather they all be bisexual, with lots of three-ways and stuff like that while still retaining a primary S-O...

This segment is pretty disorienting. This is what I can infer:
It begins with just radio chatter between Eva and Nerv?, IPEA?, IKEA HQ? The radio chatter does have Misato, Ritsuko, Mayo and the guy who wants to fuck Misato but can't not Kaji, I forget his name. Eva-02 is sent to space with two twin towers(Symbolism for 9/11?) that keep Asuka oriented in space.
The next part is a bit confusing, Arael is the one who sent little purple bombs? Which explode around Asuka. The Angel then does a direct attack letting out a screech. That little robot looking thing with the string of AT-Fields is the angel. Angel breaks through Asuka's AT field. Destroy's the front of Asuka's space gear. Asuka tosses the helmet. Asuka begins to dodge. MARI IN SPACE CONFIRMED. MARI PILOT OF EVA-08 CONFIRMED.
Mari shoots some rounds to stop the Angel's bombs from hitting Asuka. Asuka see's the Dali Cross. It somehow captured the angel. Asuka tries to stop the Cross from entering the atmosphere. She reels it back with her grappling hook and lands on it. She activates the boosters to stabilize. She loses the boosters like space shuttle launches do. The angel frees itself. The shiny panels you see are the angel's arms? The angel is the center robot looking thing that the arms come from. The arms surround Asuka and begin attack. Mari fires one last shot.
Mari ditches Asuka, fearing for her own life. Asuka attempts to out maneuver the angel. The Angel then leaves the center moving on the arms. Asuka then starts kicking the Cross, most likely trying to get Shinji to do something. Asuka has a chat with Misato on radio. The Angel then fucks the shit out of Eva-02, blowing off her left arm. Asuka is in pain she shout baka Shinji. Eva-01 breaks a hole from within the cross with its laser eye. Eva-01 uses its eye to break the Angel's arms and chases the Angel itself which the fast moving console. Eva-01 laser catches up and destroys the angel. You see Eva-01's eye, notice the slight emotion and quivering of Eva-01's pupil. Asuka and Eva-01 eyes shortly see each other, they both quiver in the same manner. They enter the atmosphere. Kaworu looks at the cross as it enters the atmosphere. Says something in Japanese along the lines of" Hello Shinji Ikari, I've been waiting.".
This seems to be one of the first if not the opening scene of Eva 3.0, matching Evangelion 2.0's ending. Mari and Asuka are on the same side,seemingly. Mari might actually be a traitor, as she quickly abandons Asuka to save her own skin. Shinji and Rei are still in the Eva, encased in balaktite, the red crystal stuff from EoE. Shinji seems to be conscious enough to hear Asuka's call and react accordingly. The cross seems to be a container for Eva-01 and one of the ends of the cross contain the angel. I don't understand why Eva-01 was in space, as back-up? Or is the angel capture some sort of an attempt to somehow release Shinji from the Eva. Eva-06 is no where to be seen in combat. Is it too valuable to be used and risk damage and infection due to it being the 'true Evangelion' as stated by Seele? Is the Angel a sort of infection on machinery like Bardiel? That angel seems to be a sort of robot and not a normal angel. Will there be less fan service? From what can I see, no. Even during a space battle, Asuka's boobs seem to take full advantage of zero-G at 2:47.
