So maybe a new trailer will be released?

I’m just now realizing that Megumi Ogata is the only lead voice actress from Eva that we haven’t seen in a Shin Eva clip yet, despite her being the only actress tweeting as many updates on the project as she does. It’s like she’s trying to remind us that she’s still in the movie or something.

I'm not sure what you mean. We haven't heard Miyamura or Hayashibara playing their characters either. And Shinji does appear in Trailer #2.

There's no conspiracy. Megumi Ogata is just very present on Twitter. Far more so than the rest of the cast I think. She tweets often about her personal life, who she's hanging out with, what's on her mind, what she ate and what she's working on. She's tweeting more about some currently airing anime that she's in - I don't know the show - than she does Evangelion at the moment.

There undoubtably will be a lot of Shinji in Final and the character will likely be front and center in the film like he was in End of Evangelion & 3.0 but the marketing has always leaned more on the female pilots.

No conspiracy or agenda. Megumi Ogata just tweets a fair amount.

^ I didn't think there was one, I just thought it was weird/amusing coincidence. However...

Just think about how long the recording process for this movie took... Either there were a lot of rewrites, or Anno was veeeeerrryyy particular. Extremely curious to see the end product now.

He's likely very particular since this is very likely his last go around with Evangelion forever - after NGE+EOE he was still very much a working director and now he's like one of the biggest & most successful filmmakers in Japan with his own studio who can basically pick & choose what he wants to do so returning to old works seems slim at best - BUT the movie being broken up into various Parts just leads me to believe they recorded the film at different times over a period of months and breaking the film up into manageable blocks. Record one part in the summer, have the animation team spend the next six months focused on that act of the film and when that is almost locked down bring the actors back for the next part and so on and so on.

But this is going to be Anno's last hurrah with Evangelion for sure so he'll want yo end things on a high note.

^

It's only for the best for Anno to not work on Eva anymore after FINAL. It wasn't told that more was planned than these 4 films for Rebuild. I do though look forward for his next projects together with fulfilling his youth dream with his own Ultraman film. Making Godzilla Resurgence before he was ready for FINAL was also a good choice.

What should be importaint for others working on Eva after Anno, is that they shouldn't risk to have the same difficulty working on it as for Anno, regarding how long it's been now.

I'm open to watch more new Eva from others at Khara, but it's certain that Eva as we know it from Anno should be over and nothing should be left open to do.
I carry out things right to the end. No. Matter. What.

I do wonder if he's worn out on directing since he wrote Shin Ultraman but isn't directing.

^ Yep.

I'm sure Toho came to him hoping he'd direct a Shin Ultraman but Anno was busy with Eva. So the project went to Shinji Higuchi but Anno still put in the time and effort to write a script.
Anno has been very open & apologetic in interviews about the long delay between 3.0 & the final Eva film but he could not pass up the chance to do his own version of Godzilla. He was not going to put the final Eva film on hold for anything.

There is still that mysterious 2022 project he hinted at in last years Lantern Festival to consider. That could be a project he's just producing OR it could be a whole new feature film that he's gonna jump into working on soon.

Anno actually is more of an Ultraman fan than a Godzilla fan (I think). In one of the Spanish Shin Godzilla bluray's special features Higuchi mentions how Anno said he can't do a film where the character has a tail. Contrasting Godzilla and Ultraman (obviously he could).
But yeah, seems like it was time. But that just means he can do something else after Eva.

∆ It's releasing soon through the Eva-Extra app for free. :)
Also this plus the overhaul of the app makes me even more convinced that we could get a trailer this friday or really soon.

Our man Shiro at work.



Google Translation : #Eva Music Tan 4

Sabino's first Abbey Road was 35 years ago. My first work with the orchestra was 28 years ago when I was attracted to the credits of the masterpiece Slave to the Rhythm and asked for it. The former leader is the legendary Gavyn Wright. Current leader Perry Montague-Mason. Starting with a full orchestra today and going to this quartet #evangelion . Service service ぅ!


If you go to his account he's sharing a few other things and he's deep in collaboration with other artists at Abbey Road specifically for Eva Final.

∆ So excited to get more of his work.

Between the Eva-Extra app overhaul and now more info on the Eva Battlefield game (which it seems they want to be huge) I'm starting to be pretty sure a trailer is/was supposed to come out tomorrow.
