your version seems to be different than the poster version where there is more brownish hair.

Mr Tines: you can't be suggesting that is what's going on in the scene?

Also I just want to point out in the poster that the sea is now clear colour instead of red. It seems they are going to revert the third impact chaos in this movie

I'm super duper weak for that sort of "person allowing tormented lover to rest in their arms/lap" thing .///.

The only way this could be better would be if Nagisa-kun looked all melancholy too 'cause he can't make it better though he really, really wants to

Not loop theory again! :fuyu_facepalm:

The lighting in that scene is low and shifted towards blue from the looks of it. Soryu's hair is redder than Shiki's and would appear darker, and looking at the images we have of Soryu in low light, the animators consistently had her hair redder and darker than that. So it's not Soryu but a younger Shiki. As to her hair color being different, perhaps Shiki had a lighter shade of brown hair when she was younger? A lot of kids born with light hair and eye colors have them darken as they grow up, that's why "baby blue eyes" are a thing.

I never understood why people hate the Rebuild because it's different and love the Series, can we just love it all without creating dilemmas and unnecessary discussions?

Is there anyone like me who suspects that Gendo knew about Shinji's red eyes but instead did not know and had no idea what that purple light in the last frame was? Maybe Yui, aware that Gendo would use Shinji, was able to give her son through experiment with the soul of one of the Adams more power than SEELE and Gendo were aware of and what they considered necessary for the success of the Instrumentality.

I decided to just get all my thoughts out on it by doing a breakdown video of it:

Thanks for the new icon material, had to switch to that one because I just REALLY love that shot! :D

Anyway, I just realized that it's a wooden watchtower, unusually low-tech if it's in a Wille base so this scene will definitely take place in the Lilin settlement. You guys remember that Kensuke loves to camp alone? Well, if he indeed made it (with Toji and everyone's help, of course) looks like the survival skills he learned from being a military otaku have proven to be a lot more helpful than expected. ^_^

Is this then a shot of Asuka not being able to drop the vigilance in a peaceful moment, or feeling separated from the masses, be it through her life on the frontlines or the physical effects of piloting? A grizzled veteran keeping watch? #Feels

She & Mari are going to have a hard time adjusting to life after the war even when they're finally free, aren't they? Though I suppose it has been done, and it will make for good fanfic, the surviving pilots adjusting to life after the war in a post apocalyptic setting. They'd all have somewhat different challenges if they live, even the ones who faced relatively similar fates like Asuka and Mari.

That does look like the old plugsuit with a jacket thrown over her, so I'm inclined to think you're very much on the money

While it never snows in Japan after the Second Impact, it should be noted that even after Near-Third Impact there's a part of the world that still snows (e.g. Wille's temporary base in the beginning of 3.0), wouldn't be impossible if this hypothetical flashback scene takes place in Europe, maybe somewhere in German or England. Maybe a scene with smol Asuka and Mari to flesh out these two's backstory'? They've been closely associated with each other in Rebuild and I think it's more than being fellow Eva pilots for the last fourteen years, their relationship is almost sister-like. We'll see. ^_^


This one has perplexed me to, I'm also not sure if its flashback as Asuka's left eye in 2.22 was damaged, but it could be really young Asuka or maybe that patch is from a later battle.

Take a look at Shiki's hair color in this shot. It's very likely that we're seeing a younger Shiki in similar lighting conditions.

This trailer has reminded me again how much I love EVA.

I got the vibes that the ending is going to be similar to the manga.

I couldn't help but take notice of Hyuga and Aoba's moment in the locker room where they (I'm assuming it's still them) fist bump each other. Does that mean that in exchange for sacrificing NGE Ritsuko/Maya relationship, we get a confirmed yaoi relationship in these two?

Your pic isn't working but I agree that it's "North europe Winter Light"(TM) right now the sun only comes out from 11am to 3pm and when it does its that sort of wan grey light. I haven't seen the sun since early October, and neither has Baby Asuka.

Compare with the shot where she's in the car with Misato in 2.0, which also has her with whitish light.

They wouldn't put those two talking privately in the locker room in the trailer and fist bumping each other if it wasn't important, right? Or is it as Misato would put it, fan service.

I believe that Misato and Gendo have shot each other this would explain why Gendo's visor is damaged and the blood on Misato's arm ... All this would happen in front of a shocked Ritsuko and a Shinji who instead of having an adequate reaction is so disgusted both by the cold and selfish way in which both Misato and Gendo used him for their goals and by their violence. Furthermore, we may have had confirmation that Gendo like Keel Lorenz is now a sort of cyborg

Whether in a body or reanimated from LCL, Kaworu is likely the pilot of Eva13.

Some supporting evidence:

The pose of Eva13 when encountering Eva01 is very similar to the relaxed body language of Kaworu
Image
The juxtaposition between Shinji and Kaworu in the trailer
ImageImage

I theorize that our "One Last Kiss" will be a battle that echoes Kaworu's death scene in EvaTV. Shinji will be met by Eva13 and coaxed into battle. Kaworu will push Shinji to his breaking point, causing him to go berserk. Kaworu will easily match his power, and will continue to coax out more power until Shinji has him in submission, a la:

Kaworu Nagisa:
It is my destiny to live forever, though my survival will bring destruction to the human race. However, it is possible for me to be killed, and whether I live or die makes no great difference. In truth, death may be the only absolute freedom there is.

Shinji Ikari:
What are you? Kaworu, I don't understand. What you are talking about, Kaworu?

Kaworu Nagisa:
This is my wish: please, destroy me. Otherwise, you will be destroyed. Only one life-form can be chosen to evade the destruction and seize the future! And yours is not the existence which should die. You need the future; it is what you live for! Thank you Shinji, my life was meaningful because of you.


Kaworu will then encourage Shinji to kill him, since there is no alternative outcome that favors Lillin.

Image
Shinji did nothing wrong!
