Marzan Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Is the Evangelion manga worth reading? Yes, very much so. It's pretty much the same story, but with tiny changes here and there that give and alternate POV to events. Sadamoto also develops the characters relationships differently, and one might say with a bit more love for the characters he worked with for almost 20 years. And the manga has a rather interesting epilogue that raises some interesting questions. But like I said it's still the same story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Wonder if they'll give away SDAT players to the first passengers. In other news, apparently Final will be out this winter, and Animator Expo will have a 3rd related short. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronocidal Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 I hope they model one section to be a completely outdated interior, perpetually lit in sunset tones. Plug-suited crew would be pushing things a bit over the top though. That'd be almost like combining mass transit with a maid cafe. Not that I wouldn't expect Japan to do it (or love to see it myself), but still.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Hingtgen Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Props for picking the best-looking Shinkansen. (The 700 and everything after is ugly IMHO) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Anyone else picking up the series blu-ray set this month? That blue cube is beautiful (dvd set is red). Even without subs, I can't pass up the remaster, and can't wait to see how good EOE looks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marzan Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 That's an amazing looking set. But then again Evangelion deserved something that special. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M'Kyuun Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Not sure if I'm all that interested in a new Japanese Godzilla movie, but I can understand Anno's becoming a bit burnt out on Evangelion. I hope he enjoys his time away from it, recharges, and come back to finish it with a sense of care and delight, rather than a feeling of dread and pressure to complete it. Even stuff you care deeply about can seem a burden if you stay at it too long, or you begin doing it out of a sense of obligation rather than enjoyment. I enjoyed the first three Rebuild movies, and I look forward to the fourth once Anno-san returns to complete it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captain america Posted July 22, 2016 Author Share Posted July 22, 2016 I guess that means that the final film is easily a year away at this rate, assuming that they already have some basic groundwork laid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marzan Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 I guess that means that the final film is easily a year away at this rate, assuming that they already have some basic groundwork laid. You're being rather optimistic. I think the very earliest we see this is 2019 if that. Anno has said how 3.0 took everything out of him and he's not the fastest of operators as it is.

Marzan Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 It's been a year since we last had activity in this thread, but we haven't exactly had much news now have we? Well, its not much, but at least now we have a concept image/poster on the front of the Evangelion website (who knows for how long). http://www.evangelion.co.jp/ "After That and THE END. Not and ANTI. Evangelion 3.0+1.0. In production by Studio Khara" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kajnrig Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Evangelion 1.0 - generally same as the anime, up to Ramiel fight (pyramid Angel, super-laser, Operation Yashima) Evangelion 2.0 - diverges more heavily from anime, Third Impact begins and ends after Zeruel fight Evangelion 3.0 - Nerv (Gendo, Rei, Kaworu) vs. Wunder (Misato, Asuka, new Eva girl), Shinji plays a piano, Fourth Impact happens ...I'm fuzzy on that last one, I didn't pay too much attention to it owing to it tunneling so very far up its own ass.

Hikuro Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 My ex and I were enjoying the films a lot until we saw 3.33 and we decided to never speak about evangelion again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, rumor has it the movies are supposed to be a sequel to the original series, in terms of how Shinji would have shaped the world after the events in The End of Evangelion. It's noticeable by the way the characters treat him, and other situations that were traumatizing for him on the series that play out entirely different on the movies. That being said, i agree on the third movie being hard to digest. Too many things happening that made it hard to keep track of what was going on. Still want to watch the last movie, though.
