How do you make a gacha game when there's only...what...eight, fifteen EVA models across the entire franchise?

Actually, if we count the Mass-Produced EVAs, the ANIMA EVA units, that one EVA from that one CG Japan Animator Expo short, and the other video game exclusive EVA units, we should be looking at a total of 38 EVA units from across the entire franchise plus its various non-anime spin-offs.

If we squeeze in Jet Alone and its video game-exclusive upgraded form, that's 40 units in total.

If they want to also factor in Gunbuster, who appeared as a guest fighter in one EVA-themed fighting game, that's 41.

...But then, as I type all of this, it occurs to me that all those video games and spin-off stuff were from the Gainax era of EVA. And since Khara owns 100% of EVA and Gainax is pretty much deader than a dead horse, then I guess I'm rather stumped. tongue

Eva Dawn, which did see an English release, came out a couple of years ago and did have Anima as among it's roster. Not to mention the books have been coming out recently. And Super Eva and Crimson A1 are in the roster for Super Robot Wars X-Ω. Anyway, if I remember correctly, the pilots and the support characters are part of the gatcha for Battlefields.

Metalocalypse, Hey Arnold, Kingdom Hearts, Twin Peaks, Samurai Jack, Invader Zim, Rebuild of Eva... so many long-awaited conclusions these days, I love it! One of the few unambiguously good things about the latter half of the '10s and 2020 if you ask me!

[up] Funny you should mention Kingdom Hearts, because their go-to singer Utada Hikaru's song "One Last Kiss" is 3.0 + 1.0's theme song!

EDIT: Oh, apparently she's contributed to Rebuild more than a few times. Still, though.

[up][up][up] How curious... the cover album is Shinji and Rei, with Shinji smiling while Rei looks surprised.

But then again, it makes sense since Rei has been with Shinji since the beginning in this Rebuild series and is essentially the secondary protagonist.

She's the only pilot to appear in 1.0 along with Shinji and the climax of their relationship is smiling for the first time to Shinji; she is the reason why Shinji unwittingly unleashed the Third Impact (in an effort to save her) in 2.0; and her absence and Rei Q's emotionless persona was the final straw that broke Shinji's mental state after his 14-year hibernation. One has to wonder what would be the endgame for those two...

It occurs to me, there's not been any word on international release has there? After all this time, with it releasing in theaters in just over a month, the wait for a translation just might be the hardest wait of all (I don't want to know anything they haven't already shown in trailers before I watch it)

I don't think we'll have another fiasco like Rebuild 3.0's translation.

There is a part of me that worries Khara might drop Funimation and get a new cast and crew, but I don't think that's likely.

PSA: both the Evangelion subreddit and Evageeks are saying that Khara's official Twitter account is warning the fans that they're doing pre-screenings of the movie to non-staff audiences, so everyone be on the lookout for spoilers.

There is apparently a new version of 3.33 heading to theaters in Japan on January 8 called 3.333.

Anyway, . . .

We have a new trailer featuring the song One Last Kiss. I'm not embedding it in case someone doesn't want to see it, but a do see a little bit of a Unit 01 vs Unit 13 fight.

Evageeks is speculating that there might be a flashback at one point.

Ah yes Kaworu shows up exactly when it says One Last Kiss.

[up] It's probably a red herring (because EVA might as well be the king of fake-outs), but Asuka has her eyepatched eye restored.

Maybe it's a robot eye?

I think its more likely the Angel grew ut back, since its still alive in some form in said eye.

The angel entered Asuka through that eye, and Bardiel is associated heavily with blue.

From what some people at Evageeks were saying that image of asuka may be a flashback.

So, I'm guessing from the last trailer that Shinji gains some degree of control over his powers?

Instead of focusing on relatives that divide us, maybe we should try to find the absolutes that tie us.
