Behold, the non-cam recorded version of the first trailer of the upcoming Evangelion movie. Now that everything can be seen clearly the animation is now obviously breathtakingly gorgeous. The wait is getting more painful. >_

If you overlook the inherent fail that is Shinji, this movie looks like it’s going to be awesome. Then again, even if it sucks, Gainax will still rake in the cash from the countless NGE fans out there that religiously praise it. ~ Shirukii ~

The two single character designs can be found on both 50g and 90g bag sizes but only [...]

Rebuild of Evangelion 1st Trailer [Youtube version | LQ] My heart stopped for a moment when I first came across this. I’m dead serious. This is beyond awesome! Much of the trailer shows a lot of what was in the original series but there are obviously some differences that we haven’t seen [...]

Rebuild of Evangelion trailer (YouTube version) My friend just alerted me to this first released footage of Rebuild of Evangelion first trailer. The footage is grainy because it's shot inside a theatre but it seems legit because it comes complete with the information on when ticket goes on sale. I'll try to update this entry once I find a much better version of the trailer but until the official site release it, I don't think it'll be likely. My first impression upon seeing the trailer was that it doesn't look that different from the old version of Evangelion. However, on a closer look, the animation and character design are far more refined than the one in DVD/VHS. That version of Fly Me to the Moon by Utada Hikaru is god-awful though. I never thought I'll hear a bad version of Fly Me to the Moon. I even like the Jungle version of the song. At any rate, I'm excited to see the film and actually entertain the idea of going back to Japan again just to see the film. Rebuild of Evangelion will be released in theatres in Japan starting on September 1st 2007.

Am I an asshole because I harbour a deep-seated hatred for Evangelion? I should say, it’s not the product itself that fills me with intense hatred. Rather, the product rouses little more than a “meh” from me, but its fanbase — its image makes me seethe. I sit there with a furrowed brow, wondering how anyone [...]

Thanks to shiawasekun, I managed to secure the Volks Custama-P Evangelion Rei and Asuka. From what I heard, we were the only lucky 2 to get Rei in the shipment ^_^ These pair of PVC figurines are certainly costly. Costing 6,800 yen each. They certainly burnt a huge hole in my pocket. (What else would you [...]

Because I couldn’t resist poking fun at RightStuf’s out-of-nowhere acquisition of Victorian Romance Emma, I’ll take it a bit further. As of the writing of this post: Both sets - yes, they are released in sets only and not by DVD - are set to debut on December 12, 2012. Their official page for the series. has [...]
