]]> http://www.evageeks.org/2010/06/2-0-screening-in-montreal/feed/ 0 Evangelion 2.22 New scenes http://www.evageeks.org/2010/05/evangelion-2-22-new-scenes/ http://www.evageeks.org/2010/05/evangelion-2-22-new-scenes/#comments Sat, 08 May 2010 22:21:53 +0000 SailorStarDust http://www.evageeks.org/?p=1188 The Noguchi version screening of 2.22 occurred in Hakone yesterday, and one of the Evangelion blogs discussed the new additions to the film.

Spoilers in the rest of this post!

The first big addition involves a discussion between Shinji, Toji, and Kensuke when Kaji arrives to Japan. The second addition involves the 3 pilots (Asuka, Shinji, and Rei) at a synchro test, which is where Asuka says her new line (mentioned awhile back in Eva Extra 06) “What a shame!”. The blog states that Asuka’s line is “so splendidly nonchalant that you feel cheated”.

Little additions include the following (several of which are in the 2.22 promotional video):

    *Eva-01 jumping over a bridge and takes a bunch of water with her during the 8th Angel catching scene.
    *Eva-03 being air-lifted.
    *Eva-02 back-flipping during the 10th Angel battle.
    *The 10th Angel attacking a building.

According to the blog, the supplement cuts are a welcome addition to the film and are meant for the fans.

Also worth noting according to the blog is the arrangement of “Please Give Me Wings” (the Noguchi version, “I Would Give You Anything”) has a similar clap-along feeling to “Komm, Susser Tod” from EoE (and also has a similar tone of returning to nothing as a result of 3rd Impact).

EDIT:

Detailed information has been given from the Min na no Eva Fan blog.

First off, it mentions the June issue of Newtype has an Interview with Maaya Sakamoto (Mari) and Tsurumaki.

The new cuts according to the blog are as follows:

    *Eva-02 is shown transported after its first-battle.
    *Kaji arrives in Japan, seemingly at a train station. Shinji and the boys meet him there.
    *Misato has free time, sitting at headquarters. The activation test is when she receives Asuka’s “What a shame!”.
    *Aida-kun is called out in the classroom.
    *In the Eva 2.22 PV and Eva-Extra 06, Eva-03 is shown being transported. It passes through a thundercloud.
    *Eva-03′s entry plug is shown being collected after the battle.
    *The Eva 2.22 PV showed Mari backflipping in Eva-02. The 10th Angel’s attack is increased from there on.

What’s bizarre is nothing was mentioned about the 3 pilots synch test on the Mina no Eva blog, which also seems to imply Asuka’s new line is during the talk with Misato instead of the synchro test… I suppose we’ll just have to wait until the film is out to see how things really are.

(Warning: This post may have spoilers!)

“I Would Give You Anything” is an English adaption of the song Tsubasa o Kudasai (Please give Me Wings). (“I Would Give You Anything” can be heard in place of Tsubasa o Kudasai as one of the extra features of the 2.22 DVD/Blu-Ray Disc).

Eva-Extra 07 has also been announced to be released on 5/26/2010, the same day that 2.22 is out in Japan.

(Warning: Possible Spoilers!)

Some of the new additions to the DVD/Blu-Ray include Asuka having a new line (possibly more, but only one has been pointed out so far), the Eva-03 preparation and battle being more drawn out, as well as the battle with Mari and Eva-02 being updated in terms of quality.

The Tokyo International Anime Fair included information on the bonus content for the DVD/Blu-Ray release, which includes:

Rebuild of EVANGELION：2.02
Omit Scene (C-0188A～C-0201、 C-0711～C-0720、C-0740～C-0745、 C-0821～C-0823)
“I Would Give You Anything” Scene NOGUCHI ver.
2.0 Trailers/TV Spots/Advance Notices
AR Script (2.22 Version)

so far it sounds pretty similar to the 1.11 release, it seems like “Omit Scene” is a new feature.

Also worth noticing is there’s an upcoming a promotional video clip featuring the piece “Please Give Me Wings” from the climatic scene of the film, but it’s not publicly released yet. It will probably be shown at Tokyo International Anime Fair. More information about such will be posted when it’s available.
