Probably.
In all seriousness I don't think Kyoko can be saved.

In other words sacrifice Rei in the process.

Asuka felt her eyes bug out in shock and grasped reflexively for Shinji's hand. By the strength of his return grip, he was at least equally shocked.
"Rei, what the HELL?!?"
Rei smiled at them, fondly but sadly, as if--
"The means to restore your mothers now lies within my grasp."
Asuka's mind ground to a halt. She was faintly aware of Gendo, still doubled over around his severed wrist, surging partially upright with an expression that might have actually made her feel something other than homicidal contempt for him.
Nagisa spoke for the first time, very softly. "This is an ill-advised plan, Ayanami."
"Scilence, Adamite," Rei said firmly, but sounding almost... friendly? What? There was something wrong here, but Asuka was too saturated to come to grips with it.
"Rei," Shinji quavered, hope-against-hope in his voice. "Are you sure?"
"Yes," Rei replied, smiling beatifically at them both. "It will not take long."
And with that, Rei floated up into the air, towards the impaled form of Lilith. Asuka found herself fighting a growing sense of unease as Rei hung before the ancient Progentitor, almost seeming to... commune... with it, in utter silence. "Nagisa," she started to say, "what did you mea--"
The sound as Rei was taken into Lilith like a fly being swallowed by a toad would haunt Asuka's nightmares forever.
"I meant," Nagisa said soberly as reality began to melt around them, "that her plan, while workable, would carry a high price. Which she intended to take soley upon herself." He turned from his contemplation of Lilith to eye Shinji and Asuka speculatively. "I believed that you would find the exchange... inequitable. But she was determined."

Because doing "A far, far better thing" is something I could easily see Rei convincing herself of, as long as she believed that it would make her loves happy. Her sense of self is (at this point in A&T) probably somewhere on a par with Shirou Emiya's....
 
Why? Why would you be so cruel?

I'm safe if I do the Safety Dance...

Also still can't get over the fact they use 14-year-olds to sell shit like women's underwear. Unless that pic is simply fake. Which I really, really hope is the case here.
You're pure evil, you know that?

Dude, TOO SOON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*tries to hold back laughter*

*fails, and begins to laugh with evil, uproarious gusto*
I hope you're ashamed of yourself, young man/woman/other (delete as appropriate)!
Well, that's all kinds of morbid. Had to be British humour, I guess. :confused:

The Englanderish: "BECAUSE I CAN!"TM



And the only fast food place still around is Taco Bell...

They're real. And I don't think it's the first time GAINAX has licensed NGE for women's delicates.

And everything else under the sun. You'll love the Schick razor promotion that had Gendo shave off his beard and suddenly become happy. o_O



I don't know if this one is advertising fast food or a DVD. Both?.
Lotteria is a fast food chain in Japan. Probably a promotion--980 yen for the Evangelion 2.22 special meal. Misato and Shinji approved. :p
 
I still have nightmares about beardless Gendo. The fact he was laughing didn't help.
 
Well, looks like 3.0 + 1.0 isn't going to be soon. Anno's apology:
"To all the Evangelion fans, I'm really, really keeping you all waiting. I am truly sorry...Evangelion can only be described as my soul. It's a work that chips off parts of me."

"Up until then, after doing the third entry Evangelion: 3.0 You Can (Not) Redo, I thought I wasn't going to make any more. At that time, I went into talks with Toho, and it saved me. I think this is how I'm able to keep making Evangelion. However, since it is a fact that I'm making everyone wait, I deeply apologize for that."

I'll be glad if he puts a sock in it. All this whining only makes me want to slug him.

With the letdown 3 was, I'm definitely not watching 4 without at least the whole board telling me to do so. :rage:

He INTENDED for 3.33 to be the last movie and he still gave it that non-ending?! Damnit, he hasn't changed at all since EoE

That doesn't sound all that likely, considering the preview for 4.0 at the end of the third movie. Whether you're actually going to use the material shown in the trailer or pull another 3.33, it doesn't make any sense to offer any sneak peeks at what's supposed to come if you're not going to make a fourth movie in the first place.
