Neon Genesis Evangelion
I'm confused here, which isn't hard for me to get sometimes. Can someone explain the differences between NGE: Platinum, NGE: Death & Rebirth, NGE: Genesis Reborn, NGE: Resurrection, and NGE: The End of Evangelion, to each other and that of the original 26 episodes?

IN THE BEGINNING, there was Neon Genesis Evangelion. Lo, and we looked upon it, and saw that it was good. ;p (Your mileage may vary.) Four episodes had additional footage added for the Director's Cut; we recently released them and 25-26 on two new discs. (This is "Genesis Reborn" and "Resurrection", respectively.) After the series was over, and the ending was deemed as bizarre (which it is, though I like it), a new ending was planned as a movie. It took longer to animate than they thought, though, so they ended up releasing it in two parts: first as Death and Rebirth, then as End of Evangelion. They came out in the US at the same time, if I'm not mistaken, but from Manga and not us. Now we're working on the Platinum release, with the remastered video and a new 5.1 mix (and we're also going back through and reworking the subs ;p). |

AvatarADV: I don't know how much you have to do with the Platinum project - but I have to say that your company is doing a wicked job! I just bought a home theatre system and watched one of the episodes - the 5.1 sounded great! Keep up the good work! (My only complaint - I'm too impatient! I can't wait 2 months for the next volume!).

Now that being cheap and economical! At the same time it also provides justification for purchasing the new DVDs. |

AvatarADV, just out of curiousity, would the Platinum release include Death and Rebirth and The End of Evangelion? Would they be in their entirety ( i.e. with the repetitious segments as well )? Would Platinum release be sold straight off as a boxed set or as several DVDs?
Thanks for answering. |

Okay... I'm really confused now. What would be the optimal order to watch them, then? (I've just finished the original series and am confused). Correct me if I'm wrong:
1. Original Series 2. Death and Rebirth 3. End of Eva (movie) 4. Director's Cut 21-26 Thx, folks. |

Avatar, you wouldn't happen to know if the 30 second next episode previews are going to be included as extras, would you? It would be nice to see all of them on volume 5, since it's only going to be three episodes.
Also, you know how those images superimposed over the tanks in the end of (DC) episode 23' are removed in the remastered version? Any chance the unremastered version of that scene with the images intact can be included in the extras of volume 6? As an "alternate ending" or something? Thanks a lot! |
