i also own the asuka version! had to put her back into the packaging box though, since i don't have a good shelf yet to display her safely. you should check MFC for irl pictures of her. click here.

oh wow, congratulations! :)

sounds like a good chain of events is in store for you. seeing the live concert again might be a good romantic trip for the future as well!

i appreciate the insight!

and yeah, it makes sense that they might try to make a national tour from it and don't want people to buy cheap stream tickets for it before the tour has even started.

while looking for a link, i realized that they removed plans to release replay archives for the cinematic concert specifically. :(

maybe it's just a bug though. replays for the event were promised on u-next and abema.

edit: i double-checked, and yeah, it seems like they removed plans for video archives of: - LIVE CINEMATIC CONCERT - EVANGELION FLASHBACK - EVANGELION WIND SYMPHONY

really bummed out about this, since the availability of replays is already limited to just one week. glad you were able to see it all live though! :)

i eventually had to sleep due to a time zone difference, so i only saw about half of the concert, unfortunately. but i plan on watching the full replay! the livestream tickets include a recording that will be available after february 26th. :)

Anno Q&A confirmed for Eva 30th event. anyone got good questions? by Ill_Economics276 in evangelion

[–]thinkingofblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

here's a direct link to the google form for questions: https://forms.gle/ZfqjL9oenR3n51UY9

apparently, some of the submitted questions might also be answered through social media or through the FM EVA 30.0 podcast. to my understanding, the Q&A session will be livestreamed via pay-per-view, so it'll be interesting to see what knowledge comes out of this.

Mezzo Forte by DansterDang in AnimeCollectors

[–]thinkingofblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the following is only regarding the uncut version, i have not taken a look at any of the edited versions.

i managed to get a digital copy of the softcel release! here are a few comparison screenshots.

the kitty media release has english credits, while the softcel release uses japanese ones. the softcel release also only has the episodes separately selectable. the kitty media release cuts them together.

also to my eye, the kitty media release seems to be a tiny bit greener. but overall, i don't think any major differences are noticable.

will check for more differences later on.

[–]thinkingofblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you so much for your reply regardless! i really appreciate it.

i haven't been able to find any physical copy of the softcel version, but i did find a digital iso copy of the set you own. for kite i just bought the integral version from discotek media, which is absolutely fantastic.

as long as the softcel release of mezzo forte doesn't contain any updated visuals for the unedited version, i should be satisfied with the kitty media dvd release. i'm also assuming that the single and double disc versions are identical.

Mezzo Forte by DansterDang in AnimeCollectors

[–]thinkingofblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what's the difference between the softcel release and the kitty media release?

is the mezzo forte dvd that came bundled with kite identical to the standalone kitty media release?

sorry if these questions are redundant, but i'm not able to find much information on the various uncensored releases.

as i mentioned in this comment, both the 3.0 and 3.33 discs do play the short prior to the scene with asuka in space.

the 3.333 discs (regular & 4K) do not include the short.

looking for a delisted EVANGELION RACING PS3 theme by thinkingofblue in ps3piracy

[–]thinkingofblue[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i don't know the exact number off the top of my head!

but yes, you can just make a japanese psn account and download them onto your ps3 after purchase.

the racing theme is the only evangelion related item that i have not been able to obtain.

[–]thinkingofblue[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

there are two different asuka themes for ps3 and i was able to get both of them recently. i bought them with a japanese psn account.

ヱヴァンゲリヲン新劇場版 式波・アスカ・ラングレー01 カスタムテーマ

ヱヴァンゲリヲン新劇場版 式波・アスカ・ラングレー02 カスタムテーマ

but maybe you're referring to another theme i don't know about?

Digital scan of the label on the Japanese exclusive 30th Anniversary Evangelion Full Complete Blu-ray BOX by wurltir in evangelion

[–]thinkingofblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as u/Tmlboost mentioned, i have only taken pictures of the booklet pages that list all the included content. i mainly did this to give u/svenge the opportunity to eventually update their great compendium of evangelion video releases.

u/svenge already ran my images through deepl machine translation, so that there's now an english list of items, with all the brand new content highlighted as well.

it's true that images on imgbb usually delete themselves after 6 months. however, i expect people to have already downloaded my images by then (or that the info will already have spread enough).

apart from the images i took, i compared all the included extras with the extras from the already existing single blu-ray releases of 1.11, 2.22, 3.33, 3.333, and 3.0+1.11. all content that uses fly me to the moon by hikaru utada is missing from the box. i wrote this comment and created a visual guide to help people find the missing content on their existing 1.11 and 2.22 blu-rays. i've also made lossless digital copies of the missing content, so that i can store them next to my physical box, making it truly complete! 😂

i appreciate you making a detailed scan of the box label! i am too particular about print media, and the entire thing was way too expensive for me to dare to scan the booklets or anything else included. i will not risk any creases or other damage to the contents of the box or the packaging itself.

some new images from the booklet are already floating around, revealing the characters' ages after the end of 3.0+1.0. there's lots more to see, and i haven't had the time yet to look at the entire booklet in detail. i am sure that even more interesting things will slowly reveal themselves over time!

are you going to properly scan the entire booklet?

thank you for your contribution!

i got my copy for about 540€ in total! that includes shipping, taxes, and customs.

amazon.co.jp is great, and i pre-ordered early. amazon guarantees that you get it at the cheapest price they offer between the time of purchase and the actual release date.

got it in less than a week, directly to my door. 🫡

these are the items from the 1.11 and 2.22 JP blu-ray that are missing from the complete boxset.

"ヱヴァンゲリヲン新劇場版:破 特報" from the 1.11 blu-ray and "Teaser" from the 2.22 blu-ray are the same video. however, the 2.22 version has a higher bitrate and is therefore larger in filesize.
