The change is purely a stylistic one, as there is no change in pronunciation and all appearances of the Latin spelling of "Evangelion" remain the same. The film titles, in contrast to the normal katakana spelling of Evangelion ( エヴァンゲリオン, Evangerion), replace the e ( エ) and o ( オ) characters with the obsolete we ( ヱ) character and the infrequently used katakana wo ( ヲ), respectively. The intended Japanese pronunciation of this symbol has not been stated. However, according to an article published by Anime News Network, it is actually the end repeat sign ( 𝄇 or :| |).
In lieu of the traditional classification, the production team has chosen to represent kyū ( 急,, "hurry") with the Roman letter Q, for "quickening." With the premiere of the third film, it was announced that the symbol to be used for the final film would be the musical symbol known as the final barline ( 𝄂 or | |).

Its differences from these episodes include newly designed creatures and new characters, such as Mari Illustrious Makinami. Despite the great similarities, some differences are notable, like the introduction of Lilith and a mysterious apparition of Kaworu on the moon.Įvangelion: 2.0 You Can (Not) Advance continues the story of Evangelion: 1.0 You Are (Not) Alone, and is a much looser retelling or re-imagining of episodes 8 through 19. Rebuild of Evangelion was originally presented as an alternate retelling of the original Neon Genesis Evangelion anime series: the first three movies were intended to be an "alternate retelling" of the series, while the fourth and final film is promised to be an entirely new, alternate ending to the series.Įvangelion: 1.0 You Are (Not) Alone is a nearly line-for-line, shot-for-shot remake of episodes 1-6.
