2. Introduction to the version of EVA works

Next Chapter

As a new fan who has just entered the pit EVA, I encountered a lot of frustration at the beginning of looking for resources, not that I couldn't find it, but there were many versions on the Internet, and the names were messy, and there were too many garbage interference information, so that I started downloading this work in the second year. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info resources have to go to EVA bar boutique stickers to find more reliable,It's all network disk resources。

Here are the various versions of this work:

(1) TV version

The 1995 cartoon (hereinafter referred to as the TV version) has a total of 26 episodes. Among them, episodes 1~24 are the main plot, and episodes 25 and 26 are due to lack of funds (in fact, it can be seen that there is a lack of money from the beginning of episode 16), and the whole article is a stream of consciousness technique to explain the plot, although it does not deviate from the main idea, but most viewers and fans say that they can't understand and are angry, but this version is still quite difficult to find even in Japan.

"Director's Cut": A total of 26 episodes, the version released in the form of video and "LD" during the period between the premiere of "EVA" on TV and the release of "Evangelion: Death & Rebirth" is collectively referred to as "Director's Cut". This version is probably the earliest version of EVA to land in China. Most of the pirated VCDs in the hands of the predecessors who started to get into "EVA" around 2000 were transcribed from this director's cut. It's just that due to the passage of time, this version has gradually faded into obscurity. In terms of content, the director's cut version is already different from the "95 version" (the revisions are mainly concentrated in chapters 21-24). The complex process of editing EVA began with the Director's Cut.

"03 Edition": A total of 26 episodes (30 episodes), in 2003 to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the "EVA" project, GAINAX released the most widely circulated version in the form of DVD - "03 Edition" (or "03 Renewal Edition"). Compared with the previous version, the "03 version" has been greatly improved in terms of sound quality and picture quality. In terms of content, the reason why there will be 4 more episodes than the "95 version" is because the "03 version" takes into account the content of the previous "95 version" and the director's edited version at the same time, and divides the 21-24 chapters into two versions: "OnAir" and "Video". "OnAir" corresponds to the original "95 version", and the content has not changed, but the picture has been beautified. The "Video Version" corresponds to the Director's Cut Version. However, it should be noted that the content of the "Video Version" is not exactly the same as the Director's Cut version, and there are some scenes that only exist in the Director's Cut Version, which will not be repeated here. In addition, the contents of the 03 version are included in the DVD-BOX.

In addition, it should be noted that the so-called "05 version" circulating on the Internet is not the official version, but the remastered version of the "EVA-FANS" subtitle group in 2005, and its source is DVD-BOX;" EVA Bar" is included in the "03 version" in the video library.

Conclusion: Just go directly to the 2003 TV remake of [EVA-FANS] suppression, and add a director's cut version for the last few episodes.

(2) The two theatrical versions of 1997, "Death and Rebirth" and "Air/Truly For You", also known as the old theatrical version.

The plot of "Death and Rebirth" is almost the same as the plot of the TV version 1~24, which is an important plot review, and there are more interpretations of important clues in it, if you have watched the TV version of 1~24 episodes, this one can be ignored.

"Air/Sincerely for You" is the recognized finale of "EVA" ("The_End_Of_Evangelion", hereinafter referred to as EOE), the plot is connected to the TV version of 24 episodes, it can be considered that Air corresponds to TV25 words, and sincerely corresponds to TV26 episodes for you.

(3) The "EVA Manga Edition" published in 1999, in fact, the "EVA Manga Edition" was published in February 1995, but the publication was discontinued until the fourth issue, and it was republished in 1999, and the creation of the manga was actually started after the EVA animation project was drawn by the character design Yoshiyuki Sadamoto in the animated version. The manga version was serialized before the anime was released, but the concept and planning came later. The creation of the manga is also based on the animation plan.,But it's not just a cartoon of the anime.,It's an adaptation made by Mr. Yoshiyuki Sadamoto according to his own understanding.,The plot、The details are slightly different from the TV version.,But the theme hasn't changed.,And there's a lot more answers from the TV version.,The plot line is clearer.。 The final ending of the manga version is slightly different from the final ending of Air/Truly For You. After reading the TV version of "EVA" and the old theatrical version, I highly recommend watching the manga.

(4) New theatrical version: well-made, cool scenes, a large wave of surroundings are approaching, some people say it is a work of business circle money, and some people say it is a masterpiece of conscience. But because the world view and some styles have changed, it's officially a brand new story, and it can be used as a parallel world of the old version, so don't confuse the settings of the two versions otherwise it will be very confusing, but the graphics are really good, the action scenes are very burning, and new characters appear (True Hippo).

In 2007, "EVA New Theatrical Edition: Preface", also known as EVA 1.0.

In 2009, "EVA New Theatrical Version: Broken" was published, also known as EVA2.0.

In 2012, "EVA New Theatrical Version: Q", also known as EVA 3.0.

Tentatively scheduled to be published in 2018 (or the Year of the Monkey and the month of the horse) "EVA New Theater Version: |▎", also called EVA4.0, this two verticals are said to be repeated characters of the score, and the file name of the pit daddy is dead and the character cannot be used, and the official real egg hurts.

The version number of this file name is also particular:

Prologue - 1.0 (Theatrical Version) - 1.01 (DVD) - 1.11 (DVD & Blue-Ray)

Broken - 2.0 (theatrical version) - 2.22 (DVD and Blue-Ray)

Q - 3.0 (Cinema) - 3.33 (DVD & Blue-Ray)

It's just a name.,Why bother.,Of course everyone has to play the n.nn version.。
