The New Evangelion Series Gets a “Confirmation” Trailer

And I can already hear countless Evangelion fans taking to the internets to discuss and dissect what it means.

I hesitate to even call this a “trailer,” since it’s really just a confirmation of what we already knew to be true: that a new Evangelion series is coming from writer Yokō Tarō (Nier: Automata), directors Kazuya Tsurumaki and Tōko Yatabe, and studios Khara and CloverWorks.

As such, this doesn’t really feature anything other than some cryptic and ominous phrases (e.g., “What we hear is the song of eternal damnation”), some beautiful-if-otherworldly imagery, and some final animation of a particularly demonic-looking Eva, and all of it set to some brooding music. No story details are revealed, but I can already hear countless Evangelion fans taking to the internets to discuss and dissect what it might mean.

In other Evangelion news, two movies — Death and Rebirth and The End of Evangelion — will be screening in American theaters this month for one day only.
