In preparation for the release of the new Evangelion movie, the umpteenth remastered version of the franchise has been released, and the increase in quality is being hailed by fans as a real leap forward.
The remaster (or perhaps remake) of the last Eva film, Evangelion 1.01 You Are (Not) Alone, is entitled Rebuild of Evangelion: 1.11 You Are Not Alone Digital Master Version.
A comparison between the two versions highlights the differences (remastered placed first):
The latest remastering techniques are said to have been employed to aid in this impressive increase in visual quality, and this is not all: there are also said to 99 revised scenes, and 36 additional ones. The soundtrack has also been upgraded to the latest standard, now coming in Dolby TrueHD 6.1.
Evangelion 1.11 is available now in both Blu-ray and DVD versions.
The next film is not far off either:
Casey Mongillo is trash. I switched over to the Japanese dub.
f♥♥k this is epic O___O
must have a copy XD
Can’t wait for FUNi release, esp. if they release a BluRay version as well.
it seriously pissed me off how terrible the dvd quality was. this new blu-ray looks nice.
SO we will be seeing Rei is life like rendering?

Huh. Compared to the box design from early April, it looks like they toned down the rainbows. Maybe they heard me joking about it. 😐
