For those who don't know, Neon Genesis Evangelion was a 1995 mecha anime series with masterpiece OST and contemplating some serious origin questions, leading to two ends – one in the series and an alternate one in the form of a feature-length animation. Needless to say, I loved it, so the news about its reboot made my day.
Anyway, Schick is offering a limited-edition Asuka and Unit 01 razor holder stand set, and Schick Hydro, Schick Quattro, and Schick Protector razors will each come with one of seven different Petit Eva figures on mobile phone straps. The latest figures differ from those previously offered in the campaign. Schick began a countdown for the pair-up in April with Gendō shaving his trademark facial hair.
Evangelion: 3.0 You Can (Not) Redo, the third film in Hideaki Anno (creator of the original series) and Khara's remake of Gainax's Neon Genesis Evangelion anime series, will be directed by himself, Masayuki and Kazuya Tsurumaki.
The movie opens in Japan on October 13th, 2012, and it will star Kouichi Yamadera, Maaya Sakamoto, Youko Miyamura and others, along with Megumi Hayashibara returning for her role of Rei Ayanami, Kotono Mitsuishi for Misato Katsuragi and Megumi Ogata for Shinji Hikari. Btw. did you know that Megumi Hayashibara is one of their famous singers? Awesome voice!
Stay tuned!
