4th & Final Evangelion Anime Film Titled (Updated)
posted on by Lynzee Loveridge
The theatrical pamphlet for Evangelion: 3.0 You Can (Not) Redo (Evangelion Shin Gekijō-ban Q), the third film in Hideaki Anno and Khara's four-part remake of Gainax's Neon Genesis Evangelion series, revealed the title for the next film on Saturday. The fourth and final film is titled Shin Evangelion Gekijō-ban 𝄇 (シン・エヴァンゲリオン劇場版𝄇). The symbol at the end of the title is used in music to denote repetition after reaching the end of a measure.
The first three films' Japanese subtitles are the names for the three classical movements (Jo-Ha-Kyū or Introduction-Exposition-Climax) of traditional Japanese music such as gagaku and Noh.
The final film is slated to open in theaters next year. Evangelion: 3.0 You Can (Not) Redo opened in Japanese theaters on Saturday.
