A trailer, following the credits for Evangelion: 1.0 You Are (Not) Alone, shows the film will feature:

  • A newly-designed Unit 06 and its unnamed pilot fly down from the Moon.
  • Ghostly floating humanoid entities as yet unidentified in the series, with haloes over their heads, along with the words "Adams" and "Lilin+?" flashing between them.
  • Kaji briefly appears.
  • A sequence between Misato and Ritsuko from the battle with Leliel.
  • Asuka will be featured in this part. Scene is from when she fights Zeruel in front of the Geofront in the original series.
  • A sequence featuring Shinji from the battle with Zeruel, suggesting that the film will lead all the way to or past the events of episode 19 of the original series.
  • A sequence featuring Kaworu.
  • A newly introduced female character with brown hair and glasses, staring at cross-shapes in the sky.

[edit] New Female Character

Little conclusive information has been made public regarding the brunette in glasses who made an appearance in the trailer. However the marketers have given one small piece of information in the newly released Nintendo DS game, Puchi Eva (Jp. ぷちえうぁ) Evangelion@Game. In the super-deformed chibi-Evangelion game, you collect prizes by passing levels. The final prize in the game received from the last level is a character picture of a brunette girl with red-framed glasses named マリ(Romanized "Mari"). The description for the item simply reads "Mysterious girl. Maybe we'll meet her at the movie theater."[1]
