Yes, you simply just can’t imagine how delighted I’d be when I heard this piece of news.

Here’s some information excerpted from Mainichi:

Upcoming Neon Genesis Evangelion movie is now set for June 27th release in japan’s cinemas. Part 2 is titled ヱヴァンゲリヲン新劇場版:破 / Evangelion Shingekijoban: Ha, otherwise known as Evangelion: 2.0 You Can (Not) Advance.

Its first movie has grossed over 2 billion yen and sold an impressive 600,000 DVDs since it was released September 2007 and March 2008 respectively.

Part 2 will bring about the long awaited return of Eva pilot Sohryu Asuka Langley , not to mention revealing the identity of the new heroine at long last, as shown in the poster above.

Additional releases of the TV series’ latest digital remaster for DVD and Blu-ray will begin on May 27, starting with episodes 1~6.

Yes, my birthday’s on the 27th of June. Why’d I say “how delighted I’d be” in my first sentence?

Well, it’s because I won’t/couldn’t be in Japan at that very day, unless I’ve been given a free return trip ticket for it. Hmmmmmm…….

Well, one can only hope that the movie will be launched locally in Singapore the same time as the Japan counterparts. So that I can celebrate my birthday without flying past several nations.
