TLDR: I noticed some big changes from the original series that people aren't mentioning and started questioning if it was really a remake or not.

This discussion contains spoilers: During the movie I noticed some changes that completely change the the original, for example Misato knows about Lilith in the NERV complex from the beginning and the sea is red, so I came here to see other people's opinions on it and, from what I saw, no one has talked about it so I just wanted to create this topic to ask, is this really a remake because from what I can tell this is a very diferent version of the original work.

Thank you to everyone who answered :)

It’s actually sort of an alternate reality sequel, something like that

It is nota sequel, it is a rebuild. Which basi means it start the same but takes a different route. After this movie is it basically a complete different story.

yeah, only the first movie is a recap. the next three movies are mostly new content, but they're a bit disjointed in my opinion.

i wouldn't go in expecting something as good as/better than the original series+EoE if you loved it like i did. the rebuilds take a very different direction to NGE over the course of the four films. but you might still love it nonetheless.

It’s a sequel. Hard to not say anything that won’t spoil it. But technically it’s a sequel to the series. Just look at the water from EoE and then the movies.

The right mindset when watching an anime is hoping that it will break your top 10

First movie is very similar to the original series. Not sure to which episode but I believe it’s til episode 6 or 7. After this movie in 2.0 and onwards it’s a completely different story with most of the same characters.
