According to this release, NTT docomo began accepting advance booking of 'Evangelion New Theatrical version: NERV Special Specification Mobile (SH - 06 A NERV)' at Docomo Shop nationwide from 10 o'clock on Friday, June 5, 2009 However, as the number of applications exceeding the assumption rushed to the point where the system processing was difficult to continue, it seems that we changed to reservation acceptance by dedicated application form.

And after completing the reservation reception at 15 o'clock on the same day, we counted up the number of reservation applications, which means that we exceeded the reservation limit of 20,000.

In response to this, NTT Docomo says it has raised the reservation limit from 20,000 to 27,500 after consultation with the original author in order to maximally respond to the user's request.

In addition, it is said that 10,000 units sold at mass retailers and general retailers will remain unchanged, so the total sales volume seems to be from 30,000 to 37,500 units.
