- A line of dialogue was added in the English version near the end of the film, during a shot showing a soldier firing a flamethrower into a room. Between the two bursts of flame, a soldier's voice can be heard saying "Hit 'em again!"
- For the Netflix release of this film, it was re-edited and re-titled to Evangelion: Death (True)². This version of the film only runs for 1 hour and 9 minutes, with significant cuts made to the film.
- A third edition of "Death and Rebirth" exists. This version is "Death [True] 2". This version of the film was released in "Revival Of Evangelion" and Netflix, and eliminates the "Rebirth" segment and re-edits the film slightly. This version also runs 68 minutes and seems to be based on "Death [True]" as it eliminated the same scenes that were cut from "Death [True]" and has the added 30 second of Unit 01 holding Kaworu. The differences are: -After Adam appears on the overturned camera a flash appears on the screen before the thermal explosion over the surface of Antarctica. The flash is only in "Death [True] 2". -The scene of Shinji standing on the train platform smiling at Misato is redrawn in "Death [True] 2". -The two shots of Asuka and Shinji on the deck of the ship are missing in "Death [True] 2". "Death [True] 2" follows the "Death [True]" order of scenes for the ships exploding. -In "Death [True] 2" we do not hear Asuka crying when Rei enters the room during one of the string quartet intermissions. -A close up of the hanging doll's face is seen in "Death [True] 2" compared to the far away shot of the doll in "Death and Rebirth". -The spiral of clouds after Rei and Unit 00 throw the Lance of Longinus into the clouds is different in both versions. -In "Death [True] 2" after Maya gags we see a piece of the Angel and then Unit 01 coming down and eating it. In "Death and Rebirth" after we see Maya we only see Unit 01 eating the Angel. -In "Death [True] 2" instead of a closeup of Adam's embryo we see a shot of Adam in Commander Ikaris hand as he and Kaji look at Adam's embryo. -The Directors Cut scene of Asuka in the bathroom and her mental violation by the Angel is omitted in "Death [True] 2". -"Death [True] 2" includes the extra 30 seconds of unit 01 holding Kaworu. Overall there are more differences between "Death and Rebirth" and "Death [True] 2" than between "Death [True]". The two films are slightly different and it's safe to say that "Death [True] 2" is based on "Death [True]" utilizing some of its cuts and additional material.
