It's implied that all life on Earth was reverted back to the primordial soup, but the good news is that it's also implied that if a lifeform with a consciousness decides to leave the LCL hivemind, they can get their physical form back.

Several Nerv soldiers are stabbed to death by Military. Shinji and Asuka’s EVA’s are stabbed by giant spears. Since the Eva’s are connected to their nerves, they feel the pain of being stabbed in their actual body, which includes in the eye.

It's complicated. If you're not familiar with the NGE series it might be hard to notice, but Gendo Ikari, who's married to EVA 01(prior to her becoming an EVA), did have an affair with Ritsuko's mom(whose emotions and thoughts the Magi had uploaded onto them), and after Ritsuko's mom died Gendo had an affair with Ritsuko. It's implied that the reason why Kaspar betrayed Ritsuko when she tried to stop Gendo is because Kaspar still loves Gendo. So technically there's a brief mention of Gendo's unfaithfulness, but unlikely to be triggering.

Asuka is put in an Eva and hidden underwater in the lake to try and hide both of them from the military. It doesn’t work for long at all and they just fire missiles into the lake to try and kill her. Also at the end, Shinji falls into the lake and sinks pretty far down but resurfaces fine.

The entire movie revolves around existentialism and characters having a crisis over it. The second half of the film particular, is basically nothing but existential events. The film itself is also a direct criticism of escapism and the audience who used the series to escape their own problems in life.

Extreme levels of carnage throughout the film. These scenes include an EVA being hideously ripped apart and cannibalized, as the pilot reacts in agony. A massive character with a rather human appearance is decapitated, causing there to be a literal ocean of blood. An EVA gorily tears apart various other EVAs, at one point bathing in one's blood. Various scientists die in bloody ways, mostly from being shot or stabbed.
