Eva Influence Thread
Evangelion will turn 30 years old in two months, to get a hype train rolling along we look back on Eva clones, references, homages, and everything in between in mecha and tokusatsu.

The only thing positive about Misato is the breathalyzer test.

The armor bits seemed kinda useless but I guess they were to mimic rebuild 2's impact unit 1 nonsense

I really like Brain Powerd.
I don't know if Xenogears actually was influenced by eva due to the time it was made or not but if so I really love that game too.

But Shinji acted like a fag in every episode. That makes every episode extra gay when he's included. On that we can agree.

I dunno, to me, the Takemysushi is more White Glint than 01, I think. Especially if you consider the white colors.

so since I'm not a fag and I don't see shinji as a fag does that mean I'm a better judge at it than you, a fag? sounds about right

The Type-00 supposedly is inspired by Detonator Orgun with its big shoulders and arm blades.

I know this isn't really the thread for it but every time I rewatch the series I wind up enjoying Liliputian Hitcher the most, because it's so insidious. The Angel ostensibly appears very early on, as the deterioration affecting protein wall 87 within Central Dogma. And yet nobody goes on alert. It's just a malfunction, a small problem to be fixed by the next day so Gendo won't yell at you.
But then the corrosion spreads. And still nobody raises an alarm. Hello??? How does "corrosion" actively spread? That doesn't make any sense. How could it leave the protein wall and affect other subsystems, including race towards the Pribnow Box, where the autopilot harmonic test is being conducted? The only thing deterioration should affect is protein wall 87. But despite general warning signs, with Rei's simulation body raising up to try and crush the observation box while Rei herself cries out in pain, Ritsuko doesn't run the blood analysis test until the Angel throws up an AT Field.
Fuyutsuki is understandably pissed about the infiltration, but imagine if Iruel hadn't gone full infection and remained masquerading as a small, minor deterioration problem until it found a path that lead to the Magi. Shit would've gone even worse than the way it already did.
