Just curious. What with it being May 4th & seemingly 'Star Wars Day' - May the Fourth Be With You - is there a day the fans have designated as Evangelion Day? Or Eva Day? If there isn't I think it's time to fix that.

I would go with either September 13th, which is the day of Second Impact, or October 4th, which is the day the show began its original airing in Japan.

Second Impact as Eva Day. 2 days before my birthday. Excellent! :devil:

I thought Japan did have an Eva Day or Angel Day, but I'd have to do some research to find out what.

Old post:

Angel's Day (シトの日) results in April 10th this year, because that's the day the Kaworu 2015 Photobook went on sale :lol: http://kai-you.net/article/13717

Can't find anything about Eva Day, though. I'm sure late 2015 (even August, etc) will give us something for that!

Here we go:


is June 22nd 2015 when Episode 1 is supposed to take place, or something? Or is this just an Internet day thing?

Yeah, it's supposedly when the first episode takes place.

In which case, watch out; I may be attacking a city or two today. :devil:

I'd totally forgotten this was the year, and the day.

2015 seemed a looong way off when I first watched this show. Never thought I'd see it.

Sachiel attacked Tokyo-3, and Evangelion Unit 01 sortied for the first time.

Where I am, there's a beautiful, unique sunset where the combination of the setting sun and the huge cloud mass overheard cast a golden glow on everything, fading deeper to orange and then red as it makes its hidden descent.

Happy Angel Attack Day, everyone!

See, I really wonder where that June 22nd date comes from. Because I've been going off of this rather in-depth timeline, which puts the date of the first episode as July 9th. This timeline appears to be a laborious extrapolation based on the calendar seen in episode 9, so I'm inclined to believe it more. Especially since I've yet to find the source for this June 22nd date.

Forum user Sephizim, here to ruin everyone's fun!

Edit: the same tumblr user also explains why the June 22nd date doesn't work with the dates seen explicitly in the show here.
