May have been posted earlier (didn't want to go through all 36 pages!) but episode 20 of Eureka Seven has a pretty blatant homage to the sequence in End of Eva when the Eva series faces peel back.

On tonight's South Park, there was a cameo of Misato Katsuragi in the anime scenes.

Yup, Misato's in there.

Other than Invader Zim, this is the only overt Evangelion reference I've seen in Western Animation.

Bonus cameo of Naota from FLCL.

Man this trilogy of eps has been some of the best South Park I've ever seen. Why are Matt and Trey so based?

About time they returned the favor to FLCL, it's only been, what, 12 years?

Is the episode up on South Park Studios yet?

Hm, someone pointed out that the guy on the left in the Misato screencap looks like Gendo. Kind of hard not to see it now that he mentions it.

The guy on the left looks as much Gendo as the girl in red does Misato. She doesn't have the right pendant, he doesn't have the chinstrap.

Woman in the red suit does look awfully like Misato in my opnion, but the guy with the glasses really doesn't look like Gendo.

The chick is definetly Misato. I think guy on left looks like Gendo without beard but it's less clear case.

Wow, I didn't notice Gendo the look-a-like at all! Someone mentioned they saw a Usagi and Mamoru from Sailor Moon. The later, I can see it's just that former seems to only have the "odango" in common and that's it.

I don't think it's a reference to Gendo, it lacks the trademark beard and sunglasses.

I -think- one of the guys has the facial structural of TM in some shots (it's the guy to the right of the CEO). But we should probably wait until we get official word.
