Yup! Probably because of the added length of the songs (and some of the extra ones that they added.)

When you listen to multiple eva related songs on a daily basis. When the first thought is of Eva when you are congratulating someone. When you're telling people about your friend who just got his LCL.(honestly I meant to say CDL.) :tongue:

When you hear someone say LCD but you think they said LCL.

When you see a group of large geese fly over you and you think "Oh shit it the Harpies". Personally I find this lame even though it happened to me.

When you text your sister on her 14th birthday, telling her she's going to get called to NERV. Which I did...a couple of days ago.

Yeah, at the very least she caught the reference.

^ Funny, I was thinking about dressing my niece up as Rei I for Halloween this year. Now if I could only get her to speak like that, though...that would be perfect.

If you do so (and manage to obtain permission to do what I'm about to ask you to do) post photos. Post ALL the photos.

If I can manage it, you're damned right I will. What self-respecting Eva fan wouldn't? And if not, it's not like there won't be more opportunities: she's only a week from being two right now. Although I don't think I'll be able to manage the contacts, though...

Haha I recently had that experience watching the seventh installment of 'Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn' in a theatre in Shinjuku crammed full of entranced otaku. And it's not like I'd even viewed any of the previous episodes either so I couldn't possibly have been more comprehensively mystified.

Still had a great time and got me a 'Gundam Unicorn' popcorn/drink combo with cardboard Full Frontal eye visor thingie, though.

When you insist that you're married to Rei Ayanami.
Among the people who use the Internet, many are obtuse. Because they are locked in their rooms, they hang on to that vision which is spreading across the world. But this does not go beyond mere ‘data’. Data without analysis [thinking], which makes you think that you know everything. This complacency is nothing but a trap. Moreover, the sense of values that counters this notion is paralyzed by it.

And so we arrive at demagogy. - Hideaki Anno, 1996

No, that's just trolling. I refuse being put into the same mould as a person like this.

Yes, the Wald9 cinema is a marvellous place for every cinematic otaku. Lucky me, there were already tons of speculations online, so I could read up on it later. You just ought to love the Eva-Fandom... I think that I understood less, after I've read all the summaries. :lol:

I'm genuinely sad that I missed all the hilarity of that graveyarded tangent.

When you see a sign for "Evergreen Florist" and do a double-take because you thought it said "Evangelion Florist."

No joke.

When you believe a real Asuka exists somewhere...
"Freude, schöner Götterfunken Tochter aus Elysium, Wir betreten feuertrunken, Himmlische, dein Heiligtum!
Deine Zauber binden wieder Was die Mode streng geteilt; Alle Menschen werden Brüder, Wo dein sanfter Flügel weilt"
