Evangelion References and Homages
I bleive this would go here.
I love seeing refernces and things to movies and shows I like, especially Evangelion. Here I'll list some of the ones I noticed.
Please add your own!
Invader Zim: Episode "Hamstergeddon": Possible reference or maybe a joke (see commentary, someone asked about a homage to Eva he thought was in the episode). When Ultra Pepe is fighting he does a very anime style charge (which is mocked in commentary as "taking from Evangelion")
Episode "Megadoomer": Vasquez remarks that a robot with a plug idea is very Eva-esque (but of course Dirge who came up with it never heard of it before :P)
Sgt. Frog Vol 1: (pg. 27) Mother is portrayed as Unit-01
Sgt. Frog Vol 2: (starting pg. 140) Keroro dressed up in "Sound Only" costume (pg. 92) Keroro mocking Giroro much as Gendo would mock Shinji, while standing above a frog looking Unit-01 (pg. 132) Student acting like, or at least looking like, Gendo (I'm not sure if this is intentional Eva joke or not)
Mystique Issue 4: (which I bought just because of this <:P) New Sentinel design looks awefully familiar...
FLCL: Takkun's dad, Kamon, wrote a book on the "Mysteries of Eva"
Pointed out by Dave
Super Robot Wars Scramble Commander + SRW Alpha: Features mechas, angels, and characters from Eva
Pointed out by NeonZ
Magical Shopping Arcade Abenobashi: "Pyramid of Anime" has Eva on third (or second) shelf
Sasshi's sister dresses up like Rei Ayanami in the wacky sequence(As I like to call it) in episode 26.
Arumi does an episode preview and she does an impression of Misato
Pointed out by RubberSoul
Episode 3 has Eva battle music
Pointed out by KaworuNagisa17
Comic Party: Ep. 2 of Vol. 2 there is a parody on Misato's fanservice gimmick

Gah I've been bad at updating this, still have some I've found and can't recall for the life of me.

If you're refferring to the DVDs.... and they have commentary, I'm so there. Invader Zim is by far one of the greatest cartoons ever made. But that's a different topic of discussion.
The episode where Zim got the robot exo-suit that could turn invisible kinda reminded me of Eva, in that they had to keep it plugged into an electrical socket to keep it powered and invisible.

Yeah, it's an awesome show, and commentary has main man Vasquez himself.
Hah, I never thought of that. When I saw that episode I didn't see Eva yet, so the thought didn't occur to me. Maybe that's what the commentary guy ws reffering too? He brought up the question about an Eva refference, but I think he was joking when that particular scene I mentioned came up.

Also of note are references and homages Eva makes itself. One I particularly like is the final line of the series, "And to the Children Congradulations!" which is a homage of "Happy Birthday Dear Children" from Ideon: Be Invoked, my second favorite anime movie after End of Eva.

If you go here and scroll down, you'll find a list of the origins of all the characters names.
Also, in this

References that me and my sister found to Evangelion, was on FLCL, also known as Furi Kuri. They used to play that show on cartoon network. To me and my sister we found a lot of Evangelion references, it seems to be that if they were hintting at the last episode about second impacted, or leading up to second impacted. I don't know, if its just me and my sister.

Was it here that somebody said that in Final Fantasy VII in the Golden Saucers Showroom there is a D-Type Equipment thingie? If it was here, then I just wish to confirm it. Also in FFVII, Odin's Grunge Lance attack looks very similer to Unit-00 throwing the lance... it even rips through the atmosphere the same way...

What, the dark, depressing atmosphere throughout most of the game? Wow, I didn't know Evangelion invented that, especially when I saw it so present in shows like Ideon from the early 80's. :roll:
Atmosphere was ment to be taken litterly there... I ment the sky. When Unit-00 throws the lance, it tears apart the clouds over Tokyo-3, When you Summon Odin, he is accompined by a giant rainstorm. Then he throws the Grunge Lance it it rips apart the sky in the same fashion as the Lance of Longinious. I guess I should clarify things a bit more, eh?

I knew what you ment by atmosphere right away.
Yea and God said to Abraham, "You will kill your son Issac." And Abraham said, "I can't hear you, you'll have to speak into the microphone." And God said, "Oh I'm sorry, Is this better? Check, check, check... Jerry, pull the high end out, I'm still getting some hiss back here."

Magical Shopping Arcade Abenobashi has quite a few Evangelion references especially in episode three.
-Sasshi's sister dresses up like the Rei Ayanami in the wacky sequence(As I like to call it) in episode 26.
-Later on in the series, Arumi does an episode preview and she does a 'spot on' impression of Misato.
So far from what I've seen of Comic Party, there's only one Eva reference. In the episode preview for the second episode of the second DVD, there's a parody of Misato's 'fan service' um... (For lack of better word) 'thingy'.

Doh! I thought you meant 'FF7 rips off the atmosphere of Eva the same way'. Yes, you're right about that.
