Only for certain restricted combinations, I have observed. Image

Now, here's an odd choice to place together, whatever the intent...

SOMEone has to be a proponent of the slash that no one else dares even think about. (EVA-00/EVA-03, EVA-02/Sachiel, EVA-01/Zeruel, harpy/harpy/harpy/harpy/harpy/harpy/harpy/harpy/harpy, etc.)

Yeah, I've seen that one... I think it's in my "Fanart/WTF" folder.

I don't think that's so much "dares" as "remembers to consider to"; a conceptual blind-spot for those who don't think to transcend the species barrier when picking names out of the hat to slash.

An appropriate categorization - if you think Maya/Asuka is unlikely based on lack of interaction, at least you can imagine them having reason to be in the same room together at the same time, unlike those two.

Of course, if you transcend the series barrier, with a little bit of photoshopping, pretty much anything goes in the way of pairings. (Asuka and Arisgawa Juri, from Revolutionary Girl Utena).

But even after becoming aware of the possibilities, most choose to quickly forget they exist. Image

It's not so much "lack of interaction" as "why???". Slash seems to operate on the principle that any conceivable combination is fair game -- it's quite silly, really.

I've seen weirder things Photoshopped over Rei's head. Image

Well, I did a little work this morning organizing the mess that is my folder of Eva fanart (or stuff that is apparently fanart, anyway), and I figured I may as well share some of it with ya'll... Never know, some of it MIGHT be rare and unusual.

These are just in alphabetic order by filename... Too much thought required to post them in some sort of thematically significant order.

Image

^ I'm a sucker for the super-deformed Angel group shots. Image Is Rei directing that "....." at Armisael?

Image

I still want to know what this is from.

Always liked this pic of ol' Shigeru.

Image

^ I am sure there are plenty of fanboys who envy Pen^2 in this image. Since when could penguins blush? Image

Image
Very nice rendition of Asuka and Rei around 4 or 5 years of age.

Image
It's cute. Nuff said.

Just more SD cuteness. I like Sachi and Sho especially.

This one is for Mr. Tines, too.

Kaworu always looked terribly off-model in those pictures.

Image
Create your own narrative for this one. It's amusing, in any case.


Image
I can't bring myself to really call it "cute"... It's just... weird!

Image
ANOTHER one, just for Mr. Tines. :evil:

Image
Shin-seiki sent this one to me a while back.

Non-sexual n00dity! w00t!

I wonder if Shinji's holding the other end of that chain?

Image

I find something about this image unsettling.

Image
Now, this is just silly.

Image
GAH-haH-HAH!

More to come later...

It almost as if her body is a photo of a kit, and the rest has been painted around it - there is a very plastic lustre about it.

So many of the Asuka/anyone-but-him images are alas either Rei (too predictable), are executed with rather less attention to model, or are not suitable for this forum; and I've not been an obsessive collector. The Arisgawa Juri edit is the only one that was really worth posting.

So here's someone who gets less cheesecake treatment than one might expect...

Well, I guess I will have to let loose my 700+ Asuka collection on all you helpless beings since Reichu isn't holding back.

Probably one of my favorite Asuka fanart.
Image

Such a sweet picture.
Image

Another one of my favorites.

Well, in Asuka's dialog in the lower right, the column with the red kana reads "ATASHI no PANTSU ga", one can hazard a guess...

Asuka Overload! Warning! Red alert... Asuka Overload!

Wow, quite a lot of Asuka images for the moment.

The product of when somone uses Rei's plugsuit as reference to draw Asuka's. Image

I still haven't finished up yet, either!

Ooo, haven't seen most of these Asuka pics before. :saves obsessively:
Yes, I loathe her, but NGE pics are NGE pics. Image

Such a sweet picture.
Image


That's from the card game. I always thought Kyoko looked strangely mannish there. She could just as well be Dr. Katsuragi or something!

Nurse Asuka can operate on me anytime.


Reminds me of tv33's comment when he posted the nurse Rei pic from Ikusei Keikaku, way back.

Child Asuka.
Image


That dog is clearly a Servant of the Undead!

Yes, yes, bring them on. If we keep this up, Mr. Tines will surely weaken.

Image


Shinji looks scary in that one.

Image


Aw, I was gonna post that one! Asuka's basically saying, "Forward ho, baka-Shinji!"

Do I want to know where this is headed? (BTW, Joeshie, can you PM me that doujinshi goldmine you have to sign up for? I forgot to take note last time it came up. Image; )

I REALLY wish I knew what they were saying in this.
Image


I could perhaps attempt a crude translation at some point... Can't make any guarantees, tho.

Image


I'm surprised Shinji isn't begging for his turn. (And something about that baby looks terribly amiss.)

Mr. Tines wrote:But I'm afraid all the above has left me with no option but this Image 500x668


Asuka and Shinji? More like Kaworu after dying his hair and popping some blue contacts in, and some ... random chick.

BTW, you saved me the trouble of posting the Yui pic. Always liked that one.

I bet Shinji wishes she popped out of the LCL looking like this.

Ah, my favorite incarnation of Asuka: The Raving Lunatic.
