*Note: Not trying to be racist*

Discuss: What would happen if
1) Evangelion's pre-series trauma never happened
2) Everything is normal, including the parents
3) There is no such thing as Angels, Seele, Adam, only Evolution
and
4) The characters immigrate to America EDIT: and open a stereotypical Asian store doing dry cleaning or instant Chinese

Just a thought after listening to Rucka Rucka's Ching Chang Chong.

ah, forgot to add that it won't be a show; just the regular universe with the Eva cast stuck in. Forget the show and entertainment.
Besides, it could be a comedy: Nerv Dry Creaning Serwice and Instant Curry-Ramen Shop

Don't really care about 4) but Ikari Shinji Raising Project (ISIK - Ikari Shinji Ikosei Keikaku) fits 2-4 perfectly, with the exception of Angels (which are never as deadly as in the series anyway).

And I love ISIK.
I never thought I would come back to Evangelion after EoE,
But I discovered Re-Take (or it found me?) and
now here I am.

Then what's the point? It would just be real life, which is largely boring anway.

What, you don't think Rei in a loose, baggy shirt doing piles of laundry while Shinji is getting beat up in the back alley by the football team while Asuka is at Cheerleading practice (in a short skirt) and Gendo in a sushi chef outfit choppin' up fish is interesting?
I mean, Yui-sama in a waitress uniform?

I applaud your enthusiasm, but it's not my kind of show. Not because it's "not Eva", It's just not my thing.

As opposed to the dudes who like everything to be lolartistic, I'd actually watch this show if it exists. RL can be entertaining, you just have to make it entertaining.
NGE was a damned good anime
EoE was an anime masterpiece
And Rebuild is nothing short of epic
Long live the EVAs!!

Heh. Kinda riffs off that remark from Ritsuko in Episode 26 that "You can even have fun on a rainy day - it's all about your perspective," etc. etc.

If there comes a conflict in which the "Mad-Cow Disease" decides to outbreak, in which they're the surviving people of the city, I'd watch it. There has to be a physical conflict if you want me to watch. Otherwise, its just another generic anime with psychological frosting on it.

Well, if it was well-written, I could probably get some chuckles out of it. Like I do from ISIK.

If handled in the same way as the Two Salarymen fics (in which Gendo and Fuyutsuki are overworked employees of an animation studio), a limited series could work.

I seem to recall that the Asuka Trial doujins play with something like this. Sort of.
For my post-3I fic, go here.
The law doesn't protect people. People protect the law. -- Akane Tsunemori, Psycho-Pass
People's deaths are to be mourned. The ability to save people should be celebrated. Life itself should be exalted. -- Volken Macmani, Tatakau Shisho: The Book of Bantorra
I hate myself. But maybe I can learn to love myself. Maybe it's okay for me to be here! That's right! I'm me, nothing more, nothing less! I'm me. I want to be me! I want to be here! And it's okay for me to be here! -- Shinji Ikari, Neon Genesis Evangelion
Yes, I know. You thought it would be something about Asuka. You're such idiots.

Hey guys, what would Evangelion be like if you took out the Evangelions, Angels, characters, settings, plot, and just left the cicadas? Wouldn't that be awesome?
