Cicadas for sure. Just the other day I walking outside, and heard their sound. I also realized that I was dressed like Shinji. Also today I was talking to a friend, and he said the fact I run hypothetical scenarios of me telling my kid in the future, that yes I don't want them to be more successful than me, made him say that that's very Shinji of me. Also this friend of mine is similar to Kaji, in that he'll hit on anything that's got a pulse.

Then you better not visit my home since I live right next to the railroad - train sounds are essential for my daily routine.

"Often I get the feeling that deep down, your little girl is struggling with your embrace of filmfaggotry and your loldeep fixations, and the conflict that arises from such a contradiction is embodied pretty well in Kureha's character. But obviously it's not any sort of internal conflict that makes the analogy work. It's the pigtails." - Merridian
"Oh, Oz, I fear I'm losing my filmfag to the depths of Japanese pop. If only there were more films with Japanese girls in glow-in-the-dark costumes you'd be the David Bordwell of that genre." - Jimbo
"Oz, I think we need to stage an intervention and force you to watch some movies that aren't made in Japan." - Trajan

Child warriors
I apologize for being Mr. Gloomy, but when I hear/read/see journalistic reports about child warriors in some stupid war I sometimes think of Neon Genesis Evangelion and its 14-year-olds. I saw child warriors, a long time ago; or, rather, I saw what was left of them.

At church, the college minister was preaching, and he talked about the difference between unity and instrumentality.

The word Anime, Animation, or anything related...
Asuka's not a bitch, she just denies her innocence in a bitchy way.

I used to do that a lot before I saw the show, afterwards, not so much.
Anyway, If I'm on the bus or trolley and I'm looking out the window I'll have my iPod on shuffle and if a peice of classical music plays I'll be reminded of the imagery on the show. Usually more with Chopin or Satie, which is weird because their musuc wasn't on the show.

Humans can easily explain the cycle of life because they witnessed it, and they can tell it's story,
But no one can explain why a human need to die because the people who witnessed it can't never tell the tale.

Songs. If it didn't predate Eva I'd almost think "Building" by Embrace were a paraphrase of Shinji's confessions to Misato in EoE. "United" by Throbbing Gristle sounds like it could be about Instrumentality. There are tons more too, those are just two I've noticed in the past few weeks.

Things that remind me of Evangelion
Things that remind me of Evangelion are:
* Riding in an elevator
* Riding on an escalator
* Taking a break from work to have a drink
* Meeting co-workers after work to have a drink
* Walking through my neighborhood or the city alone at night
* Laying in my bed alone at night
I think those are the major ones.

It's more the bad habits I developed from EVA that remind me of it daily, like pushing up my sunglasses and the hand tic (yeah, somehow I developed that little annoyance through the years). Oh, and also: crosses, the way I use my PSP like an SDAT, and songs (I try and find EVA references in any song I hear).
...oh, now that's just fuckin' scary.

Clones to the left of me, tsunderes to the right...and here I am, stuck in the middle with Shinji. - how I view my experience with Evangelion
-When it comes to Asuka/Shinji, pre-EoE is like moving Mount Everest and post-EoE is like moving the Olympus Mons. Either way, it's moving a mountain. It's just the size of said mountain.-
