When you start using terms like GNR and Tang in casual conversation not even related to Evangelion.

Whenever you see someone's hands clasped together maniacally, you always assume it's the Gendopose.

When you go to an anime club food stand at an International Food Fair and ask them if they have LCL only to be stared at, and then have to explain that it's an Evangelion joke, and the reply to that is: "Ugh, I hate Shinji".

Can't remember the last time I used the word "Tang" that wasn't in reference to Eva. But it isn't the immediate mental association I have with GNR.

Whenever you see someone's hands clasped together maniacally, you always assume it's the Gendopose.


I'm guilty of this, too...not to mention personally making that pose almost any time I'm sitting still and bored (only one person I know recognizes it).

... when you watch "Sym-bionic Titan" (shown on Cartoon Network),
SPOILER: Show
and you noticed the robot used a lance to get rid of monster. This was their newest episode that aired on October 22, 2010, "Shaman of Fear"

You know you are obsessed with Eva when you are browsing the iTunes app store from boredom, find a MAGI app that is a perfect replica of Ritsuko's from EoE, you run out to the nearest pawnshop and spend 130$ on an iPod touch, and then 1$ on this app, even though you could pirate it, and then jailbreak it and install the most badass eva theme ever. Then proceed to buy every app eva related, and rage when you can"t use the 3D modeling app because it needs a camera, and considering going to buy a 4th gen just so you can use it.

I saw that episode. The first thing that came to my mind? "Asuka! That's her sonic glaive!" The second thing that came to mind? "Holy smokes, it's a Hoplite!"

1. When you've commissioned your blacksmith friend to make a human-scale replica of the Lance of Longinus out of steel.

2. When you run into your brother's bible study (Lolchristian) group when they're talking about angels, and yell "BLUE PATTERN DETECTED!"

3. When you see a reference to Tabris and cry for Kaworu.

4. When you see a fish head and cry for Asuka.

5. When you look at Geordi LaForge and think of Keel Lorenz.

6. When you have to do a thesis for a paper, and can't stop writing "CRUELANGELCRUELANGELCRUELANGEL"

I LOVE EVA.

When you have convinced yourself that you're part of the show: when characters talk on screen, you talk back at them, believing you're giving advice to Gendo on how to fight the Angels, to Shinji on gaining confidence, and to Misato how to prevent the Instrumentality. Strangely, no characters pay attention to your words, but it doesn't stop you from continuing it.
