EVANGELION FAST FOOD SET


Holy crap my life is complete.

I love how there is absolutely nothing Eva related to the meal. Original Eva illustration? A greasy piece of paper with Shinji on it? In the picture it looks like he's being held against his will.

It's a lot better than any fast food place in the states. Just keep in mind that you don't get napkins and those burgers come with a lot of sauce, so you have to use the sleeve to keep from making a mess. I tried picking up one of the Rei figures they were giving away, but they were all taken by the time I got there.

Hmm.....I find this to be very intriguing. I always found Japanese eateries and restaurants in Japan to have better service and better tasting foods overall. Guess i'll need to make a visit to Lotteria if i can next time im in Tokyo to see how good this stuff is? Guess its better than McDonalds or A&W. LOL.

That chicken burger in that pic makes me want to drool. The deep fried chicken meat in the sandwich reminds me of Japan's deep fried don katsu and deep fried oyster.....YUM..... :)

It's Misato that I'm creeped out about, she looks just a bit too happy.

Also, the gravy (?) on that burger looks both delicious and horrible at the same time.

At this point Gainax should just have sex for money.

Also, much as I love gravy, I think I'll stick to Chick Fil A for all my chicken sandwich needs. amazing chicken they have, plus looking at my meal box won't make me wonder how much of Anno's soul he hasn't sold yet.

Don't give them any ideas. Next thing you know, they'll be making entry plug Trojans.

For some reason, I seem to recall seeing a picture of a condom with the Nerv logo on the wrapper.

So are the NERV employees going to be eating Lotteria's food in the 3rd Rebuild movie? ^_^

I wouldn't be surprised if there were Lotteria wrappers sitting around Misato's apartment.

I was trying to forget about it, actually, especially since they call it a chicken sandwich. In my experience, a sandwich is defined by what's in the middle, which would make that a bacon sandwich that uses chicken for the bread.

Just you wait. Sooner or later, Gainax will come-a-sneaking through your window late at night to taint your underwear while you're sleeping. :P

Gainax always works in the cover of darkness.
