Re: Evangelion condoms????
I looked *VERY* hard for official Eva condoms, but to my vast disappointment, couldn't find any. I think it's the one product Evangelion hasn't expanded its vast merchandising empire to. If you can find em tho (remember: they gotta be officially licensed!) by all means lmk.
If there arent condoms ,shinji runs the risk of die of aids or something
They wouldn’t be condoms, they’d be at fields
YOU WERE RIGHT.
_I WASN'T READY FOR THE BOWLING PINS._
I was about to ask whether this is a thing as well hahaa
They have fist of the north star and gundam condoms that's honestly shocking
You KNOW that there’s a weeb out there who lives like this.
Don't expose us!

That would be me.

The Eva characters are happier in the advertisements than they ever are in the official canon. I’ll just leave that here.
They know they are making and that is what matters.
@Martín Morales it's not even a genuine smile
@Wth happened to my name would make a Lot of Sense actually
Kaworu is alive but Toji doesn't exist

I’m currently visiting family in Japan and I could not escape Evangelion. I didn’t know what it was at first, but then there was the merchandise everywhere. I went to visit some family outside of Tokyo in the mountains where I saw a restaurant covered in Evangelion posters and statues. I was in Shibuya where a van drove by blasting the intro music advertising an Evangelion expo. I took a fucking bullet train to Kyoto where I saw a massive Eva-1 statues from the window. I’m going fucking crazy.

Evangelion is a prime example of how to turn *depression* into *cash*
Mad Lad Along with Tokyo Ghoul and POSSIBLY NieR Automata. Idk what Yoko Taro’s state of mind was when he wrote that story.
vgman94 tokyo ghoul didnt make me depressed but since i watched the series and the end of evangelion a few days ago, im more depressed than before
@@vgman94 Yoko Taro's state of mind is a constant "I wonder how I can give the people who buy my media permanent depression."
@@vgman94 NieR Automata was like Evangelion. Absolutely perfect.
You know what they say: “If you’re good at something, never do it for free”
Now how to sell depression?
a truly evangelion branded electric car should require a power cord to run and only have five minutes of battery

Then the electric car should never run out of fuel
Maria Schleh that would be one very long cord, considering I don’t think the Evas even had few miles long cord in the show.
Oh no! This car goes berserk. It's a motorcycle now!
If I had a dollar for every time Red Bard said "Evangelion" or "Eva" I would have enough money to buy some Officially Licensed Evangelion Merch.
I feel like we should be congratulating Shinji for finally proposing to Kaworu in his favourite eva themed bowling pin shaped outfit.
"Congratulations"
I don’t know know
Congratulations!
I was just waiting to hear them getting married in an official Evangelion church.
I'm pretty sure there is evonne Gillian marriage certificates

Alright, next question:
Can you live entirely off of Garfield merchandise?
Yes, but you can’t work on Mondays.
garfield phone👍
yes
That is not even up for debate.
Garfield is essentially the American equivalent of Evangelion, after all.
i was a little worried that shinjis partner wouldnt share the same enthusiasm abt evangelion merch but when he pulled up in the entire fucking outfit my heart was soothed
I know this is showing off how much merchandise Neon Genesis Evangelion has, but this feels more like a window into to the worlds most obsessed fanboy.
Jamie Does Stuff Fanboys!

Best comment.
I feel like Hideaki Anno would probably feel very sorry for this guy
I like the fact that you decided to stay neutral in the Rei vs Asuka war and just went with Kaoru
Until the last 30 seconds, that is lmao
It’s ironic how an anti-escapism anime turned out to be the subject of a lot of people’s escapism

Netflix: There’s no gay subtext in Evangelion, guys.
Official Merchandise Rings: *. . . are you sure about that*
I can't believe they didn't go on a camping trip with their evangelion tent where they would sleep in their evangelion sleeping bags after a long fun day of fishing with their evangelion lures and eating their evangelion emergency rations
I like that you specified that they only ate the rations and not the fish, since they're not Eva branded.
So this is just the equivalent of star wars merchandising in America.
Yup, you got it.
Yeah pretty much
Yep
Yup, but Star Wars at least have sense, seeing the vision of George Lucas.
In Evangelion... doesn't have any sense.
Asriel Dreemurr The Dark Knight yes it does you just have to watch every 50 minute video you can find and try to piece it together yourself!
I think the funniest part of this is you go into great depth about the Eva bowling attire yet you brush past the Eva apartment like its nothing
Making your apartment EVA-themed is not really that hard. Just stick some NERV posters, "Keep Out" and "WARNING" wall stickers, and paint the Systema Sephiroticum on your ceiling with glow-in-the-dark paint. I wanna know more about that EVA train
@@adrianoarne-ritz249 the eva train is driven using a entry plug type system. The train closed down after the conductors all got ptsd

"Evangelion cologne."

It’s seems they’ve released everything except the damn series on DVD
There've been several different full series DVD releases.

Because Yui is alive
The irony is how different the tone of the original series and movies are, to the products displayed
I can’t think of a bigger mismatch between the tone of marketing and tone of the show than EVA
The idea of having merch branded with Rei and Asuka is amazingly ironic.
Rei: "I'm not your doll!"
*can literally buy dozens of different dolls and figures of her*
So you haven’t seen many mecha shows?

Interdimensional merchandise campaigns?
Even in the show Nerv seems to have merchandise
In-Universe, this might actually be a really good marketing campaign. You know how they sell millions of products with a celebrity's face or branding on it? That, but with the literal defenders of humanity who are constantly on the news fighting things in cool robot suits.
i was waiting for shinji to bust out the official evangelion condoms after that date
Same
According to the pinned comment that's the one thing they *don't* have
Or perhaps a Rei or Asuka themed onahole to perch between his thighs
