"Persona meets Amored Core" holy shit i need it NOW

Really loving the art director aesthetic you got going on as you take us down a history of licensed shitposts and Pachinko games.

11:13 I bet ritsuko has this for her desktop background.😂

Thats alot of Evangelion side projects you covered. I actually purchased the N64 Neon Genesis Evangelion game back in the day and to say the controls are clunky is an understatement. Once you get the hang of it it wasn't so bad. It was a crowd pleaser though, as I remember friends actually being impressed with the presentation of the game, until you handed them a controller. 😂

"Not doing the Super Robot Wars Games" Coward.

“Nobody has a Wonderswan these days”… except Asuka in the rebuild movies

thank you for creating another wonderful video steven! cant get enough of it!

People neeeed to stop asking me about Eva porn & doujins lol 😅

This was so fascinating, thanks for the research and enjoyable watch!

hahahaha domestic abuse kaworu 7:47

Enjoyed this one immensely Stevem - thanks again!

Thank you for absolving us

"Evangelion Train" 3 time Shinkalion crossover, is that you?

It's funny you mention Sound Impact, because that game was the runner up for the Handheld Kusoge of 2011 Wiki's mention that not only does the action on the screen not match the rhythm of the game, but the rewards are not exactly great, including one particular off-model looking Rei that gets a chuckle out of me Also Im surprised you didnt mention the Eva Detective game (Im a big fan of Eva and Friends, I like Mahjong and the interactions with the Gainax character)

amazing video! keep up the good work!

As a Sega kid i always tried finding some eva games but only ran into the n64 one back then : P

I am so glad that you mentioned the stage show! Possibly because it is so new, a lot of people don't seem to know about it (or 2.5D in general) but I found it fascinating. :)

Holy sh!t, persona meets armored core meets 13 sentinels wrapped in Eva :O... NEED!!!!!

20/10 would get in the robot

Dude Sound Impact is so good, played it all through my freshman year of college. Glad I imported it

Hideaki Anno did say after "Thrice Upon a Time" he wanted to see what can be done with Evangelion in the hands of other creators. It was happening all along. Also, in hindsight the "Shave Impact" promotion pretty much gives away the plot of the final Rebuild movie.

Sweet vid and love the cosplay!

Great video man ❤️❤️❤️

this is the content i’ve been waiting for. thank you…father

I would love to see a “ watching every evangelion inspired/ rip off anime”.

Yay good video!

good stuff. kind of want to tackle the manga and ln now.

20:31 i was waiting for the manga spin offs, and the first you present is the one i own ^^ although my copy has "the Iron Maiden 2nd" as second title.. great video 👌

Its mad how streamlined the video schedule on this channel is while maintaining such quality

I really like the original manga, but the 2 things that hold it back for me to like it less than the show, EoE or Rebuilds is how they handle the Kaworu stuff (making Shinji kind of hate him but still trying to have the same character arc) and everything at the end up until the very end feeling like "End of Evangelion at home", the very end is fine though, even if I think it's not as good as EoE or 4th Rebuild

11:55 Oh no, Misato found another teenager! Somebody call CPS!

Thanks for giving some awareness to those "vintage now" computer and video games related to the Evangelion franchise. Along with that post 2010s (question mark) Evengelion Beyond traveling play. Plus that Tamagotchi like Angel care game is how the Digimon franchise should've of origination months before Taichi, Iori and others were given their model sheeted TV anime character designs (sarcasm, but keep the pink coloured poo for the boys. ;) ) Like I image an American Ralph Bakshi would be more proud on how far Hideaki Anno has grown as a person resume wise than that John "Kricfalusi" person, maybe that Nobuhiro Watsuki as well. I like blunt British sarcasm, and keep up the good work.

Love your outfit! I'll never understand how they make pachinko machines work with animation. I wasn't ever going to check these spin-offs but you've convinced me. I may if I feel very bored. Edit: removed that copying thing.

Great video

I wrote on the wikia all about thrse stuff, so is nothing new to me. But it is weird to see someone use it in a video. One fun fact about the java games is that the screenshots that you used, were not screenshots taken from the game but zoomed in images of the anouncement press releases PDF that were archived, and there are so many more java games that weren't mentioned. And it is rare to see someone with good taste that enjoyed ANIMA. It is currently my favorite evangelion work and it would be hard to explain why I like it so much. But to see how an entry plug works and how it is explained in text with something that was ignored in all other series fills me with joy. Yes, Yamashita I want to know more about Armaros, the Towarts and the loops of eden and our moon.

8:12 Thank you for saying this. From the uploads here on RU-vid that I see, most comments are just downright disgusted by Petit Eva. I may not be its biggest fan, but I don't think it's bad as the commenters make it out to be. And the fact that one of the parts was made by the same person who directed _Di Gi Charat_ really cements that it was meant to be that "weird". So to hear you say that you like it is a breathe of fresh air.

I guess I should ask what peoples favourite spin-offs from Evangelion are

YES yes the music video and now this he is ascending he is becoming the STEVE

This video is about very specific areas

I understand it's beyond the scope of this video and it would be a heavy undertaking but I'm kinda sad you didn't touch the super robot wars games as they really play with Eva's story especially SRW MX.

Anima rules I love the Euro-II design

Nicely dressed dude, props to u 👏👌

Here to peak that algorithm bby

I've been waiting for this video for so long, I knew it was the perfect job for you! Too bad you upload only when I'm asleep, I missed the premiere. I have a question regarding the Channel Memberships. Would you rather me get Patreon or channel membership?

It all returns to marketable plushies. We just keep tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down.

ah I was thinking this was about shows inspired by it..

I love you

“Flawless transition with flcl” seems to ignore a lot of the production issues flcl had, like the long time between episode releases, which implies they might have been struggling with digital a little

What are your thoughts on Re-Take?

You are going through Gendo arc

I'm surprised you didn't mention the "Godzilla vs. Evangelion: The Real 4D" ride at Universal Studios Japan 🇯🇵, which is a more fleshed out scenario of Shin Godzilla fighting EVAs, specifically the three main ones piloted by Shinji, Asuka, and Rei. They introduced a Shin version of King Ghidorah called Shin Ghidorah, which they gave away little toy figures of after you finish the ride. Probably at the gift shop for the ride. So, this ride/short film wasn't just Shin Godzilla fighting EVAs, it was also Shin Godzilla fighting Shin Ghidorah, and the EVAs having to team up with Shin Godzilla to stop Shin Ghidorah, though Shin Godzilla ultimately strikes the final blow at the end. I've never been to the ride myself, and the only reason why I know all this is that someone recorded the video of the entire ride and film on phone or camcorder (probably a phone), and posted it on RU-vid. It sounds really cool, and I kind of wish this was ride/short film was expanded further and made into a full feature film.

It would be cool if there was an Isekai Quartet like series for Mecha; including EVA, Gurren Lagann, Gundam, and Code Geass maybe (or another series like Eureka or 86). Considering at least two of these franchises have an incredibly heavy multimedia library (as seen in this video for EVA), that wouldn't feel too out of place for fans. Hell, imagine if they added AOT (definitely a mecha) in a season 2 like IQ2 did for Shield Hero

The doujin Evangelion Re-Take All Ages Version (which removes all the Sex Scenes) is pretty good for a Fanfic imo.

Yo someone resurrect that Katsuragi news bot! I want that foreal.

Fuck yeah.

Ah it's good to see some appreciation for the manga. I'm one of those weirdos that prefers the manga to the show. I have to make a point to read the light novel at some point. But it's cool to see Grant is doing a reading of it.

As for me, the worst spin-off of Evangelion was Darling in the Franxx's. Hello from Russia

If the stage show is half as good as the Death Note Musical, i'm in!

woop woop

what horrors has stevem witnessed

The fact that the Eva-Pachinko manga has about 14 volumes is insane. And the fact that the art quality is decent bamboozles me

Personally I feel Neon Genesis Evangelion 2 on the PS2 is the GOAT Evangelion video game that isn't Sin & Punishment on the N64 and Wii. Also absolutely LOVE Evangelion Anima and wish that was the Rebuild of Evangelion (not sure how it would happen given End of Evangelion, but still....).

Gundamize the eva

Armored Core mentioned 🙌

I understand that it’s a hentai doujinshi, but not even to mention Evangelion: Re-take? There are even version with no hentai.

the misato news one makes sense

3rd girl is my new band name

9:23 That looks like an Elsagate version of Evangelion.

Sound seems a bit odd or low compared to other videos :(

seeing you dressed as gendo made me realize i may have the best kind of daddy issues 😳 (lol sorry, it had to be said 🤣)

We Have an Evangelion 2, But what about a Evangelion 3?

Am I totally buggin or is Campus Apocalypse not covered?

Where did the Meitantei Evangelion go?

Do you think Nadia works into the Evangelion ecosphere?

RahXephon could pass as an Eva spinoff. 😂😅 Eureka 7, too. P.S. I actually haven't seen Eva yet (it's on my watchlist), but I plan to see it, and I've seen enough video essays and clips from it to understand why it's so significant in the history of anime. I just think it's sad that fans so easily dismiss both Rah and Eureka 7 as "reductive" Evas, whereas they also have incredible animation and music and interesting characters, even if their stories aren't perhaps as well crafted as Eva's.

Yeah nothing can beat godzilla x evangelion

Damn so the real plot of evangelion lies in pachingelion, and the anime is really just side media to advertise the real product

there's also a eva hanime.

You should really watch Legend of the Galactic Heroes if you haven't

Why

Dawg, please balance the audio

Great video STEVEMelon, but making your list of good spin offs a review of different hentai doujinshis in increasing weirdness in fetishes order was very crass.

24:23 My God who is she?

RE-TAKE

It's current year and people still mispronounce her name.

blergh

Did you read evangelion genocide?

Nice clothes

comment 4 algo

Eva is truly one of the anime merch franchise ever made...... 😅😅😅😅

I am way too familiar with far too many of these and this is exactly why I don't care for Rebuild 3 and 4. They felt like another cynical spin-off, but looks, it´s "official" now. Kaoru - The Movie, a new 4th girl, in your face fanservice, the apocalyptic setting multiple previous versions end with. Put all that in a blender and RoE is what you get. Warmed up hyper commercial detritus. FF VII´s remake series ended up with the very same issues. Your IP either dies a hero or lives long enough to become a Purple Monkey Dishwasher. The 14 vol pachinko mange was new to me though. Jesus. I would rather spend time with the striptease game.

I don't know if you do requests but, I would feel bad for not trying so... I'd like to suggest The manga and anime BECK MONGOLIAN CHOP SQUAD. I think it would be interesting because of the mangaka, who is also the creator of GORILLA MAN, a gag manga so far away from BECK and was somewhat successful in Japan. The other reason is the production of BECK it seemed like it was well produced, the music were written by musicians for the anime and unlike most animes the brands of the instruments weren't parodies i.e. McDonald's →Wacdonarudo. If not an episode just about BECK. maybe an episode on music animes 課長王子 BLACK HEAVEN, BECK, K-ON, ぼっち・ざ・ろっく！BOCHI THE ROCK I got inspired to write this comment after watching your episode on this and FLCL. THANK YOU FOR GREAT EPISODES! keep it up! 応援しているぜッ！！！
