List of Neon Genesis Evangelion parodies[edit]

Original research, and not good original research. One example: Magical Shopping Arcade Abenobashi is claimed to parody Evangelion because it 'reenacts the famous "running with toast" scene' from Evangelion episode 26. The only reason the "running with toast" scene appeared in episode 26 of Evangelion is because, like just about everything in the sequence where it appears, it is a cliche. -- Antaeus Feldspar 19:40, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete. Far too subjective, especially with something that's had as much influence on anime as Eva; most of these are tributes rather than parodies anyways. -℘yrop (talk) 23:19, Feb 19, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, original essay, fancruft. Megan1967 01:42, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Save, ok, granted that this page may not be considered necessary by some people, but it was not intended to be an essay. I acknowledge that it may have been poorly titled (in fact I realized that myself shortly after creating the article). About lack of good research, given that thorough research on the part of one man would mean examining nearly every anime made in the last decade, which is the whole point of having other people edit and expand what I've started. Also, "the 'running with toast' scene" is the only name I have for that at the present (again, other people can edit this). Now, maybe this is fancruft, and for that I will concede that this should probably be merged with the main Eva page, however, I do believe that some kind of list is needed somewhere (for Eva fans, Literary/Movie/Television critics, and pop-culture students alike) to refer to on matters of parodies and tributes to Evangelion. Sorry, if that was too long, but I did need to explain myself. Sweetfreek 04:28, 24 Feb 2005 (UTC)
