''Aeon Entelechy Evangelion'' is a [[The Remake|2nd edition/sequel/rewrite]] of [[Tropers/Earth Scorpion|Earth Scorpion]]'s ''[[Aeon Natum Engel (Fanfic)|Aeon Natum Engel]]'' because ES [[Mythology Gag|ran out of ink]]... er, felt dissatisfied with the inconsistencies between the earlier and later chapters. As of February 23, 2012, a prologue and eighteen chapters have been published, currently in Book II. Naturally, so far it has turned out just as terrifying as ''[[Aeon Natum Engel (Fanfic)|Aeon Natum Engel]]''.
 
[[Running Gag|If not worse.]]
Line 140:
* [[Dreaming of Things to Come]]: The German student from the 1920's dreams of the times of Aeon War. Maybe.
* [[Easy Logistics]]: Averted in general. It's also the reason why the NEG can't use strategic conventional nukes as mines against Mot again and why Unit-02 won't be in time transferring from Chicago to Europe.
* [[Eldritch Abomination]]: Where to start? With the Harbingers, which are the [[Aeon Natum Engel (Fanfic)|Heralds]] but ''even more'' Lovecraftian? With the fungoid insects of the Migou? With the Deep Ones? {{spoiler|Rei? [[Tropers/Earth Scorpion|Earth Scorpion]]?}}
* [[Electronic Eyes]]:
** Those who serve in the military are offered to replace their organic eyes with artificial ones (or harcontacts, hard permanent contact lenses, for those who refuse) due to things on the battlefield, mostly lasers, that tend to fry the eyeballs just by looking at them.
Line 232:
* [[Les Collaborateurs]]: The Migou "cultists", who work for the Migou out of their own will. They're dangerous because, by and large, they're ''not'' cultists in the Lovecraftian sense. They may be fanatically devoted to the Migou, but within that frame of reference, their actions are fully sane.
* [[Let No Crisis Go to Waste]]: A lot of people use the chaos caused by the Harbingers showing up (and the immediate aftermath) to further their own goals.
* [[Little Hero, Big War]]: As important as the Evangelions and the Harbingers are, the Aeon War doesn't revolve around them.
* [[Lockdown]]: Heavy quarantine on the Budapest-infected locations. Certain [[Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt|specialists]] were sent to deal with it.
* [[Locked Out of the Fight]]: Asuka and Unit-02, locked out of the Mot fight with the very untimely transfer.
Line 252:
** The Tsuchigumo, as befits their [[Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex|heritage]].
** The Recon mecha are described as being borderline [[Powered Armor]].
* [[Minovsky Physics]]: Arcanotech, or as [[Word of God]] said it in the ''[[Nobody Dies (Fanfic)|Nobody Dies]]'' thread, a "Convenient [[Hand Wave]]". That doesn't stop rather in-depth discussion of the physics behind everything in the forum thread, of course.
* [[Mockumentary]]: ''Instructional Lessons For the Youth of Today and Stuff'', the TV show that Misato watches in Chapter 4, is styled like one.
* [[Mobile Maze]]: Implied to be one of the security measures under London-2. Misato still got lost even though it was off.
Line 311:
* [[Point Defenseless]]: Averted. Those laser point-defense systems on the Evangelions are good at their jobs.
* [[Poisoned Weapons]]: Poisoned tiny hair-like carbon-fibre syringes are used {{spoiler|by a Migou agent to assassinate a Marshal}}.
* [[Post Cyber Punk]]: The arcologies, and the New Earth Government in general. Even more so than in ''[[Aeon Natum Engel (Fanfic)|Aeon Natum Engel]]'' with deeper fusion of ''[[Alastair Reynolds|Revelation Space]]'' and ''[[Eclipse Phase]]''.
* [[Power Creep, Power Seep]]: The reason why [[User:Earth Scorpion]] didn't completely replace ''[[Cthulhu Tech]]'' with ''[[Eclipse Phase]]'' is that the latter's elements break a lot of NGE's story pillars. With the [[Brain Uploading|digitizing of the mind]] and [[Body Surf|resleeving]], Shinji and Asuka are completely unnecessary when Gendo could just [[Me's a Crowd|fork]] Rei to fill in the gaps.
* [[Powder Keg Crowd]]: The people at the airport panicked; some fled, some attacked the police. Of course, the fact that [[Eldritch Abomination|Harbinger-3]] was currently attacking might have had something to do with how volatile they were. And the [[State Sec|OIS]] sub-storyline seems to suggest that it was an arranged cover for some other group.
Line 327:
* [[Reality Warping Is Not a Toy]]
* [[Religious and Mythological Theme Naming]]: The Harbinger codenames are based off Canaanite mythology; this might be considered a [[Mythology Gag]], in both senses of the phrase, because the Caananite faith was, like Judaism, a semitic religion.
* [[The Remake]]: of ''[[Aeon Natum Engel (Fanfic)|Aeon Natum Engel]]''.
* [[Right Hand Versus Left Hand]]: Implied with the OSS, better known as Secret Services.
* [[Ritual Magic]]: Imported from ''Cthulhu Tech'', this is the only type of magic humanity can use. Used to {{spoiler|revive Shinji}}.
