Neon Genesis Evangelion/Trivia: Difference between revisions

** [[Kotono Mitsuishi|Misato is Sailor Moon]]. Now you can never unhear it. And [[Megumi Ogata|Shinji is Sailor Uranus]]. And [[Yu Yu Hakusho|Kurama]]. Motomu Kiyokawa, Fuyutsuki's dubber, also dubbed [[Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water|Gargoyle]]. As for Megumi Hayashibara... well, she's [[Megumi Hayashibara]]. Alternately, most of the show's English cast were relative unknowns at the time, but have provoked this response for every subsequent dub they've been in.

** Rei in the English dub of ''Rebuild of Evangelion'': [[Baccano!|Ennis]], is that you? Naw, sounds more like a [[The Stoic|stoic]] [[Child Soldier]] [[Gunslinger Girl|abused by a callous, single-minded commander]]. Or maybe a certain extremely beautiful and cute... [[Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu|Boy?!]] Or a [[Disgaea|loli-cious demon]], and also a powerful, [[Paper Fan of Doom|fan-wielding]], [[Playing with Fire|fire-spell casting]] yet [[Yamato Nadeshiko|classy]] [[Persona 4|high school student]]. One of the two.

* [[Lying Creator]]: The amplitude of self-contradictory and at times seemingly absurd statements about the series from [[Hideaki Anno]] has led many to accuse him of this.

* [[No Export for You]]: On the Western market, the series saw its last release on DVD under [[ADV Films]] in 2008, after which the series went out of print due to ADV's financial problems, and while the show saw occasional re-releases in Japan, the opportunities for Western viewers to get their hands on a legitimate copy of the series was steady dwindling, and the outlook became worse when ADV later lost the right to license the series entirely. Subsequently, the complete series was released in a HD version on a Blu-ray boxset in 2016 on the Japanese marked, but despite large interest in the West, the boxset never saw a release there. It was first with [[Netflix]] announcing in November 2018 that they had gained the streaming rights to the HD version of the series on the Western market that the situation was somewhat rectified, and the event also renewed the Western fanbase's hopes that the Blu-ray boxset might also see a release in their part of the world some day.
