Line 4:
* [[Cash Cow Franchise]]: Let's face it, the volume and variety of merchandise that's been created for ''Evangelion'' is up there with [[Kiss]].
* [[Creator Breakdown]]: So much of it, it actually originated from [[Creator Breakdown]]. Some parts of the manga suggest Sadamoto isn't too happy or wholesome either, though not as "broken" as Anno.
* [[Cross-Dressing Voices]]: For Shinji only in the original Japanese. [[Spike Spencer]] voices him in the English dub.
* [[Defictionalization]]: Operation Yashima, the plan to reroute all of Japan's electricity into a single sniper rifle to take down an Angel, was the name given to a [[Twitter]] campaign to support Tokyo Electric's plan [http://www.animenewsnetwork.cc//news/2011-03-12/evangelion-inspires-real-operation-yashima-after-quake to conserve electricity after the 2011 disasters].
* [[Development Hell]]: It's largely forgotten by now, but ''The End of Evangelion'' was in this for a brief period, which is why so many Japanese viewers who went to see ''Death and Rebirth'' were pissed off at the [[Cut Short|sudden cut-off]] of an ending. There's also the live-action movie (a co-production between [[Studio Gainax|GAINAX]], ADV and [[WETA]]), which has allegedly been "in pre-production" since 2003. ''Rebuild of Evangelion'' also counts; ''2.0'' was delayed a full year after its original release date, and ''3.0''{{'}}s is around three years after ''2.0''{{'}}s. Keep in mind that the tetralogy was supposed to be ''finished'' by now.
