Line 4:
* [[Adaptation Distillation]]: If you've never seen the original series or didn't like it for being too angsty, you'll probably like Rebuild more due to [[Visual Effects of Awesome]] and much more relateable characters.
* [[And the Fandom Rejoiced]]: The August 2011 teaser for ''3.0'', which ended with the release date of "Autumn 2012". Of course, it was expected to cause this kind of reaction - the only view of ''3.0'' up until then was a little trailer at the end of ''2.0''...which was released in 2009.
** [https://web.archive.org/web/20131214164624/http://smashmybox.co.uk/index.php?_a=category&cat_id=14 Two new] versions of Komm Susser Tod...note that this does not mean [[Suspiciously Specific Denial|they will be featured in the last two movies.]]
* [[Angst? What Angst?]]: Mari fits this trope. The other kids pilot because of various issues they have. As far as we can tell, Mari does it because fighting monsters in a giant robot is ''awesome''.
* [[Ass Pull]]: {{spoiler|Shinji saving Rei and almost ending the world only with sheer willpower}} in the end of ''2.0'' MAY qualify for one of the [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|most awesome]] [[Ass Pull]] in the history of anime. Of course, [[Your Mileage May Vary]], and ''3.0'' and ''4.0'' may be able to explain this.
Line 29:
* [[Hell Is That Noise]]: Ramiel now ''shrieks'' whenever it powers up its energy weapons, only adding to its overall alien freakiness.
* [[Holy Shit Quotient]]: Off the fucking charts, particularly in 2. Pretty much ''everything'' in the fight against Zeruel, from {{spoiler|Unit 2's shiny new Beast Mode}} to Unit 00's attack, to Zeruel lopping off limbs with ridiculous ease... {{spoiler|And then it eats Unit 00, and Unit 01 eats '''him''' turns into a god or something...}}
* [[Hope Spot]]: Kaworu's "I'll make you happy this time Shinji" has quite a few fans believing (well, hoping) that he'll [[Spared
* [[Ho Yay]]:
** In ''Rebuild 1.0'', [[The Stinger|Kaworu awakens]] [[It Makes Sense in Context|on the moon]] to promptly say "I'm looking forward to meeting you, Shinji Ikari." And at the end of 2.0, he says he's gonna make Shinji "happy" this time... oh, lordy.
Line 44:
** Just watch the scene where Rei actually greets her classmates: when Shinji engages her in conversation, she's ''smiling the whole time''. Rei, smiling for a consecutive eleven seconds. Did Third Impact happen while we weren't watching?
** Or to a smaller extent: the ''3.0'' trailer. Rei in her ep26 AU uniform with three little Reis hiding behind her, shyly clutching her arms.
* [[Narm]]: The supposedly cool introduction of [[The Name Is Bond, James Bond|Kaji... Ryoji Kaji]] in ''2.0'' is turned into a hysterical laugh-fest when his [[Koichi Yamadera|seiyuu]] attempts to recite some English lines that are well out of his grasp. The effect is only compounded by the "What the hell?" face made by the person whom Kaji addresses, leaving one with the lingering suspicion that this was intentional on the creators' part.
** Parts of the soundtrack border on this due to rather odd English lyrics.
** The happy music and Shinji's screaming {{spoiler|when he tries to save Rei,}} will either scare you to death or send you into a laughing fit.
