Shinji and Warhammer40K/Shout-Out: Difference between revisions

Bpen loves making [[Shout-Out|Shout Outs]] to other works. Here are some of them:

 

 

* Evangelion Fantasy Battles is painfully obvious.

 

* Chapter 10: Touji and Kensuke pointing to the sky and asking Asuka: "WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK WE ARE?!?"

** And of course, many variations by many different characters.

* "Hey! Yamagishi! Listen...! If you can't believe in yourself, then believe in me who... [[Precision F-Strike|fuck it]], I'm not finishing that."

 

* From chapter 19:

{{quote|[[A New Hope|"You're going in that thing?" Asuka said to Mana with exaggerated disbelief. "You're braver than I thought."]]}}

* And combining the above two, we have this from Chapter 42: "And again with the lightning. Who the hell does he think he is? Palpatine?!"

 

* Ritsuko takes refuge in a book she owns with "Don't Panic" printed in large friendly letters on the cover.

* One of Shinji's simpler AT-field tricks creates a "Somebody Else's Problem" field to avoid attention.

* "What's so interesting out there, anyway?" "Mm. Life. The universe. Everything."

 

* Endure. And in enduring grow strong.

* "What can change the nature of a man?"

 

* Then again, Javaal is a silly place.

* "HA! I taunt in your general direction!".

 

* Later chapters contain a large number of references to Sid Meyer's Alpha Centauri as well, and the {{spoiler|zombie plague's}} origins may be relatives of ''[[Stargate SG-1]]'''s Goa'uld.

** Chapter 38 possibly references ''[[Stargate Atlantis]]'': "Is the Trident that so different from the Eva? It at least did not require an activation gene."

 

* Javaal's Temple of Trials, with its giant ants and scorpions.

** The Vaultec Pip Boy Kensuke has in the [[Hot Springs Episode]].

* Chapter 38: "War, war never changes."

 

* [[G Gundam|"My hand is burning! Its shine is calling out for me to defeat you!"]]

* Chapter 24:

** "Souls weighed down by gravity." Contolism, anyone?

 

* "Shinji had the strangest urge to name [the Evangelion transport] a [[Firefly|Hotaru]] carrier. In the end, he decided he wouldn't bless its machine spirit with ''[[Serenity|Gran Serena]]'' until it got itself equipped with a few 'bringer of battlefield serenity' heavy autocannons or N2 mines."

 

* "I know young mister Ikari has a saving people thing..."

* Neither could live while the other survived.

 

* Chapter 27: A pattern of sunken lines appeared across Iruel's body. Lines which then grew bright red, and a similar constant beam shot forth.

** Maya muttered something about preferring the name 'Cortana'. A naked female advisor would have been just too obvious as marketing appeal.

 

* After the MAGI goes down ''yet again'' in Chapter 40, Admiral Yang wonders if giving one computer so much power is a good idea, explicitly comparing the MAGI to Skynet.

** Chapter 42: "No fate but what we make!"

 

* Aside from Sparks and all that, there's a soldier named ''Wulfenbach'', who basically turns [[Shout-Out|Shout Outs]] and [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshading]] [[Up to Eleven]] at the same time:

{{quote|"This is getting ridiculous." he said, completely overlooking again that he should have had to reload -sometime- after shooting burst after burst with his Bolt Pistol. He had however, found a hat along the way. It was a [[Nice Hat]].}}

** Chapter 42: When Ritsuko connects with MAGI, she speaks and acts in a way eerily similar to Castle Heterodyne.

 

* "It is not as if you would go on a ten-year training trip to learn martial arts, criminology, and high technology just to dress up like a bat and punch people in the face."

* Chapter 42: [[The Dark Knight|"Some days he just wanted to see the world]] ''[[The Dark Knight|burn]]''[[The Dark Knight|."]]

 

* Shinji [[Memetic Mutation|is a good boy!]]

* The name for this! IS [[Dynamic Entry|DYNAMIC ENTRY!]]

 

* "We will not [[Combining Mecha|gattai]] the Evas or their pilots. Such thoughts lead inevitably to [[Transformation Sequence|transformation sequences]]."

 

 

 

== [[Comic Books]] ==

* "Going hand to hand against an Angel leads to Bad Things. Green things. Angry green things. Please, Misato-san. [[The Incredible Hulk|You wouldn't like me when I'm angry, Misato-san.]]."

{{quote|''Rip and tear. The Evangelion had huge guts. Blood splattered the ground, the walls, everything nearby.''}}

* While shuffling anyone with psychic potential off to Tokyo-3 as some sort of [[Marvel Civil War|Metahuman Registration Act]] actually works out to our advantage, that doesn't mean we don't need to act with subtlety.

* "...[[Green Lantern|Remember why color of willpower is green]]..." in Chapter 28.

 

 

== [[Film]] ==

* Chapter 41: Shinji remarks on [[House of Leaves|a very strange]] {{color|blue| house}}.

* Chapter 42: [[Ender's Game|"Tell them the enemy's gate is down."]]

* Chapter 5: The Space Marine put down his bolter. [[Ciaphas Cain|"Frak this; for my faith is a shield proof against your blandishments."]]

 

== [[Western Animation]] ==

* Chapter 17: [[South Park|Screw you bastards, I'm going home]].

* [[Looney Tunes|"Spear and magic helmet!"]]

* Kaji refers to Gendo as, "[[G.I. Joe|(cobra) commander]]"[sic].

{{quote|'''Dr. Lader:''' "She can't be... she's just going to completely blast [[Dungeon Bypass|through the walls]]?!" }}

* "What are you looking at, [[Starship Troopers|you apes]]?! [[Gaunt's Ghosts|You want to live forever?!]]"

** Earth's Cradle is a possible lift from ''[[Blue Gender]]'', which had essentially the same concept with the similarly-named "Second Earth". Ditto ''[[Super Robot Wars]]'', which actually called theirs the Earth Cradle.

** Another troper mentioned the Moon Cradle supports the theory of the Earth Cradle being the SRW version. I, [[Rpgingmaster]], a veteran SRW player, can confirm that. The Earth Cradle description is nigh identical to the version given in SRW Original Generation 2 and Alpha Gaiden. The location, belt system, use as a military base\insurance policy for the survival of Mankind is identical. All it's missing is are Sophia Nate (the SRW leader of the Cradle), Egret Fehu (her treacherous XO), Sanger Zonvolt/Wodan Ymir, and the Machinery Children. And if you're going by [[OG 2]] continuity, Aguila Setme, Cuervo Sero and the Boosted Children.
