- Bluemage - 02-26-2010 I was more amused by the Big O and Doctor Who references there, not to mention the heavy RahXephon inspiration, but yeah, good to see the classics referenced.

OH SH- "No can brain today. Want cheezeburger." From NGE: Nobody Dies, by Gregg Landsman http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5579457/1/NGE_Nobody_Dies - Ebony - 02-26-2010 Did anyone else notice the strange resemblance between Shalgiel and the Gonarch of Half-Life? Ebony the Black Dragon http://ebony14.livejournal.com "Good night, and may the Good Lord take a Viking to you." - OpMegs - 02-26-2010 There is some resemblance at this point, yeah. Seems to be based off "Clockiel", the unnamed "hi then bye" Angel that Mari bumped off with Prov. Evangelion 05 before both it and 05 vanished in a fireball. The comparison is not misplaced, though. --- "Oh, silver blade, forged in the depths of the beyond. Heed my summons and purge those who stand in my way. Lay waste." - Ebony - 02-26-2010 I have to admit that it was mostly the "Remember to spay or neuter your Angel!" comment by Mana, combined with camwyn's inspired Milliways-RP version of Gordon Freeman (acts_of_gord.livejournal.com) and his opinions of the Gonarch that put it into my mind. http://acts-of-gord.livejournal.com/6933.html Ebony the Black Dragon http://ebony14.livejournal.com "Good night, and may the Good Lord take a Viking to you." - Bob Schroeck - 02-27-2010 Quote:Okayama is where the Masaki shrine is located. And Tenchi's family home.I can't believe I missed that. -- Bob --------- Then the horns kicked in... ...and my shoes began to squeak. - HoagieOfDoom - 02-27-2010 I thought that Okayama sounded familiar. I wasn't sure, though. I mean, Gregg Landsman has thus far proved that he can make something work no matter how outlandish it seems at first, but how the heck would/will he integrate Tenchi Muyo! into the mix? *shrug* Who knows, maybe Jyuraians are Angels. - ordnance11 - 02-27-2010 Quote:Rei! Access the Dirac Armory and finish them off!""NoA shout out out to "The Last Starfighter": "You have been selected by NERV to defend the Earth against Adam and the Angel armada." That would make a good marketing slogan. __________________ Into terror!, Into valour! Charge ahead! No!

Second if it is Tenchi and company, it depends on which of the assorted continuities they are based on. The some of the characters from the OAV are eventually revealed to be on the destroy-and-restore-the-universe level of power. The TV-series versions are more limited, though they can operate on the level of things seen in this story when Washu starts breaking out the advanced and probably illegal in most galaxies tech. In fact, if Washu is a technical adviser to NERV, that would explain a lot. There are also other continuities from books, manga, movies, video games, etc. Which leads to the third question: Are they going to be "as canon" or changed? As a subset of this question, does "Nobody Dies" apply to Tenchi's mother? And yes, I am an hardcore obsessive fanboy when it comes to this particular franchise. ---------- No, I don't believe the world has gone mad.

She was taking levels in Bad-Ass and Awesome before Tenchi was even a twinkle in his Father's eye. In fact, quoting Ryouko from the American dub as Achika was blasting the Big Bad in a way that rivals Nanoha-chan: Quote:Would you look at that!? That's Tenchi's Mother alright!Here's to more Epic Awesome! Cheers! - deadpan29 - 03-03-2010 Quote:Dude, it would be so freakin' awesome to see Achika in action.Again, it depends on which continuity this pulls from. Achika from the TV/Movie continuity is as you said. In the OAV her name was Kiyone and she was prone to actions that made her seem maybe a quarter as crazy as TerrifyingRei. ---------- No, I don't believe the world has gone mad.

The Children are assembled, and it is Rei and Asuka's friend, Horaki, who will lead the proceedings, while he supervises. Like he always does. Aaaaand New Chapter. D for Drakensis You're only young once, but immaturity is forever. - SkyeFire - 03-03-2010 Gendo: "I can do... Normal" Really, that should be an entry in the ROTFL thread.... - Wiregeek - 03-03-2010 Quote:As it turns out, the car was 'Rei-inforced.' That meant it was structurally reinforced and armored to the point where NERV had Unit 00 punt it. If it was not damaged when it landed, it was fine for Rei to drive. Yesssssssss. Quote:"Okay, Asuka, you charge ahead and the demon casts Ground-To-Water. You're drowning.""Air is overrated!" YESSSSSS. "No can brain today. Want cheezeburger."

Nice to see a bit of the old Asuka... and now that she has discovered this aspect of herself, won't she be just the perfect apprentice to Yui? *Evil Grin* - Wiregeek - 03-10-2010 Quote:Heh. Heh heheheh. Oh, what the Hell.Please allow me to introduce myself, [b]Oh, very nice. http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5579457/31/NGE_Nobody_Dies 31 is up! [/b] "No can brain today. Want cheezeburger."

Not much, given my understanding of comments made by the author over on Spacebattles, but a little. It feels nice. =========== =============================================== "V, did you do something foolish?"

Iruel's been trapped in the internet for ages. No wonder he hates the human race. Oh, also, Illustrious Ex Machina. But I have to wonder what Junior's about to do... --- "Oh, silver blade, forged in the depths of the beyond. Heed my summons and purge those who stand in my way.

Iruel's a bastard. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to be too busy huddling over in this corner, squeeing over how Mari's Back. =========== =============================================== "V, did you do something foolish?"
