Crossovers That Should Not Be: Addition Wars
 
I can't recall, has anyone suggested switching Shinji from NGE and Nicholas Seafort from The Seafort Saga (Midshipman's Hope, Challenger's Hope, the books in which you start wondering why the author cruelly sticks "Hope" in the title other than perhaps the hope that it means Nicholas finally slipped on a banana and was run over by a train saving the world from his brain numbing angst. Bitter? Me? Well, yes.)
First off, whoever has suggested it (including me) needs a slap up the back of the head. But with that out of the way...
What does Gendo do when Angst-Boy Shinji is replaced with You-Call-That-Angst-THIS-Is-Angst-Boy Nicholas, whose only dream is to have the chance to die in the line of duty since suicide is a sin and having sinned once already is doomed and unforgivable, so he doesn't dare sin a second time lest he be-- er-- unforgivabler?
What do Nicholas's companions do when he's suddenly a mopey teenager miraculously cured of his angst. "No, really kid. Delusional maybe, depressed perhaps, but this isn't agnst. Your old, woe is me, I can never be forgiven no matter how much good I do? Yeah, that was angst."
Seriously though. Cross them Quantum Leap style such that each side physically sees the same person as before. Suddenly in Neon Genesis Evangelion you have someone who upon learning what is being done will be quite willing to die to stop it (indeed, would probably be grateful if he's killed in the process).
While Nicholas's companions will probably think he's suffered some kind of mental break. "Knew that guilt was too much! We tried to tell him his actions were completely understandable and entirely right given the situation, but no, he has to go and develop a Dissociative Disorder". Assuming the ones who suggest curing it by throwing him back into hands on work win the argument, Shinji suddenly finds himself in a world where not every one around him is a mental cripple and he can actually do some good.
However, despite just saying how it could potentially be interesting, it's a Crossover that Should! Not! Be! Seafort levels of angst are probably enough to start an Impact Event on their own before the story can even start...
(Me? Bitter about spending the time reading the books hoping Nicholas would stop being whiny enough to make Shinji look stable? Like I said above, I have no idea what you mea-- er yes, guilty as charged. The guy should have just ended it with book one and started a new series. That or pulled the angst stick out of Nicholas's... Er. Yeah. Ending post now...)

Will the transhumanist future have catgirls? Does Japan still exist? Well, there is your answer.
