| 4 | The ''Superwomen of Eva'' series is an ongoing {{Fanfic}} project by [[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1615106/Mike313 Mike313]], [[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1439178/OrionPax09 OrionPax09]], and several other authors that [[{{Crossover}} crosses over]] ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'' with either Creator/MarvelComics or Creator/DCComics. Formed in response to a glut of fics [[SuperFic that gave Eva's leading boy, Shinji Ikari, superpowers]], the [=SoE=] stories seek to do the same for the women of Eva -- hence the name. As such, each story is a FusionFic that focuses on one of the female Evangelion characters getting the powers of a known superhero (with [[Fanfic/SuperwomenOfEvaSpirit two]] [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/6977265/1/Superwomen-of-Eva-CODENAME-XJ9 exceptions]]) and can largely be divided into two series based on which universe is being fused. In addition, there are the ''Superwomen Of Eva Alterverse'' and ''Superwomen of EVA Tribute'', which are different enough to deserve separate mentions, and a few other FollowTheLeader false starts which are not listed here. |
| 5 | |
| 6 | * ''Superwomen of Eva'' is mostly written by [=OrionPax09=] and focuses on the ''Evangelion'' girls gaining the powers of [[Franchise/MarvelUniverse Marvel]] superheroes and superheroines (plus the [[Fanfic/SuperwomenOfEvaSpirit two]] [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/6977265/1/Superwomen-of-Eva-CODENAME-XJ9 exceptions]] noted above). As the name suggests, this is the original [=SoE=] series, itself starting with ''Fanfic/SuperwomenOfEvaEmeraldFury''. It contains 14 different stories (and one sequel) by four different authors. |
| 7 | * ''Superwomen of Eva 2'' is mostly written by [=Mike313=] and focuses on the ''Evangelion'' girls gaining the powers of [[Franchise/TheDCU DC]] superheroes and superheroines. It is the second [=SoE=] 'verse to be formed and was originally started by [=Mike313=] with ''Fanfic/SuperwomenOfEva2EmeraldCourage'' on the basis that he simply preferred Creator/DCComics. It has 13 stories, eleven by [=Mike313=] and [[Fanfic/SuperwomenOfEva2HuntersLegacy two]] [[Fanfic/SuperwomenOfEva2SoaringHigh others]] by different authors. |
| 8 | * The ''Superwomen Of Eva Alterverse'' is written by [[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1633969/Archdruid-Sephiroth Archdruid-Sephiroth]] and takes a completely different approach, starting five years after a failed Third Impact and written as a single continuity, consisting of three stories: ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8787847/1/SOE-Alterverse-Duality Duality]]'', ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/9006463/1/SOE-Alterverse-Fringe Fringe]]'', and ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/9524348/1/SOE-Alterverse-Doom Doom]]''. Like the original ''Superwomen of Eva'' series, it is a {{crossover}} with the Franchise/MarvelUniverse. |
| 9 | * ''Superwomen of Eva: Legacies'' is written by [[https://www.fanfiction.net/u/1427214/Cody-MacArthur-Fett Cody Fett]] and [[https://www.fanfiction.net/u/62966/Cyclone Cyclone]]. As the name suggests, every Eva girl ends up being a legacy character to a deceased or retired hero of the DC Universe. It also provides a twist in all of the stories being part of a SharedUniverse, with the events of one story influencing the rest (and various scenes [[TheRashomon revisited through different viewpoints]]). |
| 10 | * ''Superwomen of Eva Tribute'' is helmed by [[https://www.fanfiction.net/u/12514044/Author0fntent Author0fntent]] and, as the name implies, is an ongoing 'tribute' to both the original ''Superwomen of EVA'' and ''Superwomen of EVA 2'', with each entry in the series taking place in tangent variations of both universes of stories (with one exception). Unlike those mostly-disparate stories, but like ''Legacies'', ''Tribute'' posits more interconnectedness among the characters and their stories. The majority of ''Tribute'' is anchored by fan art with minor amounts of prose, and features the addition of more DC and Marvel characters, both well-known and obscure. The major ''Evangelion'' elements of this are the inclusion of other extracanonical female characters from other ''Evangelion'' continuities, namely Nene Matsukaze (from the visual novel ''Neon Genesis Evangelion Gaiden Vol. 2 ~ Feast of Dolls''); Dr. Hitomi Kaga (from the video game ''The Secret of the Evangelion''); Aoi Mogami, Satsuki Ooi, and Kaede Agano (the bridge bunny trio from the video game and manga series ''The Shinji Ikari Raising Project''); and Kotone Suzunami and Hitomi Amagi (from the mobile game ''Evangelion Battlefields''). |
| 11 | |
| 12 | With the exceptions of ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6977265/1/Superwomen-of-Eva-CODENAME-XJ9 Superwomen of Eva: Codename XJ9]]'', ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7882039/1/Superwomen-of-Eva-2-Soaring-High Superwomen of Eva 2: Soaring High]]'', ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/9524348/1/SOE-Alterverse-Doom SOE Alterverse: Doom]]'', the ''Superwomen of Eva Legacies'' series, and ''Superwomen of EVA Tribute'', the stories can be found [[http://www.fanfiction.net/community/Eva-s-Super-Women/62238/ here]], while their trope pages are linked below. Obviously, they are still under construction. |

Partially rewritten by [=OrionPax09=] under the title ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10812350/1/Superwomen-of-Eva-Iron-Resolve Superwomen of Eva: Iron Resolve]]''; The Rei-Fan felt they couldn't finish the story and [=OrionPax09=] took over writing duties. |

''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/4454981/1/Superwomen-of-Eva-The-Truth-Is Superwomen of Eva: The Truth Is...]]'', despite not being a FusionFic like other [=SoE=] stories. |

| 69 | * ''[[https://forums.sufficientvelocity.com/threads/superwomen-of-eva-tribute-the-un-official-handbook-of-whos-who.118376/ Superwomen of Eva Tribute: The (Un)Official Handbook of Who's Who]]'' -- the main 'series' within ''Tribute'', done in the vein of classic 'biography' comics such as ''[[https://dc.fandom.com/wiki/Who%27s_Who:_The_Definitive_Directory_of_the_DC_Universe_Vol_1 Who's Who: The Definitive Directory of the DC Universe]]'' and ''[[ComicBook/{{OfficialHandbookOfTheMarvelUniverse}} The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe]]''. The entries in the series are comprised of fan art (whether done by the author themselves or through pieces commissioned by them) accompanied by prose detailing the character's background and how they fit in the overall ''Superwomen of Eva'' narrative environs (or the tangent thereof). Inspired by the crossovers found in the omakes of both the ''Superwomen of Eva'' and ''Superwomen of Eva 2'' stories, the DC/Marvel characters featured are either visually based on certain characters from ''other'' anime/manga, or are actual characters from other anime/manga given a DC/Marvel character's mantle and/or powerset. |
| 70 | * ''[[Fanfic/SuperwomenOfEvaEarthsMightiestUnited Superwomen of Eva: Earth's Mightiest, United]]'' -- the first full-on long-form story in ''Tribute'', in which the Marvel-based superwomen (along with their allies) band together to deal with the arrival of Galactus and his heralds, eventually leading to them forming the Avengers. Done in tribute to [=OrionPax09's=] announced but never written "Heroes United" story, though with different narrative liberties taken compared to their stories. Features the appearance of characters from other Gainax/Khara anime franchises, such as ''Anime/{{GunBuster}}'s'' Noriko Takaya (as ComicBook/{{Quasar}}), ''[[Anime/{{Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann}} Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann's]]'' Yoko Littner (as ComicBook/{{Domino}}), ''[[Anime/{{FLCL}} FLCL's]]'' Haruko Haruhara (as ComicBook/{{Dazzler}}), and the title heroine of ''[[Anime/{{NadiaTheSecretOfBlueWater}} Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water]]'' (as the new [[Characters/{{SubMariner}} Sub-Mariner]]). |
| 71 | ** Has a one-shot follow-up titled ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/14216920/1/Superwomen-of-EVA-Tribute-All-Joking-Aside Superwomen of Eva Tribute: All Joking Aside]]'', in which Sylene (the daughter of Loki) uses a spell to make herself invisible so she can pull all sorts of pranks on the Avengers. Based on Bill Morrison's story "The Roots of All Evil" from 2002's ''Marvel Double-Shot'' #2. |
| 72 | * ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13569186/1/Superwomen-of-EVA-Tribute-Shades-of-Saturday-Mornings-Past Superwomen of Eva Tribute: Shades of Saturday Mornings Past]]'' -- A script-styled two-shot that puts the superwomen in parodies of the opening title sequences of two classic animated superhero TV shows. Part one spoofs ''[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/WesternAnimation/Superfriends Super Friends]]'', specifically the ''Challenge of the Super Friends'' incarnation; while part two riffs on ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManAndHisAmazingFriends'', with Spider-Woman/Ritsuko standing in for Spider-Man and She-Hulk/Misato and Maya/Ms. Fantastic replacing Iceman and Firestar. |

| 75 | |
| 76 | ---- |
| 77 | !!Tropes that apply to the ''Superwomen of Eva'' series in general include: |
| 78 | |
| 79 | * ActionGirl: Kind of the whole point, by way of AdaptationalBadass. |
| 80 | * AdaptationalBadass: Aside from the titular [[ActionGirl Action Girls]] (which are also an example of this), many characters [[TookALevelInBadass take a level in badass]] before the stories are done. |
| 81 | ** Shinji in some stories, turning into a full-blown BadassNormal. |
| 82 | * AdaptationalMuscles: Several of the superwomen get extra muscularity as part of their power package. Pretty much all of them had no hint of muscularity in canon materials. |
| 83 | * AmazonianBeauty: Many of the superwomen can be considered examples of this, and if it's not emphasized in the story you can sure as heck bet that it'll be emphasized in the {{Fanart}}. (As seen on Website/DeviantArt.) |
| 84 | * ApocalypseCult: The Light of the Divine -- which believes that the Angels are God's messengers and that TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt is God's will -- appears in multiple [=SoE2=] stories, sometimes as part of the background, other times as a StarterVillain. In a number of said entries, it is also revealed that [[spoiler:Gendo Ikari created and secretly funds the cult in order to have a roster of expendable, deniable "soldiers" to assassinate potential threats to "[[AssimilationPlot the Scenario]]".]] |
| 85 | ** The Light of the Divine appears in ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13495606/1/Super-Wackos-of-EVA-NERV-Freaks-Out Super-Wackos of EVA: NERV Freaks Out]]'', their sometimes-status as a StarterVillain satirized in that they're the first foes Freakazoid faces in Tokyo-3, where he prevents them from abducting the NERV-Central pilot corps. An American chapter of the group appears in a later 'episode' of the story when Freakazoid pays his home country a visit, which sees him come to the rescue of the two US-based Evangelion pilots when the Light of the Divine kidnaps them from a mall. |
| 86 | * AscendedExtra: The objective in the stories is to give the female cast of the series ADayInTheLimelight. Some of the members of said cast are only minor characters, and several have only appeared in [[CanonForeigner non]]-[[GodCreatedCanonForeigner canonical]] videogames and manga (and one semi-official TabletopRPG). [[NoExportForYou Most of them only available in Japan]]. [[OCStandIn Also, some have very little available information]] about them...[[RuleOfCool but this hasn't stopped the authors from making them awesome]]. |
| 87 | * AudienceSurrogate: Shinji's main role whenever he appears. |
| 88 | * BattleHarem: In the meta sense. None of the stories feature a harem per se, but the vast majority of [=SoE=] stories have the resident superheroine hooking up with the canon AudienceSurrogate Shinji Ikari. |
| 89 | ** This is pretty ironic when one considers that this torpedoes any chance of the vast majority of superheroines being involved in team-ups that are in-continuity for both stories, one of the main staples of the superhero genre; and has the girl hooking up with the everyman AudienceSurrogate, one of the main staples of the SuperFic genre the stories were meant to be a counterpart to. |
| 90 | * BreastExpansion: [[AuthorAppeal Especially]] if the story is being written by [=OrionPax09=], the superwomen often end up with notably increased bustlines instead of, or in addition to, their AdaptationalMuscles. A particularly notable example is Asuka in ''[[Fanfic/SuperwomenOfEva2LoneHeirOfKrypton Lone Heir of Krypton]]''; she ''is'' partially based on the notoriously well-endowed ''ComicBook/PowerGirl'', after all. |
| 91 | * BroadStrokes: The stories that have other superwomen besides the main character take this approach with events described in the other superwomen's stories. This is necessary due to the incompatible shipping, if for no other reason (see BattleHarem above). |
| 92 | * ButtMonkey: Shinji, in the {{omake}}s. In the stories proper, he sometimes suffers problems and is sometimes a NonActionGuy outside of the [[HumongousMecha Evangelion]], but he ''is'' useful somehow, either by having a BigDamnHeroes moment with said Evangelion or just by being TheHeart. On the {{omake}}, either said BattleHarem [[TrashTheSet thrashes the apartment]] (not to mention the rest of Tokyo-3) competing for his affections, he's [[BlessedWithSuck given crappy powers]], given ''cool'' powers [[YankTheDogsChain for just a couple of seconds]], and generally given hell. [[{{Crossover}} Not even alternate versions of him]] are safe around the superwomen. |
| 93 | * {{Capepunk}}: To make a long story short, being a superhero in Tokyo-3 is a long road full of hardships. |
| 94 | * CityOfAdventure: Tokyo-3 is this in pretty much every story in the series. Depending on the story, it also can have some traces of being a WretchedHive (at least, whenever [[GovernmentConspiracy NERV]] is involved). |
| 95 | * {{Crossover}}: While the inter-franchise crossover element is fairly obvious, there are other crossover elements that also come into play thanks to frequent cameos of the series heroines in each other's stories, with a few exceptions. |
| 96 | ** CharacterOverlap: In addition to the canon characters (obviously), several of the stories have BroadStrokes versions of one or more superwomen from other [=SoE=] stories appear. A couple of {{Original Character}}s have also appeared in multiple [=SoE=] stories, namely Section Two Chief [[LastNameBasis Chiron]] and (less frequently) his right-hand man, [[OnlyOneName Sato]]. |
| 97 | ** Also, some {{omake}} by the authors pit the superwomen against other fanfiction settings they have written. Most typical result: a CurbStompBattle to whoever annoyed the superwomen, and poor Shinji becoming the ButtMonkey [[RunningGag again]]. |
| 98 | ** A RunningGag throughout the {{omake}} of [=OrionPax09=]'s [=SoE=] 'fics is the appearance of [[Manga/RanmaOneHalf Happosai]] in Tokyo-3, up to his typical DirtyOldMan escapades. Being an OldMaster (and also because of the RuleOfFunny), the superwomen have an outrageously hard time dealing with him (even the ones which would severely injure him if not flat-out OneHitKill him). [[spoiler: The 'Omake Interlude' chapter of ''Superwomen of EVA: Earth's Mightiest, United'' offers a potential conclusion to this running gag, when following multiple failed attempts at catching Happosai on the part of the superwomen, She-Hulk/Misato uses the fourth wall-breaking powers that come with the mantle to call in Creator/RumikoTakahashi herself to put a stop to the old man's antics.]] |
| 99 | *** A similar gag also runs throughout various omakes in both [=OrionPax09=]'s and [=Mike313=]'s stories (and in a couple of instances, some of the latter's non-[=SOE=] stories), involving [[Manga/LupinIII Lupin's gang]] trying to pull a job or two in Tokyo-3, only for the superwoman of the story to unexpectedly stumble upon them, much to their chagrin. |
| 100 | ** Supergirl/Asuka, Wonder Girl/Rei, Green Lantern/Misato, and Blue Beetle/Ritsuko 'guest-star' in chapter 36/'Episode 30' of an unrelated fanfic of [=Author0fntent's=], ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13495606/1/Super-Wackos-of-EVA-NERV-Freaks-Out Super-Wackos of EVA: NERV Freaks Out]]''. A crossover between ''Evangelion'' and, of all shows, ''WesternAnimation/{{Freakazoid}}'', this was done on the writer's part as an in-joke over how both ''Freakazoid!'' and DC Comics are owned by Warner Bros. The quartet are brought to the world the story takes place in due to interdimensional portal shenanigans in order to help Freakazoid against his arch-nemesis the Lobe and his minions. Once done, after thanking them, Freakazoid whisper-asks if they're ready to return home to their universe, noting how the author was worried [=Mike313=] would throw a fit. |
| 101 | * DeadFic: Anything by [=OrionPax09=] since his CreatorBreakdown and subsequent retirement in June 2022. |
| 102 | * DistaffCounterpart: Originally formulated as this. |
| 103 | * ExactWords: In the interlude omake of ''Earth's Mightiest, United'', the superwomen become fed up with Happosai terrorizing Tokyo-3 with his [[DirtyOldMan particular brand of sexual harassment]] and, because he has proven implacable to the shows of force of the superheroines, they do the thing they ''know'' will put him in his place: make him meet his maker. [[spoiler:By which they mean, when Happosai gloats that he knows they [[ThouShaltNotKill have a no-kill code]], that they will summon Creator/RumikoTakahashi and have her drag him by the ear (or in this case, powerfully kick him in the rear) back to Nerima.]] |
| 104 | * {{Fanart}}: The series has a lot of art, most of which are done by [[https://www.deviantart.com/orionpax09 OrionPax09]] and [[https://www.deviantart.com/marcoasalazarm marcoasalazarm]], but there is art by others as well. [[spoiler:[[{{Squick}} Including at least two]] [[RuleThirtyFour porn images.]] Seriously.]] |
| 105 | * FanVerse: Most stories are self-contained, but some do cross over with each other (in a BroadStrokes sense, at least). As expected of a comic book universe, [[LetsYouAndHimFight some of those encounters go pretty badly]]. ''Superwomen of Eva Tribute'' embraces more of a fan-verse style with its approach to integrating elements of those same stories. |
| 106 | * FixFic: To the canon ''[[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Evangelion]]'' events. [[EarnYourHappyEnding Even with superpowers, the characters must fight for it]]. |
| 107 | * FusionFic: The premise is fusing comic book characters and ''[[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Evangelion]]'' characters. |
| 108 | * HelpingWouldBeKillStealing: Inverted. The superwomen want to help save the world and so they help destroy the Angels. Asuka, who has built her identity around [[GloryHound proving her worthiness as an Evangelion pilot]], sees their help as kill-stealing and them getting her bacon out of the fire as an UnwantedRescue, and in the tales where she is an antagonist these are outright unforgivable insults. |
| 109 | * LighterAndSofter: Than canon ''[[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Evangelion]]''. |
| 110 | * {{Omake}}: Frequent. |
| 111 | * OriginalCharacter: [[LastNameBasis Chiron]], head of Section Two, shows up in several [=SoE=] stories across both series, sometimes just as a {{Jerkass}} and other times as TheDragon. His right-hand man, [[OnlyOneName Sato]], has appeared in a few as well. (Chiron has also appeared in an unrelated story of [=Mike313's=], ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/4809265/1/Shinji-the-Mighty Shinji the Mighty]]'', a crossover between ''[[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Evangelion]]'' and ''[[Manga/BirdyTheMighty Birdy the Mighty]]''.) |
| 112 | ** Chiron and Sato appear in [=Author0fntent's=] ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13495606/1/Super-Wackos-of-EVA-NERV-Freaks-Out Super-Wackos of EVA: NERV Freaks Out]]'', though in portrayals that are caricatures of their usual selves in the original ''Superwomen of Eva'' and ''Superwomen of Eva 2'' stories. As stated by the author, this version of Chiron's characterization parodies Sheriff Buford T. Justice from ''Film/SmokeyAndTheBandit'', while Sato lampoons Barney Fife from ''Series/TheAndyGriffithShow''. |
| 113 | * OutsideContextProblem: |
| 114 | ** [[invoked]] A RunningGag throughout the stories is [[BigBad NE]][[GovernmentConspiracy RV]] being [[DidNotSeeThatComing blind]]-[[SpannerInTheWorks sided]] by the appearance of the superwoman (or superwomen) in question and [[MagnificentBastard Gendo]] scrambling to find a way to remove them from his beloved [[AssimilationPlot "scenario"]] (at the least creating a "try-to-kill-the-superwomen-on-sight" standing order for his [[{{Mook}} subor]][[UnwittingPawn dinates]] to follow). [[JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope How far he'll go]] [[MoralEventHorizon to ensure their destruction]] changes slightly from fic to fic, but is usually nasty. [[AvertedTrope Except]] [[CrazyPrepared for]] [[BiggerStick a]] [[OhCrap hand]][[DifficultySpike ful]] [[WhamEpisode of]] [[SortingAlgorithmOfEvil fics]], [[TheManBehindTheMan SEELE]] is also blindsided by the superwomen, and even then, they [[UnderestimatingBadassery underestimate the girls' chances]], and [[HoldingBackThePhlebotinum don't step in at first because they don't want to show their hand to Gendo so early in the game]]. |
| 115 | ** On the same note, various villains that are part of the original mythos of the fused superhero (or the DC/Marvel Universes as a whole) are also this to NERV and/or SEELE, all of a sudden intruding on and disrupting things, and neither of the aforementioned conspiracies being in any way able to do much to stop them, leaving the superwoman of the story to do things herself and making them look like chumps (very much to their ire). |
| 116 | * OutsideGenreFoe: The appearance of honest-to-the-deities InUniverse RealLife superheroes and supervillains from out of the woodwork is a slap in the face of everybody within the cast. Their CharacterDevelopment (or their StartOfDarkness) commences with them wrapping their minds around this concept. |
| 117 | * PatchworkFic: Because of how much stuff there is on the mythos on both the comic book and anime parts of the fusion, this is a given (example: [[Anime/RebuildOfEvangelion Mari "Illustrious" Makinami]] interacting with a timeline mostly based on the TV series). |
| 118 | * [[PoliceAreUseless Section Two Is Useless]]: A recurring theme in several of these stories (the ones where the superwoman in question is a member of NERV) is how incompetent [[TheMenInBlack Section Two]] is (when they aren't {{Professional Killer}}s with a penchant for ColdBloodedTorture, as they tend to be when the titular superwoman ''isn't'' a member of NERV), and how easily the superwoman of the story can slip her Section Two bodyguards, often even without using superpowers. |
| 119 | * RightHandVersusLeftHand: The struggle of SEELE, NERV and the JSSDF to do something about the superwomen (be it kill them for the former or ally themselves for the latter (at least sometimes)) without exposing their hand to the other groups too early (doubly so for SEELE on the handful of fics where it has some countermeasures in place to deal with them) is a running plot point throughout the stories of the series. |
| 120 | * SharedUniverse: The specific mission statement of the ''Legacies'' stories is to be this (many of the other Superwomen stories so far share characters but firmly stand as separate universes because of things like who Shinji ends up with). ''Tribute's'' aim is to be more of this with tangents of the ''Superwomen of Eva'' and ''Superwomen of Eva 2'' narrative environments. |
| 121 | * SillinessSwitch: A great many of the post-chapter {{omake}} are nuts, anything from retelling a scene in a more silly fashion to them [[BreakingTheFourthWall interacting with the author]] ([[RageAgainstTheAuthor sometimes chewing him out]] [[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou for something that happens on the fic]]) to showing a ''Series/MythBusters'' special being filmed on Tokyo-3 to small showcases of [[WhatIf the girls having alternate power sets]]. Some of the most dramatic chapters [[ShooOutTheClowns do not have these omakes]]. |
| 122 | * TheStationsOfTheCanon: [[DependingOnTheWriter Depending on the fic]], [[InSpiteOfANail followed to a 'T']] or blown out of the water (at least on certain details like ''whether or not [[MagnificentBastard Gendo]] is still alive''). |
| 123 | * SuperFic: Superhero mecha pilots! [[AndTheRest (Or support staff...)]] |
| 124 | * VillainWithGoodPublicity: The propensity for the authors to make NERV the BigBad (reserving SEELE for the TheManBehindTheMan role) tends to result in this, what with NERV being an organization created to save the world from the Angels. |
| 125 | * WakeUpGoToSchoolSaveTheWorld: A given, with many of the characters being high-schoolers. Finding ways to prevent [[GovernmentConspiracy NE]][[BigBad RV]] from finding them out, [[TheyWouldCutYouUp and their fears of what NERV could do]] if they ''do'' find them out, are important plot points on several of the stories. |
| 126 | * WolverinePublicity: Examples in each of the series: |
| 127 | ** [=SoE=] has [[Fanfic/SuperwomenOfEvaSpirit Spirit]] showing up in a lot. |
