* AssPull: Anti-AT Field weaponry exists, despite it not existing in canon at the time of the fic's writing, and there isn't even a token explanation as to how it came to be.
* BadassDecay: Multiple characters from the NGE side of the crossover, including the Angels, Evangelions, Kaworu, Seele, Gendo (he even pisses his pants) and Asuka, mostly due to the overuse of the CurbStompBattle trope, but not only. MGS characters aren't immune to it either, as the FROGS, who played the role of EliteMooks in the games, get a pitiful RedShirtArmy treatment and are slaughtered by the JDSSF. Despite there being no indication that the JSSDF has any of the advanced equipment that made the FROGS tough enemies. [[spoiler: Subverted partially at the end with Asuka.]]
* JerkassWoobie: Asuka, and Shinji. Hard to tell which of them of more jerkass (although with Shinji, it's largely [[UnintentionallyUnsympathetic unintentional]]), but Asuka ends up as more of a woobie, seeing how she ends up, and how she is treated by others. See RonTheDeathEater, and YankTheDogsChain on the main page, for details.
* RonTheDeathEater: Quite visibly attempted with Asuka, who has [[{{Flanderisation}} her canon flaws incredibly exagerated]]. Although how horribly she is abused by pretty much everyone, and her horrible final fate (see YankTheDogsChain on the main page), makes her UnintentionallySympathetic. Gendo himself definitely qualifies though, even if he wasn't a good guy in the anime. All of his positive traits are gone, and even his love towards Yui, is changed into a mere obsession.
* UnintentionallyUnsympathetic: Shinji. We're meant to feel bad for him because of all the crap he went through and being depressed to the point where he nearly murdered his classmates. However, he's such a {{Jerkass}} who lashes out at pretty much the entire Evangelion cast so frequently, regardless of whether they deserve it or not, that it's hard to take his side.
