* CondemnedByHistory: It was one of the most popular ''Eva'' crossovers back in the late 00s, but over the time it became rather obscure, and even despised by fans of both franchises who did not care for the main characters becoming Chaos cultists (or Rei turning into a walking health hazard). The "sequel" tanking any potential this universe might have got and exhausting Academia Nut did not help matters.
* DieForOurShip: It is a subtle example, but [[spoiler:Kaji got assassinated]]. Since it happened in the original series it should not be raising eyebrows... until you realize that [[spoiler:the new Chaos Gods brought Hikari back to life but they did not bring him back. There was no good reason for it, but his permanent demise conveniently freed Misato to become Shinji's harem's third member]].
* DracoInLeatherPants: Double Subverted for the forces of Chaos: At first, they seem positive and useful, making things turn out better for Shinji and co., [[spoiler:until they get royally screwed over.]] The double subversion comes when it turns out [[spoiler:that they've been working for a positive outcome all along]].
* GeniusBonus: The last few paragraphs become a lot funnier once [[spoiler: you've read the preface to any WH 40k novel]].
* HilariousInHindsight:
** [[spoiler:Tzeentch said he ''planned'' to blow Slaanesh up,]] but it would have not stuck. Guess who is gone from ''TabletopGame/WarhammerAgeOfSigmar''?
** With the release of ''Fall of Cadia'', Abaddon does end up blowing up Cadia in lieu of capturing it.
* JerkassWoobie:
** Shinji is an utter asshole, but he keeps getting hurt and losing people he cares for.
** Asuka is rude and unpleasant... because she lost her mother, her father didn't care about her, and NERV treated her as a puppet. Then she met Shinji, who actually cared about her and helped her... and then [[spoiler:she lost him.]] Later she [[spoiler:got him back...]] right before [[spoiler:being murdered.]]
* MoralEventHorizon: If Gendo did not cross it when he made [[spoiler: Hikari die piloting the possessed Unit 03 and Toji a quadriplegic]], he certainly did after we learn that [[spoiler: all of the mothers of the children at Shinji's school are kept in preparation for Eva usage.]]
* NauseaFuel: '''Any''' scene involving Rei's worship of ''[[TabletopGame/Warhammer40000 Nurgle, Chaos God of Decay]]''. Especially the Ireul battle and [[spoiler:Rei's transformation into Mama Reigle]].
* OneTrueThreesome: [[AntiHero Shinji]] [[BattleCouple and]] [[TheBerserker Asuka]] [[RelationshipUpgrade got together]] early in this story. Rei was incredibly jealous of -and attracted to- Asuka, but she was reluctant to [[MurderTheHypotenuse get her out of the way]] because it would get Shinji upset... and [[UnstoppableRage furious with her]]. She settled on trying to have a threesome with them. Her first clumsy attempt was a catastrophic failure, but at the end of the story the three of them got together [[spoiler:(in fact, the FOUR of them got together since Shinji also hooked up with Misato).]]
* ShockingMoments: This sometimes goes straight to orbit, for example when [[spoiler: Shinji creates flying, thermophilic psychic bacteria armed with fusion cannons. Telekinetically accelerating deuterium ions together, the bacteria hurled the products at the still shell-shocked colonies, bombarding them with x-ray, neutron, and alpha radiation. The attacks also positively charged the target, and the bacteria let the electrons stripped from the deuterons fly off towards their targets]].
* {{Squick}}: [[spoiler: Rei]], as she goes down the path of the worship of [[spoiler: Nurgle]], eventually ending up [[spoiler: as Mama Reigle]]; ''"...because they looked like corpses that had been left in a hot swamp for a month."''
* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot:
** Many readers feel that Rei would have worked better as a worshiper of [[spoiler:Slaanesh]] and Misato as a worshiper of [[spoiler:Nurgle]], and that their being the other way around is wildly out of character for both. Some come away believing the only reason Misato ends up following [[spoiler:Slaanesh]] is because Academia Nut [[{{Flanderization}} has reduced the god in question to]] [[spoiler:"the [[MadonnaWhoreComplex Whore]] God"]].
** Academia Nut ''considered'' writing the real official sequel narrating the war against the Necrontyr and the C'Tan with no dimensional-hopping. Hence, the story would consist in the [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold well-intentioned-jerkasses]] main characters fighting their clearly eviler and more powerful enemies to save their galaxy rather than a bunch of awful, smug villains bullying the whole multiverse and getting away with everything. It might have been an interesting history and it would be free from the most of criticism made against the side-story. Sadly, it never happened.
