I wouldn't say it's overrated per say. Like people don't talk about it as being particularly great. In fact, these days you're more likely to see people saying the opposite and that it's actually kind of middling. However, it came out at a time that most westerners just getting into anime were likely only familiar with shonen style anime and whatever else was being broadcast on Toonami. So to go from watching Dragonball and Sailor Moon, to Evangelion is quite a large leap and a bit of culture shock. And that is why it became so ingrained into anime pop culture.
It might be overrated, and in some parts even downright bad, but it was at the time highly influential and was trendy. Similar to how death note was, and honestly a lot of popular anime. If you watch death note for example now that the hype is gone, it's just straight up goofy. Like Eva it is very easy to parody. I think you should just enjoy media regardless of it being overrated or not. After all it is better to just move on to things you actually truly like instead of telling others how their favourite things are not as good as they think they are.

Welcome to another episode of: "i am a yakuza fan AND i even dont know when i am looking something canon or a mod"
It's a side quest the big snake mall in Hawaii about a game show for a producer
Just finished it like 10 minuets ago actually
Players : “How bizarre you really want this series to be?”
RGG : “Yes”
Canon
And then there's stuff in the actual games like Ichiban Holdings which you spend many hours playing through and then it's not even canon within the same game
"Get in the fking robot ,Ichiban. Or Kiryu has to do it again"
Don't give RGG ideas.
Wait, AGAIN?
Im currently playing kiwami*
Do what again
"Get in the fucking digger, Ichiban or Clara has to do it again!"
what robot? evangelion are organic.
dumbest repeated meme
"What is this? I'm a Dragon Quest fan." - Ichiban, probably
If anything he should know; Dragon Quest has parodied this...kinda.
@@RiderWithTheScarfHes probably still in the middle of 100% all the other Dragon Quests he missed while in prison
@@5h3nn0ng "They had REMAKES? And I missed on how many anime?" Ichiban, probably
@@RiderWithTheScarf Also a couple of movies IIRC
No penguin 6/10
Nancy covers the spot
This was a perfect time for a chicken gag.
@@MamaLuigi908Omelette could have been BGAWWK!
man i miss pen pen i wish h couldve got more screen time
STAY AWAY FROM KIRYU'S HOSPITAL BED, ICHIBAN
Bruh.... bruh no...
🥒💦
oh fuck
don’t you fucking dare
Oh shit
Man, Ichiban's been in prison too long to miss out on Evangelion.
How to trigger someone's PTSD:
I couldn't believe it when I came across this scene in the game lol
they look like the cult in gta v
KIFLOM
They might as well be
Fun fact: the Congratulations scene from Evangelion is in of itself a reference to a British TV show, I Claudius, based off Emperor Claudius of Roman history

Really? Which episode? I couldn't find it.
@@kenpe8295 It's the final episode. IIRC it's also the final scene. Rather than everyone surrounding him, they all come up to him one at a time
I can't believe this is real
Why?
I can't wait to see how many funny references will be in this vid 😂😂😂
The one that killed me was the one substory with the Weaboo, when they said that they went to parties while he was studying the blade 😭
I've never even seen Eva and it's what my mind went straight to. Only thing missing is the one stray "way to go man"
in jp they do say it, its just not translated. The guy at 0:24
@@BDtetranah it's actually 0:21
Peak of fiction
I didn't realize this was an Evangelion reference because they weren't in the sky. I have failed as both a Yakuza and Evangelion fan
Its been so long since ive watched eva so it slipped my mind. Thanks for sharing because this somehow felt like ive seen it before.
I like that the english sub had to change the dialogue otherwise dubbers would be confused as fuck and think the game is bugged
Congratulations
Congratulations!
It's wacky side quests like this that still still make Yakuza/like a dragon series the greatest of all time lol! 🤣👌🔥
Ichiban fr thinks Shinji is literally him fr
Ichibun is a type of guy, who would watch Evangelion because there are cool giant robots.
No way, there's no dragons in Eva
Fuuuuck, I knew this scene tickled some "what is that a reference to?"-calls in my brain but now that you mention it, it's kinda obvious. Sharp eye!
congradulation!
Now get in the robot
OMEDETOU 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I literally just did this substory today too
This is exactly what I thought of
peak fiction
real
Pepega Clap
I can't believe they missed out on having Nancy for Pen Pen
*Whoever fights Robots should see to it that in the process he does not become a Robot. And if you gaze long enough into an anime, the anime will gaze back into you.* Nietzsche, probably
dang it, I didn't realize after seing this video again LOL
Like a Dragon: Infinite References
Gwok gwok!
i really wasnt certain whether the reference was intentional or not but it's good to see someone else got the same impression
Throw him to OGverse and give him a Gespenst/Grungust
Nah. Give him Daizengar
when hospital reference
Gratulacje
IS LIKE THE SIMPSONS MOVIE
omedeto!
He looks like he was about to cry
Typical Sinji
ياخي ياكوزا تحفة فنية ههههههههههههه
Paruabeins
Bro I saw this and all I could say was "is this a fuckinh Evangelion reference??"
Belle bi..
This is secret ending where shinji able to save reina from nishiki's man
Blud is NOT shinji💀
Where's the penguin though?
Is that a 1 to 1 recreation of Ala Moana Mall?
That is exactly what it is, though they call it the "Anaconda Shopping Center" in the game.

hahahahahaha!

I never watched evongellion so this was just super out of place to me

All these characters saying Omedetou (congratulations)
The subtitles :
Congrats indeed!
Hear Hear!
Ya did it!
That was epic!
(which of course, never said anything but Congratulations in the original Eva reference too)
Once again, localizers proving they don't deserve their job.
This are the same localizers as the ones who renamed Daigo summon from "Guns of the Patriarchs" to "Guns of the Forefathers" to avoid a Metal Gear reference.

So yeah, no, these localizers deserve their job.
Some of them are clearly saying more than just “Omedetou”, or are we ignoring that part?
Perhaps the dumbest comment I've read in regards to localization. So cringey when kids who have never studied another language in their life try to have opinions about this stuff.
Yeah, the localizers completely ruined the reference here
Yooo mid referencing mid
ngl evangelion gotta be the most overrated anime of all time. its good but for it to be referenced as much as it is, is nuts.
How often does NGE get referenced compared to other media with iconic/memorable scenes?

I wouldn't say it's overrated per say. Like people don't talk about it as being particularly great. In fact, these days you're more likely to see people saying the opposite and that it's actually kind of middling.

demon slayer and Tokyo revengers in question
It might be overrated, and in some parts even downright bad, but it was at the time highly influential and was trendy. Similar to how death note was, and honestly a lot of popular anime. If you watch death note for example now that the hype is gone, it's just straight up goofy. Like Eva it is very easy to parody. I think you should just enjoy media regardless of it being overrated or not. After all it is better to just move on to things you actually truly like instead of telling others how their favourite things are not as good as they think they are.
At the time of the 90s there legitimately wasn't any other anime like it. It's what lead to Cowboy Bebop being greenlight
Congratulations
