Eva Possibilities and Fusion Pandemonium

Eva Possibilites and Fusion Pandemonion is a Neon Genesis Evangelion / Dragon Ball crossover fic written by Xed Alpha.

A year or so after Majin Buu's defeat, Goten & Trunks try to replicate Gotenks' ripping a hole between dimensions done back during his fight against Super Buu. However, they screw up, and are instead sucked through a rift that spits them out in Tokyo-3, just as the berserk Unit-01 starts beating the crap out of the 3rd Angel. Soon after, Goku & Vegeta, thanks to Bulma, follow the boys, and soon the four get themselves involved in the world's plight (mainly because the dimensional interference caused by the Angels' existence is preventing them from going home). Soon after Bulma's tech inadvertently sends her and the four all of NERV's most classified data, Goku & Vegeta decide to do what they can to clandestinely throw as many spanners into SEELE's & Gendo's works as they can, soon recruiting Shinji to help them. All the while, the Angels continue their assaults, as Saiyans & pilots join to protect the planet. Needs a Better Description.

This fic, while suffering from a few problems, is mostly a great read. Plenty of new things happen (especially in later chapters) to keep things fresh, battles are done justice, moments of humor are perfectly interspersed with drama, and Shinji shows that he has inherited his father's Magnificent Bastard-ness. However, the fic updates very infrequently, enough to be mistaken for a Dead Fic at times, with Chapters 21 and on having over a year between posting.

Add tropes as you spot 'em.

Important Notice! The author has taken down the original link for the story and has chosen to look over and revise the story, currently in the Evangelion section as opposed to the crossovers one. The defunct former link has been taken down and replaced by the new one. The author intends to gradually upload each chapter one by one until reaching the current point in the story, before continuing further - so far, Chapters 1-6 have been re-uploaded. Tropes listed below are still relevant however, though Rouge Angles of Satin will be dealt with according to Word of God.

Enjoy!

Although a long hiatus led people to think this to be a Dead Fic, recent (1/14/14 as of this writing) updates brought it Back From The Not Quite Dead. The last published chapter is the new 22 (the additions made pushed events further away).

Tropes used in Eva Possibilities and Fusion Pandemonium include:

Categorize Under Appropriate Trope Please: While still goofy and fun-loving, and by no means book-smart, this fic shows Goku as being very wise and insightful, dispensing sage advice to the NGE crew (especially Shinji, who Goku sorta takes under his wing and becomes the dad-figure the kid desperately needs), consistently assessing situations calmly & thoroughly and coming up with effective solutions, and even managing to toss a few wrenches in Gendō’s and SEELE’s plots.

  • Back From The Not Quite Dead: Yui Ikari, first as a hitchhiker in Shinji’s body, and then getting her own body back later.
  • Caught the Heart on His Sleeve: Rei, to Shinji in Chapter 13.
  • Cool Big Sis: Rei has pretty much become this to Goten, as has Asuka to Trunks.
  • Cloudcuckoolander: Yui has shades of this when she returns. Or maybe it's just because she seems overly nice and friendly compared to the original atmosphere of Evangelion.
  • Crowning Moment of Awesome:
    • The newly-arrived Vegeta utterly dominating the 4th Angel Shamshel, and then launching a one-Saiyan (non-lethal) assault on NERV to rescue his captive son, beating the shit out of Gendō as punishment.
    • Gogeta vs. Bardiel.
  • Crowning Moment of Funny:
    • Chapter 5: Vegeta has spent half an hour trying to awaken Goku, his yells actually shaking the building. He gives up and wanders off, grumbling how the likes of Goku could sleep through breakfast time. Sure enough, the phrase “breakfast” makes Goku wake up immediately. (“I hate you” “What’d I do?”)
    • Vegeta teasing Shinji about rooming with Misato & Asuka in Ch. 13… and the girls later choosing to tease him simultaneously while hitting quite close to the mark Vegeta had hit.
    • Shinji’s first “conversation” with his mother: “I gotta stop eating Asuka's cooking, Misato was bad enough… But just what was with that mushroom soup she made?” “I try to say hi, and you say ‘what the hell’? Where did you learn manners like that, young man?” “I’m not gonna panic this time” “Good” “Because I know what you are…” “That’s great!” “…You’re a mushroom, aren’t you?”
    • Goku casually and light-heartedly scaring the crap out of the Section 2 agents sent to bring Shinji in after Yui-in-Shinji’s-body punched Gendō in the face
    • Chapter 23: Rei grasps her first sexual innuendo, courtesy of Asuka
    • Chapter 24: Misato's "punishment" to Kaji for keeping secrets from her. ("Last night... Misato... was the man...")
  • Crowning Moment of Heartwarming:
    • Shinji comforting Misato during her breakdown after Vegeta’s painfully-truthful Hannibal Lecture, and then managing to bring her out of it.
    • Chapter 21, with Shinji & Yui talking in their mindscape, where Yui states how the AT Field is more than just a separating barrier: “It’s the light of our soul. Don’t you see, Shinji? The light of my soul… of my existence… is you”.
    • Nearly every interaction between Shinji and Rei:
      • Chapter 13: The adorable interactions as Shinji makes his decision on his feelings for the obviously-distraught Rei and embraces her; she’s so happy that she cries (bonus points for Fuyutsuki, watching from a room above, who decides to keep this a secret from Gendō)
      • Their First Kiss in the next chapter.
      • Chapter 22, when Shinji finally says the big three most important words: “I love you”, and the two make love for the first time.
  • Cry Cute: Rei, in Chapter 13. Don't worry, though; they're tears of happiness.
  • Curb Stomp Battle: Vegeta curb-stomps Shamshel; Goku tries to let NERV handle Ramiel by themselves, but when Shinji & Rei get into what he sees as too much danger, he promptly skewers the Angel with a Kamehameha; Super Saiyan 3 Gotenks vs. Gaghiel… ‘nuff said; Trunks uses his sword (from Tapion from the 13th movie) to take Matarael down with little effort; Bardiel manages to incorporate Saiyan genes into itself after Goten briefly touches the infected Unit-03, and promptly curb-stomps the Evas, Goku & Vegeta, and even Gotenks, especially once it uses a Dummy Plug body to form its own, Goten-sized body independent of Eva-03, and gets a massive power boost in the process… and then Goku & Vegeta fuse, and Bardiel is utterly, mercilessly curb-stomped by Gogeta; berserk Unit-01 vs. Zeruel, even more of a curb-stomp than in canon, since the berserk state was triggered not by Shinji’s desperation, but by his Unstoppable Rage at Zeruel nearly killing Rei.
  • Cuteness Proximity: A group of middle-school girls' reaction to Goten.
  • Deadpan Snarker: Vegeta (of course), Shinji, Yui
  • Department of Redundancy Department: Piccolo is referred to as a 'green Namekian' in the first chapter.
  • Doting Parent: Yui explicitly describes herself as one after fussing over Shinji once she gets her body back.
  • Flat What: This fic's Shinji's reaction to the synchronization training idea in preparation for the rematch with Israfel.
  • Hannibal Lecture: Vegeta gives a little one to Misato in Ch. 14 (“At least I have managed to reset my destiny and choose a course I am now true to, regaining what was once lost… You dwell on that past, however; you allow it to own your destiny, not moving on, dishonoring the sacrifices made for you… A weakness”). It works.
  • Headbutt Thermometer: Yui does this to Shinji while fussing over his health once they both get out of Eva-01.
  • Henpecked Husband: Gendō, once Yui gets her body back
  • Heroic BSOD: Shinji suffers quite the big one when, courtesy of Bulma’s hacking tech, Goku & Vegeta show him everything regarding NERV & SEELE, their agendas and purposes, and such. He then decides to get dangerous and side with Goku & Vegeta against Gendō & SEELE. Misato has one when Vegeta’s Hannibal Lecture hits home.
  • Highly-Visible Ninja / Conspicuous Trenchcoat: Shinji laughs at Section 2’s pitiful attempts to blend in with the scenery whenever they’re shadowing him.
  • Hot Shoujo Dad: Goku, at least in the eyes of a gaggle of middle-school girls.
  • Important Beard Trim: Gendō, at Yui’s insistence after she gets her body back
  • Lethal Chef: Misato, who manages to do what is thought to be completely impossible: Giving Goku indegestion.
  • Magnificent Bastard: Shinji's just starting to show that he is, in fact, his father's son. And then we learn that he might've gotten it from his mother instead.
  • Mama Bear: Upon gaining access to all of Shinji’s memories, the first thing Yui-in-Shinji’s-body does is head to the Commander’s Office and one-punch-KO Gendō hard enough to break Shinji’s hand. On a lesser note early on in the story, Bulma manages to scare Vegeta into submission when he objects to fusing with Goku to follow the boys.
  • The Messiah: Goku, of course. Also, Ritsuko describes Yui as one: “I bet if she had her way she'd be friends with every single person on the planet”
  • Mind Hug: How Kyōko Sōryū’s soul nullifies Arael’s psychic attack on Asuka; Trunks helped.
  • Oh Crap: Vegeta has a minor one of these when he learns in a spar that Trunks has learned the Kamehameha.
  • Papa Wolf: Vegeta does not take NERV capturing Trunks well, as Gendō painfully learns. Goku’s also starting to show shades of surrogate-Papa Wolf towards Shinji. Shinji also becomes this whenever Rei's involved.
  • Relationship Upgrade: Shinji & Rei consummate their relationship... with Shinji forgetting that Yui’s still inside his head and thus getting a front-row seat for the action.
  • Rouge Angles of Satin: The fic's biggest and most notable flaw is the widespread presence of spelling and grammar issues.
  • Ship Tease: Maya / Gohan (or "Moriyama Gohannesburg").
  • Sugar and Ice Personality: Rei, full stop. And her sugar, reserved for Shinji and Goten, is absolutely adorable.
  • Team Dad: Goku, especially to Shinji. Yui explicitly states that she trusts Goku with Shinji's life far more than she ever could trust Gendo.
  • This Is Wrong on So Many Levels: After Yui has trouble in walking with Shinji’s body:

Yui: Gimme a break, here; he's got such short legs and he certainly didn't get these hips from me I tell you" (pats him/herself on the hips, rubbing them up and down slightly) "...Hmm must've gotten these from his father (squeezes them once or twice) ohh yeah that's Gendō alright..."
Misato: "Oooohkay.. That was turning just wrong on SO many levels..."

  • Trapped in Another World: At least Bulma figured out how to send reinforcements and open two-way communications between the two worlds.
  • Xanatos Speed Chess: A lovely three-way match of SEELE vs. Gendō vs. the Saiyans & Shinji. Later turns into NERV, Gendō, Yui, Shinji, & the Saiyans vs. SEELE.
