Neon Genesis Evangelion II: DELTA Invasion/YMMV
For the fic:
- Ass Pull: An enormous spaceship capable of carrying five Evas to Planet DELTA (which orbits the Sun opposite the Earth) in a few days is thrown together in a few chapters. It even seemingly has artificial gravity, despite this not existing in Evangelion.
- Crowning Moment of Awesome : the final battle against Justice in chapter 12 actually approaches something resembling exciting and dramatic action, ditching a lot of the hallmarks of the goofy CurbStompBattles that mark the rest of the fic. Of course, any drama is quickly lost via Moment Killer in a flood of Techno Babble (at the end of chapter 12) and Glurge (most of chapter 13).
- Ensemble Darkhorse: John's brother Charles is introduced as a simple computer programmer, but proves to be quite the commando when SEELE attacks. He also seems to have the ability to take a four month holiday from his job with no repercussions. As noted by the MSTers, Charles is more useful than John.
- Charles also managed to clone himself in one episode.
- Idiot Plot: Jeff Garynn's method of assassinating someone? Attack them in broad daylight in the middle of the street, shout "NO WITNESSES" and then start by gunning down the innocent bystanders.
- On a broader scale, this may cover the entire fanfic.
- Marty Stu: Tom.
- Black Hole Sue
- Jerkass Sue
- Relationship Sue: For Asuka.
- Squick: Shinji and Rei have kids.
For the MST:
- Crowning Moment of Funny: The MSTings of this series contain some of Elmer Studios' best material, including:
- The Random DELTA Invasion Episode Generator.
- The aforementioned Monk.
- Shinji's confrontation with Gendo. "You know, dad, you're... very mean."
- The attempts to summarize John's past.
- Charles cements his Memetic Badass status:
"I don't think so!!!" yelled Charles
Tsuneo: Watch Charles destroy an entire army with a single shot.
as he shot one of the soldier's hands. The bullet made the grenade the soldier was holding explode wiping out most of the soldiers around.
Tsuneo: I was joking.
- Memetic Badass: Charles, as mentioned above.
- Memetic Molester: Ritsuko has an unhealthy obsession with seemingly performing synch tests every five minutes, which saw her quickly turned into a depraved rubber fetishist.
