A little bit over fifteen years ago, I started an ambitious little fan site called Eva Monkey that you may be familiar with. Through much of my college experience, I spent far too many late nights tinkering with code and generally trying to build the “ultimate” Evangelion fan site, neglecting my studies in the process. The […]

Ten year ago today, I launched EvaMonkey.com. Ten years. TEN. Do you have any idea how long that is in internet time? It should be noted that the site has been around for a bit longer than that, I began the site in the summer of 2002, hosting it on a Keenspace server for a […]

I may have spoken too soon about the lack of footage from Evangelion 3.0. I also kind of wish the eva-nets was like tumblr so I can just hit reblog and be done. At any rate, if you haven’t heard via EvaGeeks, Niconico did some sort of site update cross-promotion thing where they unveiled some […]

Jon Lin, aka Ornette, over at Eva Geeks has made a Live Wallpaper for Android devices resembling the Magi hacking as seen in episode 13, and The End of Evangelion. It might not replicate the effect precisely, but it’s kind of neat, and might be of interest to you if you’re an Adroid user. If […]

It seems like more and more cool music is coming out of members of Eva Geeks these days. First Rachel Macwhirter, then Dr. Shoggoth, and now Michael Mancuso (aka Esselfortium), who has released an entire Evangelion-inspired concept album called Seventeen More Times. This is the description of the album Esselfortium provided: “Seventeen More Times is […]

I do this panel at conventions… sometimes it’s called “The Evangelion Omake Box”, and sometimes it’s called “Evangelion, WTF?”. And essentially what it is is an emceed clip show featuring a bunch of ridiculous bullshit from Evangelion and it’s fandom. Amidst the video files and audio clips, there’s this video, by an Eva Geeks user […]

Rachel Macwhirter, who I’ve posted about before, has released another original Evangelion song, entitled “With Me Now”. Unlike “A Thousand Angels”, which was kind of general, this song focuses on the second child, Asuka. It starts off kind of loose and builds up over the course of the song, adding in strings, percussion, and flute. […]

I like seeing people inspired by works like Evangelion. I also like to see what comes from that inspiration. Usually it’s things like art, fiction, cosplay, music videos, and occasionally parodies. But I think original music inspired by creative works is horribly lacking, so I like to see when someone writes a song inspired by […]

A little bit over 5 years ago, I set out to create a concise singular site of resources dedicated to Evangelion. An ambitious prospect to say the least when you’re dealing with a work that not only has an ever-expanding universe, but is already a work steeped in uncertainty and brimming with layers of detail.
