Evangelion and Horse Racing fans rejoice!

By The Eva Monkey on Sunday, October 21st, 2012 in Evangelion 3.0, Rebuild of Evangelion, Video.

Either we’re beginning to see the full force of the blitzkrieg of promotion for Evangelion 3.0, or there’s some huge cross section of Evangelion and Horse Racing fans in Japan that I’m completely unaware of.  At any rate, there are two ads that involve this weird Eva Unit-01/Horse hybrid thing called “Eva-Impact”, whose origin is […]
