Eva Monkey Truer

Hey, remember when you could spend like $400 on an Evangelion ipod? Well now you can spend just $2-3 on your iPhone or iPod Touch to make it Evangelion-ish. Appliya Inc. has developed an application for the Apple iPhone and iPod to give it a clock and countdown time reminiscent of the activation timer in Evangelion. There’s also a goofy picture stamp application that… puts Angels, Evas, and Rei Ayanami’s hair into your pictures. And if that sounds kind of silly, that’s because it is silly. If you’d like to see just how silly it is, click here to see a picture of the application in action.

From crab meat to windshield visors, Gainax has put Evangelion on everything you could possibly imagine. So Evangelion tarot cards are not that unusual once you stop to think about it. In fact, I recall a time on the former Eva Monkey Forums when we mused over producing an Evangelion tarot deck. Ultimately, nothing came of it, but it’s interesting going back and comparing the old list to the set that Gainax produced. With the exception of Gendo as The Emperor, the lists are totally different. I know very little about Tarot, so I can’t say whether Gainax put sufficient thought into which characters would best represent the meanings associated with each card.

These cards are a limited edition set of 22 cards, slated for release on March 19th for a price of 2,940 yen. The set comes with a case and guide.
