Designed to be three-dimensional and approximately 34 cm in size, the aesthetic of this high-vibration particle knife accurately represents the item as seen in the film version, including the foldable transformation design. LED lights on the blade emulate the white light seen in the animation and incorporate vibrating sound effects for a more realistic experience. Imagine holding that in your hand; it would bring the on-screen world to life!
The knife comes with a stand inspired by the red sphere core of the Angels, a staple image from the Evangelion series. Not only that, but it displays an excellent cracked appearance as well. This stand is so slick-looking!
The knife features over 25 voice clips from the characters Shinji (voiced by Megumi Ogata) and Misato (expressed by Kotono Mitsuishi), including memorable lines like “I mustn’t run away” and “Status Update! First Battle Configuration”. It even includes the BGM “DECISIVE BATTLE” from the series. Listening to these while you play will surely get the adrenaline pumping!
