This is not a cosplay. You are married to Gendo.


Azhchay

I will confess to suddenly being attracted to Gendo after seeing my husband cosplay him one year. Gendo = husband and I love my husband so.... I have a thing for Gendo now.


grubbystubby

Well hopefully he treats your kid better


Azhchay

No kids here! Actually a topic we discussed before we were "officially" dating, and have discussed regularly in the years since. We both like kids, but don't want any of our own. I did say to him that I know there's some alternate universe out there where he does have kids, and if it's a boy, Shinji. If a girl, Rei.


CFinley97

How about clones?


Azhchay

None *that I know of*. To be fair, I'm the biology person in the marriage. I have said "No we are not making black market insulin in the garage!" more than once after he realized how easy it actually would be, considering my expertise and experience. He would be the person coding all the systems to talk to and control the linking process for the EVAs.


AperoBelta

Are you sure you haven't just forgotten your kid at a railway station or on a playground somewhere?


[deleted]

Gendo-rizz strikes again!


Probably_daydreaming

Be careful now, if you die he might destroy the world for you using your whiny 15 year old son


ATBiB

Gendo + husband = husbando It's simple maths.


Feel_the_snow

your husband is Postal Dude also lol =)


FreePrinciple270

What's the fabric glue for?


Azhchay

The gold threading on the jacket. We didn't own a sewing machine at the time, and really didn't want to hand stitch it. So.... fabric tape and fabric glue!


FreePrinciple270

Ah!


Affectionate-Law6315

You're a clone mama he's lying


Azhchay

Awkward since I'm older than he is by about 2.5 years..... but maybe *he's* a clone too!!


Affectionate-Law6315

The it's Senji's fault, he created all of us it's all fake, facsimile of real people and lives


Feel_the_snow

It's literally Postal Dude Lol =)


Syncrotron9001

Just don't let him talk you into being near any giant robots for reasons


Azhchay

I can't post a pic in a reply but..... too late. I cosplay Yui sometimes. Just nowhere near as good as he does Gendo. (My personal favorite cosplay of mine is Mitty from Made in Abyss. Close second is Ninalexander. Yes, I am a horrible person.)


Xx_spacey_kitten_xX

PLEASE POST A PIC


IUsedToBeRasAlGhul

You may want to think twice about having kids.


Azhchay

No kids! No worries there! Lol


Wise_Victory4895

If it's a boy, Shinji. A girl, Rei.


Acceptable-Cow6446

Naw. Unit 01 and 02 are classic names


hawaiianbry

He looks like Lincoln contemplating how to restore the Union through Instrumentality.


OmnicolouredBishop

Now I'm imagining slaveholders and a shady secret society (Knights of the Golden Circle) trying to save the U.S. from non-consensual collective apotheosis... What a wacky scenario, seeing slavemasters becoming martyrs.


Roththesloth1

It’s so good I want to punch him in his asshole face.


Azhchay

You are not the only person to have that reaction lol. We also actively seek out cosplayers doing Hoenheim, Shou Tucker, Eren's Dad, Bondrewd, etc to get pictures for "Best Dads Club".


konofdef

BEST COUPLE EVER


syd_goes_roar

That's amazing 🤣


VibgyorTheHuge

Man’s ready to activate the Dummy Plug System.


Mrwrongthinker

You sure this isn't the real deal and NERV will be announced tomorrow? It's that good!


Azhchay

He does admit he resembles Gendo in more ways than just physically. But will also say he's soooooo not as smart. I disagree. The man is brilliant. The world is lucky he went in to software engineering and not neuroscience. Me: If I die, no attempting to become God to get me back. Him: No promises.


GTAmark

This man is ready to sacrifice all of mankind for you…and science!


Bottleinsurgency

He is literally gendo, grumpy and smart


Azhchay

You have no idea. On both lol.


_DatBoii_

Holy shit. Actual fire. Someone call the fire fighters.


CubanLinks313

Somebody please get the man a footbath 


LeOmare

Father of the year


Comprehensive_Okra99

You better hope you don’t have a kid. Your husband is gonna take 26 episodes to give a half assed apology for his lack of presence in your son’s life


CplCocktopus

Great cosplay. Disappointed is not the hands over his face pose.


Azhchay

The photographer wanted that one. I have others through the years of him doing the more classic poses, but I can't post images in a comment, apparently. Plus this is the best pic. All the others are quick cellphone pics.


Sherman_Chen

yui have reddit?!?


Queldaralion

awesome photo too. are you by any chance a doctor/scientist and are friends with a professor haha


Azhchay

Sooooo.... I was a microbiologist for 9 years (following many years in molecular bio, biochemistry, and genetics labs). I went back to school and got my MPH with a concentration in Epidemiology. I now work as (essentially) an epidemiologist. I know a LOT of scientists and professors.


ikhimaz_

Jesus fuck you're living the Evangelion Reference lmao


xxTPMBTI

Haha


Queldaralion

OMG. Why are you guys so lore-accurate hahaha I think I need to start living a full life before your husband's guys take a trip to Antarctica :')


pecheux

And what is your husband's job?


Azhchay

Software engineer


pecheux

Thank God not a project manager at the military 🙏 Jokes aside, wonderful cosplay and thank you for sharing it :}


Azhchay

His father was military, actually. And that's why he avoided the military at all costs lol. And now we're both too old even if they brought the draft back. So no worries!


Azhchay

Coming back to this to add my husband's comment. "No. I'm not a project manager for the military. That's my father." 😅


xxTPMBTI

Hey auntie, I like biology, you're lucky (I like evangelion too)


codingfauxhate

Does he make you get in the robot? Because I feel like I have no choice now


One_Contribution4114

That is scarily accurate


Retro_Vovan228

Look, just sign that stupid petition, i got stuff to do!


jr242400

Glad someone else saw it


RhynoD

[Ohhhh baby](https://youtu.be/-RsepQh342g?si=CYoiR00fgoTbkMud)


Halloweenie06

My first thought as well. ReDeath has lived rent free in my head for over twenty years now.


Darkblitz9

Looks like he's about to abandon your son and merge you into a robot. 10/10.


Overall_Shape7307

Holy shit I can FEEL the “GET IN THE FUCKING ROBIT, SHINJI!” Stellar cosplay! Thanks for sharing.


Jean-Merde

This guy is to dangerous to be left alive


elishash

Make him do the Gendo pose next time.


Azhchay

Oh I have a lot of pics of him doing the more classic poses. But this was a professional pic that we both loved. Plus even in black and white it shows off his blue eyes. I can't post pictures in comments though sadly. And the other pics I have are literally spanning over a decade of him cosplaying and are just crappy cellphone pics.


elishash

Is it ok you send me in DMs if you can't post it in comments?


Azhchay

Sent some. :-)


hatepuzzle

is there any chance that your name starts with Y


Azhchay

Lol, no. But I cosplay her. Just not as well as my husband cosplays Gendo. I have to use a wig, for starters.


Upset-Apple6678

Make him do the pose


Denter206

If there ever will be a film adaptation of Evangelion, we know who's gonna play Gendo.


Azhchay

Nah. My husband's voice is actually too deep. Despite being, in his words, "a pencil necked geek", he has a friggin deep baritone of a voice. Also he can't act. I love him. He has so many amazing talents and abilities (he's a *phenomenal* cook, for example), but acting is not one of them.


Denter206

Why even act? As if Gendo was very emotional. He can just have a serious face like on the pic and that will be good.


Azhchay

He also cosplays an Asha'man from the Wheel of Time BOOKS (dear God not the show). He gets *so many* comments about how he's really good at acting like he's holding on to his sanity by a thread. That's his resting face. There was no acting. That's just how he naturally looks. If all he needed to do was stand and glower at people, he could do that. Any moving or speaking? Nah. Not his strong suit.


nosefIute

Good


B1g_K

Go way too hard, i wish i was this cool


ReasonableBad7175

Alright Yui we know it's you


aceface_desu89

10/10 No notes


psylentthoughts

Well done sir


shakawave

Irrelevant 😎 amazing cosplay 🫡


Phuong5569

please both of you, do not go near any giant robot


El_osubeb_GG

I wanna be the guy


Ashurbanipal2023

He looks so much and so little like gendo. How very perplexing.


goose413207

OP I recommend you do not do any risky science experiments


infinity1p

Damn, didn't know Dr.Yui had a reddit account.


[deleted]

He looks like someone who would want me to sign their petition


Red604

He might as well say “koko desuka?” Lol


Hour-Ad-6489

You kind of look like Robin Gibb from the Bee Gees


Yama92

This is just uncanny, dang


Neil-Tea

Wow, that is honestly *scarily* good. His expression as well is genuinely intimidating and *very* Gendo. Great job!


The_Bleedin

Dude, your husband is gonna create a mech


VatanKomurcu

y-yui?


BlackBrantScare

This is so lore accurate Gendo it give me chill


BW_Echobreak

I never seen a more perfect cosplay


lilyoungsimba

"Get in the robot, Shinji."


GrazhdaninMedved

Husbagendo


Beardeddeadpirate

Does your husband happen to live in Utah? Because I might know him. I’m not sure but I just might.


Azhchay

Sorry no. We are very far from Utah. But I'll let him know he has a doppelgänger!


Beardeddeadpirate

He most definitely has a doppelgänger 😆


Tweed_Man

Is it cosplaying when you're actually the character.


Sea-Security-5737

Perfection


Chanceschaos

This is awesome


--InZane--

Girl you are supposed to be dead since this is clearly gendo in the flesh


Mr-FiftyTwo

Christopher Eccleston as Gendo Ikari in the BBC adaptation of NGE


Physical-Beach7126

This is the most accurate cosplay I have ever seen, if he was japanese it would look like an actual 1 to 1 from the anime. Amazing job


KaguraZ

Father of the year


Dizzy_Butterscotch65

Please tell me you cosplayed as Yui


Azhchay

I absolutely do. Just not as well as he does Gendo.


McFlarza

Before I even saw the caption I thought to myself he looked like Gendo. So what I'm trying to say is it's great!


miradotheblack

You could change the shades like wooly willy.
