Spoiler Alert: For those who saw the 3D animated Super Mario Bros that premiered in April this year, you may not have noticed the reference to the anime Evangelion . However, the scene shows several parts very close together that served as references or for some plagiarism.

Therefore, in the scenes in question from the anime Evangelion, Shiji Ikari faces angels, where the movements are practically identical to those used in the Super Mario film.
Check out the comments:
- I feel like people didn't believe me when I first said it. unmistakable
- The mirror image kick is what takes it from “they saw Eve once or twice” to “no, they just copied”
- I saw the text of this tweet and thought “come on”. No. You're right.
- Where is the line between paying homage and just copying the source material?
- Bro. I knew it was some kind of anime reference just from the vibes, but I didn't realize it was almost 1-1 an Evangelion reference 😂
Synopsis:

Japan gains a provisional capital, Tokyo-2, whose Government promotes the construction of the future capital called Tokyo-3.
