$2.70 for 100 ml? Ouch. I still think these would be cool to have as collectibles though.

So all the characters can have two, but Pen Pen can't get one?

For shame.

I think the caps have a more novel appeal than the bottles do.
No Maya Ibuki love? ;__;

I swear... Japan is cool and all... but they by far are incredibly notorious for blatantly milking anything popular for every single thing that it is worth. It's kinda degrading to the franchise if you think about it. :\

So…will drinking any of these put me into "Beast Mode" on the field? Will I still be held liable for what happens to anyone in my vicinity?

I can honestly say there isn't a product I wouldn't expect to see the Eva logo and/or characters slapped on at this point. Hey, what sells sells I'm just sayin'.

Hey, K-On is doing the same thing, and nobody's saying that.

Besides, it's not like there's bathroom humor yet....... oh wait (NSFW)........ Laughing

Degrading to the franchise? They've been "degrading the Evangelion franchise" in this way for fifteen years. Evangelion probably only has slightly less merchandising than Bleach and One Piece -- and Evangelion is only one 26 episode season and a few movies!

You're ten years too late to complain about Eva merch.

Heaven forbid Japan give us amusing stuff to collect with characters we like.

I only came for the "It gives you WINGS!" jokes, glad to see I wasn't disapointed Anime hyper

I am amused by eva merch, but I don't I find the bottles interesting enough to see as more than a novelty.

Pen Pen isn't a member of Shinji's harem, Misato, Kaworu, Rei, Asuka, and Mari are.

That's Pen Pen's harem. He just lends it to Shinji out of pity.
