Longtime readers of our site, or anyone who follows Japanese pop culture at all, has probably noticed that two of the country’s most heavily exploited media franchises are Evangelion and Hello Kitty.
In May, the inevitable finally happened when respective branding companies Groundworks and Sanrio teamed up to launch a line of crossover products to commemorate this fall’s release of the newest Evangelion movie, Evangelion: 3.0 You Can (Not) Redo.
Now, with the long-awaited film only a few weeks away, Japanese underwear maker 3RDWARE has joined the fray to outfit your First Child with adorable Eva x Hello Kitty boxer briefs.
A first round of ladies underwear actually hit the official Evangelion Store early last month, with eight different designs available.

3RDWARE is also offering a number of Evangelion-only designs. Here’s a few of our favorites:





You said it Pen Pen!
All of the above and more can be found on the official Evangelion Store.
