Apparently it’s true, as confirmed by those who took the test. Try to tackle the question. Uploaded by some gaijin who’s not supposed to do so lol.
Dunno whether it’s been done before, but to think that a popular anime like Eva was used in an official government exam brings tears of joy to my eyes. Though this excerpt was taken from its audio drama series, not the anime. At least from what I read.
I read there was a Dragon Quest-related question too. Will get back on that once it’s confirmed. EDIT: Confirmed by my classmates, there was also a Dragon Quest question in there. Cool!
Guess watching anime helps. It sure helped me a lot, at least! Damn, if I knew it were to come out I would’ve taken Level 1, grrr. I would at least get this one correct :)
For those who don’t wish to try, the English translation of the audio is available after the jump, courtesy of Kinny Riddle of figure.fm.
Question 15. You’re listening to a drama on radio. In the show, who is going to do what?
Man 1: Captain, our second line of defense has been penetrated! The monster is heading straight for the Central Command Centre.
Man 2: At this rate, we won’t even last 30 minutes.
Captain: Which Model Fighters can be deployed right now?
Man 1: Just Unit 00.
Captain: Looks like we have no choice but to deploy Unit 04 as well.
Man 2: Testing for Unit 04 is still not completed yet. Besides, we don’t have anyone capable of piloting it.
Captain: Unit 00 won’t be able to stop that thing. So I will personally pilot Unit 04.
Man 1: You’re going yourself!? But Captain, you won’t be able to withstand Unit 04’s acceleration with that injury!
Woman: I will go!
Captain: Asuka!
Asuka: I will be able to control Unit 04. So please, let me go!
Captain: But you’re still a trainee. Now’s not the time for kids to show off their skills.
Asuka: Now’s not the time to argue about this! (Runs off)
Captain: Hey, Asuka! Wait!
Computer announcer: Unit 04 is now ready for launch.
Captain: Asuka, we’re counting on you.
In the show, who is going to do what?
1. The Captain goes on Unit 00.
2. The Captain goes on Unit 04.
3. The woman (Asuka) goes on Unit 00.
4. The woman goes on Unit 04.
your header look delicious and tempting. the Curry rice. I had one in Nagahama. However i miss Okonomiyaki.. my colleague and i just love it. It makes me drool everytime i think about it LOL!
Hehe don’t worry, I won’t make you *too* hungry, as the picture doesn’t come out everytime :)
Wow that’s really cool! And I passed even though I didn’t understand everything ^^
Yknow, given that the scene never actually happened (yet, I guess), you could theoretically argue that it may have been a freak coincidence. Can you imagine Gendou (if that’s who taicho was) personally sortie in an Eva unit? :P
Wow I definitely wanna see that scene. Different than the usual chair-sitting and fingers-crossing pose, I’m sure :P
Dude, if titles such as Evangelion & Dragon Quest made liquid come out from your eyes, I’m afraid of what else will come out if they used Aishiteruze Baby & Pop’N Music instead.
Hahahaha what the.
Actually I won’t be as impressed, since if Aibaby were to come out, it’ll be just a usual conversation between normal people. Having those sirens, the arguments, the computer voice and the blast at the end (faded out into the beep) is what makes this audio piece awesome.
面白 i……….
That’s cool, I reckon, having those kind of question. With the added sound effect, that be awesome lol ^^.
