Casetify, the company that makes creative phone cases and accessories, has teamed up with anime studio Khara for a Neon Genesis Evangelion collaboration sent from heaven to destroy my bank account. That includes the perfect (and, admittedly, highly unnecessary) AirPods case based on the EVA-01, which reimagines your standard case as an access plug that plugs into the back of the device’s exoskeleton. Yes, it’s an AirPods case caseand it is hefty.
But Casetify’s Neon Genesis Evangelion collab, amusingly titled “PROJECT CSTF: PROTECTION from IMPACT,” doesn’t end there. There are cases for smartphones and tablets featuring all your favorite Eva pilots (Shinji, Asuka, Rei, Mari and Kaworu);
A phone holder and MagSafe charging cable, modeled after the Evangelion unit’s docking stations and umbilical cables, respectively.
There’s even a slightly puffy Sachiel phone case:
For the Evangelion fan craving something more subtle, there’s also a range of phone cases featuring the Seele and Nerv logos, as well as an “Emergency” battery pack and a case featuring the bold kanji from the anime’s title cards.
from Casetify Neon Genesis Evangelion collaboration goes live on July 20, and fans of Eva can sign up for the waitlist on the official website. The site has preview pricing on some items, including the Evangelion Test Type-01 collectible AirPods Pro Case ($122), Evangelion Umbilical Cable Magnetic Wireless Charger ($52), Evangelion Charging Dock with the Umbilical Cable Magnetic Wireless Charger ($122 ), and an Evangelion rope phone strap ($52). So not cheap.
