DeepL translation of video description:
McDonald’s Japan is currently running its first collaboration campaign with the popular anime “Neon Genesis Evangelion,” which will celebrate its 30th anniversary in 2025.
The second collaboration includes three types of burgers: “Zakkiri Potato & Thick Beef Delicious Garlic Mayo,” “Mexican Cheese Chicken,” and “Cheese Double Teriyaki,” which are made with an original bun inspired by the “A.T. Field” that appears in the anime and are characterized by their large volume. Evangelion Burgers will be available at McDonald’s restaurants nationwide for a limited time starting January 6, 2025.
Will they have Shinji Sauce?
It’s the mayo.
Get the happy meal Shinji

My Japanese is rusty, is that a wordplay with idiot/burger?
Yup. Baka (stupid) -> baagaa (burger)
Can it be paired with orange Fanta?
First collaboration is lottery entry for sales of “McDonald’s × Evangelion Value Set Figures” which will be in stores from Jan 20, 2025.
I can see a new version of the the ED:
Fly me to Mc D’s
And let me order a large fries
McFlurrys are best
with shakes and apple pies
My Quarter Pounder, super size
McNuggets, Szechuan Sauce please
Rei is falling/spinning on the right, as before, but she’s chasing a Big Mac under her head…
I thought Japan had rather strict rules on advertising food products, particularly with scale. This ad has the burgers depicted at all sorts of sizes, from hand, to 3 storey house, to football stadium.
I remember seeing a recent ad for noodles that used photorealistic depictions of their product in the hands of anime characters.
