GotWoot Story Contest - Preliminaries - Round 3

The story works as it is Saph. The problem I see is that it can't be used as a legal story because of all the copyright issues. I know that wasn't part of the rules or anything, but I think that an original story should not use other works to make itself better.

Heck, I voted for it because its good and fun... but making the character speak like Keima from TWGOK or act like Okabe from Stein's Gate, while funny, is plagiarism. Even the title takes advantage of the recent Evangelion movies.

Making a character speak or act like another character from another story isn't plagiarism. You can't copyright a personality.

The main character said 'I can see the ending' and pretended to speak with his secret agent. Don't tell that isn't copying Keima and Okabe

I think you're mistaking this story for a genre that it was never intended to be. From what I understand, the author never intended realism (correct me if I'm wrong, author). This story is a parody, and as such it follows different writing conventions. The characters are more social constructs made from an anime culture, and their interactions are a commentary on that culture.
