  crossing over with Power Rangers any time soon.

  Different genres.  Entirely too different.

  Ki blasts and incredible martial artists just don't fit
  in the Evangelion universe, just my opinion.

  Yeah, I've read 'For the sake of the Children'.
  Nice polish, fair plotting, but I just don't buy the
  setup.  If you apply Ranma 1/2 rules to the EVA universe,

I'd have to disagree with you on one point.  I believe that any two series
can be crossed over; even Evangelion and Ranma.  Perhaps a viable story has
not been written yet, but that doesn't make it impossible.

The premise of most crossovers, in fact, most Anime that I have seen are not
very feasible.  (A guy who changes sex by means of water???  Giant Angels
walking around trying to destroy the earth???  Ya right...)  I'm being
facetious, of course, but my point is that a hard-to-believe premise doesn't
make the stories any less enjoyable, IMO.  Perhaps, Mr Wong, Mr. Lee, and
myself haven't found the right formula yet for a Eva/Ranma cross, but it
could happen; and besides, in the end, we're all just having fun.  ^_^
