Some consider the Trap Universe/Death Ocean to be that. Though they broke through THOSE, you can never be sure if they really got out of the Trap Universe.

The mind transcends the body. It's also a little cold because of that. Please get it a blanket. I wish I could read your mind, I can barely read mine. "Skynet begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, August 29th. At 2:15, it begins rolling up characters."
"Just what do you think the moon up in the sky is? Everyone sees that big, round shiny thing and thinks there must be something round up there, right? That's just silly. The truth is much more awesome than that. You can almost never see the real Moon, and its appearance is death to humans. You can only see the Moon when it's reflected in things. And the things it reflects in, like water or glass, can all be broken, right? Since the moon you see in the sky is just being reflected in the heavens, if you tear open the heavens it's easy to break it~"

[spoiler=Spoilers for Neon Genesis Evangelion]Plus, he made a thousand 14 year old clones of his wife in order to have sex with them.[/spoiler]
However, I think the most awesome, non-super-powered, human villain ever is whoever wrote the last episode of NGE. Seriously...
Oh, that's standard Gainax procedure to give people a mind-gangrape on their last episode. It's a tradition for them, almost. That wasn't a mindfuck. That was Shinji talking to himself for an hour and then...everyone's happy for some reason. AKA, they lost their budget. |

It's from the Wiki, so feel free to disregard based on that, but... Episode 16 marked a distinct shift that would characterize the second half of Evangelion as being more psychological than action or adventure.[36] This change in emphasis was partly due to the development of the story, but also partly because by this point, production had begun running out of funding and failing to meet the schedule; this collapse has been identified by at least one Gainax employee as the impetus for Evangelion's turn into metafiction: |

The author himself mentioned during the manga that making Evangelion was like therapy to him, as he was going through a tremendously bad phase of his life back then. Therefore, the whole deal with making what was initially an action series into one based off drama and characters with more screws loose than an android hooker was likely part of what he had in mind from the start.
Also, as mentioned before, Gainax traditionally makes last episodes that make you go "WTF?!", so Evangelion's ending was not that surprising.
Oh yeah, and the whole people suddenly go happy for whatever reason thing? That was all in Shinji's mind. The movie assumes crap hit the fan pretty heavily by the end of the series.

Yeah, I got all that.
The thing I was referencing was the (almost) complete lack of animation in the last (two) episode(s).

I asked my ex if she would be willing to dress like Princess Peach while we have sex. I was disappointed. My new goal is to find a woman willing to dress like Princess Peach while having sex. Or at least, not laugh when I tell her that. |
