Yeah there are some similar shots in Evangelion and the second rebuild movie (specifically the fight with Sahaquiel, the one falling from space they have to catch). I don’t know if both your example and mine are pulling inspiration from the Lupin film intentionally or if all 3 are referencing hurdling. There definitely seems to be a Superman style, heroic sense of “leaping tall buildings in a single bound.” The Lupin clip and your example seem to play it for laughs, contrasting these extreme feats the characters are performing with why they are actually trying to perform them (e.g. in the OPM case, moving at incredible speeds and jumping great distances just to try to get a good deal on groceries) while Eva plays it more straight (emphasizing the power and speed of the Eva’s and their effects on the built and natural landscape).
