From Evangelion to Reality - The NERV App Saving Lives

For those of you who have seen the infamous Evangelion series, or maybe even just snippets from it, you're most likely aware of NERV, a special organization that was put together to fight the Angels.

 
 

While we know that they are the ones who created the Evangelions themselves, much of their presence is still a mystery. In the show, you sometimes don't even know if they are good or bad.

 
 

To one's surprise, NERV actually exists in the real world too. Well, kind of.

 
 

NERV Disaster Prevention is an app that literally saves lives. Unlike the show, the app doesn't focus on fighting Angels, but provides information about natural disasters happening in Japan at the fastest speeds. Whether it be heavy rains, typhoons, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, or earthquakes, the app sends you push notifications so you can stay as safe as possible.

 
 

It even sends you "Earthquake Early Warnings", which notify you a few seconds even before a big earthquake hits. The app also simply works as a weather app as well, even when there aren't any disasters taking place.

 
 

All in all, the NERV Disaster Prevention app is a must have for anyone in Japan. While at first it might seem like an app made for Evangelion fans, there is no weather app, no disaster app that is so effective, so fast at giving the user information about natural catastrophes around them. So if you don't have the app yet and you live in, or are staying in Japan, go get the app, and stay safe. You never know when a big earthquake is going to hit.
