Magma Diver and Angel Angel Revolution are both great for that awkward Shinji x Asuka banter. Her haughty demeanor really hits that sweet spot of "I'm a girl and SOOOO much more mature than YOUUUUUU" teen rage. Is Asuka the Tsundere queen mother or is that more like Akane?

FilthyImp posted:Is Asuka the Tsundere queen mother or is that more like Akane? Akane is the patron saint. Honestly, I don't think Asuka was a tsundere for the series. In Rebuild it's definitely there, and I know fans have given her that tsundere label through discussions and fanfiction and such, but if she's anything she's a ton of tsun with little to no dere. I hate myself for answering this question.

Episode 5 is probably going to be the big hurdle, what with Shinji falling on top of naked Rei.

Redirecting the power grid to one friggin weapon was a couple of scenes that I glossed over when I was 13. When I rewatched it, and on every rewatch since (including Rebuilds), it is always so cool to see. It scratches the same itch that Shin Godzilla did, in that otherwise mundane logistics and planning pulls off a otherworldly result you couldn't think possible. Anno has this weird knack for that stuff.

Wow I was hearing that song in my head before I played the video, really catchy tune. Also wow I never noticed how obviously CGI the little people are in that clip, and presumably other parts of the movie. They look like lego people or something.

Fair enough. I was guessing that the question was taking into account the anticipation of Netflix putting the series available in April, which would allow for the potential new watcher to binge it.

Nah, the first few episodes (up through Ramiel) are very much in the dark and moody vein. It's the episodes between Asuka showing up and Sahaquiel that are all silly and anime-ish.

Ever notice how you never see Kaworu and Pen Pen in the same room together? Even in EoTV, Pen Pen pops up in Instrumentality but Kaworu himself doesn't.

One of my favourite little scenes is in episode 17 when Fuyutski and Gendo are on the train. It starts as just a nice little bonding moment but quickly segues into discussing Eva 04's destruction. To paraphrase: Fuyu: ...This was a major catastrophy Gendo:It's of no consequence. The S2 Engine data is still in Matsushiro Fuyu: But the Committee is in a total panic! Gendo: Of course they're panicking. It wasn't scheduled Fuyu: laughs. Gendo: scenarios not depicted in the dead sea scrolls can occur. This should teach the old men a lesson So much happening here: -Fuyutski is horrified at the loss of life, Gendo dismisses it as irrelevant -Gendo actually cracks a joke, the only time he ever does so, showing how close he is to Fuyutski is compared to everyone else. -Both acknowledge that the only reason SEELE cares is that they didn't plan for it. I also used to think that Gendo's comment that Unit 4s destruction will teach SEELE a lesson is a hint that Gendo sabotaged unit 4 but on reflection thats a bit of a stretch. Still shows that Gendo holds disdain for SEELE.

Ak Gara posted:Well if he succeeds, he's not wrong. I don't think instrumentality would apply to them since they were plunged into another dimension/vanished without a trace. Regardless, Even if Gendo knew that instrumentality applies to the dead the audience doesn't and the contrast against Fuyutski is still effective.

And then I'll mourn the tragic passing of whoever made that decision and Tiffany Grant's subsequent imprisonment.
