Quuestion:

What the actual fuck was the purpose of the DDr machine? It sure as hell wasn't training the routine we see them using to fight the angel. How did Shinji even learn to backflip like that? I mean, with the Eva, you're in mental control of it, right? You can't do things you don't actually know how to do. In fact, with a lower than 100% synch ratio, shouldn't it be even harder to do things requiring delicate balance like that than it would be in your normal body? Not even mentioning the different balance an Evangelion would have compared to your normal body in the first place? I'm not saying the episode isn't good-- it was. It was no Zeruel episode, but it was good, at least for the character development. But it made zero fucking sense to me. Not even ONCE in the rest of the series do you see Evas prancing around like a couple of featherlight fairies like that. Shit was fucking weird. And kinda stupid.

Internal consistency is all well and good, but ti doesn't actually matter. The mechanical and sci-fi elements are subservient to the character and thematic elements. That much is consistent. You don't have to like it, but it's not a mistake in any sense of the word.

Asking what the in-universe point of an element is irrelevant if the element has a thematic justification.
>>
>>112637841
I... yeah, I guess. I can agree with that. I don't think it would have detracted from the episode to make the routine less... ballet-y, though.
>>
>>112636719
They have trained those moves for weeks and their mutual synch ration was incredibly high.
EVA can do flips.
If you remember, Bardiel did it when he possessed unit 04.
>>
>>112637884
Yeah, you're not wrong. Everything aside, I would bet that sequence was the way it was mostly because the animators and storyboards wanted to make something flashy and fun.

>>112637932
Nah, Bardiel just did the same forward flip that 01 did when it went berserk in the first (or maybe second) episode
>>
>>112637932
Bart was an Angel, not a human with a limited synch ratio, used to their own human bodies. Eva 03 also tossed out his fucking Extend-O-Arms (TM), which I'm pretty sure aren't standard issue on the Evas. It's an Angel thing.
>>
>>112638009
>Nah, Bardiel just did the same forward flip that 01 did when it went berserk in the first (or maybe second) episode
Yeah, but he did it. 01 did it also.
Also, EVAs moved incredibly fast and light when all three of them tried to stop that bomb angel.
They don't need to move that fast all the time because they have to think of tactics. Jumping and running around recklessly was unnecessary or just useless against most angels. This one required it and they did it.

Because she is strong and a bit of a bitch, it makes you want to break her. Dominate her. That is why she is the best.

Episode 20, mostly because Shinji talking to Yui was an incredible moment, also plugsuit mistake.
Or Episode 24, since they introduced Kaworu, who's basically a god an aware of it, his exchange with Rei is great and the shot of Unit 01 holding Kaworu gives me chills.

- a bitch
- slaps people for no reason
- can't read kanji
- wants to fuck kaji to prove that she is adult
- wants to fuck shinji because she jealous that misato fucks kaji
- almost strangle shinji when kissing
- tried to kill herself
- too stupid to defeat even one of EVA series
- pretend to be fake friends with everybody just to 'make things easier'

People are not perfect, everyone has their own traumas and problems, that's the point of Eva.
You either embrace those little mistakes every individual has or you reject society as a whole.
Asuka's not perfect, she's just a person.

The problem with Asuka is that she was supposed to be a genius and a great pilot, she was none ( at least during the original NGE)

>>112650145
She was booksmart and a capable pilot, but she was still a teenage girl and fucking caved once she started doubting herself. She bounced back, at least for a short time, in EoE

she finished university at the age of fourteen, that's genius level, and during the entire TV series was the most incompetent pilot by far.
And having issues is not an excuse because the other two weren't exactly issues-free.
>>
>>112650145
She was best girl, that's more than enough
>>
>>112652331
Kinda depends what she has a degree in, for all we know she majored in Afro-Cuban traditional music.
>>
>>112652331
Nah, she completely depended on being the most capable person but once Shinji "outdid" her she began to lose all of her resolve. Her booksmarts have nothing to do with that either, in the end she was still just a little girl like both Shinji and Misato said.

But that's the thing, Rei seemed more book smart than her and Asuka never showed any signs of being that good of a pilot ( better than the other two) during the Tv series. Her portrayal is a mess in that respect.

Rei was never shown to be anything other than emotionless, but we see how Asuka is very smart with her understanding of physics. And in her first appearance she displayed extraordinary control over her EVA compared to Shinji, it's just that he gradually surpassed her and Rei as the story went on.

I didn't get this shit. Second impact killed like two billion people, maybe another billion or two in the aftermath, so around half the earth's population. Why How does this result in them becoming so ass backwards that they no longer have proper education or psychologists that would look after their broken as fuck pilots? And yet they have enough knowledge to build fucking evas and transplant spirits into them or building human beings out of primordial soup.
>>
>>112643576
No, it's just symbolic for his isolation. They pop out every time someone tries to get closer to him, like when Asuka wants to kiss him or when he meets Kaworu.

I do hope you're not listening to the same 2 tracks over and over again though.

Think it's said that the EVA tech is basically bootleg stuff they just found and tampered with, nothing designed from the ground up.

Not really. He just needed a person to believe in him as a person and show love and respect outside just being an eva pilot. Asuka's character is largely built on the issues with her mother, and in EoE finding out that she was always there with her rbeathed more life into her than she ever had.
Which only made the gruesome death that much more heart wretching
