If I were in Shinji's position

1)I would have groped Asuka's Breasts when she tried explain about heat expansion.

2)Made love with her all night like there's no tomorrow.

Asuka though arrogant is very sexy and adorable character.

This was the best episode to now, no doubts about it, I liked every bit of it. It made laugh so much, but in the same time we continue to see character build up. Only person who is really worrying me now is Rei - such a emotionless girl... It's not like I don't like her, but more like I wonder where she'll get to with this rate.

That dance was great you say?

Prfff...

LMG Gesu doing circle of death on any assault mech is a lot more impressive sight. Like a million times more.

Wat? You have no clue what I'm talking about? Then it's no wonder you call utter BS "great" and "epic."

I think this is my favorite episode of the series. I just realized something re-watching this. Why did they have to wait for the angle to regenerate to attack?

Yeah, my opinion about Asuka changed from this episode out. Before she was just some unbearable brat who made me want to rip my hair out.

Lmao this episode was homosexual, heterosexual, bisexual and transexual all at the same time. But still a good episode i guess :P
I don't get why people love the constant bickering though.. sure its funny the first few times but gets annoying at some point. I certainly hope it doesn't continue on like this but I expect to be dissapointed.

Ps: We need more Rei screen-time!

I guess Asuka and Shinji are identical in some way.

Thoughts from episode 09

Haha those Shinji's friends to taking pics of Asuka and stalking her. They should be warned Asuka can be really pain for them :DD

Kaiji wants to get his relationship back with Misato and his using Ritsuko too. Damn he plays with 2 women here. Kaiji is like perfect gentleman LOL When Shinji and Asuka couldn't get "7th Angel" destroyed. Whole NERV was angry haha. Misato getting all paperwork reminds me some scenes when Tsunade get's her work in Naruto.

OMG Shinji was so close to get his first kiss by Girl. Dude why didn't you just do it already. I wonder what Shinji were listening in his mp3 player. Asuka's crying and sleeptalking was sad. I wonder what happened to her mother? Guess we are going to found out that soon. That girl who said to Shinji you can't make girl cry was so right for that thing.

Training part for the battle was funny. Also when they played Twister and switched Tv channels so comedy moments. And those arguments in the end.

Best parts: Shinji's and Asuka's arguments in the end :DD and also that Dancing battle and awesome teamwork with EVA. That was also pretty interesting way to speed animation.

Great episode, Shinji and Asuka just have great chemistry and it really was apparent in this episode. Some great moments here like, of course, the awesome synchronized fight and the almost kiss where Asuka first mentions her mother. Also, the sexual tension between these two is highlighted here.

My favorite episode yet. Asuka may be a bitch but she a cute bitch.
Well, people always describes Shinji as annoying but hell, he's not as annoying as the millions of harem characters. HE HAD BALLSSSSSSSSSSS.

Balls to go for a kiss, heck if I were him, I'd be groping and coping a feel like no tommorow but I was proud of him. Just cause he's an improvement over other useless MCs.

The fight scene was 10/10, I was grinning the whole time. The arguement that ensued was also hilarious :3 . I get the feeling that Asuka likes Shinji for trying to kiss her :p


P.S
I don't know but this might be shallow of me. The fanservice in this older anime series is so tasteful. Is this a bad thing? I mean all that asuka fanservice was more arousing than all the Panty Shots that recent animes usually give.

I looooove~

Yeah the Kaji is pretty rapey...>P remember, No means no folks.

And yes the fanservice is pulled off much better. Its more subtle, more natural and less obvious-fantasy-camera-angle pornographic.

That was a fun episode! Though, the more I think about it the less it makes sense

a battle so predictable that it could be choreographed? That seems like a stretch to me. Also why should such an extreme level of synchronization be necessary? Seems like a cheap ploy to allow Shinji and Asuka to bond quickly and generate some sitcom-level antics. I wonder if Isanami will ever see some action... Maybe she and Shinji's dad and she are so close cause she was the guinea pig. Maybe that explains why she's so strange.

However, the last battle in this episode I think that was by far the best fight yet in the series. Plus it was presented in a unique way with music and everything.

Anyway, I'm glad this series isn't as deadly serious as I thought it would be.
