WOW YOU JUST CAN'T BELIEVE AN EPISODE LIKE THIS COULD EVER EXIST. I MEAN IT WAS SO GOOD AND FUNNY AT THE SAME TIME IT'S ALMOST UNBELIEVABLE. LOL FUCK MAN BEST EPISODE AS OF YET.

Seriously this episode was outstanding and excellent. Not only it proved that Evangelions's awesomeness increases when working together, it also proved that Shinji and Asuka has a chance to be a great couple. I mean the quarrel at the end, oh my how I loved Asuka and Shinji back there especially when Asuka was like "l0l0l0l you tried to kiss me while I was sleeping." and Shinji was like "Aw that's mean you were pretending to be sleeping." and Asuka was like "Ohoho I was just testing you, so you did try to kiss me." Lmfao priceless man, priceless. So Rei was the only one needed to make the couple's synchronization perfect.

Oh and I can't leave that elevator scene between Kanji or something and Misato. If that elevator didn't open, they would have made love I could have sworn.

It was fun to watch. Especially Shinji and Asuka arguing in the end of the episode. It was just... awesome :)
I finished this episode with a better impression of Asuka than I had by the end of the previous one but I still think Rei is better.

Funniest episode yet. I was expecting to hate Asuka in this show but my god she and Misato are my favorite female characters as of now. Rei seems to be bland and emotionless. Hope that changes later on.

I don't really understand why everyone likes Asuka so much. She's a good addition to the show but she's still a bitch and, in my opinion, not a very likable character.

Why was it Shinji's fault that Asuka got mad? He still had his headphones on for f***s sake!

Synchronized fighting at the end was pretty interesting and one of the better fights so far.

Shinji has a penis thats why.

They are 14 years old. The one who told Shinji to apologize is also 14 years old.
Very very realistic situation. Teenage female gets angry with the male teen, the male teen eneds to apologize.

===

Loved this episode.
The ballet.
The synchronized speech.
Shinji and the Penguin being in sync to get to the washroom.
Shinji's friends and the class rep realizing Shini and Asuka live in the same apartment.
The fucking ballet fight.

A perfect mixture of sexual tension, humour, action, and Penguins.

I actually like Asuka because of the fact she's unlikable. Well, that and other things that haven't come into play at this point.

Poor Misato, her feelings being played around with..

And Asuka was kinda annoying in this ep.

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."

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~
