EPISODE REVIEWS

it's pure tension from start to finish all in this episode. shinji's shaking, rei's got his back, and that sniper duel is the most stressful thing eva's done yet. the payoff is worth every second watching this. also rei finally smiles. you'll know when.

After dealing with the angel Ramiel in Operation Yamashita, Shinji frantically pries open Rei’s cockpit, mirroring how his father once saved her. He cries, relieved that she is alive.

More intense here. The episode balances emotion with action nicely, and the stakes feel real. It keeps you invested while slowly revealing more about the world and the characters.
