| Im not fan of Asuka types characters. Loud Tsunderes i guess? So as characters for now I dont like her but as a pair with Shinji I thibk it works she makes him more human.Not kust her of course Miasato,his friends etc. But she makes him shown more emotions which is good. Episode was fummy i really enjoyed it but I hope see more Rei |
| those darn kids! how embarrassing! |
| One of my favorite episodes in the show, i love the dynamic between asuka and shinji, and it may not seem but this episode tells a lot about the characters, like asuka and most importantly misato with her relatonship with kaji. Asuka calling her mom while sleeping is incredibly sad, knowing the past of every Eva pilot. i don't know why but i think that the only character in the show that i honestly don't like is kaji. |
| ''Touch the darkness inside me'' |
| The amount of foreshadowing in this episode in genuinely incredible. Spoilers for the rest of the series and The End of Evangelion: |

Take care of yourself |
| This was kinda boring, I'm not quite vibing with this type of episode. The ones before Asuka's introduction were much better. Manga was also better by this point (as far as I remember), and definitely less annoying. |
| Great episode!! I love them so much (: Wish we could see more of Rei tho |
 |
| Sync battle was iconic as I remember, even better now recognising the lightning kick from Gunbuster |
 |
| I loved this episode, and I think asuka is a good addition to the show, since it may help to relief the tension and serious environment with gag comedy, but honestly, is kind of annoying, so immature, even for a 14yo girl. But I can’t deny that the synchronized fight was awesome, and the argue between Shinji and Asuka was funny. My favorite part is when shows them doing their daily activities synchronized but still fighting each other, and still wearing the same clothes lol (it’s just me or male characters, especially young ones, have very feminine features? Like the body shape of Shinji) |
 |
| episode silly and peak |
  me candies:        |
| this show better improve , i like the character interactions but the show seems kinda episodic and i end up being lost in my world, plus i hope rei gets more screentime , asuka is nice tho |
| So, I finished the series, as well as End of Evangelion. I have to say, this was by far my favorite episode. In a story filled with the themes of loneliness, self-doubt, death and rebirth, Shinji and Asuka fighting Israfel truly seems like the only real victory in this series. It's not tainted by the other things that happen in the story, and feels good and deserved. The choreography and soundtrack was masterfully done. Shinji and Asuka drop the pretenses that they have of themselves and show to truly be able to achieve great things. I also loved seeing how proud everyone was watching them fight. Everyone had a smile on their face, even Asuka. The bickering was funny aside from y'know... Shinji being Shinji... If I could rate higher than a 5 I would have given this episode 6 stars, |
| pretty funny ep, I like seeing Shinji and Asuka bicker over everything lol |
 Monthly AWC 2026 Something coming here soon (maybe) |
| Why can't Rei and Asuka do it together instead of Shinji? I hate that class rep bitch and those 2 idiots. Shinji is disgusting, trying to assault a sleeping girl. |
    WATCH KANAN-SAMA! |
| great episode lots of funny moments lol. its times like these where i forget that shinji is also a 14 year old annoying little boy. still not sure how i feel about asuka, shes cute but kind of annoying. the battle failed lol. |
| I'm watching Eva with a friend, and she hates this episode, I guess. I really liked it, though. It developed Asuka's character and her relationship with Shinji. It successfully shows the complex weirdness of moving from childhood to adult in terms of sexual romance. And the scene at the end was paced beautifully with the musick. Even the silly dancing training was fun. |
| really liked this one, read the manga chapters at the same time watching the anime. there's a quite a lot of difference between them, hearing about Asuka's family situation in manga made me considerate about her attitude. anime didn't include that part at all. they've just added a sneaky kiss scene there. the synchronized dancing looked all goofy with mechas but it's aight. lol |
 |
| dude actually just has immaculate rizz |
| I hate Kaji so much. "Wall of Jericho," famous for falling lol :) I hope the relationship between Shinji and Asuka keeps on improving. Rei has had surprisingly little screentime in the previous few episodes. Hope that changes as well. |
 |
| Shinji, wtf? Why were you trying to kiss someone that was asleep??? That wasn't weird to anyone? Great... Now Misato is starting to become unlikable, when she was likable before. She's becoming a clone of Asuka. And at least Asuka is 14, so her brattiness and annoying personality makes sense. Asuka is pretty much just an insecure kid that's trying to feign confidence. Misato is a grown ass woman acting this way. |
