----------------------------------------
I was shocked to see this episode had no devoted thread!

So, what did you think of Zeruel, Shinji's moment of insanity and Kaji further endearing himself with all that talk of melons and convincing Shinji to pilot the Eva again? :)

That was a great episode, Zeruel had some pretty sick arms and I'm always down to see Unit 01 go berserk.

Shinji runs away once again and had no choice but to come back and pilot the Eva again. Rei and Asuka didn't stand a chance like last episode. Too bad they don't get their chance to shine when Shinji was gone. Wonder how they gonna stop the awakened Eva. Eating Angels is pretty hardcore.

ahhh, badass eva is badass.
eating angels... i wonder how it tastes... maybe chicken? pork?
shinji's resolve was pretty much destroyed with eva 02's head flying in... but then again,. whose head wouldn't go crazy after seeing your crush's eva's head flying off...
kaji is awesome too.... can't believe he can talk so smooth at the verge of death xD
also, rei :(
nuuu, she died :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :(
now... what will happen with the awakened eva "angel" copy.... also, OMG, eva has eyes and teeth, and he/she/it looks like a monkey

Look! That's an Eva! Wait, that's an Angel! No, that's a monkey!
So Eva was never a human creation, I presume. It's a living(?) being. And now it's out of control. As a basic instinct, it'll want meat Angels. And Adam is an Angel. This is getting interesting.

That was the scene that got me to watch this anime and it was worth watching it thus far.

Best episode IMO. Really gives you an idea of how unpredictable these things are, and how Misato and crew must feel when they see things like this happen. Unit 01 does make a damn cool monkey.

So cool. I think i'm finally starting to really like NGE. Previous ep was also cool, but unimaginable happened - Suzuhara survived... But instead, we got another sacrifice, Rei, and this time it looks like for real.=] And all thanks to that emo kid Shinji Hikari. He's simply awesome...

This series has taken such a leap forward in the action/intensity department, and I'm loving it. Every EVA massacre scene adds this chilling yet simultaneous badass factor.

What do you mean monkey Eva? The Evangelions are clones of Adam(except for unit 1) and contains a human soul, so they are not really robots, they're cyborgs in a sense

Jesus mother of God, how can a series turn from a boring slice of life to an epic organic robot going berserk and starting feeding from an Angel like it's a chicken or something.

I hope Rei isn't dead, she's the only good female character in this series (no offence lol)

Holy shit. I was waiting for this moment to happen. I knew for the fact that something was going to happen when Shinji lost maneuvers to Eva-01. I was like "Oh come on awaken already go go go!" and then after a brief moment. I finally got it, the awaken version of Eva-01. I wasn't expecting it to be a gorilla though. Also, why did the yellow-hair scientist said "She's finally awaken now." Was she referring to Eva-01 being a girl or was she referring to Shinji's mother? I still think Shinji's mother is inside of Eva-01, lol.

I was expecting Shinji to come back since he just can't leave NERV. It's probably because his only relative is there, his father. He tried to leave once but he just can't do it. Well, his arrival made him looked like a hero though since noone couldn't pilot Eva-01 but himself.

So what about Rei? Is she dead? For some reason I'm not worried about her death. I don't know. I'm just feeling that there are many Rei's and that this Rei was only one of that many Rei's. XD

We all know Rei's a copy of other Rei's. She's a mass production human-being pilot prototype.

That being Shinji's mother in there sounds about right. And I think she's mad that she got stuffed into an angel to try and make the good.

And I can't stop loving Commander Ikari. He sees every possible angle and scenario. That also being his biggest disadvantage, you can't know everything.

1 last thing, Who/What is SEELE?

Holy shit...Asuka getting her arms and head chopped off was rather brutal, same with Rei trying to suicide bomb with a goddamn nuke. And on top of all that, Unit 01 goes fully berserk and freaking slaughters and eats the Angel. That scene--actually the entire episode was pretty horrific.

I guess an Eva really is just an angel with a human spirit inserted into it--in this case Shinji's mom. Damn...nice twist.

Kaji was also rather awesome this episode.

Things are REALLY heating up now, and I can't wait to see how this all unfolds. Probably just gonna marathon the rest tonight.

So.. Evas are altered Angels? Maybe copies of Adam?
Or..atleast, I think it's clear that they're living creatures.
I mean. That Eva ate the Angel. :o
Surely, if they were created, neither the yearn/need to eat Angels, nor even the ability to consume would've been implemented on mechanisms made to fight.
It'll be interesting to see how Evas were tamed(?), and why Unit01 awakened.
It seems everytime it goes berserk, Shinji is in a state of acute distress and sees the image of his dead mother.
So, I speculate that his mom and the Second Impact.. and Adam? has something to do with the Evas.
I wonder how this will all tie in together.
Interesting episode. Definately a major advance in plot.

Shitson.

Shinji's moment of bassass was overshadowed by the Eva evolving and casting off it's mecha form.
Seems very few people in NERV actually know who they are working for.
