Y en qué mejor momento, pues hemos presenciado uno de los capítulos más terribles de la serie, donde todo cambia y comienza a desenvolverse todo el nudo dramático de la historia.

Neon Genesis Evangelion closes its first half with a pair of tightly edited showdowns, one that gives its secondary cast plenty of moments to shine, and one that foregrounds Misato Katsuragi. Ian and Joseph take this opportunity to re-examine Katsuragi, her backstory, her uncommon resonance with the millennial generation, and the small touches that make her maybe the best-written character in Eva. First, your hosts speculate at the hinted-at daily lives of “the bridge crew,” and evaluate the tight-but-hyperactive editing pace that makes Eva’s humor work - and why it only works in the animated medium. Finally, no breakdown of episodes 11 and 12 would be complete without unpacking the cataclysmic “Second Impact” that defines Eva’s worldbuilding Analysis: 13:38
Asuka comes to Japan! The definitive red haired tsundere shakes things up. We talk about the human genome, freudian stuff and the politics of a break up because of Misato x Kaji. Skip synopsis @ 8:23 Neon Genesis Evangelion vol. 4 Chapters 20 to 26 By Yoshiyuki Sadamoto Translation by Lillian Olsen Topics Differences from the anime and the Angels Asuka talk and the Freudian dynamic (Eva even have umbilical cords/power lines) Kaji x Misato romance, and the politics of a break-up. Other References Adam Israfel’s name Sperm donation Biorhythms Synopsis Asuka Langley Soryu makes her way to Tokyo 3, she is the second child to have piloted Eva before Shinji Ikari. On her way she is attacked by an Angel yet manages to defeat it. Shinji sees video of her fight and it becomes clear that she is extremely well trained and talented. After School Shinji spots a red-haired girl with his friends, Kensuke Aida and Toji. She is loud and boisterous, and a sore loser when it comes to playing crane claw games seen in arcades. The boys watch her until she starts accusing them of perving on her. The attention brings round a gang of thugs, the girl is ready to fight and does well defending herself but Shinji is weakest of the two and manages to get punched in the face. The police are called in and they all scatter. On his way to NERV, the base of the Evas. Shinji spots the red-haired girl and discovers that she is Asuka, the 2nd child. Misato Katsuragi’s ex-boyfriend arrives. Acting as Asuka’s supervisor he has secretly delivered a foetus like specimen known as ADAM, the first human, and the possible reason why the Angel attacked Asuka on her journey to Tokyo 3. ADAM now belongs to Gendo Ikari. As Rei’s Eva is being repaired it forces Asuka and Shinji to team up and fight the next angel. Their lack of team work results in their fight being a complete failure and the Angel duplicating itself into two. Misato puts the two of them into a room together and sets up a training regimen to hopefully sync both Asuka and Shinji’s biorhythms. Asuka tells Shinji that she has no father, and was chosen from a donated sperm by her mother, her raison d’etre is to pilot Eva, defeat the angels and to be acknowledged for it. She says it doesn’t matter if she hasn’t got a father, however, at night, Shinji hears Asuka crying and calling out to her mother in her sleep. Eventually Asuka’s jealous and competitive nature is enough to help inspire the sympathetic Shinji and the two succeed in defeating the angel.

Shinji Ikari runs away! Which gives us time to reflect on the thing all teens do. Which is to rebel! Skip us chewing the fat/synopsis @ 5:50 Theme music: 'Electro Hype' by Liam Bradbury. Neon Genesis Evangelion vol. 2 Chapters 7 to 12. By Yoshiyuki Sadamoto Adapted to English by Lillian Olsen, Fred Burke + Carl Gustav Horn Topics: First form of fan service/gratuity shot (Misato in shower p212) Comparing the depiction of Shinji compared to the Anime, he has a tough exterior but we get more thought bubbles and inner monologs. Sadamoto’s intention was to “shine a spotlight on Shinji’s soul” Shinji vs Misato – Why did Misato slap him? Is Shinji doing the right thing? And is it right for Shinji to live with Misato? Running away from home and generally rebelling against your parents. The action scene that involves a depleting battery. Synopsis: Shinji arrives in his new home, Misato Katsuragi’s apartment. He is introduced to her pet penguin, Penpen and her pig sty mess of a home. Her fridge is full of nothing but beer, she eats TV dinners and gives Shinji the majority of chores. Decided by a fair game of rock, paper, scissors of course! Shinji attends school and rumour quickly spreads that he was the pilot in the fight with the Angel. He is flattered by the attention but by confirming the rumours he exposes himself to criticism. A classmate, Toji, blames Shinji’s sloppy fight for putting his sister in hospital. During classroom breaks Toji beats up Shinji. In a surprise attack, a new Angel appears, merely 3 weeks after Shinji and Rei fought the last one. Toji and his friend Aida sneak out from their shelter to record video of the fight. During the fight, Shinji’s power line is cut and thus he is forced to fight with a battery backup. Toji and Aida almost die as Shinji’s Eva falls towards them. Shinji spots them and goes against Misato’s orders by opening the entry plug to the Eva. He allows Toji and Aida to sit beside him inside the cockpit for their own protection. Shinji refuses Misato’s order to retreat from the fight, he fights the Angel as the clock countdowns the battery. By the time the battery dies, the angel dies too. Afterwards Misato berates Shinji for his defiance, he remains detached and cavalier both about the situation and his relationship with Misato. She slaps him. Shinji runs away, he briefly meets Aida before he is apprehended by NERV agents. Aida envies the position of Eva pilot but Shinji, when given the choice, refuses to pilot Eva. Shinji is given his belongings and cast out of NERV. When Toji and Aida go to Misato’s home out of concern for Shinji, They tell Misato that although Shinji acts calm and nihilistic, he is still just a child. He will act like a spoilt brat when not appreciated. Misato runs out and stops Shinji before he gets on the train out of town. Shinji knows he has nowhere else to go and can only stay where he feels he is needed. Misato asks for Shinji to come back home.

This is it! The cultiest of cult 90's anime, the daddy of the sekai-kei genre! And maybe Elon Musks favourite anime? It kickstarted the popularity of angsty teen anime heroes. Skip synopsis talk @ 6:52 Special thanks to 'Eagle8burger' for our intro. 043: Neon Genesis Evangelion vol. 1 Chapters 1 to 6 By Yoshiyuki Sadamoto Adapted to English by Mari Morimoto, Fred Burke + Carl Gustav Horn Topics: The Western Anime boom, the days of collecting VHS tapes and trading with friends, which Evangelion’s first American dub came to us during that time. Shinji’s “daddy issues”, sometimes you just learn that you don’t need your daddy’s approval, sadly the main character, Shinji Ikari, has a long way to go. Rei Ayanami being possibly "albino" The concept of the “Angels” and the originality of how aliens are depicted in Neon Genesis Evangelion. The ending to chapter 6, which differs from the original anime and clues us in on things to come. Synopsis: In the year 2015, fifteen years after a global cataclysm known as the Second Impact, teenager Shinji Ikaritravels to Tokyo-3 at the behest of his estranged father, Gendo. While meeting with Misato Katsuragi, a woman who works for Gendo, the city is attacked by a giant creature known as an Angel. Misato takes Shinji to NERV, an organization headed by Gendo that has developed giant bio-mechanical mecha known as Evangelions. As Evangelion Unit-01's pilot, Rei Ayanami, is wounded, Gendo asks his son to take her place. Shinji decides to fight the Angel, named Sachiel, but panics when he first sees it. During the fight, Shinji makes Unit-01 furiously attack Sachiel, which self-destructs, causing minor damage to the Eva. Next day, Misato discovers that Gendo is not planning to live with Shinji. Therefore, she decides to become Shinji's legal guardian to keep him from being isolated. Pop culture and other references: The Christian cross is used to depict a flashy death state of the defeated Angel, over the next volumes there will be many allusions and references to not only Christianity but all Abrahamic religions, and even kabbalah. Group A10 is the largest group of dopaminergic cells in the ventral midbrain tegmentum of rodents and primates. The cells are located for the most part in the ventral tegmental area, the linear nucleus and, in primates, the part of central grey of the midbrain located between the left and right oculomotor nuclear. Not to be confused with T10 which is found in the human spine. “On the floor of the midbrain is the ventral segmental system, that neurobiologists call region A10. Cells soaked in dopamine, certain emotions are processed here: such as the thoughts of two lovers - or a parent and a child. And it is the synchronization of the threads and bundles of A10 that splice pilot and Eva together; to become one entity, to fight. In other words, the power of love drives this weapon of mass destruction.” – Yoshiyuki Sadamoto Instagram – weappreciatemanga.co.uk Twitter - @RealJamesFitton Website – Weappreciatemanga.com Email – Weappreciatemanga@gmail.com

Misato Katsuragi whirls to face Gendo Ikari. “Sir, the angel is approaching Tokyo 3! Should we deploy the Evas?” Even the harsh lighting of the computer screens seems oppressed by the silent darkness.
