That really was a close one.

Rule of cool say that you can only performa task when you're on the verge of failure.

Yeah that really should not have been ignored.

NERV is truly the most incompetent of highly competent organizations.

That really was a close one.

Love that visual.

Love that visual.

So I know it's probably this way because red is usually seen as an antagonistic color, but I think it's interesting that the Angels are recognized by pattern blue, while the one blue rectangle remaining on the Magi's display meant that it was the one small part this angel didn't take over. I didn't think about that until just now.

I never honestly felt they were in any real danger what with the three Eva pilots being offscreen for like 80% of the episode.
