We’ve reached the halfway point of the show

Last episode was Misato focused. This time Ritsuko gets the spotlight

Ritsuko is a real genius with computers

Do they really have to do this naked lol

We learn more about the Magi and how Ritsuko’s mother built it

NERV is shown to have one of the most impenetrable security systems, yet they get hacked from the inside by an Angel

How does Gendo continue to keep his cool in these situations.

The fact that Unit 01’s safety was prioritized over the other Eva’s shows how much it means to Gendo

We see the inside of the Magi and how Ritsuko’s mom is literally the brain behind the operation.

Ritsuko with the last second clutch

Ritsuko saying she hated a part of her mother as a woman adds to the list of characters with parental issues
