Episode 5: knew 5 minutes in that I was going to like the way this show continues to play with time. It's not trying to obfuscate things for mere delay (at 22 minute it can't afford to,) but tell a dramatic story that way. Also, good god do they actually GET cliffhangers!

Episode 8: The sense of scale in this show continues to impress, largely cuz it's constantly trying to think about how to use that scale creatively. Seeing the EVA hop on top of battleships is precisely that sort of fun so many others dont think of. Also, my god, the horniness.
