In which two American cousins begin an extended discussion of the famous anime Neon Genesis Evangelion, timely for it's recent release on Netflix. Introductions are made, an extended debate on pronunciation is begun (and not concluded), and several accusations are made internally regarding expertise and qualifications for this enterprise. Nonetheless, the first episode, "Angel Attack," begins! Intrepid listeners can follow along with the episode as we announce the time-stamps of our pauses with fairly good consistency!
Highlights:
- Extended discussion of the intense world building that occurs in the first 15 seconds of the show.
- The unlikely origins of Shinji's polaroid of Misato, and the starting of their (adjective not found) relationship.
- Successful avoidance at dumping lore on every single character that appears and extending this episode by an additional hour.
- Appreciation for the "tell and show" storyboarding style of the show.
- Swears are kept to a minimum, making this episode a great watch with say your 6 year old niece who you want to deeply confuse.
