The series was great!!!... up to episode 16. Then...

---This will be full of spoilers, d'oh!---


--Spoilers--
...With Touji's lose of limbs, all the philosophical stuff, and "you give it meaning" things, it lost it's charm for me.
The episode where Rei 2 dies is good too, but all the mental problems the characters endure was too much for my happy-and-positive mind. :p
Don't even mention the introspection. That's full of inside-serious problems of the creator, Hideaki Anno. And The End of Eva... eek... :rolleyes:

Insert philosophical phrase here. Yeaaaaah right.

Toji only lost one limb. A leg. His arm is fine, it's just the angle that the scene is shown that makes it look otherwise. In the Manga this is more easily noticable.

I'm worried that Manga will screw up the Movie DVDs. Almost everything they touch nowadays looks like crap on DVD, sadly. :(

End of Eva is great for about an hour, then it gets painful to watch, especially if you have to read the subtitles like I do.

For some reason, I really like the song they play near the end. "Kom Susser Todd"

It's just a beautiful song.
