Was Tohji creamating his sister in that short scene? This is getting heavy. Edit: I wrote the earlier comment at the end of episode 17. What the Fuck is this show?

So many thoughts on these two but that flying eyeball will haunt my dreams

Omg Nick's cartoon dog joke and that whole bit killed me 😭♥️

I think I read somewhere that a sex scene in a future episode (heard offscreen) was what crossed the line for Japanese TV standards & practices. The fines GAINAX received contributed to the substantial loss of budget towards the end of the series. Does this ring a bell for anyone else?

The laugh that Heather gives Matt or Nick after they say something that actually touches on something that happens in the future is my favorite.

Comedy podcasts have really ruined my brain. Matt said 911 and it was like I had the second sight. All I could do was say "oh no... oh no" as I waited in terror for the Second Impact joke to come. Fantastic pod as always, y'all are the best!

I left Tokyo in October of 1995. Only just watching this show now in the year of our Lord 2022. Weird. What a show, what a podcast.

Watching this again and listening to Matt and Nick's first reactions are solid gold. 👌🏻 Welcome to the being psychologically traumatized by Eva club! Episode 18 literally broke me when I saw it as a teenager.

Great set of episodes, glad I started watching

Jason Reichert

I humbly request a supercut of the little moments of Heather singing Fly Me to the Moon

Can we get Mary Laws to guest on an episode because I know she's watched Eva with Heather at some point? 💜

** watches episodes 19/20 ** What the actual f… ?

Surprised to see how many people here are watching for the first time. That’s so exciting!!!

Heather, thank you for your bewildered kindness to those of us who are listening faithfully each week, but not watching along. I'll scrape together the time to source the show and sit down and watch it... some day, maybe once school starts back for my kids... I'll catch up on playing all the We Play You Plays then too, surely, eventually... but in the meantime, I LOVE hearing y'all's conversations while I'm working on stuff!

You guys, this Eva podcast is so great! My husband’s watching the series through for the first time with me along with the podcast and we are loving every second! Like Heather, I’ve been a big fan since Eva came out in the 90’s and it’s so hard sometimes to talk about without spoiling anything, especially at this point in the series! At least we don’t have to wait as long to watch the next episodes as I did back then, waiting months to buy the next VHS after a cliffhanger ending like ep. 18 was agonizing!

> Nick and Matt do the goofiest bit you've ever seen Heather: "I mustn't run away..."

Idk if this has been discussed in other forums, but at the end of this episode it hit me for the first time. Both times Shinji hurt Toji (counting injuring his sister), he wasn’t in control of the Eva. It went berserk the first time and was piloted by the dummy plug the second.

Kevin Weber

I want to have a beer with you all talk eva!

rootfifthoctave

it struck me watching ep18 that it could be thematically about war and war crimes? but i don't know enough about japan/US history to point out specifics. just things like framing the angel against the red sun, US effectively getting nuked (in an "accident" orchestrated by gendo maybe?), shinji saying "there's a kid in there like me," the dummy plug'd unit 01 making an atrocity of the angel, that sort of stuff.

Anthony Regina

I’m listening to this weeks late, but I do want to point out that the study Nick brings up about spoilers was based on a short story and was very flawed regardless. Don’t spoil movies for people, please.
