Incisivis: It's also interesting to see that the layout of theepisode lends itself more to focus on the major characters and military personel, both of whom are removed from direct combat until EVA-01's launch at the end of the episode. As a result, a lot of the action in the middle of the episode has a very impersonal, mechanized feel. Cuts [#cut092 092-099] and [#cut127 127-132] are examples of this.
