ASUKA:“It's supposed to be a secret! But I'll tell you anyway! Just for you!”
dzzthink: The episode starts almost within Asuka's mind as if we are walking through a door into her subconscious, something that she has hidden from others throughout the series. The similar sunset-like/LCL-orange lighting is reminiscent of Shinji's dream of being on a train after being abandoned by his father.
