	019	Misato fastens the front hook of her bra. (She has a scar.)	dzzthink: This theme of sacrifice and responsibility is quite significant in this episode. Misato carries literal and mental scars from the events of the impact. We also get the feeling that her relationship and co-habitation with Shinji isn't just out of affection or maternal instincts but rooted in her previous experiences with her father. It could be survivor's guilt but like Shinji, she carries the obligation (or burden) of her father's work. As a result, she imposes her own mentality and ambitions to Shinji. Perhaps it can be seen as good and bad, since she wants to help Shinji and allow him to mature, but at the same time there is a sense of hypocrisy as she mainly wants to fulfil her own issues.
