thewayneiac: Ikari has a lot of confidence in his shatter-proof glass. The lights fly directly at him and he doesn't even flinch.
MDWigs: He has nerves of steel.
HeWhoPostsStuff: Well, considering that that same type of glass (presumably) has previously shielded himfrom much more threatening assaults on his person (as we'll see in a future episode), methinks a batch of lights wouldn't shake him too much…
Reichu: I love that smug smile… obviously directed at Shogouki.
HeWhoPostsStuff: Methinks that's the point when Gendo “really” knows he's gonna win as long as he can get Shinji into EVA-01. He knows for sure that she's willing tofight even if Shinji isn't, and that's all he needs for now… and for most of the rest of the series, really.
