bridge in front of the Eva's face .Misato “But it even took Rei Ayanami seven months just to
synchronize with her Eva. This child just got here — it's impossible
for him to do it!”Ritsuko “All he has to do is sit inside and try. We don't expect
more than that.”
Keisuke-kun: (Re: [#cut206 C-206] ) Again here.
Reichu: Indeed, the interplay between Ritsuko, Misato, Shinji, and EVA-01's eyes helps make this a very compositionally sound shot. The space is divided up in a very harmonious fashion, although I'm sure the virtual symmetry helps.
Gundampilotspaz: This part really illustratesthe difference between Misato and Ritsuko. Misato is being far too emotional about the situation, whereas Ritsuko is being far too cold.
MDWigs: Also, here Misato refers to how long Rei took to synch with EVA-00. This, combined with other evidence we are given later, seems to indicate that she only became an “official” pilot and started testing in 2014.
felineki: Sho'sexo-dentures look a bit more pointy than usual in this shot…
