UrsusArctos: The rockets in Eva-00's pylons are immensely cool, and it's one of those things I wish was put to use later in the series.
Dr. Nick: Indeed. This episode features several useful pieces of Eva equipment (extra pylon batteries, these boosters) that weirdly don't get much screentime elsewhere. The boosters especially could be life-saving, as firing them point-blank at your enemy when being pinned down is a classic mecha trope.
