damn that's a LOT to unpack in just one episode, straight up serious-analysis-needed territory
my hunch over the evas' name has been confirmed, and the one over rei's origin has been both strengthened and made a lot deeper than I originally thought
let's see how much I can sort everything out in my head till I watch the next episode this evening

hallelujah playing while asuka was getting - in her own words - brainfucked was the wildest tonal dissonance in the history of entertainment I think
also oh hey they pulled the spear out of adam, I'm actually surprised things didn't take a cataclysmic turn within the next five minutes
doubt that'll remain the case for long though
speaking of "what could possibly go wrong", a whole NINE evas getting produced in mass, shortly after at least two instances of an angel clearly showing the ability to take them over

rei being replaced by her third (and likely last) iteration and losing her recent memories was pretty sad, seeing how far rei 2 had gotten in terms of showing emotions and generally not being a mostly hollow yes-man
asuka seems to have completely gone off the deep end after the last episode's events
unit 01 seems to work surprisingly well all things considered, after it awakened yet again a few eps ago
the official confirmation that rei has been cloned to hell and back didn't hit me as hard as it was prob supposed to, the concept of the clones being a source of "spare parts" was interesting though
still a mystery what exactly happened with adam, but it's cool how its name and that of evas have been weaved together

lilin???? NERV's "adam" is actually lilith?????
also seems like that makes the final angel, we can only downhill from here huh

the insight into rei was interesting, it makes a lot of sense in hindsight that all she's been doing this whole time was waiting it out until the moment she wouldn't be needed anymore and she could die for good
it never looked like she enjoyed life anyway, aside from like two instances she actually felt something by talking with shinji
