Neon Genesis Evangelion

Just as the English episode titles "Rei I" and "Rei II" suggest, the spotlight is on Rei Ayanami, the pilot of Unit-01, in Epsidoes Five and Six. Episode Five skillfully depcits Shinji, who becomes interested in Rei and tries to get cloers to her and her subtly wavering emotions. Rei Ayanami is a girl who does not try to dispay her emotions for the most part. She does not even bat an eye when someone her own age of the opposite sex sees her naked, but with matters concerning Gehdou alone, she shows some stirring of emotions. The succesful activation experiement of Unit-00 is likely due to the fact that she brought the pair of glasses, which symbolizes the bond between him and her, into the etnry plug with her. The failure of Unit-00's activation experiment 22 days ago was caused by her psychological instability. RItsuko has some idea of what might have been the reason for that, but she denies it, saying, "No, that can't be it." Was the reason she thought of something to do with the connection between Unit-00 and Rei or possibly something to do with Gendou? The housing development that Rei lives in is in the oldewr parts of town of New Tokyo-3. The area is subdued to be redeveloped and the building on the other side of the road has already been demolished. There is a lot of attention to detail converning the depiction of her living space. There are numerous advertisements left stuck in her door, and the entrance has countless tracks where she has gone inside without taking her shoes off. According to the premise, on the chest in the room are medical books on such topics as psychology and genetics. Rei apparently reads these intently, and they are marked with tags. In the first half of Part A. Shinji and Misato visit a simple faility built on top of the Fourth Angel that was defeated in Episode Three. When seen from directly above, it is roughly the same shape as the Angel's silhouette, and under the four prefab buildings in the senter is the body, and there are flagella under the two to the left and three to the right. Next to this prefab facility is the while outline of the pisition Unit-01 fell in from the fight with the Fourth Angel, just as if it were some site of a car accident. This realistic depiction is very much like Evangelion. They Storyboards were done by Kiichi Jinme, a.k.a. Junichi Sato, the same as for Episode Four. Rei's girlishly delighted look when Gendou appears and the comedy during the dinner scene where Misato pours curry into her ramen are disctinctively Jinme's storyboard style. The ecentric way the cutsw were split up when Shinji visits Rei's apartment was also memorable. Shunji Suzuki's animation work is also clear, and the quality of the visuals is also high The trio of Satsukawa, Jinme, and Suzuki later also worked on Episodes Fifteen and Twenty-One, which both focus on the drama.
