Wherein our hosts free up an evening to continue Neon Podcast Evangelion. When challenges were made to Michael's availability for the evening, Steve presented his alternative: "That's fine. I can go find somewhere to drink beer."
Long breaks make the show into more of an update on their lifelong relationship with Evangelion, and with developments in the Evangelion franchise. Sometimes just popular anime in general. The last year has seen Ghibli win another Oscar (and another Japan Academy Best Animated Prize - the final Eva Rebuild film won in 2022), A US limited release of EoE, and Anno continue with non-eva projects as apparently Japan's premiere server of anime nostalgia. We also cover the NGE clip episode and the first freaky monologue in the show, sometimes known as "Rei's Poem."
Highlights:
- Additional context for the Rei poem are truly fascinating, as described in Anno trying to write from a schizophrenic point of view and finding the disembodiment hitting a bit too close to home.
Hebrew corner covers some good background on the inclusion of Lillith as an "Angel".
- Lots and lots of vaguery regarding show details. Michael volunteers this as a feature for the listener to enjoy the experience of knowing the correct facts themselves.
- No screenshot coverage, ideal for a clip show and the editor's family life.
- Truly mad claim from Steve's daughter that her friends had listened to the show. Not possible.

10: Neon Genesis Evangelion Episode 6: Showdown in Tokyo-3

Their 10th plugcast! Their 20th labored exploration of what "plugcast" is meant to mean! Ten in a year and a half ain't bad. Certainly plenty of time for the new set of anime fans coming up with the loaded anime line-up on Netflix to have passed through a full healthy course of Evangelion fandom and now only occasionally reference the show. Maybe, ultimately, this podcast is for those gripped by the show and never let go.
The new format featuring shot-by-shot analysis continues. This episode of NGE introduces the show's love of magically well orchestrated military logistics. Interspersed with this is much digging into scraps of Rei psychology. Shinji screams; gets back in a robot. It really hits all the Eva buttons.
Highlights:
- There's a light hip-hop thread as Steve brings in a reminder of the power of connecting an interest (anime in this case) with one's creative endeavors with a short eulogy for his favorite MC.
- Steve shares his excitement for the Eva dropping rapper Open Mike Eagle.
- Some good cogitations on the timeline of production and how it broke down at the end. Who has the scripts of the theoretical original last episodes of the series?
- Analysis of NERVs emergency medical protocol.
- The arbitrary over-analyzed room background feature of this plugcast is the multitude of monitors around Shinji’s medical coffin.
- The new format naturally highlights that a way to share all these screenshots would be welcome. Watch our Twitter for this...
