Ladies and gentlemen... we got 'em. Only a few lines are redubbed to remove swearing and other stuff, and most of the visual censoring is in removing cuts like the shot of Shinji's hand covered in Rei's blood before he decides to pilot in ep1, but it's still frickin awesome that we finally have them. They've actually been on google drive since 2019... oops. One super cool thing about these uploads is that they have the 11 minute mark commercial breaks included, it's a pretty sick little novelty if you're a late 90s or early 2000s kid, crazy nostalgic.
The reddit post: https://www.reddit.com/r/Toonami/commen ... _episodes/
The google drive containing both episodes: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/ ... St9jUUld52
I've saved both episodes to my desktop just in case they vanish again. Lost media gang got me thinking ahead.

What a find! Always wonderful when lost media turns out to be... well, not lost! Crazy to think this was airing on television when I was a kid and I could have seen it if I'd flipped to the right channel. Most people growing up watching anime now are probably doing it on streaming services instead of tuning in to Toonami or some other anime block.

I believe I've heard about this from somewhere a while ago (maybe back on reddit?), so I'm glad it finally turned up! I still can't get over the fact that this was aired on CN... Thanks for sharing man! ^_^
