Done. Guarding.
Moderately interesting. It gives a lot of historical background information which is interesting, but I felt like it could have gone deeper into Evangelion lore.
Also is this true

Ah yes, Dennis Redmond. I'm currently reading the sections on Evangelion in his book "The World is Watching".
He's a smart fellow, much of his own ideas of Eva are unique to himself. Within what I've read of his book, the only thing which I found to be blatantly misinterpreting Eva is when he describes the Angels as a "mysterious alien species from another dimension".
Aside from that, what he's written on Eva hasn't really seemed very earth shattering or interesting. I've been more intrigued by fan essays by the likes of Brian Shea, Amanda Wells, and MDWigs.
Mr. Redmond's comments concerning Misato's character design are indeed false. As Sadamoto stated in "My Thoughts at the Moment", Nadia is the model for Shinji, not Misato.
I'll have to give this essay a read through when I'm in the proper mental state. And by "proper mental state", I mean I'll read this the next time boredom strikes.

Spreaking in concreate terms, his eyes are a girl's eyes. I drew them exactly as I drew Nadia's eyes. He's a male Nadia, just as if I had given Nadia a masculine makeover. Lengthen the eyelashes and change the hair style, and you have Nadia.

i think it looks more like Misato..if you compare a screenshot where Misato is with Kaji and Ritsuko in an old photo is exactly the same..

That author's pretty interesting (I found the book for EM in our college's library), he pretty much proves that you can make a living/hobby by just watching a crapload of films and television....if anything, his obscure references to other films and shows in his analysis of evangelion made me think...and laugh.

Well, I guess EoE sort of supports that idea.
