Every time I watch the dub of 2.22's Sahaquiel fight and Shinji says 'AT Field, Max Power!', I can't help but think of...

I found the scene where Maya embraces what appears to be Ritsuko's apparition to be very touching and hilarious for the sole reason of her "Senpai! SENPAI! SENPAI! SENPAI! SENPAI!" and turns into tang. Damn shame how the bridge bunnies went out because I really liked their characters!

At least they went out happy...except for Aoba. But he was rarely happy to begin with....

Maybe it's just me but he never seemed to be as grumpy as everyone said he was, if anything he seemed to be the most chill of the bunnies.

And on topic, both Hyuga's death and the beggining of Komm Susser Todd (The image of Shinji strangling Asuka while the ecstatic/joyful piano starts playing) were always kind of funny to me.

See, I only find Shinji strangling Asuka funny (this includes the ending scene) in the sense that with all the verbal/emotional abuse he put up with her, it seems logical he would be that reactionary.

I would heartily disagree, and i'm pretty sure Shinji himself would disagree with it as well.

The first time I watched NGE I saw it through a streaming site. Sometimes the stream would get messed up in a way that would make the video and audio slow down to about 0.25x speed, taking the pitch down as well. Refreshing the page would fix this easily, but often I would just sit there laughing through the opening because it sounded hilarious slowed down. If any of you have the means to recreate this, I highly suggest you try it!

The script for that line of dialog adds in little hearts by way of punctuation.

Whoever wrote/edited that script really loved those little hearts, even the Eva Series use them:

this is the scene where they pierce their own cores, isn't it?

They do moan when they do it, so it's not out of place.

Maybe so but everyone has their breaking point and it wouldn't be inconceivable if that was the case (and this coming someone who actually likes Asuka). Everyone has their limit, I can't stress that enough. Come to think of it, there has to be some level of genuine anger directed at Asuka when he strangles her not once, but twice.

The thing with Rei and the Eva series had me chuckling a bit well because of the moaning. I still can't comprehend that scene very well.....Just like a lot of things in Evangelion.

Oh sure, Shinji definitively went far beyond his breaking point by the time of Komm Susser Todd. Asuka is far from the main reason however.

On topic, i don't know if it was unintentional, but: In episode 3, when unit 01 gets thrown by the angel towards the mountain Toji and Kensuke are eavesdropping from. The faces the two of them make are simply way too hilarious :lol:

Two things that make me laugh:

Shinji's lame attempt at technobabble in ep. 19 where he shouts "I've still got a direct control circuit!" right before the increased LCL compression makes him faint. Obviously you don't, biotch. :lol:

The way Asuka nonchalantly kills some people when she hops ontop of a destroyer in ep.8, completely crushing the bridge. :lol:

I'm sure it's been cited ad nauseam, and probably on this very thread, but the immortal line "I'm dating Gendo Rokubungi...a lot!" never fails to crack me up.
