And finally, a moment of Cosmic Justice (spoiler-colored juuuust in case):
Misato Katsuragi finally gets to take on an Angel. Not by directing Children against it, not by proxy or at one remove, but as close-up and hands-on as it's possible for a human being to get (ie, piloting an EVA). And It. Is. Awesome. I could easily forgive this series for all its multitudinous sins for this one scene alone, if I hadn't already.
New NERV motto: Misato Katsuragi has Kicked Angel Ass, and all is Right With The World.
AMEN.
