Okay, D looks WAY too happy, smiley, and whatever the hell else weird alien bio-robot-androids she be. I'd be more inclined to think they'd show D cracking open baby's skulls on this cover than smiling all politely. Just wait until her evil "I don't care about the human race because they dug me up at some construction site and threw me away in the world parallel to my own" side shows up. Then the real carnage will begin. And what's up with that eye of hers? I knew a girl who got a pimple under her eye and she tried to do one of those D style comb-overs, she looked like a doofus but nobody knew! I guess a little red blemish is a little easier to hide than an empty socket with a weird LIGHT shining from it. Damn, D could take over the whole world if she wanted, but she'd rather have the love of some dorky guy who spends all day on his computer. She sounds like a perfect candidate for yours truly except for one little monkey wrench in the plan... |

Yayoi, that tight piece with the buzzed down white hair makes all kinds of hot and bothered. Everyone knows the way to Dave's heart is through your hair. Long haired blondes need not apply. Anyway, in true style of the Evangelion, Yayoi, the older woman, becomes the teacher and trainer of the three younger mecha pilots. She also seems to have a crush on Kazuki, like everyone else. Coo-coo-ca-choo Misses Robinson. This twenty three year old bombshell certainly doesn't mind hitting the berries while they're still ripe in the apple tree. You know what I like? Analogies that don't make any sense. For some reason it's decided that everyone's gonna have to live in the house of the leader of the Earth Defense Force, Ken Sanada. First Kazuki is given a manual and told he's not Mitsuki's sister with hilarious coincidences as he tries to memorize the tome of information that is presented to him. His new "big sister" fixes him lunch, straightens his tie, and makes him hand write all the rejections to the love letters he brought her from pretty much every male student in school. As miss Sanada says, "How would you feel if you got a typed up rejection?". She's pretty much the cruel slave driver, offering the choice of spaghetti and curry but knowing she'll only let the poor guy eat spaghetti. What's wrong with her?! Let the man have his noodles! |

But that's not all these three episodes contain. Besides D acting like a big child and running away in her giant robot, the forces of RaRa, evil dictator extraordinaire, attack again and again. Once even during the interview for an arranged marriage between Yayoi and a lifeless looking man with the whole "star sparkle" effect going on in the teeth area. The imperative given is that the wonderful band of three teenagers have to use their giant robots to keep the other giant robot at least 4 kilometers away from the meeting, and judging by the doldrum of a mother trying to push her son, that evil robot couldn't move fast enough for poor Yayoi. Sanada : It's been ages since I enjoyed a good cup of ramen. |

There is quite the bond formed between the young Kazuki and the scientist Ken Sanada as they spend some time in the dark together over the cooking of some delicious, delicious ramen. I don't know how I've managed to stray away from the king of economy foods for so long, do you know how many more DVDs I could buy if my meals only cost me ten cents? But back on track, how long can it possibly last as Kazuki is captured and brought behind enemy lines, in true Shinji style his robot goes crazy as hell and all contact is cut off. Where is Kazuki? Is he safe? What ever happened to the whole plan of making him look like a woman when he's piloting the robot? |
