Neon Genesis Evangelion 1.04

Rain, After Running Away

Shinji takes off for a couple days without telling anyone where he is going. He rides the subway all over Tokyo-3. He eventually makes his way up in to the hills above Tokyo-3. Katsuragi is worried about him but doesn't know what to do.

Shinji runs into Kenduke, one of the boys whom he helped in the previous episode, outside of Tokyo-3. He shares Kensuke's tent but it isn't long before Nerv security find Shinji and take him back. Katsuragi tries to talk to Shinji into piloting one of the EVAs again but he refuses and chooses to resign. He almost gets on the train to return home but at the last minute he changes his mind.

Thoughts

Not a lot happened in this episode. There were a number of extended moments of time passing. This might be my favorite episode up to this point. I don't think I have seen any further than this episode.
