episode 5 is weird, uncomfortable, and perfect. rei's not a robot, but she's something else entirely. the silence, the stares, the slap. eva at its most awkward and brilliant. if you're not squirming, you're not paying attention.

Quiet and reflective. Character moments feel distant but layered, making you curious. It’s not flashy, but it sets the tone for deeper themes, and the story continues to pull you in organically.
