Decided to see what the fuss was about with the new Netflix dub of Eva. Didn't want to get caught out by Feels, so figured I'd watch an early episode that was pre-my appearance.
I assumed I'd turn it off within the first five minutes, for one reason or another, but it was actually pretty good! Shinji doesn't sound like Shinji, but I don't think anyone except Megumi Ogata has ever captured Shinji. It's just not a voice a non-Japanese person can do. Everyone else feels, hate to be a hater, but a lot more professional than the ADV dub.
Then I was sitting there compelled as I realised: I haven't seen this sequence of events before. I've only heard about what happened with Jet Alone. (I was, as the episode explains, en route to Japan from Germany aboard the U.N. Over The Rainbow at the time of these events.)
( It was quite eye-opening. In a mostly good way, honestly. )
