Ok well first off. I'm not thinking too hard just collecting my thoughts when i stop for the day, believe it or not it actually helps me continue reading the work.

I agree that I would like it if someone like DJ spent time with me while i was hold up like that but Rei I'm not. the difference being after hanging out with DJ for a couple of days i wouldn't shoot him dead, Rei on the other hand would. I mean after Asuka showed up Rei stated that she'd be Asuka's friend if ordered to.

getting in Eva the first time doesn't really count in the life saving dept tho.

DJ's background is incredible simple. Lara is his mom so we're supposed to accept that he has all this talent and charm. (Tho admittedly if he had none of it i'd probably be more annoyed) while it's understandable it's also interchangeable and that bugs me a bit.

what i meant about the sync table was that at 30% you can move Eva. 41% for a first timer is a miracle and (correct me on this) DJ jumps to 71 in a month. Sure DJ's human? by this standard Asuka should have like 120 or some such thing given her years of training.

It seems like the standard has been set lower for DJ, he never has to jump nearly as hard to get over the hurtles.
