I liked this bit with Rei. In fact, I liked ALL the bits with the
Children. They're all more fully-fleshed here than in the original
series, and less annoying. This is the primary reason why I'd rather
read CoaEG than watch Eva itself.
I agree. I finally watched some Evangelion, and I definitely like
this fanfic's characters better.
They did sort of go out of their way to make every major character either
pathetic or obnoxious.

No. No. Not so early. You wouldn't.
But you're going to. The Demon-Sultan himself, hideous piping entourage
and all, is coming to Earth, in all his mad and stupid glory.
The problem that he's the motive force of this entire space-time is
going to be conveniently worked around, I hope. And isn't it traditional
to deal with his messenger, instead?
Problem is, Nyarlothotep isn't the kind of thing you can deal with,
using a giant robot. He's much more likely to be a stand-in for Kaworu.
However, I don't think that Azathoth will be coming to town. Too tough,
and actually Azathoth is pretty harmless in his own right. Besides,
he's an Outer God, not a Great Old One. At worst I figure it will
be Hastur or somebody.
Azathoth demanded too many royalties and his own trailer to appear in the
next episode, so we got a five year old to make us a sock puppet to use in
his stead.
Okay, maybe not.
