My Comments:  While the team keeps going on and participating in experiments, there’s no more clue on what the experiments are about.  Anyway, going on with the ‘normal’ life of Shinji, I’ve noticed that this volume’s much funnier than previous.  There were more jokes and less of a dreary, serious atmosphere.  While there are many typical falls in which Shinji ‘accidentally’ lands in an awkward position, it doesn’t detract much.  There is a lot more outings too, in which they go for a vacation type thing, a water park, one day restaurant and hot springs.  It does seem to be focusing more on Rei than Asuka, with Shinji preferring Rei.
