I havn't seen eva in a while but I'm pretty sure that there is one ep where all he does is listen to the same song over and over.

Any takers?

Thanks!

Episode 2, The unfamiliar ceiling

It's an SDAT player, not an MP3 player.

He listens to the SDAT player constantly in a lot of episodes. Episodes 2 and 4 are probably the ones where you see him play it most often, but he's probably listening to it in bed every night.

I believe it stands for Super <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Audio_Tape">DAT</a>.

Heh, I recall when these things used to cost quite a bit. My dad had a portable DAT player years ago; the thing cost him a fortune.

Not in 2014 though, I suppose

At first, I was surprised they thought S-DAT would last well into that year, but then you have to think that the Second Impact occurs in 2001.

At the time they made Evangelion, CDs were still in its infancy, and no one had even considered DVD. Even though disc media could have been the future for Eva (and turned out to be our future), it's most likely that the cataclysmic destruction brought about by the Second Impact changed all of that.

By 2014, due to the loss of resources and major cities (not to mention these Angels that keep attacking

), kids probably weren't in jobs and couldn't afford to get anything high-tech like today.

I second that notion.
