One thing I don't get is how anyone cannot realize Anno practically copied "Nadia" to make this anime.

While I find the characters amusing, I dislike their dysfunctional behavior in the series with a passion. It's like watching Battlestar Galactica (the new series). You just want to write a self-insert fanfiction (which I have done) just so you can beat their heads in with a stick, or mutter "stupid Lilims" while they're being murdered during EoE.
