"Start entry sequence." "Initializing LCL ionization." "Plug depth stable at default value." "Autonomous systems are a go." "Boot-up voltage has cleared the threshold." "Launch prerequisites achieved." "Synchronization rate requirements are a go." "Pilot, please specify linguistic norm for cognitive functions." "Well, it's my first time, so I'll go with Japanese." "Roger." "I guess we weren't able to issue you the new model in time." "I hate how this thing's tight in the chest." "On top of which, we're sending you out to fight in an Eva that was thrown together." "So I'm really sorry about that." "You finally let me get in the pilot's seat, so we're good." "You're a problem child, after all." "Well, we're counting on you." "It's moving!" "It's moving!" "This is great!" "So exciting!" "Now, then!" "Evangelion Provisional Unit 05, activate!" "Defend the Limbo Area at all costs!" "We cannot allow it to escape from Acheron!" "How could a containment system as secure as Cocytus be neutralized?" "It was within the realm of possibility." "On its own, humanity is incapable of holding the Angels in check." "The analysis following the permafrost excavation of the 3rd Angel was so extensive, all that was left were some bones." "And this was the conclusion." "That's it." "Good luck!" "E Happiness won't come walking to you E" "E That's why you have to walk to it E" "E One step a day, three steps in three days E" "E Three steps forward and two steps back E" "E Go at life with a one-two punch E" "Ooh, here it comes!" "Deploy field!" "Target inbound." "Eva Unit-05 is about to engage the hostile." "Oh, man!" "This thing is so not responsive!" "I guess that just leaves brute force as my only option!" "Upper outer wall integrity compromised!" "The final seal is about to be breached!" "Target has broken through Limbo Area." "Now moving into Acheron." "Get Unit-05 to do something!" "You're not getting away from me!" "Ow!" "This hurts real bad, but..." "It's fun, so it's all good!" "No time left." "And this unit can't take much more." "And the artificial arms were forcibly synchronized, so they're not as powerful." "Oh, fine!" "I'll let you have an arm!" "Drop dead already!" "Target obliterated." "Unit-05 has been vaporized." "Pilot appears to have been ejected." "So, Unit-05's self-destruct program functioned without a hitch..." "This was always part of the plan, but I feel bad about involving kids to carry out adult agendas." "Ow, that hurt..." "Synchronizing with an Eva is more brutal than they'd said." "Well, as long as I'm alive, it's all good." "I feel awkward involving adults for the sake of my own goals..." "Farewell, Eva Unit-05." "You served well." "It's been three years, hasn't it?" "Since we last came here together." "I ran away that time and..." "I haven't been here since." "It doesn't seem real to me that Mom was laid to rest here." "I don't even remember her face." "People deal with life by letting their memories fade." "But there are also some things that we must never forget." "And Yui taught me those things, which are to be treasured." "I come here to reaffirm those things." "You don't have any photos of her or anything?" "None remain." "Even this grave is just for show." "There's no body here." "So you threw everything away, just like my teacher said." "It's all in my heart and mind." "That's enough for now." "It's time." "I'll be returning without you." "Dad!" "Um..." "I'm glad I got to talk to you today." "Are you?" "Well, Shinji?" "You were worried about this and that, but it wasn't so bad when you actually saw him, right?" "It's good that you came instead of being wishy-washy at home, right?" "It was a visit to your mother's grave, after all." "You just dragged me out here, Miss Misato." "That's because, deep down, you wanted to come." "Be at least a little honest with yourself." "Being honest with myself will only make me more miserable." "You lived up to everyone's expectation and saved us." "Have more confidence in yourself." "I'm sure your father also recognizes you for what you've accomplished." "Yes?" "Katsuragi." "Whoa-oa-oa!" "What did you say?" "!" "The Seventh Angel has been detected off the coast of Sagami Bay." "Area 2 Division engaging target." "State of emergency declared three minutes ago." "I've got a visual on it, too." "Currently transporting Unit-01 pilot." "Implement Task 03 right away, prioritizing Unit-00." "Negative." "Task 02 has already been implemented." "Task 02?" "!" "Don't tell me...!" "Just as I thought!" "Unit-02!" "Wow!" "One shot to take out the core!" "No!" "That was a decoy!" "Situation terminated!" "Eva Unit-02 currently in transit via Main Sagami Line 1." "No change to ETA to Depot 9." "Whoowee!" "So Unit-02's red, huh?" "Its color's not the only thing that's different." "Ultimately, Unit-00 and Unit-01 are just the prototype and the test-type used in the developmental process." "But Unit-02 is different." "It's none other than the world's first real Evangelion, built for actual combat!" "The official production model!" "Allow me to introduce you to the Euro Air Force ace," "Captain Asuka Langley Shikinami." "She's the 2nd Girl." "Designated pilot of Eva Unit-02." "Long time no see, Misato." "So that's the Unit-00 pilot, who was chosen because she's the teacher's pet." "And which one of you is the Unit-01 pilot, who was chosen because he's daddy's boy?" "Uh, um..." "What are you, an idiot?" "!" "Not being available in a moment of crisis?" "!" "How blind are you?" "!" "And unguarded, too." "You're not even ashamed that your Eva wasn't there to fight!" "That's what you get from a daddy's boy." "Who the hell does that chick think she is, anyway?" "!" "A captain already at our age, though?" "That's awesome!" "Beyond awesome!" "That's like going from junior high straight to grad school!" "Excuse me." "Is this the right gate for the Geofront's hub terminal?" "Er, yes." "You'll have to transfer at the fourth stop, though." "I've only been gone for two years, and I feel like Urashima Taro..." "Thanks, you're a lifesaver." "By the way, isn't Katsuragi with you?" "I'm an old friend of hers." "You're not the only one who knows what a sloppy sleeper she is, Shinji Ikari." "He's watched her sleep?" "Who is that guy?" "Man, oh, man, that was one rough job." "The 3rd Angel and Eva Unit-05, which were outstanding issues, were disposed of as planned." "The cause, categorically deemed an accident." "The Marduk Plan at Bethany Base will come to a standstill now." "All has gone exactly as you had planned." "As for the usual report on the latest from Seele, just earlier, I" "We took a look at it." "Confirmation of the construction of Mark 06 proved useful." "Excellent." "Here is the item as promised." "The lost number that had been stored for safekeeping as the spare." "The waymark that will entwine God and soul." "Yes." "It will open the door to Human Instrumentality." "The Key of Nebuchadnezzar." "Then if you'll excuse me," "I'm going to go do my own thing for a while." "Ryoji Kaji." "Chief Inspection Officer." "Is he a man that can be trusted?" "Have you lost a little weight, Ritsy?" "Wrong." "I've gained 1,570 grams." "I'd love to see for myself." "I wouldn't mind, but this room is being monitored." "No problem." "I already have fake footage running on the system." "Thoroughly prepared as ever, aren't you?" "I just don't like to lose." "But you've lost." "There's a scary lady watching us." "Long time no see, Ryo." "Hey, it's been a while." "What the hell are you doing here?" "You're assigned to Euro, aren't you?" "I'm here on a special assignment." "I'll be at Headquarters for a while." "The three of us can hang out together again." "Just like when we were students." "I have no interest in going back to those days!" "I only came to see Ritsuko!" "About Asuka." "I got HR's okay." "Bye!" "That was blatant jealousy." "You've got a shot at her here, Ryo." "Well, we'll have to see about that." "Asuka Shikinami..." "I had no idea some people were actually happy to pilot an Eva." "I'm back." "Wait, what the hell is this?" "!" "My room..." "How rude!" "That's my stuff." "But then, what about my stuff?" "Wait, what are you doing here, Shikinami?" "What are you, an idiot?" "It means they're giving you the boot." "Well, when you consider who's the more accomplished one here, the decision was obvious." "You can't be serious!" "But why are Japanese rooms so cramped?" "!" "I couldn't even fit half of my stuff in here!" "And why do Japanese people totally lack any sense of security?" "I don't know how you people live in rooms without locks!" "Unbelievable!" "That's because the Japanese spirit is about being perceptive and considerate." "Miss Misato!" "You are so annoying!" "Hurry up and get lost along with the trash." "Oh, but Shin's staying here, too." "What?" "!" "What you and Shin lack is appropriate communication skills." "As fellow pilots, you need to live under the same roof and make nice." "That's an order." "Okay, all together now!" "Thank you for the meal!" "A cold beer after a hot bath is still the best thing ever!" "Th-Th-There's some weird animal in the bath!" "It's a kind of bird called penguins." "His name is Pen Pen." "You pervert!" "Jerk!" "You're sick!" "Unbelievable!" "They're starting to open up more." "This is why I hate boys!" "blah" "I think that's a good sign." "Don't you, Pen Pen?" ""I'm not like them, either!"" ""I'm special!"" ""That's why, just like before..."" "You have to keep going it alone, Asuka." "I guess Dad still won't answer the phone." "A social studies field trip?" "Kaji's taking you?" "Yes." "He said I should invite everyone else along, too." "Nothing good will come of having anything to do with that guy." "Then I'm gonna pass!" "No, you're not. "Harmony is the greatest of virtues."" "You go, too, Asuka." "Is that an order, too?" "Here we are, with the Tabgha Moonbase right in front of our noses, and yet, they refuse us permission to land." "The Seele certainly can be nasty." "The construction methods being used on the Mark 06 differ from the others." "Getting to ascertain that is enough." "But there weren't supposed to be any plans for construction beyond Unit-05." "There are likely still undisclosed Apocrypha of the Dead Sea Scrolls." "Seele intends to follow their script based on those writings." "But even Seele must be aware of Nerv's ultimate goal at this point." "Even if they are, we have but to follow our own path." "Though it may mean turning against the Word of God." "Is that a person?" "Surely not..." "Nice to meet you, Father." "Awesome!" "This is beyond awesome!" "Perpetual conservation of the marine life that was lost and restoration of the oceans that had turned red!" "Truly, a forbidden sanctuary carrying out grand godlike experimental projects!" "Just getting to scratch the surface and tour even a small part of it is..." "Truly, it's like, this is what good friends are for!" "Awesome!" "blah" "Thanks a bunch, man." "If you're going to thank someone, thank Mr. Kaji." "Here's where things get complicated." "Huh?" "Hot, hot, hot, hot, hot!" "C-Cold!" "Cold!" "Not again." "Nooo!" "I can't take any more of this..." "What a huge tank!" "Amazing!" "So these are the creatures from before the Second Impact." "Holy...!" "They're alive!" "Awesome!" "Beyond awesome!" "Ooh, here's one with somethin' on its back!" "I hear they're called "turtles."" ""Turtuls"?" "Look at the kiddies getting all excited." "Talk about idiotic." "I'm glad you were able to come with us, Ayanami." "Are you okay now, healthwise?" "Yes." "I finished my allotment, so I'm fine today." "It's so cramped in there." "They should go swim in the bigger areas." "They can't." "They can only survive in there." "Just like me." "Time to eat!" "This is good." "I didn't expect that." "Yeah, excellent job on the grilling and seasoning." "To think the 90% artificial meat can become this tasty when cooked right." "It's truly astounding!" "Shinji, that's a hidden talent ya got there." "Miss Misato only goes for microwavable foods, so it's either I cook or nothing." "Women love men who know their way around a kitchen, Shinji." "You hear that?" "Nuh-uh!" "I'm not gonna cook!" "That's no job for a man!" "Talk about old-fashioned." "So idiotic." "The hell d'you say?" "!" "It's important to have yer principles!" "That's even more idiotic." "The hell d'you say?" "!" "Forget about it." "Just eat, just eat." "Sorry, Ayanami, was it not to your taste?" "No, I just don't eat meat." "Why do you Japanese apologize when you haven't even done anything wrong?" "!" "And you!" "Living things eat other living things to survive!" "That's precious life there, so clean your plate!" "Are you trying to pick a fight, Teacher's Pet?" "!" "Comin' through, comin' through." "In that case, I'll just help myself." "Ya aren't gettin' any!" "Greedy bastard!" "Get away from me!" "Moron!" "Idiotic." "Then, how about some miso soup?" "It'll warm you up." "It's delicious." "To think that this is our Mother Earth." "I can't look at it." "It breaks my heart." "However, there are also those who wished for this miserable state." "Because it's a world barred to man, cleansed and untainted by original sin." "I would rather have a chaotic world tainted by man." "Chaos is merely a human impression." "The world is composed entirely of harmony and order." "So, it is the human heart that throws the world into confusion." "It's hard for me to imagine that this ocean used to be blue before I was born." "It's amazing that we were even able to restore the environment to the point where we humans could live in it." "But this sea breeze..." "It smells kind of weird and fishy, doesn't it?" "It's the smell of decaying marine life." "It's proof that they were alive." "Not like that red water with nothing in it." "This is how the real ocean's supposed to be." "By rights, this world should be vast and filled with all kinds of life." "And I wanted you guys to know that." "It makes me happy somehow." "Miss Misato should've come, too." "Katsuragi would never come." "Because it would remind her." "Of what?" "The Second Impact..." "Have you ever asked Katsuragi why she joined Nerv?" "Katsuragi's father was apparently the sort of man who lived for his research, lived in his dreams." "And she used to hate her father for that." "I think she may have even despised him." "So you don't get along with your father." "You're the same as me." "She's the same as me." "But in the end, she was saved by her father." "Being a survivor can mean a lot of things." "You have to accept the sacrifice of those who died and bear the burden of what they stood for." "That's all the more true if you're the sole survivor." "You're not the only one who's got it rough." "Target detected by Mauna Kea Observatories three minutes ago." "Currently entering orbital elements." "Surveillance Satellite 3 has a visual on the target." "Putting it on screen at maximum magnification." "An AT field powerful enough to bend light?" "That's phenomenal." "So, where do we expect it to land?" "Here, of course." "Right?" "The Magi are also recalculating." "Probability of a direct hit on Nerv HQ is 99.9999%." "The aerial N2 bombs are having no effect whatsoever." "So, no adjusting its trajectory." "Its AT field is pushed out to one concentrated point, and the energy from its descent will add to that as well." "So the Angel itself is acting as a bomb." "In the event the 8th Angel scores a direct hit, the estimated diameter of the blast is 420,000." "With a geoid deviation of -15,000." "New Tokyo-3 will be vaporized." "The Central Dogma will be completely exposed, to say nothing of the Geofront." "Where's Commander Ikari?" "Signals in the upper atmosphere are unstable due to the Angel." "We can't reach him at this time." "We'll have no choice but to make the call ourselves here." "Notify the Japanese government as well as all ministries." "Under Nerv's authority, we are issuing Special Declaration D-17." "Immediately commence the evacuation of all residents within a 120km radius." "Not a problem." "People connected to the government have already begun scrambling to evacuate." "Evacuation of civilians within city limits completed." "Evacuation of noncombatants and Class D Workers has been completed in accordance with Departmental Warning C." "We've asked Matsushiro to handle the backup of the Magi." "So, what's the plan?" "Even our Evas aren't capable of flying..." "Severe spatial distortion also makes sniping from various angles impossible." "There's nothing we can do against a monster like this." "Are you serious?" "Yes, I am." "Can this plan really be called a strategy?" "Even the Magi have verified that the probability of failure is a little over 99%." "Even if it succeeds, we'll lose three Evas." "Speaking for the Technology Division, that is absolutely unacceptable." "Our chance of success isn't zero." "Better to be down-to-earth and work hard than wait for a miracle." "We should make protecting Lilith and Unit-01 our top priority." "I have no intention of waiting." "We're going to create a miracle of man's own volition!" "Colonel Katsuragi!" "I am currently the ranking officer here." "It's my decision to make." "Besides, my job is to wipe out the angels." "Your job?" "Your personal grudge, you mean?" "That's what your vendetta against the Angels is." "What?" "!" "Catch it with our hands?" "!" "That's right." "As the Angel comes flying, you'll deploy your Eva's AT field at maximum and catch it directly." "The target is disguising its location, so you won't be able to expect an accurate calculation of the trajectory based on compensated observation." "In order to give ourselves multiple options as the situation dictates, this mission will involve all three Evas being deployed simultaneously." "You're wasting your time!" "I can destroy it on my own!" "That'll be impossible." "A single Eva won't be able to cover the vast area within which the Angel is estimated to land." "What is this positioning based on?" "Woman's intuition." "How arbitrary is that!" "Um, what's our chance of success?" "I'd have to say, God only knows." "That's exactly why these millstones around my neck will get in the way!" "I'm more than up to the task of protecting mankind on my own!" "Your performance in single-combat isn't what this mission needs." "So you refuse to acknowledge my talent?" "That's not it." "I need all three of you on this to create a miracle." "All Evas currently operating on live power sources." "Unit 5 is in position." "Situation, green." "Power transmission is nominal." "Currently standing by at designated location." "Unit-02, internal voltage has cleared set levels." "Construction of Temporary Power Storage Facility 305 is complete." "Maintain power supply output at maximum." "Connection made with the New Gotenba Substation." "Start positions for all Evas remain unchanged." "Station coming online." "Continuing to lay down auxiliary cables." "Unit-00 internal power charged to over 105%." "Auxiliary power extension cables have arrived." "Commencing system check." "Roger." "Circuits green." "Team 8, please get them connected quickly." "Transmission voltage nominal." "Checking Unit-01 connector link." "Currently testing Transformer Group 7." "No abnormalities detected." "All pilots standing by." "Respiration and heart rates are normal." "Final medical check has been cleared." "Being inside the Eva..." "I wonder why." "It's strangely calming in here, even at a time like this." "Have I gotten used to being in here already?" "I wonder why." "It feels warm and familiar..." "Is it the smell?" "How my mom smelled?" "How Ayanami smells?" "Calculating target's trajectory." "And here it comes." "All Evas in your start positions." "Since the secondary data is unreliable, priority from here on out will be given to your onsite discretion." "Everything we've got is riding on you and the Evas." "Target approaching." "Distance, approximately 20,000." "All right then, start the operation." "Go." "Target's AT field is transforming!" "Trajectory changing!" "Estimated point of impact adjusted by 205." "Target accelerating!" "What the hell?" "It's faster than they'd estimated!" "No good!" "I won't make it in time!" "I'll manage things from my end." "Miss Misato!" "Emergency course configuration!" "605 to 675!" "Yes, ma'am!" "Next!" "1072 to 1078!" "Stand by!" "Target morphing!" "Distance, 12,000!" "AT field at maximum!" "Daddy's Boy!" "Unit-02, get the core." "I know that!" "Don't order me around!" "I missed?" "!" "Damn sore loser, scurrying around!" "30 seconds left!" "Hurry, Asuka!" "I know!" "Teacher's Pet?" "!" "Hurry..." "Asuka!" "I know what to do, damn you!" "And here's one more!" "Thank you, you guys." "Radio systems are back online." "Incoming call from Commander Ikari." "Patch him through." "You have my apologies." "Decisions I made at my discretion have resulted in damage to three Evas, as well as injury to their pilots." "I take full responsibility for it." "That's fine." "In light of the target's destruction, this level of damage might actually be considered fortunate." "Yes, you did well for us, Colonel Katsuragi." "Thank you very much." "Patch me through to Unit-01's pilot." "I heard what happened." "You did well, Shinji." "What?" "Yes, sir..." "Then, Colonel Katsuragi, I will leave the rest to you." "Yes, sir." "Expedite the recovery of the three Evas." "Priority goes to Unit-01." "Transport to Emergency Cage 99." "I couldn't do anything on my own." "Being alone has always been the norm for me, and yet..." "Solitude shouldn't bother me, and yet..." "H-Hey..." "Don't turn this way." "Daddy's Boy, let me stay here, just for a little while." "Um..." "Miss..." "Shikinami?" "You got caught up in the moment and called me by name today." "I'll make a special exception." "You can call me Asuka." "I'll call you Stupid Shinji, too." "Then... um..." "Asuka, why do you pilot the Eva...?" "What a silly question." "Shut up, Stupid Shinji." "I pilot the Eva for myself." "What about you?" "I don't really know." "What are you, an idiot?" "That's just how you avoid owning up to whatever it is, right?" "Maybe I want Dad to praise me." "He praised me for the first time today." "For the first time, I felt happy to be praised." "I wonder if Dad recognizes me for my accomplishments now." "Maybe it's just like Miss Misato said." "You really are an idiot." "Did you watch it?" "I did, I did!" "All righty, time to eat!" "It's the best part of school, after all!" "What?" "!" "You didn't bring us lunch?" "!" "I was doing homework this morning and I didn't have time to make it!" "And because of that, you expect me to go without lunch?" "!" "Like I said, I'll be sure to make lunch tomorrow!" "What's this?" "Another marital spat?" "No, it's not!" "Asuka, let me borrow your face washing soap." "Enough already, Misato!" "Get your own!" "Cheapskate!" "All righty, time to eat!" "Woohoo!" "Let's dig in!" "Hmm." "It's so-so today." "But it'd be even better if he hadn't slacked off that day." "Um, Asuka?" "Would you mind if I joined you?" "No, but I'm not sharing my lunch." "Here, this is for you." "You never seem to have lunch, so..." "Thank you." "I'm so glad I worked up the nerve to talk to you." "Hikari, was it?" "You can have the rest." "Whew, I'm stuffed!" "Thank you for the meal!" "That's a late lunch." "Th-Thanks." "So I hear Shinji makes your lunches?" "Well, you're not the home cooking type anyway." "I suppose not." "Unlike you, with time on your hands," "I have boatloads of work to do as a manager in the trenches." "You're as serious as ever." "I mean, that's your strength, but it's also your weakness." "Like the other day." "I heard that you went at it with Ritsy." "Relax a little more." "Unfortunately, my plate's always full with duty and obligations." "If you're too tense, you'll never find a guy." "Nobody asked you!" ""Thank you."" "Words of gratitude." "Words I'd never spoken before." "I'd never even said it to him..." "Rise!" "Bow!" "Be seated!" "Ayanami's absent again, huh?" "No matter." "She seemed well yesterday." "Now, I'm going to give you back the test from the other day," "I wonder what happened." "but before I do..." "Just like me." "They can only survive in there..." "What did she mean?" "Rei." "Time for a meal." "Yes, sir." "Commander Ikari." "What is it?" "Are meals enjoyable?" "Yes." "Is there pleasure in eating with someone else?" "Yes." "Cooking dishes is delightful..." "Is that right?" "Yes." "Commander Ikari, how about having a meal with Ikari and the others sometime?" "No, I have no time for such..." "Honey, take care of Shinji for me..." "All right, I'll go." "Simulated synch is normal for all pilots." "Picking up no psychological contamination." "LCL osmotic pressure clears Categorization B." "Jeez, this is so boring!" "If no Angels come, we're stuck doing checks all day!" "Totally not cool." "I don't see the problem." "We're doing all this work so we can build a peaceful daily life free of Angels, you know." "Whee!" "Glorying in our repetitive daily lives:" "in a today just like yesterday, a tomorrow probably just like today." "That's something to be grateful for, actually." "Checks complete." "All monitors coming in loud and clear." "Good work, you three." "You can come on out now." "Back up to file 101." "Commencing LCL drain in three minutes." "This may not be for me to say, but such severe damage is going to hinder our ability to run operations." "Couldn't we just scrap the Vatican Treaty?" "I know." "With each country only allowed possession of a maximum of three Evas, there's no leeway in operational units." "Even now, our repair work is being prioritized for Unit-01." "We're just barely managing by juggling all the spare parts, so we don't even know when we'll be able to repair Unit-00." "The nationalistic ego of every country is tangled up in that Treaty." "Getting it revised will be nearly impossible." "On top of which, with their loss of Unit-05," "Euro and Russia seem to be embroiling Asia in their various allegations." "It gets to be something of a pain when politics enters the picture." "There's too much to do before we can even get around to protecting mankind." "Move!" "Move!" "Ooh, ow..." "That hurt..." "My glasses, my glasses..." "Um..." "Oh, sorry." "Are you okay?" "Hello." "Mari here." "Yes, I seem to have glided off target." "It looks like I'm in a school of some sort." "What?" "!" "Well, you told me to enter into Japan covertly!" "Won't you have the Euro people work this out?" "Just be there for my extraction later, okay?" "Thanks." "You smell good." "I can smell LCL on you." "You're interesting." "Well, mum's the word." "Okay, little Nerv doggy?" "Huh?" "That's strange..." "Hey." "How about going on a date for once?" "I'm a guy." "No problem." "Gender has nothing to do with love." "I'm kidding." "Here." "The smell of dirt..." "Worn out already?" "I expect to get the labor I paid for." "Paid for?" "You mean that can of coffee?" "And you called this a date." "I thought you were a more serious person than this." "For an adult, being more devious than not is just about perfect." "If I remember right, these are watermelons, aren't they?" "Yeah." "Cute, right?" "It's my hobby." "Making things or growing things is great." "It makes you see and understand all kinds of things." "Like about enjoyment." "And about suffering, too, right?" "Do you hate suffering?" "I don't like it." "Did you find something that you enjoyed?" "That's fine, too." "But people who know about suffering are capable of being kind to others that much more." "And that's not the same as being weak." "Do you like Katsuragi?" "M-Miss Misato?" "Uh, well..." "I don't not like her." "Protect Katsuragi for me." "That's something I can't do." "Only you can." "Please." "Morning." "Ayanami!" "A greeting?" "From Ayanami?" "Ayanami, are you okay now?" "Yes, I'm fine today." "What happened to your hand?" "Dr. Akagi put them on for me just earlier." "What were you doing?" "It's a secret." "I'll tell you once I get a little better at it." "Rei's changed." "The idea of her doing something for someone else is mind-boggling." "What could have brought this on?" "Maybe... it's love!" "Surely not." "Impossible." "I wonder if Idiot Shinji would prefer it to be milder." "I'm back!" "Oh?" "Misato, you're early." "I have to go right back to HQ." "I only came home for a bath and change of clothes." "Ooh!" "Whoa!" "Oh, my, my!" "Are you going to cook for Shin, too?" "What?" "!" "No!" "Um, it's for a girl..." "Y-Yeah, it's for Hikari!" "First Rei and now you." "Getting romantic all of a sudden." "What?" "Don't lump me in with that teacher's pet!" "Hmm, I suppose I shouldn't." "Rei seems to have something more ambitious planned, after all." "What do you mean?" "It looks like she wants to be the cupid who brings Commander Ikari and Shin together." ""Invite everyone to a dinner party and serve a home-cooked meal"" "seems to be her plan of attack." "It's so direct, it's going to pack a punch." "Seriously, bringing that family closer together is no easy task." "That girl's doing this for Idiot Shinji?" "It's a surprise, so no telling Shin, okay?" "As if I would!" "Vaporized?" "!" "Eva Unit-04 and Branch 2 were vaporized?" "This is data from ground zero at T plus 10." "It's terrible." "The satellite lets us verify that the AT field collapsed, but the specifics remain unknown." "So Unit-04 was at the center, as we'd suspected." "Tell me that our Evas are fine." "Unit-04 was...!" "Unit-04 was the testbed for a new internal engine that was meant to solve our operational time limit issues." "Or so I've heard." "Nerv North America's RD intel hasn't been extensively disclosed even to Dr. Akagi." "Those who would know are..." "Eva Unit-04." "It was an experimental unit aimed at acquiring data for the development of a next-generation Eva." "Anything could have happened to it." "But..." "Was it really an accident?" "Gimme three of these, ma'am." "It's unusual for you to treat us, Toji." "Yer so serious..." "I never thought you'd come hang out with us for a cheap snack, either." "Why don't you be honest and say that your little sister's gotten better?" "Shaddup!" "Keep yer mouth shut 'bout what's none of yer business!" "Moron!" "Say, Ikari." "So, Unit-03's coming to Japan?" "It is?" "I haven't heard anything." "Rumor is, the US suddenly insisted that we take it, along with making us do the activation test." "Well, I guess you rank and file pilots don't need to know about it." "Say, who do you think will be piloting it?" "I don't know." "I haven't heard anything." "It must be so great to be a pilot!" "I wish they'd pick me!" "Don't look at me." "Try asking Miss Misato." "Damn, I didn't win." "Evangelion Unit-05 was lost earlier..." "And now, Unit-04 has similarly been lost." "The loss of the two units will hinder the progress of our plans, but..." "It is within correctable limits." "There should be no problem." "The American government has insisted on offering Eva-03 to you." "Your country's government is amenable to this as well." "It's a state-of-the-art unit." "It should be good enough to be your main fire power." "The elimination of Angels is being executed on an ongoing basis." "An untested unit cannot be trusted." "If you would approve the additional supplementary budget to repair Unit-00..." "The prototype's function is beginning to grow obsolete." "Surely, you have no need of it." "Indeed." "There are other matters that should be given priority." "The true Evangelion that we desire..." "With its birth and the resurrection of Lilith the time of the covenant will be upon us." "The necessary rites must be performed by then." "For the sake of the Human Instrumentality Project." "I am aware of this." "All will go according to Seele's plan." "The true Evangelion." "To serve as its forerunners until its completion..." "That's basically the job of all the current units, including Unit-01." "And that's the Mark 06?" "So they've finally decided they want to create a real god instead of false ones." "Yes." "We must hasten the awakening of Unit-01." "Eva Unit-02's core unit separation complete." "Why is my Unit-02 being put into containment?" "!" "You know what the Vatican Treaty is, right?" "This is the condition in exchange for getting Unit-03." "Unit-00's still in for repairs, so put it into containment!" "Euro still has possession of the pass to Unit-02." "There's nothing we can do about it." "And it has no designated pilot now, either." "Sit tight until we receive further word from Euro." "But no one can pilot it except me." "The Evas are combat weapons." "There's a backup for everything." "That includes the pilot." "No, it can't be..." "But this is the one place I belong in the entire world..." "The Evas mirror what's in our hearts." "What was that?" "You don't have to be dependent on the Eva." "There's happiness for you outside the Eva." "Don't patronize me!" "You're just the teacher's pet!" "I was chosen to be a pilot on my merits, because I'm a genius!" "I'm not like you two, who got in through your connections!" "I'm just tied to it." "I just don't have any ties with people except through the Eva." "Shut up!" "Commander Ikari just favors you, because you're a prim doll, who does everything he says, right?" "!" "I'm not a doll." "You are a doll!" "Have a little more self-awareness!" "You've got some nerve for a doll." "I've got just one question for you." "What do you think of that idiot?" "Idiot?" ""Idiot" as in "Idiot Shinji," of course." "Ikari?" "Well?" "I don't really know." "This is the problem with you Japanese!" "Say what you mean!" "I don't know." "But being with Ikari makes me feel all warm inside." "I want Ikari to feel all warm inside, too." "I want him to get along with Commander Ikari and feel all warm inside." "I get it." "Seriously!" "Talk about profoundly ultra-idiotic!" "That means she likes him!" "I can't wait for this dinner party." "But I wonder if Ayanami's cooking is going to be okay..." "I wish Father would come, too." "The first unmanned solo activation test of the Dummy System..." "So that's the Dummy System." "It is ostensibly nothing more than a support system for the pilot, but it is not only capable of autonomous control on its own, but it can even generate an AT field out of an unmanned unit." "It is apparently more humane than making children pilot them." "There's something about it that just rubs me the wrong way!" "It's a black box part direct from Golgotha Base, after all." "So it's remained a mystery to us." "Entrusting our Evas to something so sketchy just boggles my mind!" "Are you saying the Evas are safe in the hands of the pilots because they're human?" "Shinji sure has your trust." "Or rather, I guess it's because of Shinji that you can say that." "Never mind that." "What about intel on the organization above us called Seele or something?" "Anything you can tell me?" "If you want to snoop around about that project, I'd advise against it." "That's not an option for me." "The Human Instrumentality Project..." "What is Nerv trying to do behind the scenes?" "That's something I'd like to know, too." "We haven't had a meal together in ages, and all we talk about is work, work, work!" "Things are different from when we were students." "There's so much more that we're aware of... burdens we've taken on." "I guess neither of us can afford to think only of ourselves anymore." "And Shinji and the others are loaded down with an even greater burden." "Yeah." "It's too much for kids to have to bear." "But we have no choice but to depend on them." "Yes?" "Yes, I know." "I'll make my decision by midnight." "Ritsy?" "Yup." "She's hounding me about the Unit-03 test pilot." "Personnel decisions are your responsibility, after all." "I know that, but..." "The schedule set for the arrival of Unit-03..." "Of all days, it's coming on this day." "The day they scheduled the Unit-03 activation test for is the day the teacher's pet had picked out." "Up we go!" "I see." "So you've settled on Asuka." "Yes, I'll head for Matsushiro on the last flight out." "I'll leave the rest to you, Maya." "Yes, ma'am!" "Um, Dr. Akagi?" "I'd like to get a message to the Second Girl." "Please." "You have one new message." "First message." "Here, Rei, you can talk now." "Damn it!" "Thank you." "What is she, an idiot?" "!" "I'm only doing this because I want to pilot the Eva." "If I like Unit-03, have it repainted red, okay?" "Good morning, Aida." "Hey yo." "Oh?" "Where's Toji?" "He's at the hospital in Odawara today." "He said his little sister's being discharged." "Oh, right." "Message for you from Toji." ""Don't ya worry 'bout it anymore." "My sis's grateful, too."" "That's what he said." "It's great how things have worked out, huh, Ikari?" "Yeah." "You've been invited over by Ayanami today, right?" "Talk about lucky, you bastard!" "Whoa!" "I can't breathe!" "Mission director of the manned activation testing of the Eva Unit-03 has arrived and is currently heading toward the main control room." "Temporary above-ground cage and restraint system checked." "No abnormalities detected." "Initiating hook-up of umbilical cable." "Connector contact verified." "Main power supply current switch complete." "Entry plug anchored in insertion position." "Checks done up through 1350 on the list." "No problems found." "Roger." "Resume the countdown." "Resuming countdown." "All ground crew personnel begin evacuation." "Test pilot medical checkups completed." "Currently standing by in mobile quarantine chamber." "Looks like I can hand over the rest to Ritsuko without any problems." "Maintenance Team 6, evacuation complete." "Secure line?" "From Asuka?" "What's up, Asuka?" "Thoughts before the show starts?" "I just felt like having a private chat with you for some reason." "I see." "I want to let you know again that I appreciate what you're doing today." "Thank you." "You don't need to thank me." "It's the duty of the elite to help the ignorant masses, that's all." "And I'm not big on eating with everyone anyway." "And it's exhausting to have to pretend you're enjoying yourself along with everyone else." "And I didn't want to have to sit around watching others be happy." "And all I care about is piloting the Eva." "And I like being by myself to begin with." "And I had no use for phony friends." "And there's never been anyone who's seen me for the real me." "And as long as I have the top performance scores," "I can make a living at Nerv." "But some things happened recently that made me think being around other people isn't all bad." "It's so not me, though." "That's not true." "Because you have a kind heart." "You're the first one I've ever talked to like this." "I feel better somehow." "It feels nice to talk to someone." "I had no idea." "This world is brimming full of fun things you have no idea about." "You should enjoy it." "Yeah, you're right." "Thank you, Misato." "By the way, it's great that it's red, but..." "Don't you think this plug suit for the test is too revealing?" "Begin entry sequence." "LCL ionization, pressure levels--status green." "Stage One Excited State holding steady." "All test monitoring devices operating normally." "Plug sensor, nominal." "Inspected values are within the error range." "Roger." "Shift to Phase 2 operations." "Initiate secondary connection." "I hadn't realized..." "I know how to laugh." "Plug depth is now over 100!" "Psychological contamination levels are now in the red zone!" "Why did it suddenly do this?" "!" "Pilot is descending below safe depths!" "Pull it back now!" "At this rate, the pilot will cease to be a human!" "Abort the test!" "Shut down all circuits!" "Negative!" "High energy readings within the Eva!" "It can't be...!" "An Angel?" "!" "An accidental explosion in Matsushiro?" "Damage report!" "Unknown." "The temporary cage appears to be the blast epicenter." "Destruction of above-ground control facilities confirmed." "Immediately dispatch Rescue and 3rd Units." "Get it resolved before the SSDF steps in." "Roger." "Unidentified moving object sighted southwest of the accident site." "Pattern is orange." "Unable to confirm whether it is an Angel." "Battle Stations, Condition One." "Ikari." "All personnel to Battle Stations, Condition One." "Place Unit-00 in for repairs on standby." "Launch Unit-01 as soon as it's been switched out to a dummy plug." "Deployment of 5th Tank Company to Defensive Line 18 complete." "Connection of main power extension cable to be complete in two minutes." "Backup mobile strike unit is in position." "Um, what about Miss Misato and Asuka and the others?" "Currently, all efforts are being made to rescue them." "Don't worry." "But..." "Miss Misato isn't here and with no other Eva..." "There's nothing I can do by myself." "Operationally, we're fine." "Commander Ikari is directing this operation himself right now." "Dad is?" "We have footage captured near Tomi." "Patching it through to main monitor." "Just as we had feared..." "Send shutdown signal." "Force eject the entry plug." "No good." "It isn't recognizing the shutdown or the plug ejection code." "Encroachment of a core-like substance confirmed near the entry plug area." "We have the pattern analysis." "It's blue." "As of this moment, we are scrapping Evangelion Unit-03." "Object under surveillance will be identified as the 9th Angel." "Target approaching." "Prepare to intercept ground-to-ground." "Blockade units, open fire!" "It can't be!" "An Angel?" "!" "This is an Angel?" "!" "That's right, that's your target." "Target?" "But this is an Eva!" "This can't be..." "The target is approaching." "You must defeat it." "You call it a target, but..." "Isn't Asuka on board?" "Asuka is..." "Damn it!" "The entry plug!" "So she is on board!" "Armor being corroded near cervical vertebrae!" "Contamination confirmed through Layer 6200!" "As we had feared, an invasive type." "This will be tricky." "Unit-01's AT field is unstable!" "Life support system malfunctioning!" "Any more of this and the pilot will be in danger!" "This is bad!" "Cut the neural connections to 28%!" "Wait." "But Ikari, the pilot will die at this rate!" "Shinji, why won't you fight?" "Because..." "Asuka's on board, Dad!" "It doesn't matter." "That's an Angel." "It's our enemy." "But I can't do it!" "I can't murder her!" "You're going to die." "I don't care!" "Better than killing Asuka!" "No matter." "Cut the pilot's synchronization with Unit-01 across the board." "Ikari?" "Cut it, sir?" "That's right." "Switch control over to the Dummy System." "But the Dummy System still has a lot of problems and without Dr. Akagi's instruction..." "It will be of more use than the current pilot." "Do it!" "Yes, sir." "What is this?" "What are you doing, Dad?" "!" "Main control system switchover complete." "Energy conduction efficiency is unimpeded." "All neural circuits directly connected to Dummy System." "AT field stable, recovered to Level B." "Dummy System operational time limit is a maximum of 208 seconds." "Fine." "Release the System." "Commence attack." "Is this the power of the Dummy System?" "Dummy System functioning normally." "Control limiters being released." "What is this, Dad?" "What is this?" "What are you doing?" "!" "Damn it!" "Stop!" "Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop..." "Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop stop, stop, stop!" "What's that sound?" "Don't do it!" "No!" "Found another one over here!" "A survivor!" "Team 3, delete the data from 807." "Quickly!" "Send a rescue team over here, stat!" "That's right." "Incinerate all surveillance recorders in the contaminated zone." "Close Route 18 to all traffic!" "Don't let the SSDF in for at least another ten minutes!" "I'm alive?" "Kaji?" "You were lucky, Katsuragi." "What about Ritsuko?" "No worries." "Her wounds were more minor than yours." "I see." "Asuka!" "What about Eva Unit-03?" "It was apparently disposed of... as an Angel." "By Unit-01." "Unit-01's synchronization circuits have been cut." "What about the ejection signal?" "It has been locked out from inside the plug." "He's literally locked himself in there." "Don't do this, Shinji!" "Think about what you're doing!" "Don't make me even angrier by saying things like that." "Unit-01 has 285 seconds left." "With that much time, I can destroy at least half of headquarters." "In his current state, he might very well do it." "Shinji, please listen to us!" "You may have been killed if Commander Ikari hadn't made his decision!" "That doesn't matter." "But it's the truth!" "I told you, that doesn't matter!" "Dad tried..." "That bastard tried to kill Asuka!" "Using me!" "Why?" "!" "Why?" "!" "Why did you do it?" "!" "You don't understand at all, Dad!" "I was a fool for trusting you!" "You should lose someone you care about, too, Dad!" "Then, you'd understand!" "Raise the LCL compression density right up to the limit." "What?" "!" "We have no time to put up with a child's tantrum." "I still have the direct control circuits..." "Damn it all!" "Damn it all..." "Ikari, you're always listening to that, aren't you?" "Yeah." "It's something Dad used to use." "Just like your glasses, Ayanami." "But he didn't need it anymore, so he left it behind." "Just like me." "It was at my teacher's place, so I took it." "When I close up my ears, I can close up my heart." "That way, I don't have to deal with the nasty world out there." "Nasty world?" "That's right." "The world where the father I hate lives." "The world where the scary Angels and Evas exist." "The world where I'm forced to do painful things." "The world where Dad doesn't need me as long as he has the Dummy." "The world where my friends get hurt." "Even so, good things happened, too." "But in the end, it all gets destroyed." "It's a nasty world." "I'm going to turn my back on it now." "I thought that if I did this, Dad would protect me from the nasty world." "I'd tricked myself into believing that." "Did you try to understand your father, Ikari?" "I did." "Are you sure you didn't just do nothing?" "I did try to understand him!" "My dad's the one in the wrong!" "He's the one who abandoned me!" "And so, you're running away from the things you don't like again." "So what?" "!" "What's wrong with running away from the things I don't like?" "!" "This place again." "I'm sick of this." "Verify all instructions on recovering fragments of Unit-03 with the Technology Division." "Her cellular tissue is clear of any trace of the invasion, but there's the possibility she was psychologically contaminated by the Angel." "We have no choice but to keep her under quarantine." "They wouldn't possibly do away with her, right?" "She's a valuable sample specimen." "They would never." "Come out, Shinji Ikari." "Commander Ikari will see you now." "Insubordination." "Seizing an Eva for your own personal use." "Making crude threats." "These are all criminal acts." "Do you have anything to say for yourself?" "Yes." "I do not want to pilot the Eva anymore." "I see." "Then leave." "Running away again?" "Your dreams are something you have to sacrifice everything for and attain for yourself." "No one will do it for you." "Grow up, Shinji." "I don't know what it's supposed to mean to be a grownup." "It's me." "Strike the Third Boy from the records." "From now on, the primary operator of Unit-01 will be the Dummy System." "No backup will be necessary." "I guess Rei didn't stop Shinji from leaving." "I was hoping she'd do something, since she'd shown signs of changing lately." "The relationships between those kids is unfathomable." "But now, we're back down to one pilot again." "Back to square one." "I'm sure you know this, but even though you've been stricken from Nerv's records, you'll still be under surveillance and your actions will be restricted pretty heavily." "You forgot this." "Suzuhara and Aida left you a lot of messages." "They're worried about you." "I don't really want it." "It's something I left behind." "You haven't asked after Rei or Asuka, either." "The truth is, maybe I don't care about humanity or the world, either." "Ultimately, I've ended up in my current position, but at first, I just wanted to get a little closer to my late father." "And that's why I signed up with Nerv." "Just like how you piloted the Eva because you wanted Commander Ikari to need you." "Which is why I found myself living vicariously through you." "And I know that you felt burdened by it." "I also know that you've become disillusioned with your purpose in piloting the Eva." "But even so, I want you to..." "That day..." "Rei had invited Commander Ikari, too." "She wanted you to become closer with your father." "She wanted you two to laugh together." "I'll never be able to laugh with anyone again." "The next stop is Kamigora." "Kamigora." "The exits will be to your left." "The Japanese government has declared a state of emergency." "In accordance with the emergency regulations, this train will stop at the nearest evacuation station." "After disembarking, please head straight for your designated platform and board the evacuation incline." "It's an Angel." "Eva Unit-02 containment measures have been unlocked." "Final safety systems have been disabled." "We are currently opening up Silo 2." "Core unit automatic reconfiguration sequence has begun." "Man, it's cold!" "There we go." "That's the new model for you!" "It even fits me perfectly in the chest." "Feels so good!" "The time has come." "All personnel, Battle Stations, Condition One." "Prepare to intercept ground-to-air." "Target's status?" "Currently advancing on us." "It has breached the Old Odawara defensive line." "This is no laughing matter if the shockwave can be felt all the way down here." "Direct hit on District 4." "Damages unknown." "Surface and all armor systems have been liquefied!" "All 24 layers of specialized armor with one strike?" "!" "The 10th Angel." "The most powerful rejection type..." "Its destructive power is greater than we'd imagined." "This is all-out war!" "Put all the fortified city's intercept equipment to specialized use!" "Hold it at bay, even if it's just for a little while!" "Eva Unit-02?" "!" "Who's piloting it?" "!" "Unknown!" "We did not order its launch!" "Target still active." "Second wave of attack had no effect." "I don't care!" "Evacuating the residents gets top priority!" "Authorizing third wave of guided N2 missiles!" "Send them in as direct support!" "If we send the Eva to the surface to intercept, it'll be too late." "Request Euro's cooperation." "Deploy Unit-02 to the Geofront." "How's Unit-00?" "Making emergency repairs to the left arm." "It'll be just good enough to launch." "Send it to back up Unit-02 as soon as it's done." "Going out there alone will be dangerous." "Roger!" "And Unit-01?" "Currently preparing to activate with the Dummy System." "Hurry it up!" "That's in the direction of the city, right?" "Oh, man, what's going on?" "It'll be fine." "We're headed straight for the Geofront shelter." "Phone's aren't working, either!" "The safest place in the world." "Target entering the Geofront!" "About to make contact with Eva Unit-02!" "Do we have communications with Unit-02?" "The two-way link has been cut." "Making contact from our end is..." "I see." "So you want to do this alone." "It smells so good." "An Eva that smells like someone else isn't bad, either." "It's already breached the fifth line of defense." "If I don't get this wrapped up quick, HQ is a goner!" "Its AT field's too strong." "I won't get anywhere from this distance." "Hup." "Ho." "Hah!" "Guess I'll make a go of it with this." "Let's see how you like this!" "If I get it from point-blank range..." "Oh, crap!" "Why you little...!" "Talk about a toughie!" "Dummy System connected." "Initiate contact." "Yes, ma'am." "What happened?" "The core unit has rejected the Dummy!" "It's no use!" "Unit-01 won't activate!" "It's refusing to accept the Dummy?" "Fuyutsuki." "Take care of things for a while." "Up we go." "I won't be able to win at this rate." "All right!" "Guess I'll give it a try." "I'm going to see what an Eva can do when it abandons its humanity." "Invert mode." "Backdoor code... "The Beast!"" "Bear with it, Eva Unit-02." "I'll bear with it, too." "I had no idea an Eva had such functionality!" "The restrictors are being disengaged!" "All readings are outside the standard range!" "Unable to monitor plug interior!" "But..." "Plug depth is likely in the negative range." "To think she's even willing to plunge into the contamination zone..." "We can't allow this!" "It's too dangerous!" "Nothing ventured, nothing gained!" "Just a little more!" "The Eva's bestial second form." "Even when it abandoned its humanity and focused solely on combat, it couldn't win." "So this is the limit of our capabilities." "Unit-00?" "!" "She doesn't even have a rifle!" "Don't tell me...!" "Rei, don't!" "Rei!" "AT field at maximum!" "I'll make it so Ikari never has to pilot the Eva again!" "So, I'll..." "A single Eva won't be able to get through that AT field." "Unit-02, this is your final task!" "Just one more layer!" "Run, Unit-02 pilot." "Thank you." "Where's Unit-00?" "This shelter has been designated as being in an unsafe area." "Please evacuate to a safe area at once." "I repeat." "This shelter..." "Ow, that hurt..." "I almost wound up dead there." "Oh?" "What are you doing here?" "I was wondering where the other unit was." "Now I know." "I..." "I made up my mind not to pilot it anymore." "Questioning whether to pilot an Eva or not?" "I had no idea anyone ever agonized over something like that." "Then you should just get out of here already." "Here, I'll help you." "I made up my mind not to pilot it." "I made up my mind not to pilot it." "I made up my mind not to pilot it." "But you know..." "There's no fun in being all twisted and sorry for yourself." "This can't be!" "An Angel devouring an Eva?" "That's impossible!" "Something's strange." "The target's ID signal is switching over to that of Unit-00!" "We've been had!" "The Dogma won't self-destruct now, even if the Angel enters!" "It'll be able to get to Lilith with ease." "It's merging with Unit-00." "It assimilated the Eva, pilot and all." "You're going to end up dead, too." "Hurry up and run." "Aw, there he goes..." "Above-ground HQ facilities annihilated!" "Foundation 3 has suffered a direct hit!" "Final armor plating has been liquefied!" "No!" "The main shaft is completely exposed!" "Is Unit-01 still not ready?" "Unable to anchor plug in place!" "Dummy System rejecting connection signal!" "It's no use!" "The reset isn't working!" "Keep going." "Start over again from 308." "List 308, begin checking." "Why?" "Why do you reject me, Yui?" "Please let me pilot it!" "Let me..." "Let me pilot Unit-01!" "What are you doing here?" "Dad!" "I am the Evangelion Unit-01 pilot," "Shinji Ikari!" "Target descending through Terminal Dogma, Layer 7!" "Target has passed Layer 7!" "It's coming here!" "Evacuate noncombatants!" "Emergency evacuation of noncombatants!" "I repeat." "Emergency evacuation of noncombatants!" "Hurry!" "Eva Unit-01?" "!" "Shinji!" "Miss Misato!" "Disengage all locks!" "I'm out of power?" "Unit-01 has reached its operational limit!" "The auxiliary is down, too!" "Shinji!" "Shinji!" "Give back Ayanami!" "It's moving...?" "But it's supposed to be at its operational limit..." "Has it gone berserk?" "I don't know what in the world is happening to Unit-01." "The Eva has powers like that?" "Unit-01 is transcending the limits of humanity?" "Plug depth is over 180!" "He's already in danger!" "Stop this, Shinji!" "You won't be able to come back to humanity!" "I don't care what happens to me." "I don't care what happens to the world." "But Ayanami..." "If it's the last thing I do," "I'm saving Ayanami, no matter what!" "Go, Shinji!" "Misato?" "!" "Don't do it for someone else!" "Do it for the sake of what you want yourself!" "Where are you, Ayanami?" "!" "It's no use." "I can only survive in here now." "Ayanami?" "!" "It's okay, Ikari." "Even if I disappear, there are replacements." "There are replacements." "You're wrong!" "You're the only Ayanami there is!" "So I'm going to save you now!" "Oh no!" "The restrictors regulating its shape are gone!" "Unable to analyze!" "The Eva we had contained with the bounds of humanity is reclaiming its rightful shape." "Breaking free of humanity's spell, it's transcending humanity, turning into a nearly divine being." "Inside the huge swells of complementarity, it's binding together the heavens, the earth, and all creation, transforming into an energy condensate." "Purely to grant the wish of a human being." "For that and nothing else." "Ayanami!" "Ayanami!" "Ayanami!" "Come on!" "They forced Unit-01 to become the catalyst before they had their pieces in place." "Commander Ikari, Seele isn't going to take this lying down." "I want to spread my wings in this big open sky" "Just as we had thought, between those two, they were able to awaken Unit-01." "Yes." "We have just a little more to go until we attain our plan." "Ayanami, thank you for the thing with my dad." "I'm sorry, I wasn't able to do anything." "It doesn't matter now." "This is enough." "Now I see..." "He gets all the breaks." "I wonder if it's the difference in smell, after all." "This is the birth of a new lifeform that's grown beyond this world's Logos." "And as the price for that..." "...all life forms of old shall perish." "Wings..." "Just like the ones 15 years ago..." "Yes, the continuation of the Second Impact..." "The Third Impact is beginning!" "The world is ending." "What in the world was that?" "!" "Now, the promised time has come, Shinji Ikari." "This time for sure," "I'll make you happy, if no one else."
