"huh? and the buses and trains are shut down too." "I guess it'll be impossible to meet her now." "I've got no choice." "I should head to a shelter." "All missiles have hit the target!" "Sorry I made you wait!" "The target is still unharmed." "It's continuing to advance towards Tokyo-3." "The Air Force is unable to stop it!" "Throw everything at it!" "Have even the 4th Division open fire!" "Spare no expense!" "Destroy the target at all costs!" "How the hell?" "!" "We made direct hits!" "The tank battalion was completely destroyed." "Missiles and artillery are useless..." "It's pointless!" "This type of firepower's not going to get us anywhere!" "it has an AT Field after all?" "Yes..." "Conventional weapons are useless against an Angel." "Understood." "We'll deploy it according to plan." "No way... it can't be...!" "They're going to use an N2 Mine?" "!" "Get down!" "We did it!" "It seems you won't be needed this time." "Shockwave incoming!" "Are you okay?" "Yeah... but I think I got some sand in my mouth." "help me out..." "Get ready..." "And PUSH!" "Thanks!" "Couldn't have done it myself." "Katsuragi-san." "alright?" "Ikari Shinji-kun." "Yeah." "What is the target's status?" "the target cannot be confirmed." "it must be obliterated." "Restoring visual." "And that was our trump card..." "How is this possible..." "Goddamn monster!" "Thank God my Renault still works!" "since I've still got 12 payments left on the lease... so we might still make it in time!" "Shinji-kun?" "N-no." "you know!" "Sorry... What's going on here?" "those sorts of things?" "well... since I didn't think you'd give me an answer anyway." "don't you?" "not teenagers!" "It's okay. {I don't care.}" "I'm just following my directions." "Oh?" "... never mind then." "that thing was a mysterious life form we call an "Angel." "The 4th Angel..." "It possesses an astounding regenerative capacity." "it is a nearly-perfect living creature." "Of course it can regenerate." "you mean?" "who partook of the Fruit of Wisdom." "The gate is closing." "Please be careful." "Secret Military Agency NERV"...?" "it's a private organization under the direct control of the U.N.." "That's where my father is?" "yeah..." "Do you know what your dad's job is?" "Work of utmost importance in the protection of humanity." "That's what my teacher said." "you will be in command of this operation." "Show us what you can do." "Understood." "I have to admit that nothing in our arsenal is effective against the target." "So you claim you can defeat this thing?" "NERV exists for that very purpose." "Are we going to where my father is?" "I imagine he'll be there." "Father... did your father send you an ID card?" "yeah." "Here you go." "Thanks." "read this please." "NERV." "My father's work." "Is there something I'm needed for?" "Of course." "He wouldn't send me a letter if he didn't need me for something." "you don't get along with your father." "me neither." "Amazing!" "A real GeoFront!" "That's right." "And that is our secret base;" "NERV Headquarters." "the cornerstone to rebuilding our world." "Go north to the 3rd gate and take a right." "we need to take Route 8..." "Could they have made this facility any more complicated?" "Hmm... this looks like the correct route... are we lost?" "I'm just not used to this place yet." "if we keep heading forward we'll eventually get there!" "Secondary cooling cycle complete." "evacuate the tank immediately." "I want the left arm's conductive plating defrosted and ready to go within the next three minutes!" "And don't forget that apoptosis data!" "Roger!" "have arrived at Shaft S36." "What a surprise." "She's late yet again." "Ah..." "Ritsuko!" "Lt. Colonel Katsuragi." "We're short on staff and out of time." "Eh..." "Sorry!" "Is this the boy?" "Yup." "Akagi Ritsuko." "It's nice to meet you." "M-me too." "I'll leave things here to you." "It'll be their first meeting in 3 years..." "Deputy Commander!" "The target has begun to move!" "Understood." "Level One battle stations!" "Level One battle stations!" "prepare for combat!" "there's something I want to show you." "Evangelion." "That is Unit 01." "Mankind's very last trump card." "This is my father's work?" "Correct." "It's been a while." "Father..." "Prepare to sortie." "Sortie?" "!" "isn't it?" "Unless..." "You intend to use Unit 01?" "There is no other choice." "Ikari Shinji-kun...?" "Y-Yes?" "You will pilot it." "Father?" "For the same reason you're thinking." "I'm supposed to pilot this and fight that thing I just saw outside?" "Correct." "I don't want to!" "What are you saying all of a sudden?" "!" "I thought you didn't need me!" "That's why you left!" "so I called for you." "Why... me?" "Because no one else can." "I can't do it..." "I've never seen or heard of this thing." "I just can't!" "We'll explain it to you." "No..." "I can't do it!" "There's no way I can do this!" "do it now." "If not..." "Leave!" "we've been found..." "Armored hulls 1 through 8 have been breeched!" "there isn't much time." "Widespread fire alarms in Block D. Closing all fire doors in the area." "Pilot it!" "No!" "I came all this way... but this is impossible!" "why did you come here?" "yourself." "I know that!" "But I just can't do this!" "Fuyutsuki." "Wake up Rei." "Can we use her?" "She's not dead." "Understood." "Rei." "Yes." "The backup is useless." "We need you once more." "Yes." "Switch Unit 01's core unit to the L-00 type and reactivate it!" "Roger." "Suspending current tasks." "Reactivating." "Entering reactivation command." "I knew it." "I was never needed..." "and is proceeding to head right above us." "Are you alright?" "I mustn't run away..." "I mustn't run away!"

"Shinji-kun... just concentrate on walking." "Walk..." "It walked!" "Walk... stay alert!" "Hurry..." "Hurry and get back up!" "calm down!" "It's not really your arm that's being hurt!" "What happened to Eva's defensive systems?" "Signal inactive!" "The field isn't expending." "It's not working?" "The left arm is damaged!" "Circuits are going off-line!" "dodge!"

"The Eva has reactivated!" "Impossible..." "It should be knocked out!" "Has it gone..." "Berserk?" "!" "We've won." "An AT-Field?" "It's pointless." "Unless the AT Field is breached you can't do anything to an Angel." "Left arm restored!" "Amazing!" "Unit 01 has also raised an AT-Field!" "Angel phase space is being neutralized." "No." "It's corroding it." "It broke through that AT-Field like it was nothing..." "What is Eva's status?" "Is this Eva's..." "True form?" "Have you decided on a name?" "then Rei." "Shinji..." "Rei..." "Shinji... \alphaH00)}Ayanami." "Shinji..." "Rei... \alphaH00)}Ikari...?" "Rei..." "No... \alphaH00)}Rei!" "An unfamiliar ceiling... and its defeat..." "Then the acquisition of the Third Child..." "And the activation of Eva Unit 01..." "Overall the plan is progressing well." "except for the colossal expense necessary to repair Unit 01. that is hardly a problem." "Eva Unit 01's recovery operation is complete." "it's being locked into Cage 6." "A full-systems check will commence at 10:00 hours." "And the recording from when it went berserk?" "It was blank." "Absolutely nothing was recorded." "we have no idea what the cause was." "Our absolute confidence in its combat performance... may be a bit misplaced." "minor bugs are tolerable." "No need for concern." "We'll continue deployment of Unit 01." "And Unit 02 and its pilot in Germany are under deployment qualification exams." "The construction of Unit 03 is also progressing as planned." "It's your responsibility to make proper use of NERV and the Evas." "We earnestly hope you will not disappoint us." "That's right." "Defeating the Angels is but one step in fulfilling our contract with Lilith." "The Human Instrumentality Project..." "Its execution is our ultimate goal." "I understand." "Everything will go according to SEELE's scenario." "An Angel leaves quite a mark when it's destroyed after it loses its AT Field." "The blood is like a lake from hell..."

"Paging Chief Internist Dr. Ugai." "Dr. Ugai." "Please contact Dr. Azuma in the Emergency Surgical Ward as soon as possible." "according to schedule." "Would the event directors please make their way to conference room 2?" "Thank you." "Alone?" "he's been assigned quarters in Block 6." "That all right?" "Yes." "Is that really okay?" "Shinji-kun?" "It's fine." "I'm always alone." "It's always the same wherever I go." "What?" "!" "I'm taking Shinji back to my place to live with me." "I have authorization from above." "I wouldn't lay a hand on a little boy like him." "what are you thinking?" "!" "Don't even say things like this!" "She could never take a joke... we're gonna having a party tonight!" "What for?" "of course!" "So you've decided to move?" "I never thought this city would become a battlefield." "Indeed!" "My husband wants me and the children to leave here too!" "over 100 people left the city." "but those people at NERV seem rather incompetent." "I get chills just thinking about what happened yesterday." "I know... but we're going to take a slight detour." "Where to?" "Someplace special." "This city... doesn't it?" "It's time." "Amazing..." "Buildings are sprouting out of the ground!" "This is the special fortress-city for intercepting Angels." "Tokyo-3." "This is our city..." "And the city that you protected." "Looks like your things have already been delivered." "I've only moved to this city recently." "come on in." "Um..." "Pardon the intrusion." "this is your home now." "I'm..." "I'm home." "Welcome home." "Ah yeah... but try to ignore it." "Is this a little?" "could you put the food in the fridge please?" "sure!" "Ice..." "Snacks..." "And nothing but beer?" "What kind of life does she lead?" "Let's dig in!" "Let's eat..." "I love it!" "This is what makes life worth living!" "it's pretty good." "Well..." "I'm just not used to this sort of meal." "No!" "You just can't be so picky!" "that's not it..." "Um..." "Isn't this fun...?" "Having a meal with another person?" "Uh... yes." "All right!" "feel free to just let loose!" "Y-Yes... yes." is getting on my nerves... will you!" "Yes." "whatever." "all those bad feelings will just wash away in an instant!" "Bathing lets you wash your life anew." "M-M-Misato-san!" "What?" "him?" "He's my pet bird." "They call them hot spring penguins." "Birds like that actually exist?" "!" "They used to be a lot more common 15 years ago." "His name is Pen-pen." "He'll be your other roommate in this house." "Anyway... shouldn't you be covering that?" "Maybe I'm being overly flamboyant... he might be able to see right through me." "Katsuragi Misato-san..." "She's not a bad person." "Bathing lets you wash your life anew!" "I tend to remember bad things when I'm in a bath..." "How was Rei doing?" "no?" "There are no problems." "Preparing to restart the frozen Unit 00 is more important." "Are you sure about using your son?" "His mental state seems to be very unstable." "Don't worry about him." "His condition will give us the perfect pretext to reinstate Unit 00." "then." "they suddenly selected him as the Third Child." "the Fourth Angel attacks." "Commander Ikari forces his son to pilot." "I certainly feel very uneasy about that fact..." "I feel surprisingly... unhappy." "Another unfamiliar ceiling..." "No surprise..." "Nothing about this city is familiar." "This is your home now." "Why am I even here?" "Shinji-kun?" "I'm coming in." "I forgot to tell you something." "You've done a wonderful thing worth praising today." "You should be proud." "Shinji-kun." "Hang in there." "transfer kid." "I had to hit ya." "To settle the score with you." "Real sorry." "That guy's little sister was injured in that big incident the other day." "That's just how it is with him." "It's not like I piloted it because I wanted to." "How is this something people would praise me for?" "Why do I have to get hit just because I piloted the Eva?" "Shinji-kun?" "Yes." "Within each Angel there is a central core." "The only way to defeat an Angel directly is to destroy that core." "then pull the trigger." "you can dispose of them accurately if you master the process." "Okay." "Good." "Continue practicing like this in induction mode." "Okay." "I'm quite surprised Shinji-kun suddenly changed his mind about piloting... doesn't he?" "then pull the trigger." "then pull the trigger." "then pull the trigger." "then pull the trigger." "Which reminds me..." "Wasn't Shinji-kun hit by one of his classmates at his new school?" "Is our pilot security sufficient?" "There's no problem with our intelligence department's surveillance." "it wasn't very bad." "It would better if we stayed out of his private life." "Doesn't he live with you?" "you know." "That's just it." "It's difficult..." "He's far more naïve than I expected." "complaining already?" "You were the one who was so adamant about taking him in." "you." "he doesn't have much of a personality for making friends." "Have you heard of the "Hedgehog's dilemma"?" "Hedgehog?" "The little spiky things?" "Hedgehogs have a hard time sharing warmth with other hedgehogs." "the more they hurt each other." "People are like that as well." "Like with Shinji-kun right now." "the more afraid he becomes." "eventually he'll realize." "Becoming an adult means drawing close and growing apart over and over and discovering the way to avoid wounding one another." "I certainly hope so." "when are we gonna get budget approval to upgrade Block B here?" "Eva's maintenance and armaments are the top priority." "Maybe there's no money left?" "My ass is freezing!" "An emergency call..." "I'll go on ahead." "We have direct visual of inbound object." "E747 has also confirmed the object." "Analysis indicates Pattern Blue." "There's no doubt." "It's the fifth Angel." "level one battle stations!" "ground-to-air missiles ready!" "." "Tokyo-3 entering combat configuration." "Retracting central block." "Center block and Districts One through Seven's retraction is complete." "All governmental departments have been notified." "Target continuing inbound movement." "The anti-air interception system is 48% activated." "Status of noncombatants and civilians?" "We've already received a complete evacuation report." "please gather in your designated blocks." "There is a lost child at shelter number 323 in Sector Seven." "It's happening again." "Just text again?" "They're controlling the broadcast." "They won't show us regular citizens anything." "Not even a big event like this!" "This is a waste of tax money." "Some people just aren't happy unless they burn through some ammo." "The Japanese government is demanding we send out the Evangelion." "How annoying." "It's not like we weren't going to do that without their orders." "We've started the entry." "Ionizing LCL." "Father's not even watching me..." "Why am I piloting this again?" "People hate me for this... alone." "What about?" "okay?" "alright... and then" "Class Rep!" "What?" "both need to take a leak!" "make it quick!" "what's this about?" "I want to see it at least once before I die!" "That battle up there?" "who knows when I'll get another chance... what is it with you?" "you may waste everything." "Come on..." "Just help me get past the gate." "aren't you?" "are you ready for launch?" "Yes." "Remember." "Continuous Gatling gun fire as you neutralize its AT Field." "Just like in practice." "You'll be fine." "Yes..." "Launch!" "Incredible!" "This was worth the trouble!" "Yes!" "This is what I've been waiting for!" "It's here." "then pull the trigger." "Expanding A.T. Field." "then pull the trigger." "Shinji-kun?" "Yes." "Idiot!" "All that smoke is obscuring the target!" "The heck?" "He's gettin' his ass kicked!" "He's fine!" "We're sending up a spare rifle!" "Grab it!" "Shinji-kun...?" "Shinji-kun?" "!" "Oh man..." "Your beating must have shaken him up." "Sh-Shut up!" "Umbillical Cable has been severed!" "Eva switching to internal power supply!" "Operational time remaining is 4 minutes 53 seconds!" "It's coming this way!" "are you all right?" "!" "Shinji-kun!" "Damage report?" "No problems." "He's good to go." "Shinji-kun's classmates?" "!" "What are they doing there?" "!" "Why isn't he fighting back?" "!" "Maybe he can't move freely... because we're here!" "?" "Unit 01 will reach operational time limit in 3 minutes 28 seconds!" "58%." "let those two into the cockpit!" "get out of there!" "We'll start over afterwards." "quickly!" "What the" " Is this water?" "!" "My camera!" "My camera!" "System restarting." "Palm surface meltdown has reached the 3rd protective layer!" "Now's your chance!" "Retreat!" "Use escape route 34." "Retreat on the eastern side of the mountain." "she said "retreat!" "I mustn't run away..." "I mustn't run away..." "I mustn't run away..." "Transfer kid!" "Progressive Knife equipped!" "listen to my order!" "Fall back now!" "Shinji-kun!" "That idiot!" "Unit 01 will reach operational time limit in 30 seconds." "26... 22..." "10... 5... 1..." "Eva Unit 01 has ceased operation." "Target has completely disintegrated." "Why did you ignore my orders?" "I'm sorry." "am I not?" "Yes." "It's your duty to follow the orders I give you." "Do you understand?" "Yes." "Make sure this doesn't happen again." "Yes." "Do you really understand what I'm telling you?" "Misato-san." "didn't we?" "I'll pilot it if you tell me to." "Isn't that what you want?" "That's enough." "Go back and get some rest." "Next stop is Nagao Pass." "Nagao Pass." "Please exit to the right." "He doesn't plan on coming home..." "That idiot." "Ikari Shinji." "and he's already absent?" "I'll hand back the tests from the other day." "I've had enough of this!" "Please take me back to Misato-san!" "Ikari Shinji-kun?" "Not really." "It didn't really matter." "Nothing does." "I don't have any freedom anyway." "do I?" "after all." "Fine." "I'll pilot it." "that's what I'll do." "but what about yourself?" "too." "and you and father want..." "Cut it out!" "This has nothing to do with anyone else!" "You need to decide if you want to be the pilot for the Eva." "You're free to go if you want to." "You have all the freedom you want." "Do as you please!" "your son's actions followed the plan to the letter." "Yes." "Next we must make him and Rei get closer." "All is according to plan." "A scenario written out 14 years ago. {The scenario written out 14 years ago?" "}" "These poor children's fates have already been determined." "Don't you find that a bit harsh?" "hurry it up!" "And don't hold back!" "I won't feel like it's settled!" "that's just the kind of straightforward guy he is." "I'm counting on you." "Ikari." "Kayoko!" "you're buying us a pizza!" "go!" "In your dreams!" "Please!" "Give me one more chance!" "the boys are peeping!" "Pervs!" "That's naughty!" "Suzuhara's gaze is so lewd!" "Ikari-kun~!" "age 14." "She was the first candidate chosen by the Marduk Institute." "The First Child." "Unit 00." "Her personal history is blank." "Completely erased." "my father..." "Critical error in startup system!" "Failures in Stage 3 routines!" "Nervous system elements rejected." "The main transmission system is scrambled!" "It's overflowing!" "Neural pulse flow reversing!" "I'm unable to stop it!" "down!" "Entry plug unstable." "Eva is refusing to release it!" "Abort contacts." "Close off all circuits up to number six." "I can't!" "The signal won't go through!" "Unit 00 is out of control!" "Abort the test." "Cut all power." "sir!" "Unit 00 has switched to auxiliary power." "35 seconds to total system shutdown." "Failsafe system has yet to activate." "It's dangerous!" "Please step back!" "The auto-eject has activated!" "Oh no!" "We still cannot control Unit 00!" "release specialized Bakelite!" "Rei!" "Ten seconds to complete shutdown!" "5... 1." "Unit 00 has ceased all activity." "are you alright?" "Rei!" "That's good." "It was so sudden." "I couldn't believe it." "but it's an undisputed fact." "and is still being unfrozen." "Isn't that a bit hasty?" "The Angels have reappeared." "It's our top priority to reinforce our military strength." "but..." "We've already run reactivation tests with Rei." "Unit 00 itself is ready." "Once the adjustments to the nerve connections are complete." "isn't it?" "Ayanami..." "Why is she always alone?" "Eva Unit 01 is beginning third coolant phase." "Please set all systems in Cage 6 to phase three." "Copying the all-range data of the entry plug to Melchior." "Data sent." "Begin third cooling phase." "Copying situation data from Casper to Melchior." "8." "It's within acceptable measurement range." "T-minus 150 minutes to Unit 00's conductive systems restart and testing." "Program 508 is now complete." "Shinji-kun." "what's it like living with him?" "It's alright." "I'm getting used to it." "Still a little nervous?" "is it?" "This isn't like 8 years ago." "it's not an intimate relationship." "I don't know about that... isn't he?" "You're wrong there." "It's probably because his father's here." "He wants his father to acknowledge him." "To pat him on the shoulder." "even if it's just one word." "I think he wants a love that will wipe away his loneliness." "Misato." "I wonder why Commander Ikari acts so distant with his own son." "And it looks like he talks to Rei a lot." "It's a terrible balance." "it seems like men have no interest in anything other than themselves." "isn't it?" "then..." "It's about time." "I have to head back." "as always. ...and Ayanami Rei's renewed card." "I forgot about these." "Could you ask Shinji to give this to her?" "Alright." "Ayanami Rei..." "Why was father smiling with her...?" "Why won't he smile for me?" "Excuse me... it's Ikari!" "I'm coming in." "Could these be Ayanami's?" "no..." "Um..." "I...!" "I didn't mean to..." "Could you move?" "U-um...!" "What is it?" "Um..." "I was..." "Um..." "That is..." "I..." "I was asked to..." "I mean..." "The uhhh..." "The card!" "The c-card was renewed and... and I c-came to deliver it..." "So..." "So..." "It's not like I was trying to..." "Ritsuko-san said she forgot to give it to you." "Honestly." "so..." "Offices in the Central Dogma are currently accessible." "Group 3 visitors are requested to please use Direct Gate 4." "Ayanami." "Ritsuko-san left it with me." "Sorry about before." "What for?" "Ayanami..." "Aren't you afraid?" "About piloting that Evangelion again." "Why should I be?" "I heard you got hurt in that test..." "So..." "Are you really okay?" "Yes." "I'm okay." "But... aren't you afraid it will go berserk again?" "Or we could lose to an Angel and die!" "aren't you?" "You don't have faith in your father's work?" "Of course not!" "Not from a father like him." "Um..." "Monitored object is proceeding past the Odawara defense Line." "Object analysis complete." "Pattern blue." "Angel confirmed." "As we thought." "The 6th Angel." "Yes." "Prepare Unit 01 for sortie." "Prepare to launch Unit 01!" "Anti-air interception weapons armed." "The target is passing above Lake Ashinoko." "Evangelion Unit 01 is ready to launch!" "Launch!" "High energy reaction detected inside the target!" "What?" "!" "Don't tell me...!" "Get out of there!" "Lower synchronization rate to minimum!" "Deploy blast shield!" "Abort intercept!" "Begin emergency recovery of Unit 01!" "We can't!" "The catapult has melted." "It's unusable!" "What about the AT-Field?" "but barely!" "No!" "No more of this!" "father!" "Abort the operation!" "Place top priority on the pilot's safety!" "Force eject the plug!" "That won't do." "Eva's AT-Field will completely disappear!" "Things will go from bad to worse." "But..." "There's no other choice..." "Emergency recovery!" "Blow the explosive bolts!" "The target has ceased fire." "Unit 01 retrieved." "Sending to Cage 99!" "stand by!"

"The target is currently invading from above." "It's in the midst of drilling through to the Geo-Front." "is it?" "let's hear the results of each department's analysis." "Judging from the previous battle the target automatically engages any enemy within a certain range." "right?" "How's its AT Field?" "Still operational." "And to make matters worse... the field's surface is unstable." "Neutralizing it will be very difficult." "According to Magi's calculations... we'd need to drop so many aerial N2 Mines that it would destroy NERV HQ as well." "The Magi 2 at Matsushiro reached the same conclusion." "the Japanese government and U.N. Forces are petitioning NERV HQ to do just that." "An easy suggestion to make when they're not the ones in danger." "then all is lost." "the drill has already breached the second layer of armor plating." "It's already begun penetrating the third. is 12:06:54 AM tomorrow morning." "We have ten hours and fourteen minutes." "Unit 00 needs to be calibrated before it's operational." "Unit 01 is also currently unmovable due to its previous injury." "The situation sure isn't favorable." "We're certainly backed into a corner." "Should we wave the white flag?" "I have a little something I'd like to try." "right?" "Operations Chief Katsuragi." "Reckless" is a bit rude." "and it's the best shot we've got." "Operation Yashima... we'll be taking electrical power from all over Japan." "a high power positron cannon." "it's been modified for Eva to control it." "too?" "Let's just say they owe me a few favors." "a professional knows their field the best. many potientail renderings from this...} the entire country will experience a large-scale blackout." "We ask for everyone's cooperation." "I repeat... the entire country will experience a large-scale blackout." "We ask for everyone's cooperation." "Alright." "Let's go." "Yeah." "the entire country will experience a large-scale blackout." "We ask for everyone's cooperation." "The Angel has penetrated through the 7th armored plate!" "What's the status of our energy system?" "Power will be fed directly from the Shingotenba substation and two backup generators!" "Superconductor power lines now being laid towards lower Futagoyama."

"We'll have no trouble making it by the operation start time." "What is Unit 01's status?" "It's currently being outfitted with G-type sniping equipment." "It will be ready to deploy in two hours." "Roger that!" "All that's left now is the pilot." "But I wonder..." "Will he be willing to pilot it again?" "What do you plan to do about Unit 01's pilot?" "It's too soon to test the dummy plug system." "We have no other practical means other than letting the current pilot handle it." "do we brainwash him?" "there's always Rei." "Rei in Unit 01?" "Isn't that a bit too risky?" "We must use whatever means are available to us." "We still have eight Angels we must defeat." "we realize our goal..." "I hate it... piloting the Eva." "no one praises me for doing it." "I could just die." "Why am I even here?" "I thought things would change here." "That maybe good things would happen." "I didn't come here to be put through hell." "So you plan to spend the rest of your life running away from everything unpleasant?" "Live?" "anyway?" "I used to think I didn't have a choice in the matter. {} no one really needs me." "there would be no need for me." "That's why I have no choice but to pilot Eva." "That's why I'm able to stay here." "I..." "This ceiling again..." "Is this all I get for piloting that thing?" "Ayanami...?" "You were here the whole time?" "which will commence at midnight tomorrow." "Pilots Ikari and Ayanami are to report at Terminal 2 at 19:30." "will be transferred." "Launch is scheduled at 20:05." "they will arrive at the 2nd Futagoyama fortress." "they will await further orders." "the operation will begin." "Your food." "I don't feel like eating anything." "We leave in 90 minutes." "You're saying I'll be piloting that thing again?" "Yes." "I don't want to." "I don't want to feel that scared anymore." "It's terrifying...!" "But I can't even run away..." "You're afraid of Eva?" "Then stay and rest." "Rest?" "I will pilot Unit 01." "Ayanami!" "Farewell." "The Angel is penetrating through the 17th armored plate!"

"All mega-high voltage superconductor transformers' opening and closing checks complete." "No problems." "So this is the giant positron cannon?" "but theoretically it should work." "We're zeroing the alignment on our end and getting it ready to link with the G-type equipment." "the rest is up to you." "You mean up to the pilot." "I sure hope this works." "you were supposed to report long ago." "didn't you?" "Then do your job properly." "I'm afraid of piloting the Eva..." "You and the others have nothing to be afraid of." "You're always just giving orders from your base underground." "I'm the only one experiencing these terrifying things." "You all are hypocrites." "Come with me for a sec. half of humanity died in the Second Impact. humanity will die out." "No one will survive." "I've heard this story countless times already." "If an Angel ever reaches Level EEE of NERV Headquarters... an automatic self-destruct would commence." "We will sacrifice ourselves to prevent the Third Impact from happening." "Everyone who works here understands and accepts that risk." "This is..." "It can't be..." "An Eva...!" "?" "and the agent of its extinction..." "Lilith." "Lilith...?" "Yes." "Some believe it will act as the trigger for the Third Impact." "We fight with the Evas to protect Lilith." "That is something that only you can do." "We're entrusting the future of humanity to you and the Eva." "And why give me that painful responsibility?" "that's all." "Shinji-kun." "We all are." "I'll pilot it... one more time..." "I will now inform you of your roles in this operation." "Shinji-kun." "Yes?" "You will act as gunner in Unit 01." "Yes." "you and Unit 00 will be on defense." "Yes." "The operation this time calls for utmost precision." "even though it's still undergoing repairs." "Shinji-kun." "the positron cannon won't fire straight." "Don't forget to take those factors into account." "You must strike the core in a single shot." "But I don't know where this one's core is." "Don't worry." "There's a portion that materializes during its attack phase." "We believe that's where its core is located." "will all be inputted by us." "and fire when the center indicators meet." "The machine will handle the rest." "However only one spot has been set up to supply all of this power." "Unit 01 cannot change its firing position." "then?" "Correct." "and the Angel shoots back?" "Don't concern yourself with unnecessary thoughts now." "Focus on destroying the target in one shot." "huh?" "I..." "I am supposed to protect Unit 01?" "Yes." "Understood." "get dressed." "Yes." "Yes." "You know... we might die this time." "No." "You won't die." "I will protect you." "I'm not worth protecting..." "This message was left at NERV Public Affairs Dept." "Um..." "This is Suzuhara." "let me call you Shinji." "we're counting on you!" "this is Aida." "do your best!" "why do you pilot your Eva?" "Because of my bond." "Your bond?" "Yes." "My bond." "With my father?" "With everyone." "Ayanami." "I don't have anything else." "It's time." "Let's go." "Farewell." "it has just passed midnight." "It's time." "I am grateful." "Thank you."
