"You can't be sure about that y et." "If it doesn't pay off, it's a waste all the same." "Correct."

"H is cranial nerves must have taken a lot of strain." "Don't y ou mean his heart?" "Okay, go on." "Yeah, that way ." "Stop." "If Eva and this city both operate at their f ull potential, may be we can make it through this." "Are y ou going to def eat the Angels?" "You're alway s such an optimist."

"And being together is unnatural?" "Alone?" "Right." "H is room will be in the Sixth Block, just bey ond this one." "is that satisf actory?" "is that satisf actory?" "Yes." "Are y ou sure?" "Shinji..." "It's f ine." "Being alone is okay with me." "I'm alone anyway ." "What?" "!" "So, I said, I'll take care of Shinji." "So, I said, I'll take care of Shinji." "I've already got permission f rom the brass." "Hey, it's not like I'm going to "put the moves" on him." "Of course y ou're not!" "How could y ou even think of such a thing?" "You're alway s like that." "Shame on y ou!" "You're alway s like that." "Shame on y ou!" "Well, we'll have to have a party tonight, right?" "What for?" "What f or?" "A welcoming party f or my new roommate, of course!" "What f or?" "A welcoming party f or my new roommate, of course!" "So, y ou're going to move after all?" "Yes. I'd never have dreamt that this city would become a battlef ield." "Yeah." "My husband's say ing that our kid and I should move, at the very least." "Don't I know it." "This city may be a f ortress, but that's no guarantee of saf ety ." "J ust remembering it gives me the chills." "Really ." "I hope y ou don't mind if we make a little stop on the way ." "Where?" "Someplace really cool." "So desolate." "This city seems so lonely ." "It's time." "Amazing !" "The buildings are growing !" "This city is a f ortress, designed to protect against the Angels." "This is Toky o 3." "This is our city ." "And it's the city that y ou saved." "Your things should have already been delivered, Shinji." "I just moved into this apartment too." "Come on in." "Pardon the intrusion." "Shinji, this is y our home now." "I'm home." "Welcome home." "As y ou can see, the place is a little bit messy ." "Make y ourself comf ortable." "You call this a "little bit" messy?" "Oh!" "Sorry !" "Could y ou put the f ood in the f ridge?" "Sure." "Ice, snacks and tons of beer." "What kind of a lif e does she lead?" "Ex cuse me." "What's in the other f ridge?" "Oh, don't mind that." "He's probably still sleeping !" "Sleeping?" "Let's eat!" "Let's eat." "Lif e just doesn't get any better than this!" "Don't y ou want to eat?" "It's good, even if it is all instant." "I'm sorry, I'm just not used to it." "That's no ex cuse!" "You can't be so f inicky ." "No, that's not what I ... well..." "Isn't this nice?" "Having two f or dinner instead of eating alone!" "Yeah..." "Here we go f or the next one." "Paper, stone and scissors..." "Pon!" "Pon!" "Pon!" "Pon!" "Sorry, Shinji." "Okay !" "That was a pretty f air way of splitting our daily chores, right?" "Yeah." "This is y our home now, so make y ourself comf ortable," "This is y our home now, so make y ourself comf ortable, and take advantage of everything here, ex cept me." "Yes." "Man, y es, y es, y es. ls that all y ou say?" "It's getting on my nerves." "Man, y es, y es, y es. ls that all y ou say?" "It's getting on my nerves." "You're a boy, aren't y ou?" "Act like a man!" "Okay?" "Yes." "Okay, that's just the way y ou are." "Well, why don't y ou go take a bath and scrub away those bad memories." "Bathing cleanses both the mind and soul." "Miss Misato!" "What?" "A p... p ...p ..." "A p... p ...p ..." "What?" "Oh, him?" "He's one of those new warm water penguins." "What was that?" "H is name is Pen-pen." "He's y our other roommate." "H is name is Pen-pen." "He's y our other roommate." "Why don't y ou cover that up?" "I guess I'm not being as nice as I ought to." "Of course, he's probably already made up his mind about me." "Misato Katsuragi." "She's not a bad person." "Bathing cleanses both the mind and soul." "But bad memories alway s seem to f ind me when I'm in the bath." "Like my f ather and Rei A y anami." "So, how was Rei today?" "You did see her at the hospital this afternoon, didn't y ou?" "She'll be ready to work again in twenty day s." "By then, we'll be ready to re-activate Unit 00 f rom cry o-stasis." "It's so hard on these poor children." "There is no one else who can pilot the Evas." "As long as they survive, that is what I'll have them do." "With no regard to what they may want?" "Yeah, after all the horrible stuff he went through, I doubt that he'll pilot it again." "Maintaining him is part of y our job, Misato." "I'm just scared. I don't know how to deal with him." "Grumbling already?" "It was y our idea to take him in, y ou know." "Shut up!" "I was just thinking of Shinji as a tool." "I'm as shameless as Ritsuko." "We destroy ed the Angel." "So, why can't I be happy about it?" "Another unf amiliar ceiling." "Of course. I n this whole city, there's no place that's f amiliar." "This is y our home." "Why am I here?"

"Unit 01 's gone completely silent!" "Misato!" "We've got to stop this." "Abort the operation!" "Rescuing the pilot is our f irst priority !" "Eject the entry plug !" "We can't!" "It's completely out of control !" "No way !" "The Eva's re-activating !" "The Eva's re-activating !" "Impossible!" "How could this be happening?" "I mpossible!" "I mpossible!" "A berserker?" "!"

"The left arm has been regenerated !" "Incredible!" "Unit 01 's expanding an AT f ield of its own!" "It's neutralizing the phase space!" "No, not neutralizing, it's eroding it!" "Unbelievable!"

"Graphs back to normal." "Pilot lif e signs, conf irmed." "Send out the recovery team." "H urry !" "Preserving the pilot's lif e is our f irst priority ." "Shinji, can I come in?" "I f orgot to tell y ou something." "You did a very good thing today ." "You should be proud of y ourself." "Good night, Shinji." "Hang in there." "Training as Eva pilot, and a new lif e with Misato." "Shinji, who passes his lif e without liking himself, would surely never have a f riend." "But when it's revealed that he's a pilot, he becomes a hero." "Shinji becomes embarrassed, and one boy bullies him." "Next Evangelion:" ""The Phone That Never Rings"" "I'll give y ou something special again!" "Good morning, Shinji." "How's it going?" "No problems." "I'm getting used to it." "That's good." "Have y ou memorized the positions of all the Eva emergence points, emergency power junctions, armament equipment sites and recovery zones?" "I guess so..." "Well, let's review it now." "Well, let's review it now." "Normally the Eva runs off electricity provided by an umbilical cable." "I n emergencies, it can switch to a built-in battery, with an active lif e of one minute at f ull power, and no more than f ive minutes in the minimal activity gain mode." "This is due to our current limits in battery capacity technology ." "Do y ou understand?" "Do y ou understand?" "Yes" "Now let's continue f rom where we left off y esterday ." "I nitiate I nduction Mode." "Now let's continue f rom where we left off y esterday ." "I nitiate I nduction Mode." "Position the target in the center, then switch "on"." "Take it easy ." "Position the target in the center." "Then pull the switch." "Next!" "You know, I wonder why Shinji agreed to be a pilot after what happened?" "It would seem that he simply does what he's told to do." "I suppose that's just his way of getting through lif e." "Target in the center, pull the switch." "Target in the center, pull the switch." "Target in the center, pull the switch." "Target in the center, pull the switch." "Target in the center..." "And now, from Tokyo we go to Natsuko Shinohara in Matsuzaki." "Good morning, this is Shinohara." "Guess what?" "Today I'm in Matsuzaki in West Izu for a little scuba diving!" "Today's forecast is sunny, with an estimated high of 32 deg Celsius." "Miss Misato, it's morning already ." "Miss Misato, it's morning already ." "We have hot days all year now, but we used to have four seasons.." "I just got back f rom night duty ."

"We never see snow these days, Instead, due to the recent warmth, aquatic life has been coming back little by little" "Hey, isn't today Thursday?" "Hey, isn't today Thursday?" "Take the burnable trash to the garbage, please." "As you dive into the sea you can clearly see an abundance of fish." "Yes, Ma'am." "Yes, Ma'am." "It make me think of catching some for tonite's dinner" "So, how's school?" "It makes me think of catching some for tonite's dinner." "Fine." "Oh, okay ." "Take care." "Oh, okay ." "Take care." "Although the town brings back sad memories, this is a hot diving spot." "I'll see y ou later." "Although the town brings back sad memories, this is a hot diving spot." "Yes?" "Hello?" "Oh, it's y ou, Ritsuko." "How's it going?" "Are y ou getting along with him?" "H im?" "Oh, Shinji." "Well, he transf erred into school two weeks ago and he hasn't changed." "No one ever calls him." "Calls him?" "Well, since I f igured he'd be needing one, I gave him a cellular phone." "Well, since I f igured he'd be needing one, I gave him a cellular phone." "I don't think he's ever used it though, or received any calls." "I'm not sure, but I don't think he has any f riends." "Well, I would guess that Shinji's not the sort who makes f riends easily ." "Do y ou know the f able of the Hedgehog's Dilemma?" "Hedgehog?" "You mean those animals with the spiny hair?" "Even though a hedgehog may wish to become close with another hedgehog, the closer they get, the more they injure each other with their spines." "It's the same with some humans."

"No way, y ou saw where the explosion was on Mount Takanosu, didn't y ou?" "There were f ighters scrambled f rom l ruma and Komatsu, and there were also troops f rom Misawa and Ky ushu." "I'll bet at least ten or twenty people were injured, and there had to be some killed, too." "Toji !" "Toji !" "Suzuhara!" "Wow, has the class population dropped or what?" "They've all been evacuated or transf erred to other schools." "After all, no one wants to stay after that last battle inside the city ." "Yeah, y ou're probably the only one who's actually enjoy ing the chance to see a real war." "Yeah, I am." "And speaking of which, where have y ou been, Toji?" "Why were y ou absent so long?" "Did y ou get involved in the war?" "My little sister did." "She was crushed under a pile of debris." "She survived but she's been in the hospital ever since." "Both my dad and grand-dad are working at the lab, and there's no way they can leave their posts." "So, if I'm not with her, she's all alone." "That robot's pilot was really dumb!" "It makes me so angry !" "How could he wreck our own city?" "What was he doing?" "About the pilot, have y ou heard the rumor about the new transf er student?" "What transf er student?" "H im, over there." "He transf erred here while y ou were absent." "He came right after the incident." "Don't y ou think that's odd?" "All rise!" "And so, humankind was about to f ace its greatest trial." "I n the last y ear of the 20th century, a massive meteor f rom space slammed into the Antarctic continent." "The continent's ice cap was melted almost instantaneously ." "The water level of the oceans increased dramatically, the Earth was thrown off its axis, and new, devastatingly abnormal, weather patterns were spawned." "The lives of all living things on the planet were threatened." "Several thousand species and half of the world's human population were lost in the immediate aftermath." "That was the so-called "Second I mpact"." "The survivors still had to live through the hell of worldwide economic collapse, ethnic conf licts, and civil wars." "However, it has been f ifteen y ears since then." "I n only f ifteen y ears, we have restored ourselves." "This is certainly proof of the human race's resilience, but even more so, it is the f ruit of the blood, sweat and tears y our f athers and mothers have dedicated to this cause." "What?" "!"

"And what's its ultimate attack mode?" "Some kind of vibrating knif e." "Some kind of vibrating knif e." "An ultra-sonic wave." "That's amazing !" "We're so proud of y ou!" "Yeah, right!" "Cool !" "Yeah." "And thus..." "Oh..." "That's all for today." "I kari, where do y ou live?" "I kari, where do y ou live?" "Every body stand up!" "Bow!" "Hey, y ou guy s, why don't y ou at least show some manners at the end?" "Hey, y ou guy s, why don't y ou at least show some manners at the end?" "Sorry, newcomer, but I've got to beat y ou up!" "I've got to work off my anger." "Sorry, his sister was injured because of the incident." "That's his ex cuse, anyway ." "I didn't pilot it by choice." "We've got an emergency call." "I'll go."
