1. Like a cruel angel
Copy !req
2. Become a legend, young boy
Copy !req
3. When a blue wind
Knocks on the door to your heart
Copy !req
4. You just gaze back at me
And smile oh so gently
Copy !req
5. So eager for something
You touch so softly
Copy !req
6. Those innocent eyes
Know nothing of the fate that awaits
Copy !req
7. But one day, you will realize
That upon your back
Copy !req
8. You have wings
You can fly to the faraway future
Copy !req
9. The cruel angel's thesis
Copy !req
10. One day, you'll take off through a window
Copy !req
11. If your overflowing pathos
Copy !req
12. Leads you to betray your memories
Copy !req
13. Then embrace the heavens and shine bright
Copy !req
14. Become legend, young boy
Copy !req
15. Ready, Shinji?
Copy !req
16. Yes, ma'am.
Copy !req
17. Release final safeties!
Copy !req
18. Evangelion Unit 01, lift off!
Copy !req
19. Shinji?
Copy !req
20. I want you to just concentrate on walking.
Copy !req
21. Take a step...
Copy !req
22. It's walking!
Copy !req
23. Take a step...
Copy !req
24. Shinji, pull it together!
Copy !req
25. Hurry! Hurry, you need to get up!
Copy !req
26. Shinji, stay calm!
It only feels like your arm is being hurt!
Copy !req
27. - Where are its defensive systems?
- Signal inactive.
Copy !req
28. Field not raised!
Copy !req
29. It's not working?
Copy !req
30. - Left forearm damaged!
- Circuits severed!
Copy !req
31. Shinji, break loose!
Copy !req
32. Fracture in frontal cranium!
Copy !req
33. The armor can't take much more!
Copy !req
34. Skull damage! Severity unknown!
Copy !req
35. Control neurons
are disconnecting in a cascade!
Copy !req
36. Pilot readings lost!
Copy !req
37. Shinji!
Copy !req
38. I don't know this ceiling.
Copy !req
39. The Angels have returned.
It's all too sudden.
Copy !req
40. It's just like 15 years ago.
Copy !req
41. Calamity never warns before striking.
Copy !req
42. This might also be considered a blessing.
Copy !req
43. It means that all our previous
investments were worthwhile.
Copy !req
44. That remains to be seen.
Copy !req
45. If it is not useful,
it is the same as wasted money.
Copy !req
46. Indeed.
Copy !req
47. Information regarding the Angels
is spreading among the public.
Copy !req
48. We need a disinformation campaign.
Copy !req
49. Nerv's work must be carried out
both properly and quickly.
Copy !req
50. Those concerns are already
being addressed. Rest assured.
Copy !req
51. This morning at the Prime Minister's
Office in Tokyo-2,
Copy !req
52. the government held a press—
Copy !req
53. - The government claims—
- UN Forces Japan were deployed—
Copy !req
54. They went with Scenario B-22, huh?
Copy !req
55. Once again, the facts get buried.
Copy !req
56. The Public Affairs Office was ecstatic.
They say they finally feel useful.
Copy !req
57. What a bunch of optimists.
Copy !req
58. I wonder.
I think they're actually terrified.
Copy !req
59. They have good reason to be.
Copy !req
60. Well, that's certainly true.
Copy !req
61. Still, Ikari... can't you manage Nerv
and the Evas better?
Copy !req
62. First there was Unit 00, and now
Unit 01 needs repairs after its debut.
Copy !req
63. These bills could bankrupt a country.
Copy !req
64. I hear you gave that toy to your own son.
Copy !req
65. People. Time. And money.
Copy !req
66. You and your son seem to have
an insatiable appetite for resources.
Copy !req
67. And this is not your only job.
Copy !req
68. The Human Instrumentality Project.
That is your top priority.
Copy !req
69. Indeed.
Copy !req
70. That project is the only glimmer of light
in this desperate situation.
Copy !req
71. Humanity's only hope.
Copy !req
72. In any event, there can be no
pushing back the project's timetable
Copy !req
73. due to the Angels' arrival.
Copy !req
74. Your budget request will be considered.
Copy !req
75. The Council will take it from here.
Copy !req
76. Good work, Ikari.
Copy !req
77. Ikari, there's no turning back now.
Copy !req
78. I'm well aware.
Copy !req
79. Humanity's time is running out.
Copy !req
80. Yeah, AC is humanity's greatest invention!
Copy !req
81. What a triumph of science.
Copy !req
82. Shinji's regained consciousness.
Copy !req
83. So, what's his condition?
Copy !req
84. No external injuries, but they say
his memory's a little jumbled.
Copy !req
85. Was there psychological contamination?
Copy !req
86. They say there's no risk of that.
Copy !req
87. Oh.
Copy !req
88. Yeah, I'm not surprised.
We threw him into the deep end.
Copy !req
89. It's no wonder.
His cranial nerves took a lot of strain.
Copy !req
90. "His heart," don't you mean?
Copy !req
91. NOTICE OF CONSTRUCTION
GUIDED MUNITIONS SYS. BUILDING NO. 25
Copy !req
92. - Okay! Okay!
- Keep it coming!
Copy !req
93. Good, right there!
Copy !req
94. Once the Evas and this city are
fully operational, we might have a shot.
Copy !req
95. You think we can win?
Copy !req
96. Ever the optimist, I see.
Copy !req
97. Hey, a bright outlook is essential
for people to live their lives.
Copy !req
98. I suppose.
Your outlook is helpful sometimes.
Copy !req
99. Later.
Copy !req
100. Paging Dr. Ugai of
Internal Medicine Department 1.
Copy !req
101. Please contact Dr. Azuma
of Surgery Department 1.
Copy !req
102. Medical conference regarding Incident B
will take place as scheduled.
Copy !req
103. All attendees, please gather
in Conference Room 2.
Copy !req
104. Are you sure they should live separately?
Copy !req
105. For the Ikaris, life without
the other around is the norm.
Copy !req
106. In other words, living together
would be strange for them?
Copy !req
107. He's living alone?
Copy !req
108. Correct. His quarters will be
a room in Block Six nearby.
Copy !req
109. - Is that acceptable?
- Yes, sir.
Copy !req
110. Are you sure, Shinji?
Copy !req
111. It's fine, I prefer being alone.
Copy !req
112. It's all the same to me.
Copy !req
113. What did you say?
Copy !req
114. I said, I'm going to have
Shinji live with me!
Copy !req
115. I got permission from the top brass.
Copy !req
116. Don't worry,
I won't mess around with some kid.
Copy !req
117. Of course you won't!
Don't even suggest that!
Copy !req
118. - She needs to learn to take a joke.
- You're always doing this!
Copy !req
119. Right, then! We have to
celebrate in style tonight!
Copy !req
120. Celebrate what?
Copy !req
121. The arrival of a new roommate, of course!
Copy !req
122. You're moving, then?
Copy !req
123. Yes. We never thought this city
would actually become a battlefield.
Copy !req
124. Who would?
Copy !req
125. My husband wants me
and our children to evacuate, too.
Copy !req
126. Evacuate, huh...
Copy !req
127. They call this a fortress city,
but we can't count on it to protect us.
Copy !req
128. I get chills just thinking about
what happened yesterday!
Copy !req
129. You're so right.
Copy !req
130. If you don't mind,
we're gonna make a quick detour.
Copy !req
131. Where?
Copy !req
132. Someplace special.
Copy !req
133. It's...
Copy !req
134. kind of a desolate city, isn't it?
Copy !req
135. It's time.
Copy !req
136. Wow!
Copy !req
137. Buildings are sprouting from the ground!
Copy !req
138. This is the fortress city built to counter
and defeat the Angels.
Copy !req
139. This is Tokyo-3. This is our city.
Copy !req
140. And... it's the city that you protected.
Copy !req
141. I think your boxes of stuff
are already here.
Copy !req
142. Actually, I only moved here
recently, myself.
Copy !req
143. Come on in!
Copy !req
144. Uh, thanks for having me...
Copy !req
145. Shinji, this is your home.
Copy !req
146. I-I'm home.
Copy !req
147. Welcome back.
Copy !req
148. I know it's a little cluttered,
but don't let it bother you.
Copy !req
149. She calls this...
Copy !req
150. a little?
Copy !req
151. Sorry, could you put the groceries
in the fridge?
Copy !req
152. Oh, sure.
Copy !req
153. Ice...
Copy !req
154. snacks...
Copy !req
155. and beer is all she's got?
Copy !req
156. What does she do at home?
Copy !req
157. Um, what's this other refrigerator for?
Copy !req
158. Oh, leave that one alone. I hate to bother
someone when they're sleeping.
Copy !req
159. Sleeping?
Copy !req
160. Let's eat!
Copy !req
161. Let's eat...
Copy !req
162. This is what makes life worth living!
Copy !req
163. Aren't you hungry?
It's TV dinner food, but it's pretty good.
Copy !req
164. Well... I'm just not used to
eating like this.
Copy !req
165. Hey! We don't put up with
fussy eaters here!
Copy !req
166. No, I... That's not what I meant!
Copy !req
167. I...
Copy !req
168. Isn't this fun?
Copy !req
169. Sharing a meal with someone like this.
Copy !req
170. Yes, ma'am.
Copy !req
171. Okay,
Copy !req
172. let's do the next one!
Copy !req
173. One, two, shoot!
Copy !req
174. Shoot! Shoot! Shoot!
Copy !req
175. Shoot!
Copy !req
176. Sorry, Shinji!
Copy !req
177. Okay, we've now divided up
all our daily chores fair and square!
Copy !req
178. Yes, ma'am.
Copy !req
179. Right, this place is your home
starting today.
Copy !req
180. So no standing on ceremony for anything!
Copy !req
181. Uh, yes, ma'am.
Copy !req
182. "Yes, ma'am" this and "Yes, ma'am" that!
Stop being so uptight!
Copy !req
183. You're a boy, aren't you?
Let's hear some backbone and confidence!
Copy !req
184. Yes, ma'am.
Copy !req
185. Fine, whatever.
Copy !req
186. Hop into the tub
and wash all your cares away!
Copy !req
187. The bath is life's washing machine!
Copy !req
188. Ms. Misato!
Copy !req
189. What?
Copy !req
190. Huh?
Copy !req
191. Oh, him?
Copy !req
192. He's a new hot-spring penguin.
Copy !req
193. A what?
Copy !req
194. His name is Pen-Pen.
Copy !req
195. Our other roomie.
Copy !req
196. And... maybe you could cover up?
Copy !req
197. Maybe I laid on
the cheerfulness too thick.
Copy !req
198. He might see right through it.
Copy !req
199. Ms. Misato Katsuragi...
Copy !req
200. I guess she's not a bad person.
Copy !req
201. The bath is life's washing machine!
Copy !req
202. But... I tend to remember
all the bad things when I'm in the bath.
Copy !req
203. Father...
Copy !req
204. and Rei Ayanami.
Copy !req
205. How was Rei, sir?
Copy !req
206. I understand you visited her
at the hospital this afternoon.
Copy !req
207. She'll be back on her feet
in 20 days or so.
Copy !req
208. We need to get Unit 00 up and running
and ready for reactivation by then.
Copy !req
209. This will be rough... on those children.
Copy !req
210. No one else can pilot the Evas.
Copy !req
211. As long as they're alive,
that's what they'll do.
Copy !req
212. Regardless of how they feel about it?
Copy !req
213. SHINJI'S ROOM
Copy !req
214. SHINJI IKARI
Copy !req
215. True, he was put through the wringer.
I don't know if he'll do it again.
Copy !req
216. Making sure he's operational
is part of your job.
Copy !req
217. I'm afraid.
Not sure how I should approach him.
Copy !req
218. Whining already?
You were so dramatic about taking him in.
Copy !req
219. Shove it!
Copy !req
220. When I said that,
I just saw Shinji as a means to an end.
Copy !req
221. I'm no different from Ritsuko.
Copy !req
222. He beat that Angel.
Copy !req
223. So why aren't I happy about it?
Copy !req
224. Another ceiling I've never seen before.
Copy !req
225. No surprise...
Nothing about this city is familiar.
Copy !req
226. This is your home!
Copy !req
227. Why am I even here?
Copy !req
228. Skull damage, severity unknown!
Copy !req
229. Operational integrity compromised!
Copy !req
230. Report!
Copy !req
231. Synchrograph inverting!
Neural pulse flow is reversing!
Copy !req
232. Shut down circuits! Block the flow, now!
Copy !req
233. I can't! Shutdown signal rejected!
It's not getting through!
Copy !req
234. Shinji's status?
Copy !req
235. Zero biometrics! Condition unknown!
Copy !req
236. Unit 01 completely shut down!
Copy !req
237. Misato!
Copy !req
238. I guess that's it.
Copy !req
239. Abort operation!
Pilot rescue has top priority!
Copy !req
240. Emergency plug eject, now!
Copy !req
241. I can't! System is
completely unresponsive!
Copy !req
242. It's what?
Copy !req
243. The Eva has reactivated!
Copy !req
244. Impossible! It should be
completely non-operational!
Copy !req
245. - Has it gone...
- ... berserk?
Copy !req
246. We've won.
Copy !req
247. An A.T. Field!
Copy !req
248. It's no use!
As long as that field is up...
Copy !req
249. it can't touch the Angel!
Copy !req
250. - Left arm restored!
- Incredible!
Copy !req
251. Unit 01 has also raised an A.T. Field!
Copy !req
252. The Angel's phase space
is being neutralized!
Copy !req
253. No, it's corroding it.
Copy !req
254. It tore through that A.T. Field
like it was nothing...
Copy !req
255. It's self-destructing?
Copy !req
256. What happened to the Eva?
Copy !req
257. That's the Evas'...
Copy !req
258. true nature.
Copy !req
259. Circuits connected.
Copy !req
260. System back online.
Graph readings at normal levels.
Copy !req
261. Pilot's vitals confirmed.
Copy !req
262. Expedite unit recovery.
Copy !req
263. Pilot rescue has top priority!
Copy !req
264. Shinji? I'm coming in for a second.
Copy !req
265. I forgot to tell you something.
Copy !req
266. People will thank you
for what you did today.
Copy !req
267. You should be proud.
Copy !req
268. Good night, Shinji.
Copy !req
269. Keep it up.
Copy !req
270. TO BE CONTINUED
Copy !req
271. NEXT EPISODE
Copy !req
272. With Shinji drifting through his new life,
Copy !req
273. there was little hope
of him ever making friends.
Copy !req
274. But the fact that he's the Eva's pilot
makes him a celebrity.
Copy !req
275. Next episode! "The Silent Phone"!
Copy !req
276. More fan service coming up next time, too!
