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. I wonder if he's going to
skip school again today.
Copy !req
16. SHINJI'S ROOM
Copy !req
17. Shinji, get up. How long are you
gonna stay home from school?
Copy !req
18. It's been five days already.
Unit 01 is as good as new.
Copy !req
19. Its pilot shouldn't be
sitting around like this.
Copy !req
20. Shinji?
Copy !req
21. TO MS. MISATO KATSURAGI
Copy !req
22. He ran away. I guess I can't blame him.
Copy !req
23. Shinji?
Copy !req
24. Er, um...
Copy !req
25. We're in the same class as Mr. Ikari.
Our names are Aida and Suzuhara.
Copy !req
26. Aida and Suzuhara.
Copy !req
27. - Yes.
- Yes, ma'am! I'm Suzuhara.
Copy !req
28. Hang on, aren't you the two
who got into Unit 01's entry plug?
Copy !req
29. Yes, ma'am! We're really sorry
for any trouble we caused.
Copy !req
30. The thing is, we were worried because
Shinji hasn't been to school since then,
Copy !req
31. so we thought we'd check in on him.
Copy !req
32. Ah, Shinji's at Nerv's
training facility right now.
Copy !req
33. Oh, he is?
Copy !req
34. Um, these study guides
have been piling up on his desk.
Copy !req
35. You didn't have to
come all this way. Thanks.
Copy !req
36. Well, we should be on our way.
Copy !req
37. Say hi to Mr. Ikari for us.
Copy !req
38. Sure, I'll do that. Bye.
Copy !req
39. Well, this is an unexpected development.
Copy !req
40. What a babe.
Copy !req
41. Shinji, you little idiot!
Copy !req
42. Idiot...
Copy !req
43. TOKYO-3 LOOP LINE NO. 7
Copy !req
44. Next stop is Nagao-touge, Nagao-touge.
Copy !req
45. Please exit on the right side
of the train.
Copy !req
46. Thank you for using
Tokyo-3 Loop Line No. 7.
Copy !req
47. This train is no longer in service
after this stop.
Copy !req
48. Please remember to collect
your belongings before exiting.
Copy !req
49. I got to go home.
Copy !req
50. Hey, buddy! Step right in!
It's a real bargain!
Copy !req
51. - You really couldn't detect it?
- No!
Copy !req
52. An object tens of millimeters across
struck the South Pole at speeds
Copy !req
53. in excess of 10% of the speed of light!
Copy !req
54. It was beyond modern science's ability
to predict, much less prevent!
Copy !req
55. But look at what's happening outside!
What good is science?
Copy !req
56. Atmospheric flux caused by axial shift
has decreased to 3%.
Copy !req
57. Has it gotten better outside, then?
Copy !req
58. No! There's a tsunami on the way!
Incoming at 230 meters per second!
Copy !req
59. Doctor! We must escape!
Copy !req
60. No, my duty is to stay here!
Copy !req
61. Doctor, dying is easy!
Copy !req
62. But you also have a duty
to bear witness to...
Copy !req
63. Idiot...
Copy !req
64. He is only 14 years old.
Copy !req
65. Placing the fate of the human race
on his shoulders is a lot to ask.
Copy !req
66. But we have no choice
Copy !req
67. but to have 14-year-olds pilot the Evas.
Copy !req
68. I know that.
Copy !req
69. So, any word from Shinji?
Copy !req
70. Nothing?
Copy !req
71. None. Maybe he's not coming back.
Copy !req
72. - What do you intend to do about it?
- Nothing.
Copy !req
73. He might be better off
if he didn't come back.
Copy !req
74. Why?
Copy !req
75. Well, after the last battle...
Copy !req
76. Why did you ignore my order?
Copy !req
77. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
78. - Aren't I your operations director?
- Yes, ma'am.
Copy !req
79. It's your duty to obey my orders.
Do you understand that?
Copy !req
80. Yes, ma'am.
Copy !req
81. - Don't let this happen again.
- Yes, ma'am.
Copy !req
82. Is this really getting through to you?
Copy !req
83. Yes, ma'am.
Copy !req
84. Listen, just repeating
"Yes, ma'am" isn't enough!
Copy !req
85. I understand just fine.
Copy !req
86. But why does it matter? We won.
Copy !req
87. It might feel easier to just superficially
play along with what others say,
Copy !req
88. but piloting an Eva with that attitude
will get you killed!
Copy !req
89. That's okay. I don't care.
Copy !req
90. I wish I could say that I'm glad
to hear you've got guts,
Copy !req
91. but you're way off base if you think
that will score you points, Shinji Ikari.
Copy !req
92. I'm not fishing for compliments.
I'm just the only one who can pilot it.
Copy !req
93. So I'll pilot it.
Copy !req
94. Ah, I see.
Copy !req
95. If piloting the Eva only brings him pain,
he's better off not piloting it.
Copy !req
96. He'll definitely die.
Copy !req
97. But we need a pilot.
Copy !req
98. Lieutenant, sir!
Copy !req
99. Aida, go on without me!
Copy !req
100. But I can't leave you, sir!
Copy !req
101. Don't be a fool!
Copy !req
102. Oof...
Copy !req
103. The new kid?
Copy !req
104. Ikari!
Copy !req
105. SUMMER TRAINING OVERVIEW
Copy !req
106. Tohji was sorry he hit you.
Copy !req
107. I hear his little sister chewed him out.
Copy !req
108. She said it was your robot
that saved us all.
Copy !req
109. It's hilarious that he got taken
down a peg by a grade-schooler.
Copy !req
110. Right?
Copy !req
111. I like it at night.
Those cicadas aren't buzzing away.
Copy !req
112. It was nice and quiet when I was little,
but there's more every year.
Copy !req
113. Ms. Misato said something about
the ecosystem rebuilding itself.
Copy !req
114. "Ms. Misato," huh?
Copy !req
115. I'm so jealous!
Copy !req
116. You live with a total babe
and you get to pilot that Evangelion.
Copy !req
117. I wish I could pilot the Evangelion
all by myself just once!
Copy !req
118. I wouldn't if I were you.
Your mother would be worried sick.
Copy !req
119. Well, that's not a problem.
I don't have one.
Copy !req
120. Same as you.
Copy !req
121. - You're hungry, right?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
122. Do you do this a lot?
Copy !req
123. I guess.
Copy !req
124. Is it training for guerrilla warfare?
Copy !req
125. What good would toys like this do?
I'm just having fun.
Copy !req
126. Shinji Ikari?
Copy !req
127. Yes.
Copy !req
128. We're with Nerv Security & Intelligence.
Copy !req
129. We're taking you to HQ under section eight
Copy !req
130. of the Safety Preservation Ordinance.
Copy !req
131. - Will you comply?
- Yes.
Copy !req
132. So you just stood there
and let them grab him?
Copy !req
133. Give me a break. Those guys were
Nerv Security & Intelligence.
Copy !req
134. Pros.
Copy !req
135. What's that got to do with it?
Don't you have any balls?
Copy !req
136. - Gross!
- Weirdo!
Copy !req
137. Ape!
Copy !req
138. Only an idiot picks a fight he can't win.
Balls don't enter into it.
Copy !req
139. - It's been a while.
- Yes, ma'am.
Copy !req
140. Has wandering around for the last two days
made you feel any better?
Copy !req
141. Not really.
Copy !req
142. Your Eva is ready and waiting.
Will you pilot it?
Copy !req
143. Or not?
Copy !req
144. You're not going to scold me
for running away?
Copy !req
145. I guess you wouldn't. You're not family.
Copy !req
146. What would happen with Unit 01
if I didn't pilot it?
Copy !req
147. I suppose Rei would pilot it.
Copy !req
148. You're not going to?
Copy !req
149. How could I do something like that?
I couldn't force it all on her.
Copy !req
150. Don't worry. I'll do it.
Copy !req
151. But you don't want to?
Copy !req
152. Of course not.
I'm not cut out for this stuff.
Copy !req
153. But you and Ayanami and Ms. Ritsuko—
Copy !req
154. Knock it off!
What others think doesn't matter!
Copy !req
155. If you don't really want to, then leave!
Copy !req
156. Forget about the Evas and everything else!
Go back to your old life!
Copy !req
157. If you keep acting like this,
you're more trouble than you're worth!
Copy !req
158. The Third Children
will leave Tokyo-3 tomorrow.
Copy !req
159. Then rewrite Unit 01's data to match Rei.
Copy !req
160. But, sir...
Copy !req
161. Regardless of Unit 00's
reactivation trial results,
Copy !req
162. we will press on with trials with Unit 01.
Copy !req
163. Reports from the Marduk Institute
Copy !req
164. indicate the Fourth Children
has not been found.
Copy !req
165. Meaning that we have
no replacement pilots?
Copy !req
166. Um, where is Ms. Misato?
I'd like to say goodbye.
Copy !req
167. You're no longer with Nerv.
You're not cleared for that information.
Copy !req
168. - Hey, Ikari!
- You forgot this!
Copy !req
169. Um... Can I have a minute?
Copy !req
170. Um... Thanks.
Copy !req
171. Tohji, out with it! Go on!
Copy !req
172. Ikari, I shouldn't have hit you twice.
Copy !req
173. Hit me back.
Copy !req
174. I can't do that!
Copy !req
175. Please. I wouldn't be able
to live with myself.
Copy !req
176. You know how melodramatic he is.
Copy !req
177. Look, if it helps bury the hatchet,
just hit him.
Copy !req
178. But...
Copy !req
179. Come on! You don't have much time, right?
Copy !req
180. Okay. Just one.
Copy !req
181. Okay! Let me have it!
Copy !req
182. Wait!
Copy !req
183. No holding back.
Copy !req
184. Ouch!
Copy !req
185. - How did you know I'd be here?
- Call it a hunch.
Copy !req
186. We've said goodbye to dozens
of classmates here lately.
Copy !req
187. If you don't stick around, we'll all
probably have to leave town eventually.
Copy !req
188. But we can't force you to stay.
Copy !req
189. We saw what it's like for you in that Eva.
Copy !req
190. I dare anybody to bad-mouth you!
Copy !req
191. I'll beat the crap out of the guy!
Copy !req
192. Don't give me that hangdog look, man!
Copy !req
193. - Take care.
- Hang in there.
Copy !req
194. Um...
Copy !req
195. It's time.
Copy !req
196. Stop that!
Copy !req
197. I'm the one who should be clobbered!
Copy !req
198. I'm dishonest! And a coward!
Copy !req
199. I'm a sneak... and a weakling.
Copy !req
200. Don't give us any more trouble.
Copy !req
201. He's gone, I guess.
Copy !req
202. Is this for the best?
Copy !req
203. The Hedgehog's Dilemma, huh?
Copy !req
204. The closer they get,
the more they hurt each other.
Copy !req
205. I get it now.
Copy !req
206. He talks like that because he doesn't
know how else to express his feelings.
