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. Yes. That issue has already been
worked out with the Council.
Copy !req
16. The package left Sasebo yesterday
and is currently on the Pacific.
Copy !req
17. An Mi-55d transport chopper!
Copy !req
18. I never thought I'd get the chance
to actually ride in one!
Copy !req
19. Like they say, "Good friends are
a great blessing"! Right, Shinji?
Copy !req
20. You must be going stir crazy,
being stuck in the mountains every day.
Copy !req
21. So I thought I'd invite you
all out on a Sunday date.
Copy !req
22. You mean this is an honest
to goodness date, Ms. Misato?
Copy !req
23. I bought this hat on the off chance
that this day would come, Ms. Misato!
Copy !req
24. So, where are we going?
Copy !req
25. To enjoy a lovely cruise
on the Pacific aboard a luxury liner.
Copy !req
26. Five carriers!
Copy !req
27. Four battleships! It's a huge fleet!
Copy !req
28. Yep, good friends are a great blessing!
Copy !req
29. She calls that a luxury liner?
Copy !req
30. What it is is gorgeous!
Copy !req
31. That's the carrier that's the pride
of the UN fleet, the Over the Rainbow!
Copy !req
32. It's huge!
Copy !req
33. I'm amazed that
that old relic can stay afloat.
Copy !req
34. It's no relic!
It's a pre-Second Impact classic!
Copy !req
35. The nerve of these jackasses!
Copy !req
36. Their toy needed a special plug,
so they had one delivered!
Copy !req
37. It's some damn errand boys!
Copy !req
38. Oh, cool!
Copy !req
39. This is just too cool!
Copy !req
40. It's enough to bring tears
to a man's eyes!
Copy !req
41. Oh, cool!
Copy !req
42. Hey! Come back here!
Copy !req
43. Damn it! Stop! Hold it!
Copy !req
44. Hello, Misato. How have you been?
Copy !req
45. Not bad. Hey, have you grown in height?
Copy !req
46. Yep. And I'm filling out
in all the right places, too.
Copy !req
47. Allow me to introduce the Second Children,
Evangelion Unit 02's designated pilot.
Copy !req
48. Asuka Langley Soryu.
Copy !req
49. What the hell was that for?
Copy !req
50. Admission for the show.
I'd call that a bargain.
Copy !req
51. Say what?
Okay then, I'll return the favor!
Copy !req
52. What do you think you're doing?
Copy !req
53. So, which one is the Third Children
that I keep hearing about?
Copy !req
54. Don't tell me it's this sleazebag!
Copy !req
55. No. This is him.
Copy !req
56. Doesn't seem like much.
Copy !req
57. Ah, I assumed you were a tour guide
who was escorting some Boy Scouts.
Copy !req
58. But it seems I was wrong.
I apologize for the misunderstanding.
Copy !req
59. Thank you for being
so understanding, Captain.
Copy !req
60. Not at all.
Copy !req
61. I haven't had the pleasure of looking
after someone else's children in ages.
Copy !req
62. Thank you for your cooperation
in transporting Eva-02.
Copy !req
63. Here are the specifications
for the emergency electrical plug.
Copy !req
64. Humph. I never received
any official request to allow
Copy !req
65. that doll run around here at sea.
Copy !req
66. Perhaps you could think of it as
a precaution in case of emergency.
Copy !req
67. The Pacific Fleet is escorting it
in the event of that emergency.
Copy !req
68. When did the UN Forces
become a delivery service?
Copy !req
69. As I recall, it was just after
a certain agency was founded, sir.
Copy !req
70. This is quite an escort
to deliver a single toy.
Copy !req
71. The entire Pacific Fleet is here.
Copy !req
72. Given the importance of the Evangelions,
I'd say this isn't enough.
Copy !req
73. - Now, if you'll sign this form.
- Not yet.
Copy !req
74. Eva-02 and its pilot were entrusted
to this fleet by Germany's Third Branch.
Copy !req
75. I won't stand for you bossing me around!
Copy !req
76. When will you relinquish them, then?
Copy !req
77. After they have been unloaded
at New Yokosuka.
Copy !req
78. The high seas are our jurisdiction.
You will do as you're told here.
Copy !req
79. Very well.
Copy !req
80. But remember that in an emergency,
Nerv's authority supersedes yours.
Copy !req
81. - What a badass!
- She's acting like Ms. Ritsuko...
Copy !req
82. Dignified as ever, I see.
Copy !req
83. Kaji-senpai!
Copy !req
84. Hello.
Copy !req
85. Kaji! I don't recall inviting you
up to the bridge!
Copy !req
86. My apologies.
Copy !req
87. - If you'll excuse us.
- This is a date?
Copy !req
88. - Please see us to New Yokosuka.
- This is too cool!
Copy !req
89. Shit! A bunch of kids
are supposed to save the world?
Copy !req
90. Times have changed, sir.
Copy !req
91. I hear that Congress has high hopes
for those robots as well.
Copy !req
92. For those toys? Those damn fools!
Copy !req
93. If they have that kind of cash,
it would be better spent on us!
Copy !req
94. What the hell are you doing here?
Copy !req
95. I'm her plus-one. Germany sent me along.
Copy !req
96. How could I have missed this?
This situation was entirely plausible!
Copy !req
97. Hey! Watch the hands!
Copy !req
98. I can't help it!
Copy !req
99. Flight Three has launched on schedule...
Copy !req
100. So... You seeing anyone?
Copy !req
101. And just how is that any of your business?
Copy !req
102. Ouch! Why the cold shoulder?
Copy !req
103. So, I hear you're living with Katsuragi?
Copy !req
104. Um, that's right.
Copy !req
105. She used to flop around in her sleep.
She still do that?
Copy !req
106. Wha— Wha—
Copy !req
107. What are you talking about?
Copy !req
108. I take it she hasn't changed,
has she, Shinji Ikari?
Copy !req
109. Um, no. Hey, how did you know my name?
Copy !req
110. Why wouldn't I?
Copy !req
111. In our world, you're a celebrity.
Copy !req
112. The Third Children, the boy who piloted
an Eva without any prior training.
Copy !req
113. Come on, that was just luck.
Copy !req
114. Luck is part of destiny.
You have a gift, pure and simple.
Copy !req
115. - Well, I'll see you later.
- Yes, sir.
Copy !req
116. This is a sick joke... A nightmare.
Copy !req
117. So, what do you think of Shinji Ikari?
Copy !req
118. He's a letdown.
Copy !req
119. A guy like him, picked to be
the Third Children? I'm disillusioned.
Copy !req
120. He got tossed unprepared into a fight,
but his synch rate easily topped 40.
Copy !req
121. No way!
Copy !req
122. Man, that captain
was a real piece of work!
Copy !req
123. He's a proud man.
Copy !req
124. Anyone would make a snide
remark or two in his situation.
Copy !req
125. Mr. Kaji sure seems like
a fun and interesting person.
Copy !req
126. He hasn't changed one bit,
that damn moron!
Copy !req
127. Third Children!
Copy !req
128. Come with me for a minute.
Copy !req
129. Wow, Unit 02 is red. I had no idea.
Copy !req
130. It's not just the paint job
that makes it special.
Copy !req
131. Units 00 and 01 are really just
Copy !req
132. a developmental-use
prototype and test type.
Copy !req
133. The fact that you could synch with yours
without any training proves it.
Copy !req
134. But Unit 02 here is different!
Copy !req
135. Mine was built for combat operations,
the world's first real Evangelion!
Copy !req
136. It's the official type!
Copy !req
137. What was that?
Copy !req
138. An underwater shock wave!
Copy !req
139. That blast was nearby.
Copy !req
140. Is there...
Copy !req
141. - Oh, no! An Angel?
- That's an actual Angel?
Copy !req
142. What do we do? We have to go
back to where Ms. Misato is!
Copy !req
143. Here's my chance!
Copy !req
144. All ships, take evasive action!
Mind your distance!
Copy !req
145. Where's that sit-rep?
Copy !req
146. Cymbeline is dead in the water!
Titus Andronicus cannot locate target!
Copy !req
147. Damn it, what's going on out there?
Copy !req
148. Hello! Nerv here!
Copy !req
149. Would you like Intel on this unseen enemy
and how to effectively deal with it?
Copy !req
150. We're in combat!
Bystanders aren't allowed on the bridge!
Copy !req
151. This is just my personal opinion, but this
certainly looks like an Angel attack.
Copy !req
152. - All ships, engage target at will!
- You're wasting your time...
Copy !req
153. It's not enough to punch
through an A.T. Field, huh?
Copy !req
154. But why would an Angel come here?
Copy !req
155. Is it after Unit 02?
Copy !req
156. Hey! Where are we going?
Copy !req
157. Wait up here. I'll be right back.
Copy !req
158. Why is she so bossy?
Copy !req
159. Don't peek, you pervert!
Copy !req
160. Why are guys always so stupid and horny?
Copy !req
161. Okay, Asuka... it's game time.
Copy !req
162. Why can't we sink it?
Copy !req
163. I guess only an Eva can beat those things.
Copy !req
164. Okay, let's get out there.
Copy !req
165. You, too! You're coming with me!
Copy !req
166. Hey, why did we get changed
into plug suits?
Copy !req
167. Are you an idiot?
Copy !req
168. Why do you think? We're going to
take that thing out with my Unit 02!
Copy !req
169. Is that okay? Shouldn't we get
Ms. Misato's permission?
Copy !req
170. I'll get her permission after my victory.
Copy !req
171. Okay, I'm going to show you
how a real pilot does it.
Copy !req
172. But don't cause any trouble, got it?
Copy !req
173. That's strange... It's almost
like it's looking for something.
Copy !req
174. Getting attacked by an Angel out here
wasn't part of the deal.
Copy !req
175. That is why Unit 02 is there.
I even sent a backup pilot.
Copy !req
176. If it comes down to it,
escape on your own.
Copy !req
177. Understood.
Copy !req
178. There's a bug. What's wrong?
Copy !req
179. Cognitive noise!
I told you not to cause trouble, didn't I?
Copy !req
180. What did I do?
Copy !req
181. You're thinking in Japanese, aren't you?
Think in German, damn it!
Copy !req
182. Oh, okay...
Copy !req
183. Um, Baumkuchen—
Copy !req
184. Idiot! All right, fine!
Copy !req
185. Change cognitive linguistics!
Set basic to Japanese!
Copy !req
186. Evangelion Unit 02! Activate!
Copy !req
187. Message from the Othello:
Eva-02 is activating!
Copy !req
188. It's what?
Copy !req
189. Way to go, Asuka!
Copy !req
190. Don't! Abort activation! Power it down!
Copy !req
191. Forget him, Asuka! Launch!
Copy !req
192. How dare you!
Copy !req
193. We have jurisdiction over the Eva
and its pilot! You will do as you're told!
Copy !req
194. Are you kidding? This is an emergency!
Protocol can take a hike!
Copy !req
195. Hey!
Copy !req
196. Is she serious?
Unit 02 is still in its Type B loadout.
Copy !req
197. Won't we be in trouble
if we fall into the ocean?
Copy !req
198. So we don't fall in.
Copy !req
199. - You're in there too, Shinji?
- Yes, ma'am.
Copy !req
200. There are two kids in there?
Copy !req
201. May as well test it out...
Copy !req
202. Asuka! Launch now!
Copy !req
203. - Here it comes!
- We're on our way!
Copy !req
204. - Where is it?
- Over there!
Copy !req
205. - We only have 58 seconds!
- I know that!
Copy !req
206. Misato, have the emergency
power cable waiting on the deck!
Copy !req
207. - You got it!
- What's she trying to do?
Copy !req
208. - Right. Time to fly.
- Fly?
Copy !req
209. - Auxiliary power online!
- Direct feed to reactor established!
Copy !req
210. - Clear the flight deck!
- Ready for Eva landing!
Copy !req
211. - All hands, brace for impact!
- They're all lunatics!
Copy !req
212. Eva-02, coming in for landing!
Copy !req
213. What a waste...
Copy !req
214. Target closing in fast!
Copy !req
215. Here it comes! To port, nine o'clock!
Copy !req
216. Switching to external power!
Copy !req
217. Switchover complete!
Copy !req
218. - We don't have any weapons...
- A Prog Knife is all I need!
Copy !req
219. - That's thing's pretty big...
- Just like I hoped it would be!
Copy !req
220. What are they planning to do?
Copy !req
221. Close-quarters combat is
the best way to defeat an Angel.
Copy !req
222. Way to stop that thing, Asuka!
Copy !req
223. You've got to be kidding!
They're trashing my flight deck!
Copy !req
224. They fell in!
Copy !req
225. Asuka, you can't fight underwater
in that Type B configuration!
Copy !req
226. You never know until you try, right?
Copy !req
227. - What a horrible waste...
- Remaining cable length?
Copy !req
228. Down to 1,200!
Copy !req
229. - What are you going to do?
- They'll come up with something.
Copy !req
230. We have to come up with something!
Copy !req
231. You're almost out of cable!
Brace for impact!
Copy !req
232. Damn it!
Copy !req
233. Eva has lost the target!
Copy !req
234. How can I run out of disks
at a time like this?
Copy !req
235. A Yak-38i!
Copy !req
236. - Hey there, Katsuragi!
- Kaji!
Copy !req
237. I have a delivery to make,
so I'll see you there.
Copy !req
238. Take us up.
Copy !req
239. Take care of things here, Capt. Katsuragi!
Copy !req
240. H-He bailed on us!
Copy !req
241. Target re-approaching the Eva!
Copy !req
242. Here it comes again!
I'll nail it for sure this time!
Copy !req
243. What the hell? It's not moving!
Copy !req
244. We can't in Type B gear.
Copy !req
245. - What are we gonna do?
- You're asking me?
Copy !req
246. What a wimp! Aren't you supposed
to be the great Third Children?
Copy !req
247. Here it comes!
Copy !req
248. A mouth?
Copy !req
249. Yeah, it's an Angel...
Copy !req
250. Eva-02 has entered the target!
Copy !req
251. You mean they got eaten?
Copy !req
252. Man, it's like we're fishing!
Copy !req
253. Fishing? Yes! We'll go fishing!
Copy !req
254. - Out of the fire, back to the frying pan.
- Oh, who asked you?
Copy !req
255. And get off me, you pervert!
Copy !req
256. But we have to break free somehow!
Copy !req
257. Asuka? Do you read me?
Copy !req
258. Whatever you do, don't let go!
Copy !req
259. - Captain.
- What?
Copy !req
260. I need your assistance.
Copy !req
261. Having my two surviving battleships
fire at point-blank range?
Copy !req
262. Yes.
Copy !req
263. We scuttle the two evacuated battleships
Copy !req
264. along the umbilical cable to set the trap.
Copy !req
265. As they are sinking,
Eva-02 will pry open the target's mouth.
Copy !req
266. Both ships will enter it.
Copy !req
267. Then, after firing at point-blank range,
they will self-destruct,
Copy !req
268. thereby destroying the target.
Copy !req
269. That's insane!
Copy !req
270. This plan may be insane,
but I don't think it's impossible.
Copy !req
271. Very well.
Copy !req
272. All hands, abandon ship!
I say again, all hands, abandon ship!
Copy !req
273. All frigates, move in to rescue the crew!
Copy !req
274. But what about the Eva?
Copy !req
275. Don't worry. Those two will be fine.
Copy !req
276. Hey! Stop manhandling my Unit 02!
Copy !req
277. Okay, you two! Are you clear on the plan?
Copy !req
278. - We'll make it work somehow.
- We're counting on you!
Copy !req
279. Ships' Kingston valves have been pulled.
Now sinking towards Z-point.
Copy !req
280. Roger. Reel in the cable!
Copy !req
281. Eva starting to ascend! Contact in 70!
Copy !req
282. Damn it, stop messing with
the controls! Move aside!
Copy !req
283. But if we don't pry its mouth open,
we're gonna get blown up with it!
Copy !req
284. Contact in 60!
Copy !req
285. - The Angel's mouth?
- Still closed!
Copy !req
286. Both battleships are sinking
towards the target.
Copy !req
287. Eva still ascending! Contact in 50!
Copy !req
288. - It's not working!
- We're almost out of time!
Copy !req
289. Target has passed beneath the Tempest!
Copy !req
290. There's not much time! Hurry!
Copy !req
291. - Don't get any funny ideas in your head.
- As if!
Copy !req
292. - Anyway, just concentrate!
- I know!
Copy !req
293. Contact in 20!
Copy !req
294. Contact in 15!
Copy !req
295. Open!
Copy !req
296. Open!
Copy !req
297. Open fire!
Copy !req
298. NEW YOKOSUKA (FORMERLY ODAWARA)
Copy !req
299. You made another mess, I see.
Copy !req
300. I really should have factored in
underwater combat.
Copy !req
301. That's unusual. Is that regret?
Copy !req
302. It's all good. At least we got
some valuable data out of it.
Copy !req
303. That's true.
Copy !req
304. Misato?
Copy !req
305. This really is valuable.
Copy !req
306. - M-Matching outfits!
- Rubs me the wrong way!
Copy !req
307. This is a new synchronization record!
Copy !req
308. It was just for seven seconds, so it was
probably just a rush of adrenaline.
Copy !req
309. Hey! Where's Mr. Kaji?
Copy !req
310. He ran off without us!
He's at HQ already, that jerk!
Copy !req
311. I must say, that was
quite the eventful voyage.
Copy !req
312. It was because of this, wasn't it?
Copy !req
313. Look at how far it's reconstituted itself.
Copy !req
314. It's encased in solidified Bakelite,
but it's alive. Without a doubt.
Copy !req
315. It's the key to the Human
Instrumentality Project.
Copy !req
316. Yes. This is the first human being.
Copy !req
317. This is Adam.
Copy !req
318. She might have been cute,
but, man, what a shrew!
Copy !req
319. Well, we'll never see her again.
Copy !req
320. But you're stuck with her
because of your job, big guy.
Copy !req
321. You have our sympathies, seriously.
Copy !req
322. I'm Asuka Langley Soryu. Nice to meet you.
Copy !req
323. TO BE CONTINUED
Copy !req
