As Misato struggles with unprocessed feelings towards her father and her ex,

Misato and the others plan his rescue from the outside. Will Shinji survive?

The second NERV branch in America and EVA-04 are destroyed during an S²
Engine experiment. The activation experiment for EVA-03 will be performed at
NERV headquarters in Japan. A newly specialized pilot has been chosen as
Fourth Children. And the pilot is revealed to be…

EVA-03 arrives in Japan from the US, and Misato and the others head to
Matsushiro to perform an activation experiment. After they begin the
experiment EVA-03 goes berserk, an Angel has parasitized it. Gendo identifies
EVA-03 as the Thirteenth Angel and directs Shinji and the others to destroy it.

Shinji decides to step down as an EVA pilot after becoming angry at his father.
Just as he is leaving Tokyo-3, the Fourteenth Angel attacks. It overwhelms
NERV headquarters with its incredible power and destroys EVA-02 and EVA-
00. Amongst the explosions and screams, Shinji meets a certain man.

Having reached a synchronization of 400% with EVA-01, Shinji does not emerge
after the fighting. His body has fused with the LCL. What is it that “he” wants as
he continues the conversation with himself? Ritsuko and the others plan a
salvage operation to save Shinji.

SEELE, disturbed by Gendo’s arbitrary lead, kidnaps Fuyutsuki and interrogates
him. Trapped in a state of confinement, Fuyutsuki remembers Yui and Gendo’s

and the birth of NERV

Asuka takes the shock of the unprecedented decrease in her synch rate harder

meaning for existing on the line, she attacks the encroaching Angel. However,
her pride is completely shattered when EVA-02 remains silent.

Rei moves to intercept a newly encroaching Angel, but her body and mind are
eroded. In order to save her, Gendo breaks the committee’s freeze order and
activates EVA-01. However, Shinji is soon also infiltrated by the Angel. At that
moment, Rei comes to her own decision.

affinity for Shinji. Shinji hesitates, but he senses that Kaworu is the only person
he can truly talk to. However, Kaworu was an agent sent by SEELE. Shinji has to
make a harsh choice.

Betrayed by those he believed in, Shinji looks into the depths of his own soul
and questions his reason for existing. Is there any salvation for a young man
who has rejected everything? Reality and the world are quickly shut away in the
darkness of his heart…

Is filling in the gaps in one’s own heart the truth of the Human Instrumentality
Project? Shinji floats in his own ego space and faces his fears. Wishing to find
comfort for himself, he discovers the existence of a world of possibilities. What
did Shinji see at the end of his soul journey?
