Shamshel is the Fourth Angel, the second to attack Tokyo-3, a mere 3 weeks after Sachiel's attack marked the return of the Angels. Shamshel is an insect-like Angel capable of transforming between a horizontally oriented "flight form" and a vertically oriented "combat mode". It's offensive weapons are two long energy-tentacles which it can use to slice through objects as thick as buildings, which can pierce an Evangelion's torso and are strong enough to lift an Evangelion off the ground and throw it a large distance.

Battle

Using Eva-01, Shinji tries to shoot Shamshel with his palette rifle, but fails to neutralize its AT Field and only ends up obscuring the target with smoke. Shamshel then attacks Eva-01 with its energy whips, and flings it onto a nearby mountainside. Eva-01 grabs Shamshel's energy tentacles in its bare hands and flings the Angel away. With Eva-01 running out of power, Shinji charged the Eva down the mountainside at the Angel and stabbed its core with his progressive knife, while Shamshel impaled Eva-01 on its energy tentacles. Eva-01 ran out of power at almost the same time that its knife finally penetrated Shamshel's core and the Angel died, leaving an almost fully intact specimen of an Angel.

Notes

  • The recovery of Shamshel's almost fully intact corpse would allow NERV to study its damaged Core and S2 Organ, leading to the project to try to develop S2 Organs for use in the Eva series.
  • When Shamshel switches from its flight-form to its battle-form, it's large front arms (which the energy-tentacles come out of) change form as well. They don't just separate and change position (when in flight-form they are touching each other), but actually change shape somewhat.
  • The official Japanese termed for Shamshel's energy-whips/energy-tentacles is just "hikari no muchi" which means "whips of light".
