Quotes

• Yui and Rei Before Shinji turns into L.C.L: "This Rei is from your soul. She's the embodiment of your wish." "What do you wish for?"

• Misato: "I failed to be Shinji's mother after all."

• Asuka and Shinji during Pre-Instrumentality with Misato occasionally interjecting:

Asuka: "Do you want to kiss?"
Misato: "Absolutely not."
Asuka: "Or are you scared?"
Misato: "It's not for kids."
Asuka: "Then, here I go."
Asuka: "You don't understand anything! Don't get come near me!"
Shinji: "I do understand."
Asuka: "You don't, you idiot! Asuka kicks Shinji instead of kissing him. Do you think you understand me?! Do you think you can save me?! That's nothing but your conceited ego! You will never understand!"
Shinji: "How can I understand? Asuka doesn't tell me anything. You don't tell me anything. You don't say anything. It's impossible to understand!"

• Asuka admitting her feelings for Shinji in Pre-Instrumentality: "If all of you can't be mine, I don't want anything."

• Shinji admitting his feelings for Asuka in Pre-Instrumentality: "I want to help you. I want to be with you forever."

• Asuka rejects Shinji in Pre-Instrumentality: Shinji: (After Asuka pushes him onto the ground) "Help me. Someone, please...please, help me. Help me. Help me. Help me! Shinji pushes the table over. Don't leave me alone! Shinji picks up a chair and throws it. Don't abandon me! Asuka looks frightened. Don't kill me!" Asuka: (Coldly staring at Shinji) "No." Shinji strangles Asuka.

• Shinji: "Is it okay for me to be here?"

• Keel: "The beginning and ending share the same moment. Good. Everything's going well."

• Gendo: "So, this is my retribution? I'm sorry, Shinji."

• Shinji and Rei: "Where's my dream?" "The continuation of reality." "Then, where's my reality?" "At the end of your dream."

• Yui: "It will be alright. All lifeforms have the power to restore themselves...and the wish to live. If you decide to live, anywhere can be heaven...because you're alive. There will be chances to be happy everywhere. As long as the Sun, Moon and Earth exist...it will be alright."

• Shinji his final lines: "I still don't know where to find happiness. But I'll continue to think about whether it's good to be here...whether it was good to have been born. But in the end, it's just realizing the obvious over and over again. Because I am myself."

• Asuka The final line, spoken in "the coldest voice possible": "...I feel sick."
