Description/Dialogue

Commentary

193

Inside the tumbled shelter.

Unit Two’s neck.

MOB (OFF, people to the right):“Get the injured people to the sixth block!”

Background dialogue from people running around trying to escape (until cut 201)

(left):“Those who aren’t, hurry to the”

UrsusArctos: Look closely, and you'll see the bloodied corpses crushed under Eva-02's fallen head. Not pleasant.

194

The defensive battle continues, even though known to be pointless.

Unit Two is inside, before Shinji, its system halted.

People are running in front.

(left):“Third shelter!”

MOB (A):“Over here!”

(B):“Quickly!”

(C):“Hey! You! What are you doing? Do you want to die!? (until next cut)”

SE <<(OFF explosion sounds, etc...)>>

WOMAN ANNOUNCER (right OFF tape):“Close the number 2 and number 2 blocks. Please evacuate promptly.”

WOMAN ANNOUNCER:“Dispose of the number 8 block. Cut off the entire route after 60 seconds. All hands, evacuate your corresponding section.”

MAN ANNOUNCER:“There’s a fire outbreak in the lower part of floor B! There’s smoke inside the operation! Open the designated section of road in the emergency closure.”

WOMAN ANNOUNCER:“No entry now for the number 7 route! Please use the 15th detour route on the right!”

UrsusArctos: All the background chatter and the shots coming in from unseen guns (on the warships, perhaps?) actually conveys just how much of a fight is still going on even without Eva-02, and how desperate those caught in Zeruel's rampage really are. It beats me why those gun batteries didn't swing into operation to help Asuka against Zeruel, or where they're even located in the Geofront.

195

Shinji looking at Unit Two.

SHINJI:“(alone) ...Asuka.”

KAJI (OFF):“Is that you, Shinji?”

He looks in the direction of a voice.

196

Beyond Shinji, inside, Kaji holds a sprinkler.

197

Kaji closeup.

SHINJI (OFF):“Mr. Kaji?!”

198

Shinji unsteadily looks in Kaji’s direction, and facing him, speaks.

SHINJI:“What are you doing!? At this place?”

Kaji is being calm.

KAJI:“That’s my line. What are you doing here? Shinji?”

Inside, the battle continues.

Shinji doesn’t have any faith or pride in himself.

There is resistance to his father in his heart.

Shinji is only looking down; Kaji rebukes this.

SHINJI:“(looking down) I, I’m not piloting the Eva anymore... Since I decided that...”

KAJI:“Is that so. (brightly) My side job became public. So I’m not stationed during battle any longer.”

199

From Kaji’s viewpoint.

Watermelons, the sprinkler’s inside.

KAJI (OFF):“Since then, I’ve been here watering.”

SHINJI (OFF left):“At a time like this?”

KAJI (OFF):“Because it’s a time like this.”

200

Kaji’s feelings on if his life were to end and if he died here.

KAJI (ON):“Though I’d rather be between Katsuragi’s breasts, I don’t mind being here when I die.”

201

Shinji front.

He has an expression of not understanding his words (muttering)

SHINJI:“...die?”

202

The angel flashes.

SE <<パウッ>>

203A

A direct hit to headquarters!

A large spherical explosion spreads.

SE <<(explosion)>>

UrsusArctos: This explosion seems to have been aimed at Gendo's office (which production materials place near the top of the Nerv pyramid) but said office, or a room nigh-identical to it, is still intact at the end of the episode.

203B

BGM START: E-13 [THANATOS]

Incoming beams from inside; Kaji and Shinji face each other.

KAJI (OFF):“Right. It’s said that if an angel contacts Adam, who is sleeping underground, all humans will perish. That’s the Third Impact. It can only be stopped by that which has the same power as the angel,”

204

Shinji gazes up, hearing something. He feels sinful.

KAJI (OFF):“the Evangelion.”

He faces Unit Zero, which appears in the forest. (no left arm, its carrying an N2 bomb in its right hand)

SE <<ガッコオオオオン>>

SE <<(sound of elevator rising)>>

Shinji turns his face.

SHINJI (behind):“Ayanami?”

205

Shinji from above.

SHINJI:“Without a rifle?!”

206

Rei has a cool facial expression.

Pulls back slightly.

207

Unit Zero charges.

SE <<(running sound) vigorous running>>

208

Closeup of its hand. Holding an N2 bomb.

SE <<Running>>

209

Ritsuko from below.

RITSUKO:“She’s going to blow herself up!?”

210

Closeup of Ikari’s side.

IKARI:“Rei!!!”

211

Closeup of side of Unit Zero.

SE <<vigorous running>>

212

Angel turns around.

SE <<ヴズズッ>>

213A

An AT Field develops in the forest, beyond the lake, the shockwave turns it pure white.

SE <<(metal-like sound) カーンッ>>

SE <<(water spreading out sound) ズザザ>>

213B

Closeup of the side of Rei, she jerks forward.

REI:“(shouts) AT Field, full power!”

214

Unit Two pushes the bomb directly inside the AT field, which stretches like vinyl.

SE <<ビキビキビキ>>

At last, its right hand extends into the AT field.

SE <<バシュン>>

215

At the moment the bomb collides with the Angel’s core, the angel covers it.

SE <<ギュワラッ>>

SE <<ガインッ>>

Dr. Nick: "Evangelion pilots hate him! Learn how to protect your core with this one weird trick!"

Incidentally, the point-blank bomb shove is a Unit-00 only novelty map attack in at least one SRW game.

216

Inside the plug, strong line shines on Rei.

REI:“!!”

217

A pillar of fire inside the Geofront.

It thrusts up to the ceiling.

A shockwave and sphere of light spreads out.

SE <<ズドドドドド>>

SEELE-01: (Cuts 217-218) Now, this bit of the scene is downright impossible. For all we've seen N2 mines do, being in an enclosed space and so close to the explosion center, Shinji, Kaji and the watermelons should be dead or at least crushed by the air pressure.

218

Shinji bears with the force from the explosion.

SE <<バウッ>>

File:19 C219a.jpg

219

Bridge. Everyone’s back.

The monitor is white.

220

All are watching.

HYUGA:“Unit Zero is…?”

221

The flames flicker inside the angel and Unit Zero.

Unit Zero has lost both of its arms.

The angel is unwounded.

SE <<ズゴゴゴゴ>>

The angel’s arm extends, stopping where it pierces Unit Zero.

SE <<ザシュッ!!>>

222

Misato closeup.

MISATO:“(hurried) Rei!!”

223

Unit Zero collapses; it’s head is split in two.

SE <<Big impact>>

Dr. Nick: Curiously, Zeruel doesn't go after the Evas' cores until getting into actual trouble with Shinji in Unit-01. Does it have a no-kill policy against its Adam-derived cousins?

224

Ritsuko and Misato are overcome with surprise.

RITSUKO:“What has she done?”

225

Closeup of Shinji looking at whats happened.

SE <<sound of flames burning (until cut 231)>>

226

The hands of Shinji, not able to do anything, in front of Kaji.

He talks, unconcerned, without looking at Shinji.

KAJI:“Shinji, I can’t do anything but water here. But there is something that you, and only you can do.”

227

Unit Two’s torso, now an objet d’art.

Translator’s Note: This was quite the odd one. As far as I can tell that’s what the オブジェ means @_@

228

Unit Zero, with its head in two pieces.

UrsusArctos: This is very reminiscent of how Rei-Lilith's head splits down the middle at the end of EoE, and calls forward to that moment.

229

Shinji from behind, looking down, beyond the sprinkler.

KAJI (OFF):“Nobody is forcing you. Think for yourself, and decide for yourself.”

UrsusArctos: The watering can's color and shape are deliberately evocative of Eva-01, a straight indication about what Kaji's urging Shinji to think about.

230

Kaji speaks, not looking at Shinji. (not in a forceful way)

KAJI (ON):“What you have to do for yourself now.”

231

Closeup of the side of Shinji.

KAJI (OFF):“You know, so you don't have any regrets.”

He elevates the determination in his eyes.

He slowly raises his face.

232

Flowing through the forest.

Cutting through the forest, headquarters can be seen.

SE <<(sound of light bullets)>>

SE <<(sound of cutting through plants, motion)>>

SE <<(sound of light explosions coming from the right)>>

UrsusArctos: Where are these tracers coming from, and why didn't the gun batteries firing them assist Eva-00? Fuyu's quip about them being a waste of taxpayer money is right in more ways than one.
