	177	ASUKA:“Don't... Don't come inside me!”
	178A	ASUKA:“It hurts!”

	184A	ASUKA:“No!”

	185	ASUKA:“Don't look inside my mind!”
	186	ASUKA:“Please! Don't dig deeper into my heart!”
	187	MISATO:“Asuka!”	UrsusArctos: Straight from Episode 16 Cut 115. Yet again, the QUALITY ruins what should be a very powerful moment.
	188	IBUKI (OFF):“Her psychograph readings are at their limit!”
	189	RITSUKO:“Her mental circuits are being torn to shreds. It'll be too dangerous if they're overloaded any more.”
	190	MISATO:“Asuka, come back!”
	191	ASUKA:“No!” MISATO (RADIO - OFF):“That's an order! Asuka, retreat!” ASUKA:“No! Never!”
	192	ASUKA:“I'd rather die here than go back now!”	Mr. Tines: Suicide by Angel
	193	MISATO:“Asuka!”
	194	MAN (OFF):“Accelerator being aligned.” WOMAN (OFF):“voltage increasing, approaching pressurization.”	Dr. Nick: Yeah, Nerv just straight up kept SSDF's prized positron rifle from episode 8. But since it's only drawing power from whatever energy sources Tokyo-3 has, the beam doesn't punch through. UrsusArctos: This rifle seems to be a different version of the same weapon, with a drum-shaped object sitting where the SSDF's positron rifle sucked in beams of energy from an unknown source, Death Star-style.
	195	MAN (OFF):“Forced convergence, activated.” WOMAN (OFF):“Adjusting zero point zero three for Earth's rotation and gravity.” MAN (OFF):“Superconductive guidance system in operation.” MAN (OFF):“Chamber at maximum pressure.”
	196	HYUGA (OFF):“Final safety released!” HYUGA (OFF):“Everything in launch position!” WOMAN (OFF):“Release confirmed.”

	201		UrsusArctos: This is an ugly, off-model shot, and even the A.T. Field's shape is wrong (hexagonal rather than the proper octagonal)
	202	AOBA:“It's no good!”
	203	AOBA:“The power level is far too low to penetrate the AT Field at this range!”
	204	HYUGA:“But output is at maximum! Anything more is...”
	205	IBUKI (OFF):“Unit 02, psychograph readings are growing weaker!”
	206	RITSUKO:“What about the LCL's psychological barrier?!” IBUKI:“It's no use. It's not even working as a catalyst!”
	207	RITSUKO:“Prioritize life support. Shut out the feedback from the Eva.”
	208	IBUKI:“Yes, Ma'am.”
	209
	210	RITSUKO (MONO):“It's as if this light is probing Asuka's psychological wavelength.”
	211	RITSUKO (MONO):“Could it be that the Angel is trying to learn about the human mind?!”	UrsusArctos: Evangelion is a show that runs off the difficulty in human communication, and given that the Angels are alternate possibilities for human existence, this would seem to be the intention. Whether Arael would have succeeded in communicating with a mentally healthy individual is an open question.
