===Shinji in Rebuild of Evangelion===


Shinji in [[Rebuild of Evangelion|Rebuild]] while mostly the same as his anime counterpart, comes across as somewhat more angry about his situation (although he isn't outwardly angry like his manga counterpart with [[Yoshiyuki Sadamoto|Sadamoto's]] take on the series). For instance, he calls [[Misato Katsuragi|Misato]] and other members of [[Nerv]] as being selfish that he's "left feeling scared" when he and [[Rei Ayanami|Rei]] have to pilot during the [[Episode 06|Operation Yashima]] battle. Somewhat similar to his feelings in [[The End of Evangelion]], Shinji realizes that he "has no freedom" and "has no choice but to pilot Eva" when he attempts to run away from Nerv after the [[Shamshel]] battle. Although he decides to stay in [[Tokyo-3]] instead of leaving like in [[episode 04]] of the series, Shinji can't help but feel that he's only needed for piloting Eva and that nobody truly cares for him.

These feelings are dissolved to an extent when Misato shows Shinji the [[Angel]] identified as [[Lilith]] in [[Terminal Dogma]], explaining to him why he and the rest of Nerv have to do what they can to prevent
[[Third Impact]] from happening. He agrees to pilot [[Evangelion Unit-01]] once more, and together with [[Rei Ayanami]] in [[Evangelion Unit-00]], the Angel [[Ramiel]] is eventually defeated during the Operation Yashima battle.
 
Shinji's relationships with the other characters in Rebuild are similar to those in the series. A difference with his relationships towards [[Misato Katsuragi]] and [[Rei Ayanami]], however, is that he is somewhat physically close to them as the film progresses. When Misato shows Shinji Lilith, Shinji lets Misato hold his hand. Also, when Shinji checks on Rei in her [[Entry Plug]] after Ramiel's defeat, the two hold hands as Rei smiles at him.
