Properties of an A.T. Field
Typically, A.T. Fields are invisible. They can interact with objects to cause them to move, and it is hypothesized that they are the source of some of the Angel's ability to levitate (most notably, Kaworu and Sachiel.) The A.T. Field can create air distortion when activated as seen in Episode 03, when Evangelion Unit-01 raises its A.T. Field. The same effect is visible during the fight between Evangelion Unit-01 and the Kaworu-Controlled Unit-02. The field becomes visible when it violently collides with anything else, forming concentric octagonal yellow lines[1]. This can be seen in Episode 02 when Evangelion Unit-01 collides with Sachiel's A.T. Field. It is also seen in Episode 22 when Arael's A.T. Field deflects a blast from a positron rifle.
- ↑ Although when an A.T. Field is visible, it's usually concentric octagons. However, there are 2 instances where this is not the case. First, in Episode 06 when Nerv staff reviews an energy blast that deflects off of Ramiel's A.T. Field, it is seen as hexagons on the display, even though they were octagons earlier; this is a visual continuity error. The second instance is in Episode 13 when lasers were deflected by Ireul's A.T. Fields which were purple hexagons and were not concentric; this is most likely a reference to the movie The Andromeda Strain.
