Zeruel is the Eleventh Angel, a vaguely humanoid floating creature with razor-sharp fold-up "arms". Zeruel is as large as an Evangelion, but does not have humanoid limbs. Its feet are vestigal stumps that hang from it as it floats just above the ground. Meanwhile, Zeruel's distinctive razor-arms are folded up upon themselves when not in use into small packets undeneath its bony shoulders, visually somewhat like an accordion, but when in use they rapidly extend to a great length. Forked at the tips, Zeruel's razor-arm weapons are sharp enough to instantly slicing through the limbs of an Evangelion. Zeruel has a bony "face" which appears like a malformed skull. Zeruel's body is strong enough to survive the point-blank detonation of an N² bomb, and the Angel's core, located on its front, possesses a movable protective membrane capable of shielding its core when threatened. Zeruel is capable of producing an awesomely powerful energy-blast from its eyes, capable of piercing 18 out of 22 layers of armor plating between the surface of Tokyo-3 and the GeoFront in a single shot (which Ramiel using its massive drill took hours to do). Its energy-blast is also able to blast off Eva 01's arm in a single shot (Sachiel's beam attack did not succeed in seriously damaging Eva 01, and even Ramiel's powerful energy beam took several seconds to pierce through much of Eva 01's armor plating). Like Sachiel, Zeruel's energy-beam attack takes the shape of crucifixes.

Battle

Appearing soon after the fight against the 13th Angel, Bardiel, Zeruel attacked NERV before it had time to fully recover from the previous Angel's attack. Zeruel rapidly blasted its way straight into the GeoFront, piercing through all of the defensive armor layers almost instantly, and then descended into the GeoFront. Because of the speed of its attack, NERV had no time to try to engage it outside, and deployed Eva 02 inside of the GeoFront to engage it. Asuka fired on Zeruel with a full range of guns and rocket-launchers, but Zeruel's AT Field was so strong that even this concentrated fire from Eva 02 had no effect. Zeruel then unfolded its razor-arms, and instantly amputated both of Eva 02's arms. Enraged, Asuka recklessly charged Eva 02 at the Angel. Just as Zeruel was about to decapitate Eva 02, Misato quickly ordered Asuka's connection with her Eva severed so the shock of Unit 02's head being sliced off would not kill her. Zeruel proceeded towards NERV HQ, as Eva Unit 00 was deployed against it. With no time to repair Eva 00 after its fight with Bardiel, Unit 00 went into battle missing its left arm. As a result, Rei charged Eva 00 at Zeruel with an N² bomb cradled in its remaining right arm, then jammed the N² bomb at Zeruel's core through its AT Field. However, Zeruel covered its core with a protective membrane, and the N² bomb did not succeed in harming it, while extensively damaging Eva 00 and the GeoFront. Zeruel then slashed at the wounded Eva 00, and it too was incapacitated.

Zeruel then crashed into the NERV headquarters' pyramid itself, and descended to Central Dogma, crashing through the wall into the command center's central display area. Just as it was about to fire its energy-blast and kill the entire NERV comand staff, Eva 01 (piloted by Shinji) crashed through another wall and punched it away. Pushing the Angel away, the pair then crashed through another wall into the Evangelion pens themselves and continued fighting. Zeruel blasted off Eva 01's left arm, but Eva 01 was still able to keep fighting and force it into one of the Evangelion launching catapults. Misato then fired the catapult, to at least get the Angel out of the base, as Shinji pushed Zeruel's face against the side of the shaft to grind it against the wall as they were fired upwards.

Upon reaching the surface, the pair tumbled in mid-air until Zeruel landed on the ground with Eva 01 on top of it. Despite Zeruel's awesome power, and the loss of one arm, Eva 01 was still able to use its remaining arm to savagely pummel Zeruel and tear savagely at its bony face-plate, and Eva 01 was on the verge of gaining the upper hand in the fight when its internal battery power ran out.

Zeruel then threw Eva 01 against the hillside and blasted apart Eva 01's chest plate, revealing its own core. Zeruel used its razor-arms to steadily stab at Eva 01's core, and was on the verge of destroying it. However, Unit 01 then entered "berserker mode" an Shinji entered into a (previously thought to be totally impossible) 400% synchronization ration with the Eva. Eva 01 quickly pushed its hands straight through the razor-edge of Zeruel's right arm while suffering no damage, then kicked Zeruel onto its back while ripping the Angel's arm off. Eva 01 then horrifically merged Zeruel's arm with the stump of its own left arm to regenerate it. Zeruel tried to attack Eva 01 with its other razor-arm, but Eva 01 wielded its own AT Field like a weapon, shattering Zeruel's remaining arm and sending the razor-sharp fragments flying back at it, tearing it to pieces. Eva 01 then advanced on Zeruel like an animal and the crippled Angel tried to fire another energy-blast at it, but Eva 01 simply snapped its neck back and then immediately began to physically devour Zeruel's body. Horrified NERV personnel looked on as Eva 01 ate the Angel's corpse, culminating in Eva 01 consuming Zeruel's S² Organ. This resulted in Eva 01 no longer needing any external power supply to function.

Notes

  • The black and white color pattern on Zeruel's front vaguely resembles a human face (seen from the left) with its core as the "eye".
