tr:Girlfriend of Steel 2
Girlfriend of Steel 2 (aka Iron Maiden) is a video game based on Neon Genesis Evangelion, released in 2005. "Gameplay" takes the form of a visual novel, with some dating simulation elements. The story is set in the alternate-universe that Shinji Ikari sees during Episode 26 of the original series, with Tokyo-3 at peace and Shinji (who acts the same as his Episode 26 AU counterpart) going about his daily life. This is a more light hearted universe, featuring Toji and Kensuke as pilots.
Although this game is a sequel to Girlfriend of Steel, it's a "spiritual sequel" only. The potential love interests of Shinji in the game are Asuka, Rei, and Kaworu, although Kaworu is eliminated as an option at one point during gameplay, not featuring an ending route.
The two possible endings are either: Shinji going with Rei, eventually marrying her with the two having a child together or Shinji says goodbye to Asuka when she leaves for Germany but he's still on the boat when it leaves harbor, resulting in Shinji going with Asuka to Germany.
Notes
