A determined Shinji asks Misato to let him pilot Unit-01. Gendo reveals that the purpose of the Shikinami and Ayanami clones is to enact the Human Instrumentality Project, and enters Unit-13. Ritsuko shoots him to no effect as Gendo has used the Key of Nebuchadnezzar to transcend humanity. In the Nerv vessel restraining the Wunder, Misato and Ritsuko Akagi confront Gendo.
Meanwhile, the Wunder is attacked by a new EVA, Unit-09A. Moments before being absorbed, Asuka is approached by her "original", revealing she is a clone of the Shikinami series. Unit-13 overpowers and absorbs Unit-02 according to Gendo's plan. However, Unit-02 refuses to attack Unit-13, forcing Asuka to remove her eyepatch, revealing the Ninth Angel contained within, converting Unit-02 into a "Pseudo-Evolved EVA"-Angel hybrid like Shinji's Unit-01 14 years ago. Asuka and Mari sortie and move to destroy Unit-13 before it can reactivate. Wunder is attacked by three Nerv ships and a swarm of EVA units. Asuka accepts the apology and recognizes he is growing up. Shinji apologizes to Asuka for being indecisive in either saving or killing her whilst she was under the control of the Ninth Angel in Unit-03 14 years ago. Before the mission, Asuka admits her past feelings for Shinji but states that she "grew up before him", referring to their actual ages being 28 but bodies being stuck at 14 due to the Curse of Eva, as well as Shinji's suspended animation between the events of 2.0 and 3.0. Meanwhile, Kozo Fuyutsuki, distressed over Shinji's treatment by Gendo Ikari in forcing him to experience the same loss as him, helps Gendo restart Unit-13. Wunder arrives to pick up Asuka, and Shinji decides to go with her, despite protests from the crew. Rei requires constant exposure to LCL and cannot maintain herself, decomposing in Shinji's presence.
Shinji meets Ryoji Kaji, the son of Misato Katsuragi and the late Ryoji Kaji, who died averting Third Impact. As Shinji slowly recovers, Rei explores the village and settles down, working as a farmer. Asuka expresses frustration with Shinji, force-feeding him. Toji is a doctor and has a child with Hikari, while Kensuke is a technician, and all are friendly to Shinji. They arrive at a settlement of survivors, and encounter Toji Suzuhara, Hikari Horaki and Kensuke Aida, now adults. Mari defeats the attackers, and the Wille team restores Paris.Īsuka Shikinami Langley, Rei Ayanami and Shinji Ikari, still despondent, are walking across the outskirts of Tokyo-3.
Upon being attacked by Nerv forces, they are defended by the Wunder fleet and Mari Illustrious Makinami in Unit-08. In Paris, a team from the Wille organization, led by Maya Ibuki, works on a system designed to restore the city to its previous state.
