《新世紀福音戰士》（日語：新世紀エヴァンゲリオン，英語：Neon Genesis Evangelion）是由日本動畫製作公司Gainax和龍之子製作並由庵野秀明導演的動畫系列片。本劇共計26集，最早於1995年10月4日在日本東京電視台公開播出，並於1996年3月27日結束其首次播映。《新世紀福音戰士》是一部機甲風格的世界末日動畫。故事聚焦於準軍事組織NERV招募來的一名十多歲男孩，駕駛一架名為「EVA」的大型半機器人，對抗被稱為「使徒」怪物。這場演出主要發生在全球災難之後的未來東京，以EVA的駕駛員和NERV的成員為中心，試圖阻止災難再次發生。

製作經緯

Gainax工作室的準備工作最早始於1993年7月，同年9月20日在其內部召開了會議將項目名稱定為「人造人Evangelion」，但是首兩集的製作卻是始於1994年9月，中間持續了數月。劇本創作的時間也很長。據導演庵野秀明的回憶，第一集的劇本在六個月之後才完成。在1995年7月22日至23日舉行的第二屆「Gainax festival」上，首兩集以16毫米格式放映在200人的面前。儘管當時成品依然處於初期階段，但兩集都收到了觀影者的好評。這兩集的單集導演由《EVA》副導演鶴卷和哉擔任，庵野秀明和摩砂雪擔任單集副導演，他們親自繪製了全集的分鏡。作畫監督分別由鈴木俊二和本田雄擔任。配音始於1995年3月27日。在這期間製作進度很不穩定，並且並沒有遵循事件的時間順序。由於不可抗力的原因，第六集是緊隨在前三集之後製作的，隨後才是第四和第五集。第四集由甚目喜一負責繪製分鏡，這一集也是唯一沒有庵野秀明參與編劇的劇集。從第三集以後，薩川昭夫加入了編劇隊伍，他參與了本劇其他幾集的情節構思和劇本創作。

播映歷史

在完成了最初幾集的製作後，《EVA》第一集於1995年10月4日正式播出，比原計劃延期了很久。播映最初未被大眾所重視（儘管受到了那些被邀請參加早期放映的Gainax影迷的熱烈響應），觀眾範圍增長緩慢，而且主要是靠口口相傳。

第16集標誌着一個明顯的轉變，這個轉變把Evangelion的下半部分描述為更多的是心理上的而不是行動或冒險。這種重點的改變部分是由於故事的發展，但也部分是因為到這一點，製作已經開始耗盡資金和無法滿足時間表；這種崩潰已經被至少是鶴卷和哉導演認定為推動Evangelion轉變為內部衝突：

我不介意。時間表完全是一場災難，電影的數量直線下降，所以有些地方的質量很不幸地受到了影響。然而，緊張的工作人員，因為我們都變得更加絕望和瘋狂肯定出現在電影...關於生產系統完全崩潰的時候，有一些意見認為,「如果我們不能做令人滿意的工作，那麼繼續下去還有什麼意義？」然而，我並不這麼認為。我的意見是，「為什麼我們不向他們展示整個過程，包括我們的崩潰。」

儘管如此，到了第18集，EVA1號機的狂暴行為已經引起了足夠的轟動，「被批評為不適合兒童觀看的動畫節目」，而第20集也同樣因為畫面外的葛城美里和加持良治發生性關係而受到批評。隨着這種受廣歡迎，第一個卷錄影帶《Genesis 0：1》（內含首兩集）剛一發售就賣光了。當這個系列的最後一集播出時，這個故事顯然還沒有結束：第三次衝擊和人類補完計劃被暗示已經開始甚至結束，但是最後兩集主要集中在劇中人物的心理上，給觀眾留下了深深的疑惑，不清楚究竟發生了什麼。為了更好地解釋結尾發生的事情，《新世紀福音戰士劇場版：THE END OF EVANGELION》取代或補充了電視放映的第25和26集。

該劇於2000年首次在北美舊金山地區的美國公共廣播公司（PBS）成員電視台「超級電視台KTEH」（現在的KQEH）播出，作為其「Sunday Late-Prime「（晚上9點至午夜12點）科幻節目系列的一部分。前兩集在2003年2月24日至25日作為Toonami的巨型機器人周的一部分首次在卡通網絡上以譯製格式播出，不過這兩集的內容都經過了大量的剪輯。後來，從2005年10月20日到2006年4月13日，全劇在Adult Swim上幾乎未作剪輯的全部播出。

2004年，英語版授權方A.D. Vision在其白金版DVD套裝中發布了導演剪輯版的第21至24集。導演剪輯版中包括了部分重製過的片段以及一些新加片段，以更好地解釋發生在《新世紀福音戰士劇場版：THE END OF EVANGELION》中的事件。

劇集

每一集都有兩個標題：一個是原版的日文標題，另一個是由日本製作方Gainax自己選擇的英文標題，以吸引眼球的形式出現。大多數情況下，官方英文標題並不是日文標題的直接翻譯。例如，第二集的日文標題的直接翻譯是「陌生的天花板」，但英文標題卻是《野獸（The Beast）》。然而，有時候這兩個標題要麼相似，要麼完全相同，就像第一集的標題《使徒來襲》一樣。2019年Netflix播映的版本使用了日語片名的直接翻譯，如下表所示。

Overstressed from being made an Evangelion pilot, the previous fight with Shamshel, and fighting with Misato, Shinji runs away from home, soon encountering Kensuke in a field. Shinji is soon recaptured by NERV and reluctantly accepts to resume piloting EVA Unit 01, but Misato states that if he cannot have the right attitude then he should quit being a pilot. She forces his resignation, and after saying goodbye to his classmates Shinji prepares to leave Tokyo-3 by train. However, at the last minute both Shinji and Misato have an epiphany that gives them a deeper understanding of each other. Shinji does not board his train to leave Tokyo-3 and decides to stay. Misato welcomes him back.

Evangelion Unit 00 is finally repaired after it went berserk during the experiment it was in before the events of the first episode. Shinji tries to get to know the pilot of Unit 00, Rei Ayanami, better but finds that she is incredibly insular, has no friends, and records of her past have been erased. A new and powerful Angel arrives: Ramiel, a floating monolithic metal diamond with a powerful particle beam blast which nearly kills Shinji in Unit 01.
第六集 EPISODE:6	決戦、第3新東京市 "Rei II"（Showdown in Tokyo-3）	決戰，第 3 新東京市	Hiroyuki Ishido	庵野秀明 Akio Satsukawa	1995年11月8日 (1995-11-08)
The Angel Ramiel is boring down through the upper layers of Tokyo-3 to reach NERV headquarters in the geofront below. Possessing a strong beam attack and the strongest AT field ever observed, a direct assault by an Evangelion would meet with failure. A plan ("Operation Yashima") is devised in which Shinji in Unit 01 will use an advanced prototype positron rifle to shoot Ramiel from outside its target zone, which must use the entire electrical output of Japan in order to operate, while Rei in Unit 00 shields Unit 01. Shinji's first shot misses while Ramiel retaliates with its energy beam, but Rei steps in front of Unit 01 to shield him. The shield is quickly worn down by the Angel's attack, and Shinji just barely manages to fire the second shot in time, destroying the Angel as Unit 00 is almost destroyed. He then comes out of his Evangelion to open the hatch's to Rei's, finding her alive and crying with relief. When Rei shows her confusion at not knowing how to respond, Shinji just tells her to try smiling.
第七集 EPISODE:7	人の造りしもの "A Human Work"（The Works of Man）	人所製造的東西	Keiichi Sugiyama	庵野秀明 Yōji Enokido	1995年11月15日 (1995-11-15)
Dr. Ritsuko Akagi, NERV's chief scientist, explains to Shinji more of the classified real nature of Second Impact, the Angels, and the mission of the Evangelions to defeat them. A rival organization of NERV builds a prototype giant robot, Jet Alone, meant as an alternative to the Evangelions, which this new robot line will supersede. Unlike the Evangelion units, which rely on external or limited battery power, the Jet Alone has an on-board nuclear reactor and can thus function indefinitely without external power. However, during the first public test of Jet Alone, it goes out of control and starts marching toward a nearby city with its reactor building to a meltdown. Shinji keeps the robot at bay in his Evangelion while Misato gets inside and attempts to shut down the reactor, only to find out that the apparent threat of a meltdown was staged by an act of sabotage. After everything is said and done, Ritsuko and Gendo discuss the fate of Jet Alone, revealing that they were behind the sabotage.
第八集 EPISODE:8	アスカ、來日 "Asuka Strikes!"（Asuka Arrives in Japan）	明日香，來到日本	Kazuya Tsurumaki	庵野秀明 Yōji Enokido	1995年11月22日 (1995-11-22)
Misato brings Shinji and his friends Toji and Kensuke on a flight to a United Nations carrier battlegroup which is transporting Evangelion Unit 02 and its fiery German pilot, Asuka Langley Soryu, to Japan. Escorting Asuka to Japan is Misato's old boyfriend, Ryōji Kaji. In the middle of some awkward introductions and reunions, a massive aquatic Angel, Gaghiel, begins attacking the fleet, and Asuka determines that she will fight it using Unit 02, by playing "hopscotch". However for both due to their unfriendly meeting, she takes Shinji with her. The Angel drags Unit 02 underwater, and Misato devises a plan to kill it by lodging two sunken battleships in its mouth and then firing all weapons into it. By cooperating, Asuka and Shinji pull off the plan and the Angel is killed, and it is revealed that both Shinji and Asuka broke their synchronization records. Kaji is seen delivering Adam to Gendo, and Asuka transfers to Shinji's class.
第九集 EPISODE:9	瞬間、心、重ねて "Both of You, Dance Like You Want to Win!"（Mind, Matching, Moment）	瞬間，心心相印	Seiji Mizushima	庵野秀明 Akio Satsukawa	1995年11月29日 (1995-11-29)
Asuka moves into Shinji and Misato's apartment where he and Misato live. As Asuka adjusts to Japan, the Angel Israfel attacks. After apparently being defeated, Israfel splits into two identical copies and defeats both Units 01 and 02. In desperation the UN takes the drastic step of dropping an N² bomb on the Angel, temporarily disabling it and giving NERV six days to find a way to defeat it. They determine that both parts of the Angel must be defeated perfectly simultaneously, so on Kaji's suggestion, Misato puts Shinji and Asuka in a training regimen which has them spending as much time together as possible in order to synchronize their actions to pull off a coordinated dual attack set to a timed dance routine. Asuka and Shinji do not take well to such close conditions however, and the training is almost deemed a failure. Nevertheless, Shinji and Asuka eventually learn to put aside their differences and are able to pull off the routine almost flawlessly, destroying the Angel.
第十集 EPISODE:10	マグマダイバー "Magma Diver"（The Magma Diver）	熔岩潛航者	Tsuyoshi Kaga Hiroyuki Ishido	庵野秀明 Akio Satsukawa	1995年12月6日 (1995-12-06)
The Evangelion pilots (save for Rei) are excited about their upcoming class trip to Okinawa, but they are upset to learn that they cannot leave Tokyo-3, since they have to be on standby in case of an Angel attack. A dormant Angel, Sandalphon, is discovered in an embryonic stage nesting deep in the magma of an active volcano, and in the hopes of gaining greater insight into the Angels, Asuka is sent to capture it by lowering Unit 02 into the magma, while it wears a special giant coolant suit for protection. However, the Angel soon awakes and advances beyond its embryonic stage, forcing Asuka to battle Sandalphon while deep beneath the surface of the magma. Asuka defeats the Angel, but almost dies when Unit 02's protective equipment fails after suffering damage during the battle. Shinji, however, jumps to her rescue the last moment.
第十一集 EPISODE:11	靜止した闇の中で "The Day Tokyo-3 Stood Still"（In the Still Darkness）	在靜止的黑暗中	Tatsuya Watanabe	庵野秀明 Yōji Enokido	1995年12月13日 (1995-12-13)
The electrical power in Tokyo-3 is completely cut off as a result of sabotage by parties unknown, trapping most NERV personnel inside, and worse, trapping all three Evangelion pilots outside of the base. A new Angel, Matarael, appears and begins to burn its way down to NERV headquarters by using a corrosive acid attack, and everyone inside must struggle to power up the Evangelions, as the pilots try to make their way back into Central Dogma through a maze of closed corridors and air ducts. The pilots then enter their Evas and go into battle. After traversing more vents and passageways, they come face to face with the Angel. Asuka defends Shinji and Rei from Matarael's corrosive acid, while the other two pilots retrieve Shinji's rifle. Shinji then uses the rifle to destroy the Angel.
第十二集 EPISODE:12	奇跡の価値は "She said, 'Don't make others suffer for your personal hatred.'"（A Miracle's Worth）	奇蹟的價值	Hiroyuki Ishido	庵野秀明 Akio Satsukawa	1995年12月20日 (1995-12-20)
While Gendo and Fuyutsuki are out on a mission to Antarctica, a massive Angel, Sahaquiel, appears in Earth's orbit, well beyond the reach of the Evangelions, and launching several N² bombs at it has no effect. The Angel attacks by dropping small pieces of itself onto Earth below, calibrating its aim: once it has zeroed in on Tokyo-3, the main body of Sahaquiel will fall to Earth in a massive kamikaze attack to destroy Tokyo-3. All three Evangelions are deployed at once in a race to reach the Angel before it hits, hold it back by projecting their own AT fields, and destroy it. The operation is a success, and Shinji, much to his own surprise, receive words of praised from Gendo for his efforts. Shinji realizes that getting praise from his father might be his main motivation for being a pilot.
第十三集 EPISODE:13	使徒、侵入 "Lilliputian Hitcher"（Angel Infiltration）	使徒入侵	Tensai Okamura	庵野秀明 Mitsuo Iso	1995年12月27日 (1995-12-27)
The pilots are undergoing a synchronization test directed by Ritsuko deep within NERV headquarters when a new Angel, Ireul, appears within the base itself, being initially mistaken for corrosion. This Angel is actually a collection of millions of microscopic organisms, which interact to create a living biological computer circuit. Ireul infects NERV's computer network, and then infiltrates two of the three Magi supercomputers that control the base before Ritsuko is able to set up a firewall to slow its advance. Ritsuko comes up with a scheme to use the Angel's rapid adaptive ability against it and force it to evolve into a benign state, but must race to implement the program before the Angel gains control of the base's self-destruct. After successfully pulling off the plan and destroying the Angel, Ritsuko gives Misato some insight about the Magi's workings, relaying the story of how her mother based its design on her own personality.
第十四集 EPISODE:14	ゼーレ、魂の座 "Weaving a Story"（Seele, the Seat of the Soul）	Seele，魂之座	Masahiko Ohtsuka Ken Ando	庵野秀明	1996年1月3日 (1996-01-03)
The first half of this episode is a clip show, in the form of a report by Seele reviewing Gendo's actions, summarizing the first season of episodes and the story up until this point. In the second half, Ritsuko conducts an experiment to determine if pilots can be switched between the Evangelions they normally pilot. Rei can synchronize with Unit 01 fairly well, but when Shinji attempts to synchronize with Unit 00, it goes violently berserk inside of the base, in a manner identical to the failed activation test that took place before Shinji's arrival in Tokyo-3. As before, Unit 00 attacks the hangar's observation booth, smashing the window. However, Rei was standing at the window instead of Gendo, as was the case in the first test, causing Misato Katsuragi to wonder if Unit 00 was trying to kill Rei. Meanwhile, Ritsuko feels that Unit 00 was trying to attack Ritsuko herself. At the end of the episode, Rei uses Unit 00 to bring the Lance of Longinus recovered from Antarctica to the deepest level of NERV's base, Terminal Dogma.
第十五集 EPISODE:15	噓と沈黙 "Those women longed for the touch of others' lips, and thus invited their kisses."（Lies and Silence）	謊言與沉默	Naoyasu Habu	庵野秀明 Akio Satsukawa	1996年1月10日 (1996-01-10)
Kaji begins to make clandestine investigations into NERV's dark secrets, after which he, Misato, and Ritsuko attend a wedding. Meanwhile, Rei and Shinji stay after class to clean up while Asuka is set up on a blind date by Hikari. Shinji meets Gendo at his mother's grave. Later that night, at Misato's apartment, Asuka kisses Shinji, which nearly suffocates him. Misato and Kaji end up rekindling their old romance, but she also discovers he is a double agent, sent as a spy by the Japanese government. Kaji, in turn, reveals to her that NERV is hiding things from her. He shows her what he believes to be Adam, the first Angel, which is being kept deep underneath NERV headquarters.
第十六集 EPISODE:16	死に至る病、そして "Splitting of the Breast"（The sickness unto death, and then...）	致死之病，然後...	Kazuya Tsurumaki	庵野秀明 Hiroshi Yamaguchi	1996年1月17日 (1996-01-17)
A new and extremely bizarre Angel, Leliel, appears in the sky over Tokyo-3, apparently a black and white sphere. All three Evangelions move in to attack, but Shinji's attack is useless, and he along with Unit 01 are absorbed into a growing shadow that has engulfed the city. Ritsuko determines that Leliel exists on a higher dimension of existence, which can only be explained by mathematical concepts. The shadow on the ground, described as being 600 meters wide but only three nanometers thick, is the actual body of the Angel, and the sphere in the sky is its true shadow. Fearing that Unit 01 has been completely lost, NERV prepares to drop all of its remaining N² bombs into the Angel, hoping that this will destroy Leliel even though it could easily kill Shinji as well. While trapped in Leliel, Shinji goes on an introspective mental journey. As the battery power completely drains and life support runs out in Unit 01, Shinji suddenly feels a ghostly woman embracing him, and he realizes that she is his mother. Outside Leliel, Misato and Ritsuko witness Unit 01 violently tear its way out of Leliel's shadow, thereby killing the Angel. Shinji is recovered alive and well, but his experiences inside the Angel have left him deeply unsettled.
第十七集 EPISODE:17	四人目の適格者 "Fourth Child"（The Fourth to be Qualified）	第四個適任者	Minoru Ohara	庵野秀明 Shinji Higuchi	1996年1月24日 (1996-01-24)
Disaster strikes unexpectedly when NERV-02, NERV's second branch base in Nevada, mysteriously disappears in a flash, resulting in the loss of everything in a radius of eighty-nine kilometers and thousands of people. The incident coincided with an experiment to install an S² engine, capable of giving an Evangelion an unlimited power supply, into Evangelion Unit 04, one of the two new Evangelions which have recently finished construction in the United States. Panicking after the accident involving Unit 04, the United States government demands that Evangelion Unit 03, built in NERV-01, NERV's first branch base in Massachusetts, be removed from its soil as quickly as possible. As Unit 03 is about to arrive in Tokyo-3, Toji Suzuhara becomes the new pilot for it.
第十八集 EPISODE:18	命の選択を "Ambivalence"（Life and Death Decisions）	生死的抉擇	Tensai Okamura	庵野秀明 Shinji Higuchi	1996年1月31日 (1996-01-31)
Unit 03, being transported from the United States to Japan via airplane, flies through a microscopic Angel disguised as an odd cloud, infecting Unit 03. During Toji's first synch test, Unit 03 goes berserk and mutates into the Angel Bardiel. Possessing both the power of an Angel and the form of an Evangelion, Unit 03 destroys the test facility and advances toward Tokyo-3. All three Evangelions are sortied against Bardiel, but the Angel rapidly defeats both Unit 02 and Unit 00. Although Shinji does not know that Toji is trapped inside Bardiel, he refuses to use Unit 01 to attack it, wanting to try to save the pilot. As Unit 03 attacks Unit 01, Gendo orders that Shinji be cut off from control of Unit 01 and that Unit 01's dummy plug autopilot system be activated. Under the control of the dummy plug, Unit 01 savagely attacks Bardiel, tearing the possessed Evangelion to shreds and crushing its entry plug. After the battle, the already emotionally devastated Shinji is even more horrified as he sees Toji being taken from the wreckage of the entry plug.
第十九集 EPISODE:19	男の戰い "Introjection"（A Man's Battle）	男子漢的戰鬥	Masayuki	庵野秀明 Akio Satsukawa	1996年2月7日 (1996-02-07)
Shinji, horrified and emotionally devastated by the battle between Unit 01 and Bardiel and witnessing Toji's near-death, as well as Gendo's indifference to the situation, quits NERV for a second time. However, as he is leaving Tokyo-3, the Angel Zeruel appears and easily defeats the other Evangelions. After speaking with Kaji, who reveals the truth as to why the Evas are necessary to combat the Angels, namely to prevent them from making contact with Adam and thereby trigger the Third Impact which will result in the annihilation of mankind, Shinji returns to NERV just before the Angel penetrates NERV headquarters and engages the Angel in Unit 01. The Angel succeeds in overpowering Unit 01 as its batteries expire and blasts away the Evangelion's chest armor, revealing a core identical to those of the Angels. As the Angel attacks Unit 01's core, Shinji pleads with the Evangelion to start working again. Unit 01 goes "berserk", re-engages and defeats the Angel, and then tears apart and eats the Angel's corpse, absorbing its S² engine in the process.
第二十集 EPISODE:20	心のかたち 人のかたち "Weaving a Story 2: oral stage"（Of the Shape of Hearts and Humans）	心之貌，人之形	Masahiko Ohtsuka	庵野秀明	1996年2月14日 (1996-02-14)
During the climax of the massive fight against the Angel Zeruel, Shinji achieved a 400% synchronization ratio with Unit 01, a level thought impossible. However, because of this, Shinji has merged with the Evangelion, and his body has reverted to LCL inside the entry plug. Over the course of thirty days, as Unit 01 stands immobile in its hangar, Ritsuko struggles to come up with a way to restore Shinji. Meanwhile, Shinji's consciousness goes on an introspective odyssey while merged with Unit 01 in which he comes into contact with the soul of his mother, Yui Ikari. After speaking with Yui, Shinji is "reborn" from Unit 01's exposed core. Later that evening, Misato and Kaji resume their love affair. During their meeting, Kaji hands her a chip which details all his findings from spying on NERV, telling her it might be his last gift to her.
第二十一集 EPISODE:21	ネルフ、誕生 "He was aware that he was still a child."（The Birth of NERV）	Nerv 誕生	Hiroyuki Ishido (TV) Shunji Suzuki (DC)	庵野秀明 Akio Satsukawa	1996年2月21日 (1996-02-21)
Deputy Commander Kozo Fuyutsuki is kidnapped and interrogated by Seele, who are outraged that in its last battle Unit 01 absorbed the S² engine from an Angel into its body, so that it no longer requires an external power source and can now function indefinitely. Meanwhile, Kaji goes AWOL to try to find out the truth about NERV. As Fuyutsuki is interrogated by Seele, he recounts in flashbacks how he first met Gendo and Yui, the dark events surrounding Second Impact, and how NERV and the Evangelion project were born. Flashbacks also reveal the history of Misato, Ritsuko, and Rei. Fuyutsuki is rescued by Kaji, and Fuyutsuki warns him that Seele will want him dead now. That evening, Kaji is shot by an unseen assassin. Misato receives a voicemail from Kaji, in which he urges her to continue his search for the truth about NERV, and from its nature she deduces that he is dead and breaks down in grief.
第二十二集 EPISODE:22	せめて、人間らしく "Don't Be."（Staying Human）	至少要像個人類	Akira Takamura (TV) Kazuya Tsurumaki (DC)	庵野秀明 Hiroshi Yamaguchi	1996年2月28日 (1996-02-28)
After being defeated yet again by an Angel, Asuka's synchronization ratio continues to drop, affecting her ability to pilot Unit 02. Flashbacks reveal Asuka's tragic childhood, which shaped her current abrasive personality. A new Angel, Arael, appears in Earth's orbit, well outside the range of any Earth-based weaponry, including the Evangelions. Asuka is told that she will be Rei's backup for the confrontation with the Angel. Infuriated, she launches herself and confronts Arael on her own. However Arael uses a telepathic attack which forces Asuka to relive traumatic events from her past, causing such mental distress that Asuka completely loses synchronization and Unit 02 shuts down. Gendo orders Rei to retrieve the Lance of Longinus and then use it against the Angel. The Lance succeeds in penetrating Arael's AT field and destroys it, but the Lance achieves escape velocity and enters a lunar orbit. Asuka is again angered by her defeat, worsened by her hatred of Rei.
第二十三集 EPISODE:23	涙 "Rei III"（Tears）	淚	Shoichi Masuo (TV) Masayuki (DC)	庵野秀明 Hiroshi Yamaguchi	1996年3月6日 (1996-03-06)
Following the last Angel's assault on her mind, Asuka sinks into clinical depression. The next Angel, Armisael, attacks, and attempts to merge itself with Unit 00, causing it to make contact with Rei's mind, as past Angels did with Shinji and Asuka. In order to save Shinji, Rei self-destructs Unit 00 in order to destroy Armisael. Rei is revealed to be "recovered" after a supposed near-death experience. Seele, wanting to get to the bottom of the incident, subjects Ritsuko to a humiliating interrogation with Gendo's consent. Wanting revenge on Gendo, Ritsuko betrays him by revealing several dark truths to Shinji and Misato about the Evangelions and Rei, particularity that the latter is but one of several backup clones. In her anger at Gendo, Ritsuko coldly murders all the Rei clones.
第二十四集 EPISODE:24	最後のシ者 "The Beginning and the End, or 'Knockin' on Heaven's Door'"（The Last Cometh）	最後的使者	Shoichi Masuo (TV) Masayuki (DC)	庵野秀明 Akio Satsukawa	1996年3月13日 (1996-03-13)
As Asuka's depression has grown to the point that she is reduced to catatonia, Seele sends Kaworu Nagisa to NERV in order to be the replacement pilot for Unit 02. At first Shinji and Kaworu bond and quickly become friends. However, it is soon revealed that Kaworu is in fact the final Angel, Tabris, and has been sent to merge with Adam in Terminal Dogma at the bottom level of NERV headquarters. Kaworu commandeers Unit 02, and Shinji engages it with Unit 01 in a fierce fight while in free-fall as they descend to Terminal Dogma. Kaworu reaches the Angel in Terminal Dogma as Shinji defeats Unit 02, but realizes that the Angel is not Adam but Lilith. Realizing it is the way things are meant to be, he then implores Shinji to kill him to prevent humanity from being destroyed. Shinji hesitates, but finally kills Kaworu. Later, traumatized by the day's events, Shinji tries to talk to Misato, but she is too distracted by her own struggles to be of comfort to him.
第X集 EPISODE:25	終わる世界 "Do you love me?"（The Ending World）	結束的世界	Kazuya Tsurumaki	庵野秀明	1996年3月20日 (1996-03-20)
The Human Instrumentality Project begins, merging the souls of mankind into a single entity. Shinji, Rei, Misato, and Asuka struggle with their reasons for existence. Shinji discovers that he has created a solitary existence for himself, a world in which he alone can exist.
第X集 EPISODE:26	世界の中心でアイを叫んだけもの "Take care of yourself"（The Beast that Shouted 'I' at the Heart of the World）	在世界中心呼喊愛的怪獸	Masayuki Kazuya Tsurumaki	庵野秀明	1996年3月27日 (1996-03-27)
The Human Instrumentality Project continues as mankind attempts to complete its existence. Shinji continues to struggle with the impact of his personal existence, and eventually views a world (resembling a light-hearted, comedic high school setting) in which he is not an Evangelion pilot. Shinji, now understanding that his existence is not fixed, destroys the constrictive shell which he had formed around himself. He is met by all of the other characters from the series, who applaud and congratulate him, and, in response, he thanks them all.

With the Angels defeated, Commander Gendo Ikari and Seele finally break their relationship and Gendo attempts to start Third Impact with Rei and the Angel Lilith in Terminal Dogma. Seele orders the Japanese Strategic Self Defense Forces (JSSDF) to attack Tokyo-3 and NERV headquarters, eventually leading to Tokyo-3's destruction with an N² mine. Asuka, realizing that her mother's soul was watching over her inside Unit 02 all along, manages to synch up again with the Evangelion and repulses the JSSDF's attack on NERV, prompting Seele to retaliate by sending in the nine Mass Production (MP) Evangelions, Units 05 through 13, to fight Unit 02. Meanwhile, Misato rescues Shinji from advancing JSSDF troops and brings him safely to Unit 01, but is mortally wounded. Ritsuko tries to initiate NERV HQ's self-destruct as an act of petty revenge against Gendo, but it fails due to her mother's programming, at which point Gendo kills her. In a tough battle, Asuka is able to defeat the MP Evangelions, but Unit 02's batteries run out, and the MP Evangelions reactivate despite their wounds because they are fitted with S² engines. The MP Evangelions proceed to brutally eviscerate Unit 02. Shinji leaves the Geofront in Unit 01 and, upon seeing the remains of Unit 02, cries out in anguish.

Gendo starts Third Impact with Rei, but feeling Shinji's anguish, she rejects Gendo and merges with Lilith to become a god-like being. The MP Evangelions crucify Unit 01 with their Lance of Longinus replicas, and centering around the Rei/Lilith being, create an Anti-AT field which spreads over the entire world, reducing everyone to the primordial soup of LCL, merging into a single super-being as all souls merge. In a surreal sequence (in which Shinji imagines himself in different scenarios interacting with the people he has come to know and care about during his time as an Eva pilot), Shinji examines his life's meaning with Rei and what he truly wants, and after talking with the soul of his mother in Unit 01, decides to reject Instrumentality, accepting individual existence and the possibility of pain over the painless loss of identity. He is told all living things will have the choice of returning to individual existence if they can remember it. The Rei/Lilith being and the MP Evangelions die. In the end, Shinji wakes up on the beach of the Sea of LCL, which has formed over Earth, and finds that Asuka is lying next to him, inexplicably alive, her injuries sustained during her battle with the Mass-Produced Evas covered in bandages. Shinji, still in an emotionally fragile state, straddles the seemingly unresponsive Asuka and attempts to strangle her, but stops himself when she raises her hand to his face and caresses it. At Asuka's action, Shinji comes to his senses and breaks down, crying uncontrollably.
