01x06 - Showdown in Tokyo-3

[bunniefuu]

Just like the cruel angel

Young boy, become a legend

Even though the untested breeze
taps at the door to your heart

You just look solely at me and smile

So intent on seeking out that gentle touch

Such innocent eyes, still ignorant
of their destiny

But someday, you are sure to realize
that upon your back

You have the wings with which to fly
towards the distant future

The cruel angel's thesis

Soon, you will take flight from the windowsill

With your torrent of ardent pathos

If you are to betray our memories

You, who embrace these heavens and shine

Young boy, become a legend

We're detecting a high energy reaction
from inside the target!

What?!

The circumference area is accelerating!
It's converging!

It can't be!

No, dodge it!

Retrieve him, hurry!

The target has gone silent!

How's Shinji?

He's alive!

Unit 01 has been recovered.
En route to the 7th cage.

I'm going to the cage.
Take over for me, please!

Unit 01 secured!

Hurry with the cooling!
Unit 01 secured!

Hurry with the cooling!

The pilot's brain waves are erratic!

His pulse is very weak.

Increase life support to maximum power.
Give him a heart massage.

Yes, Ma'am!

Pulse confirmed!

Force eject the entry plug! Hurry!

Emergency LCL discharge!

Yes, Ma'am!

Come on, open the hatch! Hurry!

Shinji!

Decisive Battle,

From the data we've collected,
we're assuming that the target

automatically att*cks any opponent
within a certain range.

It's too risky for close range combat
in an Eva, isn't it?

What about its AT field?

Using half-measures like guided missiles,
a*tillery, or bombs

will inflict more damage on us
than on the Angel!

Offensively and defensively it's
almost perfect. A flying fortress.

What's the status on its drill?

At this moment the target
is directly above us,

penetrating the New Tokyo-3 Null Zone.

A giant shielded drill with
a diameter of 17.5 meters

is boring towards Nerv HQ.

The enemy is planning to att*ck Nerv
Headquarters directly.

Sassy ********!

The silver lining is that the central

Three more seconds, and
it would have been over.

In three hours, the replacement parts
should be installed.

Roger.

What's the status of Unit 00?

Re-activation itself should
prove no problem,

but there's still a feedback error.

So actual combat...

...is still impossible.

What's the condition of Unit 01 's pilot?

Enemy drill arrival: 9 hours, 55 minutes.

The situation certainly isn't favorable.

Shall we just raise a white flag?

Before we resort to that,

there's one little thing I'd like to try.

You want a sn*per to sh**t the target
from outside its f*ring zone?

Instead of trying to neutralize

I believe a pinpoint sh*t with a
high-energy beam is the only way.

What do the Magi say?

The responses from the Magi
Super Computers

were two affirmative and
one conditional affirmative.

So, our probability of success is 8.7 percent.

It's quite a high percentage.

I see no reason to raise an objection.
You may proceed, Captain Katsuragi.

Yes, Sir.

But you sure have come up with
a reckless plan,

Operations Director Katsuragi.

Don't be rude. It's not reckless!

It can be ex*cuted within the
nine hours we have left,

and has the highest chance of success.

This thing does? Really?

Okay, Rei! Take it away!

That's a piece of precision machinery,
so be careful!

Even so, our calculations
show that it will take

at least 180 million kilowatts to
penetrate that AT field.

Where are you going to get
that much electricity?

Where else? From all of Japan!

It may look ugly, but it's got a super-

Section 2 guarantees will stand up to
the enemy's particle beam

for at least seventeen seconds.

Good. Have you determined
the sn*per position?

Given the range to the target,
geographical features,

and taking power access into consideration,
this would be the spot.

Definitely looks good.

The sniping position will be atop Mt. Futago!

The operation will commence
at 00:00 tomorrow morning!

From this point on, this operation will be
called "Operation Yashima".

Roger.

Now, the only remaining problem
is the pilot.

Ayanami...

I'm here to brief you on the timetable
of Operation Yashima,

which will begin tomorrow at 00:00 hours.

Pilots Ikari and Ayanami will arrive
at the cage at 17:30 today.

At 18:00, Units 01 and 00 will activate.

Launch is at 18:05.

They will arrive at the temporary base
on Mt. Futago at 18:30.

There, they will stand by and
await further orders.

The operation will begin
promptly at midnight.

Here's a new one.

Don't show up half-asleep looking like that.

Sorry.

All I've been doing since
yesterday is apologizing.

Your meal.

I don't want to eat anything.

We'll be departing in sixty minutes.

Do I have to pilot that thing again?

Yes, you do.

I don't want to.

Maybe you can be so cool about it,

because you haven't had the kind
of experiences I've had yet.

I don't want to go through that again.

Then why don't you stay in bed?

Stay in bed?

I'll pilot Unit 01.

Dr. Akagi is already prepared to rewrite
Unit 01 's personal data files.

Miss Ritsuko is...

I'm leaving. Captain Katsuragi and
Dr. Akagi will be waiting at the cage.

Goodbye.

I'm sure this is the time.

Yeah, but they still ain't here.

Cool!

Go for it! We're counting on you!

There's no choice.
This is a makeshift solution.

There's no choice.
This is a makeshift solution.

So it'll be okay?

Theoretically, yes.

However, we won't know if the cannon barrel
and accelerator will hold until we try f*ring it.

This is the first time it's been fired
with such a high power output.

Here are your individual duties
for the operation.

Shinji...

Yes, Ma'am.
Shinji...

Your Unit 01 will be the gunner.

Yes, Ma'am.

Rei, you're in charge of defense with Unit 00.

Yes, Ma'am.

This is because Shinji has a higher
sync ratio with Unit 01,

and this operation will require
exceptional precision.

Since the positron beam will be
influenced by the Earth's gravity,

magnetic fields and rotation,
it will not fire in a straight line.

You must remember to make
adjustments for these deviations.

You must penetrate the core precisely.

But I've never practiced this!

Don't worry.

Just do what the manual says.

When the indicators converge
in the center, pull the trigger.

The computers will handle the rest.

Also, once you fire it,

it will take time before you can fire again

for cooling, reloading,
and replacement of the fuses.

Then, if I miss and the enemy sh**t back...

Don't think about unnecessary
things right now.

Just think about destroying it in one sh*t.

So it's crisis time.

I...

I just need to defend Unit 01, correct?

That's right.

Understood.

It's time. Both of you, get changed.

Yes, Ma'am.

We might die doing this.

Why do you say that?

You won't die.

Because I'll protect you.

...a large-scale power outage all across...

Why do you pilot this thing?

Because I'm bound.

Bound?

Yes, it's a bond.

With my father?

With all people.

You're very strong, Ayanami.

Because I have nothing else.

What do you mean, "you have nothing else"?

It's time. Let's go.
