Plot:
14 years ago, the awakening of Unit-01, which seemed to be the first form of deification, brought about a shock of nearly three times, causing unprecedented changes in the world. After that, Misato Katsuragi (voiced by Kotono Mitsui) and other former NERV members left and established Wille to resist Seele and NERV. Wille ordered Asuka (voiced by Yuko Miyamura) and Mari (voiced by Maaya Sakamoto) to recapture Unit-01 and Shinji Ikari (voiced by Megumi Ogata) sealed in the satellite orbit, but absolutely prohibited Shinji from boarding Unit-01. Feeling the hostility around him, the ignorant Shinji followed Rei Ayanami (voiced by Megumi Hayashibara) to board the suddenly invaded Unit-09 and returned to the devastated NERV headquarters. Here, he unexpectedly reunited with Ayanami, whom he had been thinking about day and night, and learned from his father that he would co-pilot Unit-011 with the beautiful boy Kaoru Nagisa (voiced by Akira Ishida). The 14-year gap, the vicissitudes of life and emotional entanglements during this period made Shinji at a loss. The seemingly gentle Kaworu Nagisa revealed all kinds of incredible truths for him... This film is the third part of the four-part EVA new theatrical version.
