Evangelion


A Fistful of Memories is the eleventh release of Yoshiyuki Sadamoto's manga for Neon Genesis Evangelion.

Overview

Kaworu tries to befriend Shinji, but he continues ignoring him. Kaworu goes to converse with the Seele members, who order him to attack NERV, revealing that Kaworu is an Angel controlled by Seele. Kaworu pilots Unit-02 without entering in it, and goes to find Adam, but discovers the Angel within NERV is Lilith, not Adam. Thinking that Kaworu could make a Third Impact by touching Adam, Misato sends Shinji in Unit-01 to kill Kaworu. He asks Shinji to kill him, so that Seele will not control his life. Shinji does so, but he remains saddened, unwilling to do anything. With Kaworu's death, the attacks from Angels ended, but Seele invades NERV to kill Gendo.

Synopsis

Stage 71: Adam's Offspring

After learning the shocking truth, Misato began to realize some of NERV's and Seele's dark secrets. Kaworu met the third Rei, and she says that "he feels the same as her", and asks him why. Kaworu give her a clue that the matter that comprises them is the same, but what makes them different is who they lived for, and reminds her of what she (Rei II) said before. Shinji knew that Kensuke, Hikari and all his classmates have left the city, and that he won't have anyone he can call a friend. Kaworu tries to make friends with Shinji but the latter refuses his request.

Gendo interrogates Ritsuko for destorying the Dummy System, who answers that she was nothing to him the start, and begins to cry. Gendo goes to Unit-01 (Yui), and says that his goal of rejoining with her will soon be realized, and then swallows the embryo Adam. Kaworu talks with Seele monoliths and they talk about how Lilin were the false successors of the Earth, and that their plan is to make humanity reborn as the true successors, children of God. Keel told Kaworu that Adam's soul exists within him, but its body in now within Gendo's body, and orders him to go to Terminal Dogma.

Stage 72: The Last Messenger

Misato spies on Kaworu but couldn't know what is doing. Hyuga gave her the information he found about Kaworu's amazing ability to set his synchro ratio as he wants, and he tells her that he found the place where Ritsuko is being held at. Misato went to ask Ritsuko about the true identity of Kaworu. Ritsuko says that in 2000, people tried to return Adam to its embroynic form before the awakening of its offspring, which resulted in the occurence of the Second Impact. She also said that among the data of the Katsuragi Expedition, there were attempts to use human genes to withhold Adam's soul, which she speculated to be Kaworu himself.

Kaworu goes to Unit-02 and activate it from outside the Entry plug to go to Terminal Dogma. NERV discovers that but Asuka is still in the hospital and there was no Entry Plug, which confirmed Ritsuko's speculations. Misato orders Shinji to go after Kaworu and kill him. Although hesitated at first, Shinji goes to persue him and catch up, but have to fight Unit-02. Shinji tells Kaworu to stop, while fighting with Unit-02, while Unit-01's Prog Knife broke Unit-02's, it was about it clash with Kaworu, but he revealed A.T. Field to protect himself.

Stage 73: Arrival At The Barrier

Kaworu reveals his A.T. Field, which surprised Shinji and Kaworu told him that everyone has an A.T. Field, which is "the barrier of the heart", but denies that saying the only the Evangelions and Angels have A.T. Field. Unit-02 attacks Unit-01 with its Prog Knife, which Shinji replied the same. Misato reminds Hyuga if Unit-01's signal disappears, then NERV should be self-destructed, to avoid the occurence of the Third Impact.

Kaworu sets his A.T. Field to block every contact from happening, while they reached Terminal Dogma. Shinji tries to follow Kaworu but Unit-02 catches Unit-01's leg, while Kaworu has reached the giant crucified being, which he identified as Lilith. Shinji defeats Unit-02 and goes to Kaworu, who tells what will happen when he make the Third Impact occurs, and that his life doesn't matter, and wishes Shinji to kill so he can be free. Shinji is confounded and tells Kaworu it isn't fair to die like this.

Stage 75: The Missing Heart

Stage 76: The Final Enemy

Notes

  • Rei went to Terminal Dogma later than the anime, and thus didn't help Shinji in stopping Unit-02.
