[EVA] MOVIE "THE END OF EVANGELION" ENGLISH SCRIPT
Yasuyuki Sato
I've finally worked with my best editor who is pretty fluent in
Japanese (and I was born, raised, and educated in Japan) to
finish up my English translation of "The End of Evangelion". If
you happen to have an alpha or beta version of my translation,
please destroy it. This new version is much more faithful, and
it flows much more smoothly without loss of the actual meanings.
My editor and I got our act together for the users of our script
to enjoy the subtle connotations and speech modes in the
original script as much as possible. It seems that there are
already a few other translations out there, but I'm positive
that our translation is absolutely the best. I'm not saying
it's perfect. The toughest part of the script was that it
contained so many technical terms not normally used. For
example,
military: battalion, squad, defense line, pincer type attack,
anti-personnel defense system, anti-biochemical-weapon,
ballistic missile, super armor plating,
computer science: fire wall, master database, auxiliary
circuits,
biology: colonia/colony (BTW if you know its antonym, let us
know), propagule,
chemistry: bakelite,
Earth science: sedimentary layer, E-layer, F-layer (BTW, the
"altitude 220,000km in F-Layer" mistake is not ours, but it's in
the original),
astrophysics: world without uncertainty(?)
psychology: Destrudo, solenoid graph(?), ego boundary(?),
law: legislative protection, ultimatum,
Jewish/Christian bible and myths: Spear of Longinus, Lilith,
medium, stigma, World Tree, Tree of Life, Red Earth (clay),
Fruit of Life, Fruit of Sapience, Gaf's Chamber(?no idea)
place names in Japan: Go(u)ra, Gotenba, Mt. Futago, Nagao Pass,
slang: jerk-off fantasy, wank(er),
gainax's madeup terms: Human Instrumentality Project,
B-Danan(sp?), JSSDF, fifth malbolge(?no idea),
(Does ANYONE know all these terms in BOTH Japanese and English?)
If you have any comments, suggestions, or corrections to our
script, let us know.

Shinji I'm scared of Misato-san, and Ayanami, too...
Shinji Help me...
Shinji Help me, Asuka!
Shinji Hey, wake up... C'mon...
Shinji Wake up...
Shinji C'mon... C'mon...
Shinji Asuka! Asuka! ASUKA!!
Shinji Help me... Help me...
Shinji Help me... Help me...
Shinji Help me... Make fun of me again, like you always do!
Shinji C'MON!!
Shinji I'm so fucked-up...
Maya Passage to and from HQ is forbidden?
Hyuuga Still on first stage alert, huh?
Maya But why? That boy was the final Angel, wasn't he?
Aoba Yeah, all the Angels must have been eliminated.
Hyuuga Which means we've finally achieved peace, doesn't it?
Maya So, what about this place? What's going to happen to
the Evas when Sempai isn't around any more?
Aoba I think NERV is going to get disbanded. As for our
futures, I haven't the slightest idea.
Hyuuga Until they invoke the Human Instrumentality Project,
we'll just have to stick this one out ourselves, I guess.
Misato Since humanity is a failure which has already reached a
dead end in evolving as a colony,
Misato ...the Human Instrumentality Project will artificially
force the human race to evolve into a perfect single being.
Misato Sounds like a true utopia.
Misato And to do it, the committee plans to use neither Adam
nor NERV,
Misato ...but the Eva, just as Kaji-kun predicted.
Kiel The promised time has come. Now that the Spear of
Longinus is lost, we can no longer complete the project using
Lilith.
Kiel We must now accomplish it using the Eva Unit One,
Lilith's only remaining self.
Gendou However, we disagree with SEELE's scenario.
Fuyutsuki Man was brought into existence for the sake of creating
Eva.
Gendou Humanity should be stepping into the new world, that is
what the Eva series is for.
member We need not embark upon the Ark called Eva by
abandoning the shape called Man.
member This is a rite of passage for the rebirth of all
mankind, which has come to a dead end.
member The doom of extinction is also the joy of a new life.
member For God, Man, and all living things to soon become one
through death...
Gendou Death produces nothing.
Kiel We shall give you death.
Fuyutsuki "People have a reason for existence as long as they
continue to try to live,"
Fuyutsuki ...that is what she who chose to remain in Eva, wished.
Misato I see... So that was the true meaning of the Second
Impact...
Misato They spotted me?
Misato No, they didn't.
Misato So it begins.
OP Network No. 6 is down. Unable to connect Gora Ground
Circuits.
Fuyutsuki Left section, switch to blue emergency communications!
Fuyutsuki Open satellite uplink if necessary. You heard me!
Fuyutsuki Status of right section?
op Network access to the outside and all data circuits
locked off unilaterally.
Fuyutsuki Are they targeting MAGI?
Aoba Data invasion from every external terminal! They're
attempting to hack into MAGI.
Fuyutsuki As suspected. Is the source coming from MAGI 2 at
Matsushiro?
Aoba Negative, at least five other MAGI-type systems
involved.
Aoba Intrusions from Germany, China, and America are
confirmed.
Fuyutsuki SEELE is conducting an all out offensive. We're
outnumbered five to one.
Fuyutsuki Those are long odds.
op Fourth firewall has been penetrated.
Hyuuga Master database is shutting down. Negative! Unable to
cut off the intrusion!
Maya Additional breaches into the outer block, including
auxiliary circuits, unblockable.
Fuyutsuki This is awkward... Overrunning MAGI is synonymous with
taking over Headquarters.
Ritsuko I know. MAGI's autonomous defense, right?
man Right, report to Lt. Ibuki at the Secondary Command
Post for all the details.
Ritsuko He'd even ask for help from the woman he dumped... that
egotistical male.
announceme First Class Alert is now in effect.
Misato Status report?
Hyuuga Good morning. As of now, Tokyo-2 has issued Order
A-801.
Misato 801?
Hyuuga The annulment of special legislative protection for
Special Service Agency NERV,
Hyuuga ...as well as the immediate transfer of its command to
the Japanese government.
Hyuuga It's an ultimatum. Yes, that's right.
Hyuuga Even now, the military is hacking into MAGI. They're
really overwhelming us.
Maya Ibuki here. Dr. Akagi has just gone down to install
protection on MAGI.
Misato Ritsuko...?
Ritsuko Am I doing something foolish?
Ritsuko There's no logic between a man and a woman...
Ritsuko Isn't that right, mother?
op The restoration ratio of Gora Ground Circuits has
increased to 0.2%.
Misato How much longer?
Hyuuga Looks like she's going to make it. It's just what you
expect of Dr. Akagi.
Misato Only going after MAGI? They can't be such simple
asses...
Misato Maybe...
Fuyutsuki MAGI was only a preliminary attack.
Fuyutsuki Their real objective is the occupation of NERV
Headquarters and the capture of the remaining two Eva units.
Gendou Yes. Lilith, and even Adam, are here with us.
Fuyutsuki The old men have good reason to be impatient.
Maya They have ceased trying to hack into MAGI.
Maya Model B-Danan fire walls have been erected.
Maya No external system attacks possible for the next 62
hours.
Ritsuko See you later, mother...
member Ikari has installed protection 666 into MAGI.
member Breaking into it is no longer easy prey.
member We must now abandon the operation to seize MAGI.
Kiel We wanted to settle it as peacefully as possible, but
it's no use.
Kiel We shall begin with a full scale hostile takeover of
the NERV complex.
man We'll begin as planned.
op Radar sites 8 through 17 just fell silent!
Aoba Enemy tech battalions invading through Gora Defense
Line.
Hyuuga Two more battalions detected on approach from Gotenba.
Fuyutsuki And in the end, the last enemy is our own selves,
humanity.
Gendou All hands, main battle stations.
Maya Battle stations?
Maya Our enemy isn't an Angel, it's people like us...
Hyuuga They won't see it that way.
soldier Hey, what's going on? Hey!
soldier What the...? It's the South Hub Station!
op Daigatake Tunnel no longer in use. Fire outbreak in
West Carriage Five.
op Invaders have descended into first layer.
Misato The forces in the West building are decoys!
Misato Their real objective is capturing the Evas, so they
must be after the pilots.
Misato Protect Shinji-kun in Unit One, immediately!
Hyuuga Yes, ma'am!
Misato What about Asuka?
Aoba She's in infirmary room 303.
Misato I don't care, put her into Unit Two!
Maya But she still hasn't recovered her synchronization with
Eva yet...
Misato She'll be erased for certain out there. The optimum
place to hide her is inside the Eva.
Maya Roger.
Maya Discontinue medication of pilot and prepare for launch.
Misato Once Asuka is ready, we hide Eva Unit Two beneath the
subterranean lake.
Misato It won't be long before they find it, but it's better
than the Cage.
Misato What about Rei?
Aoba Whereabouts unknown. We haven't been able to locate
her.
Misato She's going to get killed. Locate her, immediately!
Hyuuga Unit Two launched. Entering route 8 and descending to a
depth of 70 fathoms.
Misato Now, launch Unit One. Position it within the GeoFront.
Aoba Impossible! The pilot isn't onboard yet!
Misato What the hell...?
announceme All barriers up to Layer 2 in Central Dogma are
shutting down.
announceme All non-combat personnel are to head for shelter on
Pathway 87.
Aoba Underground barrier 3 destroyed, intruders in Layer 2
section.
Fuyutsuki Approximately one full division of SSDF is committed
against us. Hostile takeover is merely a matter of time.
Gendou Professor Fuyutsuki, please see to the rest...
Fuyutsuki I understand. Say hello to Yui-kun for me.
op No response from group two.
op Unable to communicate with Computer Room 77.
Aoba They've blasted Linear Rail line 52.
Hyuuga How vicious. Even Angels were much better.
Misato What did you expect? None of us are used to killing
people.
man Cut the red cables before any others.
op Intruders in Layer 3, Block B!
op Unable to contain!
Aoba F-Block also under siege, detecting pincer type attack
in the main bypass!
Misato Sacrifice the three top layers. All combat personnel
are to withdraw immediately.
Misato Seal all passages and pipelines with Bakelite, all the
way to Section 803.
Aoba Yes, ma'am!
announceme District 703 beginning Bakelite injection, 30 to go.
Misato That should buy some time, even if just a little.
Hyuuga Major Katsuragi, they've cut off route 47 and group 3
is pinned down.
Hyuuga I'm afraid Shinji-kun will be...
Misato All non-combat personnel are to avoid engaging in close
combat at all costs.
Misato Our enemy are pros. If you can't retreat to Dogma,
you're better off surrendering.
Misato Forgive me, the rest is up to you now.
Hyuuga Yes, ma'am!
man All's well at Mt. Futago. How about Nagao Pass?
man It's taking longer than I thought.
man We never get the easy tasks.
Hyuuga The odds are against us.
Hyuuga We never were equipped with a full scale anti-personnel
defense system.
Aoba Well, anti-terrorist at best...
Hyuuga Once the JSSDF gets fully mobilized, this place isn't
going to last a minute.
Aoba I wonder now, maybe that's why they cut our defense
budget, to set us up for this.
Hyuuga Well, that may be...
Aoba Take the safety off.
Ibuki I... I can't shoot a gun!
Aoba You've done it a thousand times in training!
Ibuki But there weren't any people that time!
Aoba Idiot! If you don't shoot, you'll die!
Gendou Rei...
Gendou I felt certain you would be here.
Gendou Now is the promised time. Come, let us go.
radio Dogma Layer 2, fully secured. Transmit that.
radio Still can't secure the Secondary Command Post, or the
original MAGI system.
radio Engaged in battle with the Lower Layer Floor, left side
wing.
radio Fifth Malbolge regiment, commence heat dissipation
procedures immediately.
announce Terminate the Eva pilots upon location. You are
permitted to be indiscriminate in shooting non-combat personnel.
announceme Yanagihara's squad and Shinjou's squad have been
scrambled into the Lower Layer.
man Have located Third. We'll have him eliminated.
man Nothing personal, kid.
Misato Nothing personal here, either.
Misato Now, let's get moving... to Unit One.
radio How's Yamagishi's detachment at Cage 7?
radio We've secured the purple one. No problems with Bakelite
infusion.
radio Apparently they've already managed to eject the red
one. We're currently tracking its escape route.
Misato No use, these bastards are trying to physically isolate
Shinji-kun from Unit One.
Misato This is no time to stall.
Misato Shinji-kun, we have to hurry.
Misato Either run away now, or escape to the Eva!
Misato Sitting there doing nothing is the same as dying!
Shinji Help me, Asuka... Help me...
Misato Only now you turn to a girl for help? Running away,
deluding yourself... It's worse to leave things undone!
Misato Come on! Get up!
Misato GET UP!
Shinji No more... I want to die.
Shinji I don't want to do anything anymore.
Misato Stop talking like a spoiled brat!
Misato You're still alive, aren't you?! Make the most of your
life first, then die!
Fuyutsuki No matter, separation of Terminal Dogma is of higher
priority than this place!
Hyuuga They still won't touch us, even though they've blown up
everything else.
Aoba It would be easy enough to finish us off by blasting
this complex, but for the original MAGI system being down here, too.
Hyuuga They need to get their hands on it, completely intact
if possible.
Aoba Still, we've very little anti-biochemical-weapon
equipment.
Aoba If they use that stuff against us, we're in for it.
Hyuuga And don't forget the N2 Mine systems.
Aoba You guessed right!
Hyuuga Don't those bastards know how to make allowances?
Fuyutsuki Hmph, they are going overboard.
Ibuki Hey! Why do you want Eva so badly!?
Misato They want the Eva series to bring about the Third
Impact, instead of using the Angels.
Misato The Second Impact of fifteen years ago was deliberately
engineered by Man.
Misato However, by restoring Adam to an embryonic state before
the awakening of the other Angels,
Misato ...damage was kept to a minimum.
Misato Shinji-kun, just like Adam, we humans are born from the
source of all life called Lilith.
Misato Humanity is the 18th Angel!
Misato All the other Angels were possible evolutions of the
human race after discarding the humanoid form.
Misato However, they were such sad creatures that they just
rejected each other, just as humans did.
Misato Listen, Shinji-kun, our only alternative for survival
is to destroy the Eva series.
PM The phone lines just went dead.
text Nagano Prefecture - Neo-Tokyo 2
secretary Yes, ballistic missile impact was just confirmed three
minutes ago.
text Prime Minister's Official Residence Executive Office #3
PM The Human Instrumentality Project that NERV was
conducting behind our back...
PM To learn that their intentions were to cause Third
Impact and extinguish the Human Race... How absurd!
secretary Only man himself is capable of such self-hatred.
PM Well, the only thing left is to wind up NERV
Headquarters.
secretary Will you be entrusting redevelopment of the land to
China or Germany?
PM We'll probably end up selling it at a loss.
PM We have to seal off the land for at least 20 years,
just as we did to the former Tokyo.
man Surface layer heat is gone, no sign of any high
pressure steam escaping, either.
man The battalions have taken their positions.
man For the moment, Dogma Layer 3 and that purple one are
in our control.
man And the red one?
man Found 70 fathoms below the underground lake. Not sure
if the pilot inside is alive.
Asuka I'm alive...
Asuka I don't want to die... I don't want to die...
Asuka I don't want to die... I don't want to die...
Asuka I don't want to die... I don't want to die...

Asuka I don't want to die... I don't want to die...
Kyouko You can't die yet...
Kyouko Go on, keep on living.
Asuka I don't want to die... I don't want to die...
Asuka I don't want to die... I don't want to die...
Kyouko I'm not going to let you die yet.
Kyouko You can't die yet...
Kyouko No, don't kill me...
Asuka I don't want to die... I don't want to die...
Kyouko Go on, keep on living.
Asuka I don't want to die... I don't want to die...
Kyouko I'm not going to let you die yet.
Kyouko You can't die yet...
Asuka I don't want to die... I don't want to die...
Kyouko No, don't kill me...
Kyouko Please die for me.
Asuka I don't want to die... I don't want to die...
Kyouko You can't die yet...
Asuka I don't want to die... I don't want to die...
Kyouko Please die for me.
Kyouko Don't kill...
Asuka I don't want to die... I don't want to die...
Kyouko Keep on living...
Asuka I don't want to die...
Asuka I DON'T WANT TO DIE!!!!!
Asuka Mama... So this is where you were, Mama!
Asuka Mama!
man Wh- What the...
man Did we kill it?
Asuka Mama, Mama, now I know!
Asuka The meaning of the A.T. Field!
Asuka It's protecting me!
Asuka It's looking after me!
Asuka You've always, always been with me, Mama!
Ibuki Eva Unit Two just started. Asuka's safe! She's alive!
Misato Asuka?!
man The cable! Concentrate all fire on the bastard's power
cable!
Asuka Though the umbilical cable is gone...
Asuka ...I have 12,000 layers of super armor plating...
Asuka ...and the A.T. Field!!
Asuka So I don't stand to lose,
Asuka ...not to you bastards!
Keel Once more the detestable being called Eva has become a
hindrance to our plans.
Keel All things considered, it's time to use poison to cure
another poison.
Asuka The Eva series... So they've been completed...?
Fuyutsuki Committing all nine of the S2 equipped units... it's
overkill.
Fuyutsuki Could their intention be to make it happen now?
Misato Listen, Asuka, the Eva Series must be eliminated.
Misato I'll put Shinji-kun up there right away. Hang in there.
Misato So we can go to Unit One through the emergency route
20, correct?
Makoto Yes. The power supply is triply secured.
Makoto If you get in within three minutes, you can directly go
to Cage 7.
Asuka "Must be eliminated," eh?
Asuka Where does Misato get off talking that way to me, fresh
out of the hospital?
Asuka Nine units for the remaining 3 minutes 30 seconds...
Asuka I can only spend 20 seconds on each unit.
Asuka Erst!
Misato Here we are.
man You think they got away?
man Couldn't kill the target. Should we pursue them?
man No need for pursuit. We plan to blast that
place. Withdraw immediately.
man Roger.
Misato This should buy some time.
Misato I'm all right. It's no big deal.
Misato The power supply's alive. Looks like you can go.
Misato Listen, Shinji-kun, you're on your own from now on.
Misato Decide everything on your own without anyone's help.
Shinji I'm... no good.
Shinji I'm just no good.
Shinji I have no such right to pilot Eva after hurting and
killing people.
Shinji I thought that piloting Eva was the only choice I had.
Shinji But that was just me fooling myself. No one as clueless
as me deserves to pilot Eva!
Shinji There isn't anything I can do for the good of man!
Shinji I did something terrible to Asuka. I even killed
Kaworu-kun.
Shinji I don't have anything like kindness. I'm just sly and
cowardly.
Shinji I can't do anything but hurt people. So if that's true,
then I should just do nothing!
Misato I'm not going to pity you.
Misato If you don't want to get hurt, then do nothing and die.
Misato Crying isn't going to help you now, either!
Misato So, you hate yourself.
Misato That's why you also hurt people.
Misato Because you know it's more painful to hurt people than
being hurt yourself.
Misato Whatever hardships are waiting for you, your decisions
are yours alone.
Misato It will all be worthwhile, Shinji-kun. It's all about
you.
Misato Think about what you can do, without fooling yourself,
and make your own amends!
Shinji But you're not me, Misato-san!! What the hell do you
know!!
Misato I'm not you, so what?!
Misato Are you going to quit and leave things as they are?
Misato If you don't do anything now, I'll never forgive you!
Misato I'll never forgive you for the rest of my life!
Misato It's not like what you do now must be absolutely
right. You'll notice your mistakes later and regret them.
Misato I've done that many times myself.
Misato Just piling up feelings of premature joy and
self-hatred...
Misato But every time that happened to me, I felt I'd stepped
forward.
Misato Listen, Shinji-kun, pilot Eva once again and settle it
once and for all.
Misato For your own sake as an Eva pilot, seek your answer as
to what you came here for, and why you are here.
Misato And when you finish settling it, be sure to come back.
Misato Promise me.
Misato See you later.
Misato That's a grownup kiss. We'll pick up from there when
you get back.
Misato It's just like Asuka said,
Misato ...if this was going to happen,
Misato ...I should have changed the carpets.
Misato Isn't that right, Penpen?
Misato Kaji-kun... I did do the right thing, right?
Asuka Damn, they're persistent! And I can't count on that
Shinji moron!
Ritsuko I've been waiting for you, sir.
Ritsuko I'm sorry,
Ritsuko ...but in your stead, I took the liberty of altering
MAGI's programming just now.
Ritsuko This is a final request from your daughter,
Mother... Let's die together.

Asuka Not when Mama's watching me!

Fuyutsuki Not good. Is it the Spear of Longinus?
Kiel At last, our prayers begin.
member And the original Spear of Longinus has returned to our

Misato Hmm? Oh yeah, Ritsuko. It's okay. There's still some
more time.
Kaji It's already been a week since you started loafing
around here.
Misato I'm gradually getting the hang of it. Okay already?
Misato Maybe, I do things like this to confirm I exist here.
Asuka How stupid! It's nothing but lonely adults pleasuring
each other.
Ritsuko Because if nothing else, at least your body's needed.
Misato It makes me feel wanted, so I'm happy.
Asuka Because that makes it easy for you to think that you're
worthy, right?
Shinji This is Misato-san? She does things like this?
Misato That's right, this is also me.
Misato It's the me that you don't know, revealing two hearts
so closely intermingled.
Misato Pain comes along hand in hand with reality. So, you
have to cope somehow.
Asuka Ah, well. I wonder if I'll be doing things like Misato
does when I grow up.
Asuka Say, wanna kiss?
Misato No.
Asuka Or are you scared?
Misato Kids shouldn't do that.
Asuka Well then, here we go.
Asuka It's not like you understand me at all. Don't come near
me.
Shinji I do understand.
Asuka No, you don't, idiot! You think you understand me?
Asuka You think you can save me out?
Asuka Now that's really an arrogant conceit! You couldn't
possibly understand me.
Shinji There's no way I could understand you. Because you
don't say anything, Asuka.
Shinji You never say anything, and you expect me to understand
you, when you don't even talk at all? That's impossible!
Rei Did you try to understand, Ikari-kun?
Shinji I did try to understand.
Asuka Idiot! I know that I'm your jerk-off fantasy.
Asuka Go ahead and do it as usual, 'cause I'll be here
watching you.
Asuka If you don't become all mine, I don't want anything.
Shinji Then, be nice to me.
Misato I am being nice to you.
Shinji You're lying! You're just hiding behind a smile. All
you want is to keep things vague.
Rei Because truth hurts everyone. Because that's very, very
heart-aching.
Shinji Even though vague things just get me cornered.
Rei That's an evasion.
Shinji I'm scared the way things are.
Shinji I might become unwanted again some day.
Shinji I feel awkward. I feel uneasy. Let me hear your voice!
Shinji Make me your partner! Care about me!
Shinji I want to be helpful to you in some way. I want to be
with you all the time.
Asuka Then, don't do anything. Stay away from me, because all
you do is hurt me.
Shinji Help me, Asuka. C'mon! It's got to be you, Asuka.
Asuka You're lying.
Asuka It doesn't matter to you who it is, does it?
Asuka You're scared of both Misato and First, and your mother
and father...
Shinji Asuka, help me.
Asuka ...so you're just running away from them to me.
Asuka Because that's the easiest way and you don't get hurt.
Shinji C'mon, help me.
Asuka You've never really loved anyone.
Asuka You have only yourself right here. And you've never
even felt you love yourself.
Asuka Pathetic.
Shinji Help me...
Shinji C'mon...

Shinji Nobody understands me.
Rei So you didn't understand at all.
Shinji I thought it was a world without uncertainty, without
anything awful.
Rei So you alone believed that people are all like you.
Shinji You betrayed me! You betrayed my feelings!
Rei It's only your misunderstanding from the beginning. You
assumed so without asking.
Shinji Nobody wants me. So everybody, just die!
Rei But what do you have your hands for?
Shinji It doesn't make any difference to anyone whether I
exist or not. Nothing ever changes. So everyone, just die!
Rei But what do you have a heart for, then?
Shinji Or rather, it's better if I am not here. So me too,
just die!
Rei Then, why are you here?
Shinji Is it okay for me to be here?

Rei ...the vague world in which you can't tell where you
end and other people begin,
Rei ...the silent world in which you exist out to infinity,
and thus, exist nowhere.
Shinji Am I dead?
Rei No, it's just that everything's united into one.
Rei This is the very world you wished for.
Shinji But this is wrong. I think it's wrong.

Kaworu Is it all right even if AT Fields hurt you and others
again?
Shinji I don't mind. But what are you two within my heart?
Rei "Hope." ...that people may be able to understand each
other.
Kaworu Along with the words, "I love you."
Shinji But that's just make-believe. It's just selfish belief.
Shinji It's something like a prayer.
Shinji It can't possibly last forever.
Shinji Sooner or later, it will betray me...
Shinji ...and desert me.
Shinji Still, I felt like seeing them again. I think the
feelings I had then were real.
Kaworu Reality exists somewhere you don't know. Dream exists
in reality.
Rei And truth exists within one's heart.
Kaworu Because it's people's hearts that create their own
forms.
Rei And a new image changes both one's heart and form.
Rei Imagination, or the power to create, is creating its
own future and time flow.
Kaworu Except that people don't change if they don't move on
their own will.
Rei So you must get back your lost self on your own,
Rei ..even if you lose your own words and end up taking in
other people's words.
Rei Anyone can return to human form if they can imagine
themselves in their own hearts.
Yui Don't worry.
Yui All living things have the power to try to restore
themselves,
Yui ...and the heart to try to continue to live.
Yui As long as you try to continue to live, any place can
be a heaven.
Yui Because, you are alive,
Yui ...and there's a chance to become happy everywhere.
Yui It's all right as long as the Sun, the Moon, and the
Earth are still there.
Yui So it's all right now?
Shinji I don't know where my happiness lies yet.
Shinji But from now on, I'll be here, and I'll continue to
think about how it is that I was born here.
Shinji But that's only to review the obvious over and over
again.
Shinji It's for myself to be myself.
Shinji But Mom, what are you going to do, Mom?
Fuyutsuki Man creates Eva to imitate God... Is this the real
goal?
Yui Yes. Humans can only live on this planet,
Yui ...but the Eva can live forever with the human heart
that dwells within.
Yui Even five billion years from now when the Earth, the
Moon, and even the Sun are gone, it will remain.
Yui If at least one person can continue to live, however
lonely, if one can continue to live...
Fuyutsuki ...then the proof that humanity lived remains
eternally, right?
Shinji Good bye, Mom.
Asuka Makes me sick...

Here's a suggestion for "fifth malbolge"--in the "Inferno"
of Dante's "Divine Comedy", there's a place or level
called the "Malebolge"--I'm not sure of the spelling or
meaning, (though I'm pretty sure "male" means "evil") but
if you know someone who knows Italian or
the "Comedy", you might ask for info. Dante's hell is
divided into different levels or "circles", like the
1st circle, 2nd circle, etc. So the "5th" of the term may
have something to do with this.
Just some random thoughts. Hope it helps.

That must be it. The correct spelling is "Malebolgia". You can
find some description on the web.
