TWIZ TV - Neon Genesis Evangelion Pilot - Series Premiere Transcript

Transcriber's Notes - "Neon Genesis Evangelion (Japanese title: Shin-seiki Evangelion)" is the brand new anime from GAINAX, which is famous for "Gunbuster" and "Nadia: The Secret Blue Water." The first episode of it was broadcasted in Tokyo Japan on October 4, 1995. I love Gunbuster very much. Although I expected much from it, they never failed to measure up to my expectations. It was a great anime of supreme high quality and the direct descendant of Gunbuster. Never miss this TV anime series if you like it.

What am I going to do? #Japanese below the photo of Shinji is his name 'Ikari Shinji' #written by katakana. He wears a school uniform, which most of #junior high school students must wear in Japan. His wear in #this episode seems a kind of them. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- TELEPHONE Booth *A boy is calling in a telephone booth Phone: All normal lines are out of order due to the state of special emergency. Shinji: Out of order ... I shouldn't have come ... #The Traffic panel shows "Tokyo-3: 13km, Gotenba: 35km." Gotenba #is located at the foot of Mt. Fuji. #You can see some handwriting on the photo. It says: Dear #Shinji-kun. Because I'll come to meet you, wait for me, please. #Attention to here (her bust)! Shinji: I may not be able to meet her. I can't help it. I'll go to the shelter. *A sudden strong wind Shinji: Uh Shinji: Ahh *A gigantic creature walking Shinji: Ahhhhhh! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- UN Tokyo-3 in Headquarters Force *Operational Display #I wonder if the place where I think UN Force Headquarters in #Tokyo-3 is the same place as where I regard as Nerv #Headquarters. #I'll check it. But unfortunately I don't have enough information #to confirm it. Female Voice: The identifiable moving object is still approaching this place. Male Voice: We've got the visual image of the target. I'll transfer it to the main screen. *Two men (Gendo and Fuyutsuki) Fuyutsuki: It must be 15 years. Gendo: Yes, certainly. Fuyutsuki: Angels. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- TITLE ----------------------------------------------------------------------- EPISODE: 1 ANGEL ATTACK ----------------------------------------------------------------------- IN the City *Attacks against Angel Aircraft: All missiles hit the target!

It's moving toward Tokyo-3 as before. Female Voice: It cannot be stopped with the air force firepower. *Missile attacks *3 commanders of the UN force Sub Commander A: Total war! Mobilize all divisions at Atsugi and Iruma Bases to the battle! #Atsugi the US bases in Japan. Iruma is the Japanese Air Defense #Force's base. Sub Commander B: Don't hold back! Smash the target at any cost! *Missile attack. But no effect. Sub Commander A: Why?! It must have been a direct hit! Sub Commander B: The tank battalion was totally destroyed. Guided missiles and gun bombs have no effect on it... Sub Commander A: Useless! With such poor firepower, we'll get nowhere! *Gendo & Fuyutsuki Fuyutsuki: It is protected by AT-field as we expected. Fuyutsuki: As I thought, AT-field has been expanded. Gendo: Normal weapons have no effect on Angels. *A phone call One of Cmdr: Yes, sir. I'll employ that as previously arranged. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- IN the plain *Angel in the distance *Misato looking through field glasses Misato: Hey! It can't be... Are they going to use a N2-mine?! Lie down! *A big explosion ----------------------------------------------------------------------- UN Tokyo-3 in Headquarters Force Sub Cmdr A: We did it!

Female Voice: Shock wave is coming! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- IN the plain *Misato and Shinji near the overturned car Misato: Are you all right? Shinji: Yes, but something is crunchy in my mouth. Misato: That's fine! Are you ready? Misato: Here goes! *They succeeded in turning over the car. Misato: Thanks a lot. Good job. Shinji: Katsuragi-san... Misato: Call me Misato. Shinji: Me, too. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- UN Tokyo-3 in Headquarters Force Cmdr-in-Chief: How is the target? Female Voice: It can't be captured due to radio wave obstruction. Sub Cmdr A: It was such a massive explosion. It has been brought to an end. Male Voice: Sensors are operating again. Female Voice: An energy reaction in the center of the explosion! Sub Cmdr A: Whaaaaaaaat?! Male Voice: Visual Image is regained. Commanders: Oh...! Cmdr-in-Chief: It was our trump card ... Unbelievable ... Sub Cmdr A: What a monster! *Angel regenerating itself ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ON the Headquarters Nerv to way *Misato driving her broken car and making a phone call Misato: Sure. Don't worry. He is under my protection at top priority. Prepare a car train for us. A linear one, please. Yes. I'll bear the full responsibility for him because it was my idea to meet him in the first place. Bye. Misato (thinking): But it's terrible! I've just restored my car... It is a jalopy now... Misato (thinking): 33 loan repayments to go ... and the repair costs... Misato (thinking): What was even worse, my only good clothes have been ruined... Shinji: Misato-san... Misato (thinking): I was in high spirits. My goodness... Shinji: I say, Misato-san... Misato: Eh, what did you say? Shinji: Is it OK that you did such a thing...? *Batteries which she seems to stole... Misato: Ah, It's OK. No problem. It is during an emergency... We can't do anything if the car doesn't run. In the addition, I am an international officer even if I don't seem like it. Shinji: That doesn't seem like a very good excuse. Misato: Uninteresting boy. You look so calm, very unlike your pretty face. Shinji: You think so ... Misato: Hmm, are you angry? Sorry, I'm sorry. It's natural because you a boy. Shinji: You are childish for your age, aren't you? *Misato driving a car roughly ----------------------------------------------------------------------- UN Tokyo-3 in Headquarters Force *Injured Angel stands in the plain Fuyutsuki: It is regenerating itself as we expected. Gendo: Otherwise, it would be useless as an independent weapon. Cmdr: Ohhh... Fuyutsuki: Oh, I'm impressed. It can also amplify its own functions. Gendo: In addition, it has acquired intelligence. Fuyutsuki: The next invasion is a matter of time. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- IN car the Headquarters Nerv toward train *A car train departing from the station Announce: The gate is closing. Attention, please. The train is about to depart. This train ... Shinji: The special agency Nerv? Misato: Yes, the secret organization directly attached to the United Nations.

Shinji: I heard from the teacher that it's an important job for protecting the human race. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- NERV Headquarters *Gendo standing before 3 commanders of the UN force in Nerv Headquarters Cmdr-in-Chief: You are the commander of this operation from now. We'll watch how you will deal with it. Gendo: Yes, sir. Sub Cmdr B: Thinking of our available weapons, I'll have to admit that we have no effective measures against the target. Cmdr-in-Chief: But, are you confident of defeating it? Gendo: Nerv exists for that purpose. Cmdr-in-Chief: We expect much from you. #UN Commanders disappear. Female Voice: The target is still as it was. Male Voice: The present effective rate of the interception is 7.5 %. Fuyutsuki: The U. N. Troops can't help it.... What are you going to do? Gendo: I'll activate Evangelion Unit One. Fuyutsuki: Unit One? But we have no pilot. Gendo: No problem. Another spare will be brought. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SHINJI car the in train Misato and *Shinji and Misato in her car on the car train Shinji: Are we going to where my father is?

Misato: Thanks! #Japanese on the top of the paper is 'Ikari Shinji'. The one at #the bottom is 'Come! Ikari Gendo'. Misato: Then, read this. #'Top Secret' is on Misato's side. 'Welcome to Nerv' is on #Shinji's side. Shinji: It's about my father's work... Are there anything for me to do? Shinji: I can't say I'm surprised. He can't write to me ... unless he wants me to do anything. Misato: I know. You consider him to be a tough customer. Me too. *Underground city appears Shinji: Ah, great! It's a real geofront! # 'Geo-front' is English word which was made in Japan. It means #underground space which the people can use for living or #manufacture etc. Because Japan is small, the development plan #of underground space is studied. Misato: That's right. This is our secret base, Nerv Headquarters. It's also the foundation for rebuilding the world and the fort for the human race. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- EYECATCHES ----------------------------------------------------------------------- NEON GENESIS EVANGELION ----------------------------------------------------------------------- NEON GENESIS EVANGELION EPISODE:1 ANGEL ATTACK ----------------------------------------------------------------------- IN the Headquarters Nerv of building *Shinji and Misato on the moving pavement Misato: That's strange.

The handwritten 'WC' beside the #map means 'lavatory/rest room'. #Japanese on the top means 'Nerv Headquarters'. The handwritten #one on the map means 'HERE!' Misato: I'd really rather not wear a skirt this place. Anyway, where has Ritsuko gone? Sorry that I'm not familiar with this place. Shinji: We passed here some time ago. Misato: But don't worry. All systems exist to be used. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- RESEARCH Labotory Announce: Chief of Project E at Section 1 of Technical Department, Dr. Akagi Ritsuko, Dr. Akagi Ritsuko. Please contact with Captain Katsuragi Misato at Section 1 of Operation Department immediately. #Misato's rank is 'Ichi-i' in Japanese. #Japanese on the cylinder seems to means 'Air'. *Ritsuko takes her wet suit off. Ritsuko: I'm dumbfound. She must have got lost again. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ELEVATOR * Ritsuko coming into the elevator which Shinji and Misato took Misato: Uhhm. Ha...Hi, Ritsuko... Ritsuko: What did you do, Captain Katsuragi? We are short of hands and time! Misato: Sorry... Ritsuko: He is that boy. Misato: Yes, 'the third child' according to Malduck's report. Ritsuko: Nice to meet you. Shinji: Ah ... me too. Misato: He is very much like his father ...... in that they aren't lovable. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- NERV Headquarters *Gendo descending by the lift Gendo: Well, I trust you.

All hands to battle stations! Prepare for the interception of the enemies on the ground. Misato: Did you hear what she said? Ritsuko: That's serious. Misato: By the way, how is Unit One? Ritsuko: It is equipped with B type. It is being frozen. Misato: Does it really work? I heard that it has never worked yet. Ritsuko: The possibility of it working is 0.000000001%. O9-system seems a good name for it. Misato: You mean it won't work, don't you? Ritsuko: Oh, how rude you are! It isn't zero. Misato: It's only a number. Anyway, to say "It doesn't work at all" ... will be no excuse. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- TOP the of room storage *A ship going on the pink water *Only a line of light coming through the entrance *A sudden blackout Shinji: Uh,uh, it's pitch dark. *The big face of Evangelion before Shinji Shinji: Ah, face ... A gigantic robot ... Ritsuko: You can't find this in the manual. Shinji: Eh? Ritsuko: This is the Multi-purpose Humanoid Fighting Machine EVANGELION which the humanity finally developed. Shinji: Is it also Father's work? Gendo: Yes. *Gendo appears at the top of the room Gendo: It's been a long time. Shinji: Father ... Gendo: Sally. Misato: Sally?! Unit Zero is being frozen... No kidding ... Do you mean that you'll activate Unit One? Ritsuko: We have no other choice. Misato: Hey! We can't have Rei get it on. We have no pilots. Ritsuko: One has been just delivered. Misato: Are you serious? Ritsuko: Ikari Shinji-kun, you will get into it. Misato: But, even in the case of Rei, it took seven full months for her to synchronize with Eva. Ritsuko: You may only take a seat. We'd never expect more from you. Misato: But ... Ritsuko: At present, the interception against Angel's attack is top priority. We have no choice but to have someone get into it even if there is a little potential for synchronizing with Eva. Misato: You may be right... Shinji: Why did you call me? Gendo: For exactly the reason you think. Shinji: Do you mean that I should get into it and fight against the guy which I saw. Shinji: No way! What are you saying now?! I have been thinking that you didn't want me?! Gendo: I called you just because I need you now. Shinji: Why me ...? Gendo: Because others can't ... Shinji: I can't do that. I've neither seen it nor heard it. Why are you saying that I can do it? Gendo: Hear the explanations. Shinji: No. I can't. It's impossible. Gendo: If you get into it, stop wasting time. Otherwise, get out! *Many maintenance men looking at the scenery anxiously *Angel attacking the ground above the Nerv Headquarters Gendo: That guy seems to have found this place. Ritsuko: Shinji-kun, we have no time. Misato: Get into it. Shinji: No way. After coming all the way, it's ridiculous. Misato: Shinji-kun... Why did you come here? Don't run away, from your father, above all from yourself. Shinji: I understand. But, I don't think I can do that! Gendo: Fuyutsuki. *Fuyutsuki on the screen Gendo: Wake up Rei. Fuyutsuki: Is she available. Gendo: She is still alive at least. Fuyutsuki: Yes. Gendo: Rei. Rei: Yes. Gendo: The spare turned out to be useless. Gendo: Again. Rei: Yes. Ritsuko: Reconfigure the system of Unit One for Rei! Restart! Female Voice: Yes, sir. I'll stop the current process and restart it. Shinji: I'm unnecessary as I expected... *Rei on the bed coming in *Angel attacking again Shinji: Watch out! *Eva protected Shinji with the right hand Shinji: Ah! Male Voice: Eva moved! What was the matter with it?! Male Voice: It tore off the binding attached to the right arm. Ritsuko: It's impossible! Even the entry plug has never been inserted yet. It can't move! Misato: It reacts without the interface... Or rather, did it protect him? ... He can do it! *Shinji runs to Rei and holds her *Rei suffering very much Shinji: Don't run away, Don't run away, Don't run away, Don't run away, Don't run away ...... I'll do it.
