Intelligence:
-Could tell he was being followed by NERV agents while walking
Skills:
Chef:
-Is noted to be an exceptional cook, and is especially good at grilling and seasoning meat
Pianist:
-Despite lacking any confidence in his skills, he was able to perform a duet with Kaworu while playing for the first time
-With Kaworu’s help, he was able to improve to the point of actively keeping up with him
Personality:
-Like his original counterpart, Shinji is an emotionally fragile, self-loathing wreck who craves praise and fears being hated or hurt
-Blames himself for his father leaving him, and will do anything he can to earn his love and praise
-This was his main motivation for piloting Unit-01
-Due to his self-loathing, he believes he isn’t worth protecting, nobody in NERV cares about him, and they’re only using him to pilot the Eva
-He also doubts his abilities and believes everyone else does too
-Unlike the TV version, this Shinji is a lot angrier about his situation and more willing to call out NERV for their immoral actions and how they don’t care about their pilots
-This Shinji is also less introverted and actively participates in social situations
-Is unwilling to kill humans while piloting Unit-01 and will actively refuse to fight them
-Over the course of Evangelion 2.0 Shinji becomes a lot more pessimistic, growing to hate his father and the world as a whole, believing that the only good things in the world are eventually destroyed
-After witnessing Kaworu’s death, Shinji undergoes a brief depression that leaves him catatonic, emotionally numb, and unable to eat, but he eventually overcomes this with Rei’s help
-After overcoming his grief and bonding with his father, Shinji matured and became more sympathetic toward those around him, which culminated in him rewriting the universe to improve everyone’s lives
Weapons and Equipment:
Plugsuit-01:
-A form-fitting blue body suit that, when combined with the Interface Headset, grants Shinji better synchronization with his Eva
-Lets its user withstand extremely temperatures, as Shinji was able to open a superheated entry plug without burning his hands
Evangelion Unit-01:
-Also called Evangelion Test Type-01
-Said to be the ultimate multipurpose decisive combat weapons system created by man
-Is covered in metal, armor-like bindings to suppress its full power
-Houses the soul of Shinji’s mother, Yui, who can independently control the Eva to protect Shinji from harm
-Her soul can even eject Shinji from Unit-01 to protect him
-While piloting it, Shinji is surrounded in LCL, an amber liquid that mentally links his nervous system with Unit-01’s
-Is equipped with electrically-powered Umbilical Cables, which connect it to external power sources
-If these cables are severed, Unit-01 can continue fighting via its internal battery, albeit for a short time
-Possesses a minor healing factor, allowing it to regenerate from having its arm snapped
A.T Field:
-Short for “Absolute Terror Field,” it’s a barrier that Evas and Angels can manifest to protect themselves
-Are normally invisible, though collisions with other objects or people will expose its true form of orange, octagonal waves
-Vary in strength depending on the pilot’s synchronization with the Eva
-Is unable to be pierced by man made weapons
-Becomes stronger as Unit-01 evolves
PKN-01C Progression Knife:
-A massive jackknife stored in Unit-01’s left shoulder pylon
-Can be creased for safer storage
Gatling Gun:
-Also called the EM-226 Evangelion Portable Revolving Multi-Barrel Machine Gun or EM-226 440mm Gatling Gun
-Has a caliber of 440mm
-Its shells are large enough to crush cars
-Used while fighting Shamshiel
Positron Cannon:
-An advanced prototype rifle powered by high voltage superconductor transformers
-Fires a massive laser capable of reaching thousands of feet
-Thanks to Earth’s rotation, magnetic field, and gravity, the rifle can’t fire straight shots
-Due to the high levels of energy needed to power it, Shinji can’t change his firing position
Plugsuit-13:
-A black and blue variant of the plugsuit given to Shinji when he copiloted Evangelion 13
Evangelion 13:
-An Eva Unit piloted by both Shinji and Kaworu for the purpose of undoing the Near Third Impact
-Is utterly massive and eclipses all other Evas in size
-Unlike other Evas, 13 lacks any batteries or cables and seems to have independent power
-Under most circumstances it requires the use of 2 pilots, but its control system allows for a single pilot to take control
-Lacks an AT Field and instead uses RS Hoppers, jellyfish-like drones that emulate AT Fields for defense and disintegrate oncoming projectiles
-It can also fire these emulations to attack others, with the blasts being strong enough to stagger Unit-02
-Should the RS Hoppers be damaged, they’ll explode and knock their attacker back
-Has two additional arms locked across its chest, which can be released to give it a strength boost
Lance of Longinus:
-An extraterrestrial artifact created by the ancient progenitors of life
Lance of Cassius:
-Also called the spear of hope
-An evolved form of the Lance of Longinus obtained when Shinji reclaimed it from his father
Lance of Gaius:
-Also called the Spear of WILLE
-A formless, shapeshifting spear created from the remains of the battleship AAA Wunder
-Has no definitive size or shape, letting it range from small enough to fit in Shinji’s palm to large enough to fit in Unit-01’s
-Has the power to remake the entire universe and erase specific beings from existence
Forms:
The following are exclusive to Unit-01:
Berserker Mode:
-A state Unit-01 can assume when its power is completely drained and/or Shinji is mortally wounded or compromised
-During this time, Yui’s soul takes full control of Unit-01, turning it violent and mindless
Pseudo Evolution: “Initial Arousal Phase”:
-The result of Unit-01 unleashing its innate powers and transcending its physical limits
-Originally obtained by Shinji’s desperation to save Rei
-Signified by the appearance of a halo and its eyes, mouth, and luminescent armor glowing red
-In this state, Unit-01 gains a wider range of abilities
-The AT Field’s defensive abilities are greatly enhanced, and it can even be used for offensive purposes like creating complex constructs and energy blasts
-Its healing factor is boosted to the point of letting it instantly regenerate lost limbs
-It gains the ability to fire eye beams capable of knocking back Angels even with their AT Fields
-While in this state, Shinji begins transforming into a being of pure energy
Pseudo Evolution: “Radiant Giant”:
-The result of Unit-01 absorbing Zeruel’s core and merging with Rei
-Transforms Unit-01 into a being of pure energy
The following are exclusive to Evangelion 13:
Awakened State: “Giant of Light”
-The result of Eva 13 awakening its full power
-Transforms Eva 13 into a glowing white being of pure energy with crystalline wings and two halos
Weaknesses:
-When synchronized with Unit-01 or Eva 13, Shinji feels the pain of any injury it sustains, and if the damage is severe enough, he’ll die of shock
-Without the Umbilical Cables, Unit-01 can only fight for 5 minutes before its backup batteries are completely drained
-This is rendered moot by its transformations
-Shinji is unable to control Unit-01 in Berserker Mode
