subject: Watch Evangelion: 2.0 You Can (not) Advance Online Free Movie Part 5 [print this page] There's a new Eva pilot, a girl named Mari, and she's in the West Bank of Israel, fighting against the third angel. It's a tough battle. She ejects just in time to save herself. Her Eva, the provisional unit 05, is toast. Meanwhile, Shinji is starting to adjust to his new life in Tokyo III. Things between he and his father are starting to warm up a bit. He's started cooking (a necessity, given Misato's slovenly ways), and is becoming friendlier with Rei, who seems quietly frustrated by the fact that she can't live a normal life. Asuka arrives and starts being a jerk to everyone. Kaji takes the kids on a field trip to a laboratory where animals of pre-Second Impact Earth still live in a controlled environment. And the Eighth Angel attacks, allowing the three pilots to gang up on a single angel for the first time. And then, as Asuka tests out the new Eva Unit 03, something really really bad happens: an Angel spawns WITHIN the Eva. The only way to stop this new destructive monster is to destroy the Eva itself, and possibly Asuka along with it. It's up to Shinji to do it, and his father will not take "no" for an answer.
Shinji is laying in bed, listening to his SDAT walkman again. It's a familiar scene, but it doesn't play today the way it did in 1995. DAT was a high-tech digital cassette that had audio geeks excited back then, but in today's world of iPods it seems laughable and quaint. As always, Shinji blankly stares off into space as he shuffles between tracks 25 and 26 again and again. Then, something unexpected happens, and he drops it. As it skids across the floor, something that we've never seen before happens: the player skips to track 27.
There have been changes up to this point, of course.
