Chapter 486 The most miserable male protagonist's bond and repeating his father's mistakes (original)
After watching this episode, the audience really felt sorry for the male protagonist Shinji Ikari.

But... suddenly I thought that this is the male protagonist of Lin Qingshan's work, so isn't it normal for him to be miserable?
But in comparison, Shinji Ikari's character is different from the miserable male protagonists in Lin Qingshan's previous works.

Because there are characters like David, the protagonist of "Edgewalker", Agni, the protagonist of "Fist of Fire", Denji, the protagonist of "Chainsaw Man", and Li Huowang, the protagonist of "Tao Weird Immortal", and so on.

Their tragedy is the loss of their loved ones and friends, the hard struggles and setbacks they have encountered, and the shaking of their own beliefs.

But the relatives and friends around them are all supporting them. After all, they will always have friends and relatives who support them.

Lucy, Mann and Rebecca to David, Luna, Ligata and Yoda to Agni, Pochita, Hayakawa Aki, Pava and Kishibe to Denji, Li Huowang's companions and his parents and girlfriend in another world...

They all support the male protagonists and love them immensely.

But what about Shinji Ikari?

It is obvious that his father now treats him as a tool. In times of crisis, he would rather let him fight than let Rei Ayanami fight.

He didn't have many friends other than Ritsuko and Misato. He also counted Suzuhara and Kensuke, whom he met later.

But it was obvious that Ritsuko also treated him as a tool, and Misato also revealed that she also treated him as a tool at the beginning.

At present, Shinji Ikari's mother has not appeared, so it is very likely that she is dead.

Now, due to the favoritism of his father Ikari Gendō, he was sent to fight the Fifth Angel. As soon as he appeared on the scene, he didn't even have time to dodge when the machine's abdomen was pierced. Half of him felt the pain and was obviously seriously injured and fell into a coma.

After all, when the pain is most severe, it can indeed cause shock or even death.

This is really...too miserable!

Audiences and netizens all thought so, and they complained about this episode in various places after watching it.

"I thought that the likes of Brother Huo and Kaneki were the most miserable male protagonists, but I didn't expect there are other masters!"

"How can there be a protagonist who is so miserable? His uncle doesn't love him, his grandma doesn't love him, he doesn't have many friends, and his father treats him as a tool."

"No matter what, Brother Hiko still has his family, and no matter what, Kaneki still has his friends at the Antique Cafe, and Shinji Ikari... It feels like Misato is really my only friend!"

"You forgot that Kaneki's parents loved him too, but they left when he was a child."

"The old thief Qingshan really took torture to a new level. I thought Brother Huozi had suffered enough after watching "The Tao of Strange Immortals", but Brother Huozi still has family and friends!"

"If I were Ikari Shinji, I would really think it would be better to just commit suicide. I wouldn't get any love anyway."

"We need to arrange a psychiatrist for Shinji Ikari, otherwise I really think he will commit suicide sooner or later."

"This father is really a beast. He wouldn't really abandon his own son just to enjoy the tenderness of young girls."

"That's right, what Ikari Shinji said is absolutely right. On the contrary, Ayanami Rei slapped someone indiscriminately, which is really depressing!"

"A girl who is a lower class! You don't really have an Oedipus complex, do you really like Ikari Gendou?"

"This is really bad, and they are really bastards!"

"Don't be impatient... I don't think it's that simple. What if there's a big plot later? What if Ikari Gendou's indifference to the protagonist is because he made a mistake and killed his mother?"

"They look a bit similar. Is this probably how the protagonist's inferiority complex was formed?"

"I think it's unlikely. If the protagonist really killed his mother, he should feel guilty when facing Ikari Gendo, and he wouldn't say something like 'a father like him' to Ayanami Rei."

"Don't be so futile. I think Ikari Gendō is a beast and Ayanami Rei is a perverted woman. I'll talk about it later when they slap him in the face."

"Stop talking. I just feel bad for Ikari Shinji now."

……

The miserable situation of Shinji Ikari as the protagonist also makes "Neon Genesis Evangelion" more popular.

The main thing is that Neon Genesis Evangelion does still have a lot of puzzles at this point.

Everyone is very keen on uncovering the answer to see if they have guessed it correctly.

What exactly are the apostles?
What is the relationship between Unit-01 and Unit-00, the biological weapons known as EVA, and the Angels?
There must be a connection, otherwise why would the apostles keep rushing to this city where Unit-01 and Unit-00 are located?

But what is the relationship?
What happened between Ikari Shinji and Ikari Gendo in the past?
Is the relationship between Gendo Ikari and Rei Ayanami the kind that is shameful?

What is the Human Completion Project mentioned earlier?
In short, "Neon Genesis Evangelion" still has too many interesting puzzles at the moment, constantly tempting the audience to continue watching.

In the second week, "Neon Genesis Evangelion" was updated with the sixth episode.

Zhou Wenwei and his girlfriend Ke Xinjie couldn't wait to watch the sixth episode, after all, they didn't have to go to work the next day.

Moreover, the last time, the fifth episode of "Neon Genesis Evangelion" was stuck at the part where Shinji Ikari was seriously injured, and the plot was so interrupted that it was almost unbearable.

What happened to Shinji Ikari?
Should we continue fighting?
Or is it because of this that they were finally forced to let Rei Ayanami pilot Unit-0 into battle?

“Updated, updated!”

When Zhou Wenwei saw that it was past twelve o'clock, he said excitedly, "I finally waited for this episode."

"Yeah, I think the waiting is a bit tiring."

Ke Xinjie also chimed in and complained, "I just want to know what happens next."

After clicking to play the sixth episode of "Neon Genesis Evangelion", the opening credits will be automatically skipped.

Then we saw that Shinji Ikari had indeed fallen into a coma and even went into shock.

Misato and Ritsuko at NERV headquarters immediately ordered the recovery of Unit-01 and the rescue of Shinji Ikari.

Among the group of people, Misato seemed particularly concerned about Shinji Ikari's safety, and even went to the front in person to see Shinji Ikari's current condition.

This also made the audience feel a little more comfortable.

Otherwise, the male protagonist Shinji Ikari would appear too miserable, which would make the audience who put themselves in the male protagonist's perspective feel uncomfortable.

"It's time for Rei Ayanami to go into battle, right? After all, Shinji Ikari is already seriously injured."

Zhou Wenwei said confidently at this time, "There is no reason not to let Rei Ayanami fight now, right?"

however……

What happened next was indeed that Unit 00 still could not be deployed for battle.

Unit-00 was indeed a machine that failed to be put into actual combat.

This really makes people dumbfounded.

At this critical juncture, no matter whether it can be put into actual combat, it has to be put into practice directly.

Someone like Ikari Shinji who had no training at all could do it, so why can't someone like Ayanami Rei who is well-trained do it?
In particular, the fifth angel actually extended a huge drill, intending to drill directly into the city to attack the NERV headquarters.

At this critical moment, we really have no choice but to take action.

However, NERV headquarters unanimously refused to let Rei Ayanami pilot Unit-0 into battle.

In the end, Misato and other NERV headquarters staff had to find a solution. They first used a balloon that looked very similar to Unit-01 and various weapons to experiment and figure out the fighting style of the Fifth Angel.

Then they came up with the idea of ​​using the EVA's dedicated positron cannon to attack the Fifth Angel from a very long distance.

However, this positron cannon is still in the testing phase and is not yet used by NERV headquarters.

However, Misato directly requisitioned the positron cannon, which was still in the experimental stage, in the name of NERV headquarters.

The researchers were puzzled and said, "But according to calculations, the energy required to completely penetrate and disintegrate the AT force field is at least 180 billion kilowatts, which is equivalent to one-third of the annual electricity consumption of New York City. Where do you get such a huge amount of electricity?"①
180 billion kilowatts?
This is one-third of New York City's electricity consumption in an entire year, or all of the metropolitan area's electricity consumption for four months.

This number is indeed a bit scary.

But in order to defeat the Fifth Angel...

Miri directly chose to mobilize the country's electricity, causing a temporary power outage across the country for one day!
With advance notice, some important places like hospitals and the military activated their backup power supplies to get by temporarily.

This will temporarily supply the positron cannon and NERV headquarters for operations.

Of course, everyone has no objection to this point. The greatest advantage of the Republic is that it is very united at critical moments.

At this time, Shinji Ikari also woke up. Therefore, this battle plan has a greater chance of success.

After all, if Shinji Ikari could pilot Unit-01 and operate the positron cannon at the critical moment, pure remote control would definitely be better.

only……

Misato is worried that after what happened to Shinji Ikari, he might still be willing to fly Unit-01 into battle again.

At this time, Rei Ayanami came to Shinji Ikari who had already awakened, and asked him to drive the machine into battle together.

"Don't go. I'm treating you as a tool again, silly child."

Zhou Wenwei was furious and said directly to Ikari Shinji on TV, "You have already fulfilled your duties. You can just rest and recuperate this time. Why take this risk?"

In the animation, Shinji Ikari was indeed very scared after being seriously injured and did not want to take the risk of driving Unit-01 into battle again.

However, Rei Ayanami said, "I will be the one to pilot Unit-01 this time. Dr. Mu is already rewriting Unit-01's personal data."

Then she left without waiting for Shinji Ikari to reply.

"He is still a human being. He didn't let the protagonist take the blame."

Zhou Wenwei immediately nodded with satisfaction and said.

"Yeah, it's really too tragic that the protagonist is finally not allowed to continue."

Ke Xinjie said, "If someone suffers from post-traumatic stress afterwards, it will be even more miserable."

however……

But on the day of the battle, everything changed.

"Now announce the arrangements for this operation."

Misato said to Shinji Ikari and Rei Ayanami behind her, "Shinji! Pilot Unit-01 as the gunner! Rei will pilot Unit-00 and be in charge of defense!"

"This is because Shinji and Unit-01 have a high synchronization rate, and this operation requires a more precise operation."

"Positive electrons will not move in a straight line because they are affected by the Earth's rotation, magnetic field, and gravity. Don't forget to correct these errors! You must penetrate the core accurately!"

……

"what?!"

Zhou Wenwei felt his fists harden, and said, "What happened to the agreement that Rei Ayanami would pilot Unit-01? Now she's the male protagonist again?"

"So except for the male lead, no one else can come, right?"

Ke Xinjie couldn't help but complain.

After the animation finished telling the battle plan, Misato asked Shinji Ikari and Rei Ayanami to change into pilot suits and drive the EVA to prepare for battle.

While changing clothes, he faced Rei Ayanami who was changing clothes not far away, with only a curtain between them.

But Shinji Ikari didn't pay any attention.

He just said with some frustration, "This time... maybe I will die."

"Why do you say that?"

Rei Ayanami asked at this time.

This time it was Ikari Shinji who remained silent.

And this time, Rei Ayanami didn't completely ignore the conversation like she did before.

"You're not going to die."

Ayanami Rei suddenly said.

Ikari Shinji looked at her.

"I will protect you."

Rei Ayanami spoke in a calm tone but with a determination that she would not give up until she achieved her goal.

Then, in the cover of night, they are ready to enter the EVA and fight at any time.

At this time, Shinji Ikari looked at the dark night ahead and suddenly asked, "Rei, why... are you willing to drive the EVA?"

Rei Ayanami was silent for a while, lowered her head, then raised her head again and said -

"Because of the bond."

"Bond?"

"Yes, bond."

"The bond with my father?"

But Shinji Ikari misunderstood.

However, Rei Ayanami said, "The bond with everyone."

"You're so strong... Li."

Shinji Ikari said this with emotion.

However, Rei Ayanami said, "Besides this, I have nothing..."

"Besides that, nothing?"

Ikari Shinji repeated in great confusion.

Rei Ayanami didn't want to say anything more at this time. She stood up and said, "It's time."

So the two of them entered their respective EVA bodies and began to attack and fight!
Target...the fifth apostle!
In a tense and intense atmosphere, Shinji Ikari and Rei Ayanami started their first battle.

Shinji Ikari piloted Unit-01 and used the positron cannon to attack, while Rei Ayanami protected Unit-01 and Shinji Ikari with a super-electromagnetic coated armor shield.

But the first battle...

Shinji Ikari had never been trained in using the positron cannon, and the positron cannon was indeed very difficult to operate, so his first attack missed!

At this time, the second attack requires replacing the fuse and storing energy again.

But the fifth angel has already discovered Shinji Ikari and Unit-01.

Once again, it fired a destructive high-energy beam, with much better accuracy than Shinji Ikari and Unit-01.

Just when everyone thought that Shinji Ikari and Unit-01 were going to be seriously injured again.

But it was Unit 00 piloted by Rei Ayanami who stood up!
She directly held the super electromagnetic coated armor shield in front of Shinji Ikari and Unit-01!
However, this armor shield can only last for 17 seconds at most, and as the 17 seconds have passed, the second energy storage has not yet been completed.

Everyone at NERV headquarters was anxious!

Finally, when the energy was accumulated in an instant, Shinji Ikari shot directly and hit the fifth angel accurately!

The fifth apostle was completely pierced through and immediately fell from the sky like an angel with broken wings.

The high-energy beam also stopped immediately.

only……

Rei Ayanami and Unit 00 were already covered in wounds. The high-energy beam had severely damaged Unit 00's body, and its exterior had melted and burned red hot.

"Ayanami Rei!"

At this time, Shinji Ikari was the first person to think of Rei Ayanami!
He rushed over to Unit-01 and pulled out the plug of Unit-00, only to face the red-hot plug door...

Shinji Ikari subconsciously made the same move as Gendo Ikari had made before. He ignored the scalding hot cabin door and pried it open with his bare hands!
