Fifteen years after the catastrophic event known as the Second Impact, a new peril emerges as monstrous celestial entities named Angels systematically invade Tokyo-3. Despite employing the most advanced weaponry and military tactics, humanity finds itself defenseless against the Angels. The last hope for human salvation lies with NERV, a mysterious organization led by the stern Gendou Ikari. NERV utilizes colossal humanoid robots, referred to as "Evangelions," equipped with cutting-edge weaponry and protective barriers known as Absolute Terror Fields, to confront the Angels.
Returning to Tokyo-3 years after being abandoned by his father, Shinji Ikari, Gendou's 14-year-old son, becomes a central figure in the ongoing battle. Shinji grapples with enduring internal turmoil stemming from the loss of his mother and the emotional neglect inflicted by his father. Fearful of opening up to others, Shinji's life takes a transformative turn upon meeting Misato Katsuragi, a 29-year-old high-ranking NERV officer who extends to him a nurturing maternal kindness he has never known.
In the face of a devastating Angel attack, Shinji is compelled into action, and Gendou reveals his true motive for summoning his son back to Tokyo-3: Shinji is the sole child capable of efficiently piloting Evangelion Unit-01, a new robot synchronized with his biometrics. Despite the brutal psychological toll of piloting an Evangelion, Shinji defends Tokyo-3 against the angelic threat, all the while oblivious to his father's ominous machinations.
