History Heartwarming / ReTake

* The final bit showing that Shinji and Asuka had a daughter. The wedding, them having a child, it all came to pass. They lived HappilyEverAfter.

* The wedding itself finally happening and later seeing Shinji and Asuka married with a child. At long last, they have found their peace and happiness. They have found their HappyEverAfter.

* "[[spoiler:Rei, look after the idiot for me]]" Overlaps ''heavily'' with TearJerker.

* The picture at the top of the [[Heartwarming/FanWorks heartwarming fan woks page]], showing that despite everything, Shinji and Asuka have finally come to fully accept each other. Might border on TearJerker if you are part of the camp that believes [[spoiler: [[TogetherInDeath that they are dead]].]] Or the fact that Shinji/[[spoiler:Ghost-Shinji]] willingly gave up his dream, so Ghost-Asuka wouldn't be alone.

* A younger Asuka and canon!Shinji passing out wedding invitations. Shinji encounters his father and urges him to attend the wedding ceremony. Gendo says it's all just a foolish game and Shinji replies while it is game, if they weren't in love they wouldn't be marrying. Gendo coldly walks away telling him he has a meeting in Matsushiro that will keep him from attending, barring sudden change of plans. He then reveals to Shinji that he's sending Fuyutsuki in his place. In a doubly [[Funny/ReTake funny moment]], when Shinji scrambles to give his father an invitation, Gendo shows Asuka already gave him one. He tells Shinji to take care of himself. It makes what happens later incredibly cruel.

* Ritsuko's conversation with Shinji at the end sheds light into the final moments of [[Manipulative Bastard Gendo Ikari]]. While he was without a doubt a monster, in the end he tried to act as a father one last time. This is highlighted with the Positron Cannon access password, which Gendo gave Ritsuko shortly before dying: FUTURE.

* Ghost-Asuka's converstation with God, and where that leads... and finally, from the final volume... well, actually, it is [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGNXiDu3fDE better expressed by video]]. Especially the last couple of minutes, when the soundtrack changes. You'll know the part I'm talking about. Pity the video creator had to write such an overblown introduction, but otherwise, meh.
