2	[[caption-width-right:350:[[http://jimmywolk.studenten-froendenberg.de/eng/nge.php?2nd.survive "Shinji, you can't go everywhere and take care of every living thing," Asuka spoke seriously behind him as if she had read his mind. "You can't save everyone..."]]]]

6	* The revisiting of Asuka's infamous MindRape scene.
7	* Kaworu's death
8	-->'''Shinji''': I'm sorry...\
9	spoiler:'''Kaworu''': [[ObiWanMoment Don't be...]]
10	* After Shinji and Asuka have been in the past for a few days, Asuka asks Shinji to play their daughter's song on his cello.
11	-->'''Asuka''': Please... Please play her – ''her'' happy song! I need to hear it again!\
12	'''Shinji''': I'm sorry. I- I don't think I can. It is supposed to be a happy song after all. But now it wouldn't bring anyone happiness – '''because''' it was hers.\
13	'''Asuka''': It would ease '''my''' sadness! I have nothing else from her! I don't have photos of her, I don't have one of her drawings, I don't have Kiko, I- I don't have... sob Please. That song... that song is all there's left from her.\
14	'''Shinji''': I'm sorry.
15	* All the tearing up can be summed up in one word:
16	--> '''Aki''': "Mama...?"
17	** "Smile when you're happy. Cry when you're sad. [[TearsOfJoy And do both when you're happier than you've ever been]]."
18	* When Shinji and Misato try to stop Ritsuko from destroying the Dummy System, Rei unexpectedly shows up and picks up Ritsuko's remote. After explaining why her spare bodies [[NotEvenHuman cannot be considered as human beings]] due to their lack of a soul—and commenting somberly about how, unlike her, they are spared from the [[HumansAreFlawed burden of human emotion]]—she then proceeds to destroy them herself, to the surprise of everyone present.
19	-->'''Shinji''': Rei... What have you done?\
20	'''Rei''': I have...[[MercyKill set them free...]] ''sheds a SingleTear''
21	* When Shinji gets absorbed into his EVA in chapter 5:
22	--> And while the berserk monster slashed out at its opponent to kill it and to devour its remains, annexing a power that went beyond anything it possessed; while a young woman vomited and her colleagues just stared in shock; while two conspirators pondered about the consequences of this beginning and while another man just seemed to water his patch of melons in the distance, a teenage girl wept silently for a loss she couldn't even see, but could only feel in her heart.
23	* Rei III experiencing CloneAngst in chapter 9.
24	* While it doesn't stick, Shinji and Asuka have to see Misato go through the experience of Kaji dying.
