  • Dying Moment of Awesome: Kaworu spends his final moments explaining to a depressed Shinji in great detail how he really did Set Right What Once Went Wrong, revealing that his daughter is still alive, and giving Shinji encouragement that he, his wife, and their friends would be able to save the world, while at the same time implying that he was behind the whole Peggy Sue part of the plot in the first place and did it just to help give Aki a normal life. Damn, way to be a hero, man.
  • Freud Was Right: "You know, we've both been 'thrown out' by our mothers. Wonder how people would interpret that."
  • He's Just Hiding: Kaji. ...No, really!
  • Nightmare Fuel:
    • When Asuka faces Arael again, she's over her mommy issues. ...What Arael targets instead is a million times worse.
    • Gendo's fate, when you think about it.
    • Just in case you're wondering, it shows Aki dying all alone in the post apocalyptic world, while she yells at Asuka, saying that everything is her fault. Digging even deeper, the angel uses her memories of when she tried to abort the pregnancy, having Aki claim that Asuka never wanted her in the first place or that she just wanted to kill Aki herself (basically implying that Asuka ended up just as bad as, if not worse than her own mother post contact experiment).
  • The Woobie: Asuka, after returning to the past. Read Chapter 10. If you don't feel sorry for her, you might just be a soulless monster.
