Episode 26: Take care of yourself.

Overview

As Instrumentality continues, Shinji feels he can disappear from existence because he is unwanted. Without piloting Eva, he is useless, without an identifier. Now in a world of nothingness, with no restrictions, he can do anything, but without others he has no identity. After a glimpse at one possible existence, he realizes the way the world is seen can change through different perceptions and that there could be value in living.
