You were baptized in blood and fire on the battlefield. You endured countless clashes of blade and sword, and were tempered through endless battles against injustice, forging a will and conviction as unyielding as steel.
You have seen a devoted lover deceived by the person they cherished, a madman who sacrificed himself for justice only to be reviled by the world, a leader betrayed and abandoned by the very people he protected, and an idealist on the brink of death who still clung desperately to his beliefs.
Oppression, exploitation, conspiracy, betrayal, lies, madness, despair, death. With their eyes clouded, people raced to slaughter one another, driven by rumors spread with malicious intent.
The people are livestock, the powerful are demons, and the world is a prison.
After witnessing with your own eyes the pain and suffering that permeate this despairing land of Terra...
Shinji Ikari, what choice will you make?
Will you flee like a beaten dog?
Or will you fight these forces of darkness to the bitter end?
