SPOILER: Show

1

Asuka: I can't believe it!

(Now she would be living with a boy.)

Asuka: Jeez, really!

Asuka: If he comes in on me, then what?

Shinji: Asuka! We're going to be late!

Asuka: (Would that idiot even have the courage...?)

Asuka: If you're that worried about being late, then go on ahead by yourself!



2

Asuka: (If he comes in on me...)

Shinji: Hurry! Hurry!

Asuka: *giggle*

Asuka: (If it were Kaji-san coming in, I wouldn't mind at all.

Then there would be love and romance.

Then I would make a lovely bride.

And then -)



3

Asuka: Understand!? This is the wall of Jericho!!

Asuka: One step beyond and you will be sentenced to death!!

Shinji: O-okay...

(A wall.)

Asuka: (See, he won't come across.

As I thought, he doesn't have the courage.)



4

(If it was Kaji-san...)



5

(Mama...)

Asuka: Let's kiss.

Asuka: Or are you scared?

Shinji: I'm not scared! Not of a kiss...

Asuka: You washed your teeth, right?

(Sorry. It's not for children.)

(Lend me that. The lavender perfume.)



6

(It's not for children.)

I'm not a child.

Asuka: What was that! You brat!



7

Asuka: (Someone like you just doesn't understand.)

Asuka: (Kaji-san...)

Shinji: Ah, Kaji-san!

Asuka: Eh? Kaji-san!?

Kaji: Hey! Could you lend me a bit of a hand?

Misato: *groaning*

Kaji: Well, I'll be heading off.

Asuka: How about staying over, Kaji-san!?

Kaji: I'd get laughed at if I went into work like this.

Asuka: Eh? It'll be fine!

Asuka: Kaji-san!



8

Kaji: Ha ha. See you.

Asuka: (He smells like lavender.)

(It's not for children.)

Asuka: (I'm not a child.)

(I'm not a child.)

Asuka: Kaji-san.



9

Kaji: Asuka. What's up? You look grim.

Kaji: Did you get into a fight with Katsuragi?

Asuka: I want you to hold me.

Kaji: ...

Kaji: Ha ha. You're a bit spoiled, Asuka.

Kaji: You're too old to be carried now...

Asuka: DON'T YOU TREAT ME LIKE A CHILD!!



10

Asuka: Look...

Kaji: Asuka...

Asuka. It's fine. With Kaji-san, I...

(If you hold me, I

Yes, I could even give up piloting Eva

That much

I)

Kaji: No...



11

Kaji: You have to have a little more respect for yourself.

Kaji: You're a very attractive girl, but... right.

Kaji: It's a bit too early...

Asuka: ...then when - ?

Asuka: (It has to be now.)

Kaji: One day.

Asuka: (It has to be now...)



12

(You okay?)

(I'm fine, I'm fine.

Even if Kaji wouldn't hold me

Even if he didn't need me

If I can pilot Eva)

Asuka: Like I even want to have children!

Asuka: The only one they need is Shinji!

(Then everyone...)

(I'm fine.)



13

Misato: What's the analysis of that light ray!?

Hyuga: It's similar to an A.T. Field, but details are unknown!

Asuka: My... DON'T COME INSIDE OF ME!!



14

(Asuka-chan.)

(It's fine. I won't cry.)

(Why am I crying? I already decided I wouldn't cry any more.)

(I'm not a child!!)

(I don't need stuffed animals!!)

(I'm gonna grow up quickly.)

(I'm not a child)

(So look at me!!)

(Don't kill me!!)

Asuka: Don't look into my mind!!

(Don't stop being my mother)

Asuka: YOU WON'T EVEN HOLD ME!!

(Asuka-chan.)

Asuka: (Defiled... my mind has been...)



15

Asuka: (Kaji-san...what will I do? I've been defiled...)

(I wanted you to hold me.

With arms strong enough to break through this wall

and embrace the heart I don't reveal to anyone - )



"Bridal Veil" is a short piece by Nobi Nobita published as part of the doujin Zettai Anzen Kamisori (Absolute Safety Razor) in late April 1996. In his August JUNE interview with Nobita (p. 35 of the Kaworu "mook"), Anno mentions that both he and Sadamoto had felt that Nobita's depiction of Asuka in Zettai was impossible for them to match. In her comments on Zettai in the anthology Hakobune no Karasu (The Raven of the Ark), published August 1997, Nobita writes that Anno had been very keen on "Bridal Veil," to the point of telling her he had got some idea or ideas from it, though Nobita then said she was not sure what those ideas were."Bridal Veil" is, like most of Nobita's other Eva works, a kind of supplement to the original series, inserting scenes in between, or elaborating upon, episodes and events in the show. "Bridal Veil" shows a series of interactions between Asuka and other characters before depicting part of her encounter with the Fifteenth Angel.Translation:The main elements Anno took from Veil appear to be:1. The idea that Asuka, at some point, attempted to seduce Kaji by revealing herself to him, insisting that she was not a child. This scene from "Veil" was adapted not only by Anno but also by Sadamoto in the manga. This scene first appears in Death.2. The idea that Asuka, in establishing the "Wall of Jericho," was secretly hoping or inviting Shinji to break it. Nobita shows, as Anno later would, that behind the door Asuka's intention was quite different than her outward actions had made it seem.3. Finally, Asuka's somewhat mysterious line in 22 DC "Dakishimete mo kurenai kuse ni!!" is taken verbaitim from the climax of "Veil" (down to the same number of exclamation marks in the script).
