The second feature-length instalment based on Hideaki Annos giant robot TV anime. With Earth under constant attack from the invading Angels, NERV introduces two new pilots into the fray: the enigmatic Makinami Mari Illustrous (voice of Maaya Sakamoto) and Captain Asuka Langley Shikinami (Yuko Miyamura). As Shinji (Megumi Ogata) and his new comrades are thrown into action together, they soon realise that if they are to succeed and turn the tide in the war against the Angels, they must form a common bond and overcome their old loner ways.
