(Pax Ikari vol IIIS) Shinji, during the Evangelion story, comes across a woman that has different ideas regarding his potential and his current living situation. While navigating the trials of standing on the cusp of adulthood, the fight against the Angels, and his first year in a public school, he will be forced to find his place in the broader universe.

When Shinji Ikari rides the train from Nagano to Tokyo-3, he is made the epicenter of a reality altering event. With the reality he had occupied now changed forever, he must conceive of a future that will accomodate diametrically opposed ethos. A man who has never known love is now responsible for the fate of the very humans he's been kept separate from, for good or ill.
