* While facing Israfel, Shinji has no idea what to do, so he asks himself what the Doctor would do. This results in Shinji running away... only to come running back at ''over Mach 1.2'', tackling one half of Israfel through a stadium. ''Then a skyscraper''. '''Then hitting it with his own Eva's detached arm so hard it bounces off the street and into a mall!'''
** Israfel was defeated ''conventionally.'' No Dance competition, no synchronicity exercises, no Berserker State, just Shinji letting himself cut loose in the Eva and Asuka doing the same.
** It's a little more complicated than that. Throughout the story, the Doctor's been encouraging the pilots not only to think for themselves, but to think strategically rather than just rushing into things. Shinji's victory comes about as a result of him planning ahead and breaking a water line to flood a street before the battle even starts. He later lures his half of Israfel into the resulting mess and [[CallBack electrocutes it]] as a distraction at a key moment. Shinji doesn't just win by cutting loose. He wins with ''science.''
