So the angels have returned. It’s rather sudden.
It’s the same as it was 15 years ago. That’s the way of disasters; they come without warning.
On the positive side, our previous investments would appear to be not such a waste after all.
You can't be sure about that yet. If it doesn't pay off, it's still a waste.
Correct. Now that news of the angels has become common knowledge, NERV must take steps to control the manner in which this information is received by the general public.
You may rest assured that it's already taken care of. Don't worry.
Well, we must acknowledge that.
But still I wonder Mr. Ikari. Were NERV and Eva used efficiently?
Repair costs for Unit 1 added to the development cost for Unit 0... are simply staggering.
We also understand that you gave that toy to your own son!
Time, money and manpower. How much more will be wasted by you and your family?
And that is not your only responsibility. The Human Enhancement Project. That should be your top priority.
Correct. Under these desperate circumstances that project may be the only real hope for the future of mankind. Do you understand?
In any event, the Angels are no excuse for the delay in the schedule of that project. We may consider adjusting the budget.
The rest of the meeting does not concern you.
Your presence here was... appreciated. [he along with the American, Russian, and British Seele member disappear]
Ikari, you do know that there can be no turning back. [he disappears too]
I know. Mankind has no time left.
An A17? You want to make an offensive attack!?
That is correct.
No! It's too dangerous. Have you forgotten what happened fifteen years ago.
No, but consider this: This is our chance to move from a state of perpetual defense to an offensive posture
The risks would be enormous.
However, I am sure that you must aware of how important it is to obtain a living angel as a sample, am I correct?
We will not tolerate failure! [he disappears with the other Seele members]
Failure. If we fail it will result in the extinction of the entire human race. ...Are we really going to do it commander?
