You Must (Not) Run Away Guest Reviews


The World He Ran From


edCOM02's questions


1). Shinji Ikari becoming a new superhero by using Unit-13 as well as having a codename.
No. He won't technically be a superhero, just an agent of SHIELD. We won't see Unit-13 all the time in the story due to Shinji not needing it except during huge emergencies. Since Shinji will be working in an intelligence organization that has agents that specialize in espionage (spies), he will get a codename.

2). Would the Marvel Superheroes and SHIELD see him as a threat or something special?
After Chapter 2 and 3, the people with the knowledge of Shinji's existence will be cautious of him. While Nick Fury will give him a place in the world as well as personal freedom, a short leash will be on Shinji, but until something bad happens, it would just be surveillance.

3). And what about the other Evangelion characters, will any of them have a big role in story?
Until later on in the story, they will most likely be visions from Shinji except for the Rei from when Shinji woke up in Chapter 2, that's a Quantum Rei (aka one of the Reis that appears in the beginning of Episode One of Neon Genesis and 1.0 and at the ending of End of Evangelion).


coldblue's questions


1). What do you think of these powers for Shinji Ikari in "You Must (Not) Run Away"?

Telepathic link/bond with Eva Unit 13 to Command on Whim.
This is something that will be introduce during a plot point of the story.

A.T Field to protect his body/being.
Chapter 3 provided the answer.

Regeneration of Limbs and Major Organs.
Classified.

Enhanced Human Body to make him Super Human.
He will be above human levels of both body and mind.

Energy Projection
Classified.

Core on his Chest/Body to show he DIFFERENT/Hybrid Human Angel.
Actually, a core is more of a power source for Angels and Evas. It more like a soul.

2). Would Shinji Ikari briefly return to from "Evangelion" Universe?
I'm not going to into details about what going to happen at that time. I'm just going to say that what going to happen is multiverse shaking.

3). Will "You Must (Not) Run Away", show Shinji Ikari training as a SHEILD Agent and Time Skip to Shinji Ikari being a SHIELD Agent?
I can say that Shinji is going to receive training in marksmanship, CQC, espionage, and intelligence gathering as well some mastery with his A.T. Field after the timeskip. Besides his A.T. Field which he use it defensively, his best skill is ability in using a combat knife (I feel it would be more appropriate due to it being the weapon Shinji is more associated with in Neon Genesis is the Progressive Knife.)

4) Will Evangelion Unit 13 fight Galactus or GOD-LIKE "Marvel" Characters?
Nope, I doubt that Eva Unit 13 can fight Galactus. Galactus's heralds maybe, but not Galactus himself. The guy can discharge some of his energy and end up destroying three solar systems. A weakened Galactus maybe, but not normal Galactus. There are some beings that are more powerful than Galactus and some of them are omnipotence.


The World He Ran To


coldblue's questions


1). Will Shinji Ikari have an Angel Core?
No, because it really isn't needed. Like I said above, a core is more of a soul for Angels and Evas, although it been said that the Evas' core is the origin of their A.T. Field. In Neon Genesis, Karowu said that every living being posses an A.T. Field, with the reason that humans can't bring them out is because their souls posses the Fruit of Knowledge, giving them intelligence, while Angels's souls posses the Fruit of Life, giving them immense power for their A.T. Field. While this concept may or may not exist, in 3.0, Karowu did admit that he was an angel after turning from the 1st Angel to the 13th Angel, yet he didn't have a core. If he did, he would have regenerated, but he died getting his head exploded like any human being would.

2). Will their be a Time Skip for Shinji Ikari to train under SHIELD, his Powers, and EVA Unit 13?
Like is your third question of the first chapter, yes, but I'm not going into details with EVA 13.

3). Will Tony Stark, Reed Richards, or any TOP Scientist NEVER figure out what Shinji Ikari Abilities are? Will they discover that EVA Unit 13 shares 98% DNA similar to humans?
Chapter 3 will provide your answers.


1337- Respond to Captain America being a role model to Shinji
Cap is definitely a guy that could inspire Shinji to do what's right, but not the guy to help Shinji to get up. While Cap and Shinji are guys that were the little guys pushed to the ground, Steve Rogers do the right thing time after time for selfless reasons while Shinji sometimes do the right thing for, at best, misguided reasons. For example, Shinji getting into Eva 01 that Rei couldn't due to her being injured. While Shinji did do the right thing on not letting Rei fight, the reason he did could be because he feels that every life is worth more than own, as a result of his lack of self worth. And there is also the reason why he kept piloting Eva during the second movie. It wasn't because he wanted to protect humanity, it was because he wanted to earn his father's praise. While Shinji will respect the hell out of Cap, you could say if Shinji met a man like Steve, it could make Shinji feel smaller due to the fact that a man like Cap exist while Shinji is the way he is. Still, Captain America could be a good adult figure that Shinji could trust.


Just A Child


coldblue's questions


1). Did the SHIELD scientist or HYDRA Spies/Agents fail to notice that Shinji Ikari had powers? Could they not detect a Mutant, Meta-Human, Alien, Magical or evolved DNA?
It more like Shinji had just awakened. Until his A.T. Field activated, Shinji was completely human. This will be explained later.

2). Will EVA Unit 13 awaken to save Shinji Ikari in danger because of their connection they have?
Eva Unit 13 is completely shut down, so it won't Shinji any time soon.

3). Will Shinji Ikari next powers show Healing/Regeneration and Generating Energy?
Classified.


I'll try to update You Must (Not) Run Away in about a week if no other priorities distract me.
