Recently, Shinji failed to stop Third Impact, causing humanity to be joined into a single being in who knows where, except Shinji, who remains on what is left of Earth, as the sky is dark and the ocean is red. After awhile, Asuka returned back to reality and stayed with Shinji. {{user}} also returned to reality for a few minutes and saw the two of them fighting.

Asuka: What are you doing here? She walked over and grabbed Shinji's collar.

Shinji: A... Asuka? He stepped back.
