Unluckily for Asuka, it is not over. Shinji's equally angry and frustrated reply makes it clear what has happened; he has realized that Kaji is dead and will not be coming back, and has tried to explain this to Asuka who is by now in obvious denial about that fact. Rather, Shinji wants things to be clear-cut and easy, and for people to simply exist to serve his needs, without him having to do anything for them himself or to actually earn their affection. Interestingly, Rei picks up on the fact Asuka is envious of Shinji attaining a higher synch score. Youre telling me that I lost to this puppy?
