		+	'''Sachiel''' is the third [[Angel]], and the first to attack [[Tokyo 3]].

	==Overview==		==Overview==
-	Sachiel is the third Angel, and the first to attack Tokyo 3. This angel takes the form of a towering humanoid with leathery black skin. On each of its outer thighs there are 3 boney rib like structures that are early on revealed to be gills; on its chest lies its core held in place by more boney rib-like structures. On its shoulders, Sachiel has thick bone plates that offer it a good deal of protection; its head appears as a pale bone circle with a long slender, almost beak-like, protrusion pointing downward, with two small black eyes. the angels arms are rather long reaching past its knees, and end in three sharp segmented talons at the end of each hand.	+	This angel takes the form of a towering humanoid with leathery black skin.

	==Armaments==		==Armaments==
-	Sachiel, for an Angel, offers rather limited offensive and defensive capabilities, its main offensive weapon is the beam attack, which several other angels have been known to have. Sachiel's beam attack is probably the weakest of all the other angels; as demonstrated by Ramiel's and Zeruel's attacks. Sachiel's second offensive weapon is the lance that resides in both of its forearms, the ends of which one can see protruding from its elbows, it uses these lances to grasp and skewer its targets in melee combat. it demonstrates this ability in episode 2 of Evangelion where Sachiel picks up the fallen Eva unit one and uses its lance, imbued with some form of energy, to hammer through the Evas head armor; destroying the right eye and severely damaging the head.	+	Sachiel, for an Angel, offers rather limited offensive and defensive capabilities, its main offensive weapon is the beam attack, which several other angels have been known to have.

-	Sachiel's defensive capabilities are completely standard to all other angels, the first being the Absolute terror Field or A.T. Field. The A.T. Field acts as a kind of shield that is completely impenetrable to conventional weapons, the only known ways of penetrating a A.T. Field are a highly charged positronic beam, the lance of Longinus, and another A.T. Field.	+	Sachiel's defensive capabilities are completely standard to all other angels, the first being the Absolute Terror Field or [[A.T. Field]]. The A.T.

-	Created in the Third Annex of Gehirn's Artificial Evolution Laboratory in Hakone from 2003 to 2004 and deemed a functional Eva unit in 2014, Unit 01[5] is piloted by Shinji Ikari (with Rei or a Rei Dummy Plug as backup pilots), and has the best battle record of all the Evangelions. It frequently acts independently (the "berserker" mode), without the instructions of a pilot and without any apparent power source. The Eva will also take action to protect its pilot while sometimes servicing other interests. The Eva's resident soul, Yui Ikari (Shinji's mother), appears to be responsible for such events. Unit 01 is called the "Test Type," perhaps because of the experimental way in which it was created: although Unit 01 seems to be an Adam-derived cybernetic organism like all other Evangelions, it is the sole Eva to have been born from Lilith.	+	Created in the Third Annex of [[Gehirn]]'s Artificial Evolution Laboratory in Hakone from 2003 to 2004 and deemed a functional Eva unit in 2014, Unit 01 is piloted by [[Shinji Ikari]] (with [[Rei Ayanami]] or a Rei [[dummy plug]] as backup pilots), and has the best battle record of all the Evangelions.

-	Upon savagely disfiguring the fourteenth angel, Zeruel, it proceeded to devour the Angel and assimilated its S² Engine, making Unit 01 the first physically complete Evangelion prior to the construction of the Mass Production units. The S² Engine seems to be used only at Unit 01's discretion; after acquiring it, the Eva is still sent into battle with an umbilical cable. Just before Unit 01 absorbed the S² Engine, it used one of Zeruel's arms to regenerate its severed left arm, demonstrating the Angelic ability of regeneration. The Mass Production models were also equipped with Nerv-developed S² Engines but it is a common misconception that they also have the ability to regenerate (see entry below).	+	Upon savagely disfiguring the fourteenth [[Angel]], [[Zeruel]], it proceeded to devour the Angel and assimilated its [[S² Engine]], making Unit 01 the first physically complete Evangelion prior to the construction of the Mass Production units.

	Unit 01's armor is primarily purple; some components are colored neon green, light blue, orange, and black. The helmet, with its prominent horn and "frill," is vaguely evocative of a ceratopsid dinosaur. The pectoral plates are different from those seen on any other Eva. The humanoid entity beneath the armor has light brown skin, two emerald-green eyes, four small nostrils positioned preorbitally, and red blood.

-		+	The Absolute Terror Field or AT field for short is a barrier that the [[Angel]]s can generate to protect themselves. AT fields typically take the shape of an octagon or a hexagon and are usually orange in color. In some cases, AT fields have appeared in other colors and hues, such as a pastel purple, or red. Not much is known about these barriers, although, according to [[Kaworu Nagisa]] the AT fields are the barriers that protect your space and give you form. This statement is repeated in ''[[The End of Evangelion]]''. It is also believed that these barriers can be projected by any being that has a [[soul]]. The strength of AT fields produced varies between angels, for example the angels [[Zeruel]] and [[Ramiel]] posses extremely powerful AT fields while [[Matariel]]'s AT field was very weak. The strength of Evangelion units' AT fields depends upon the synchronization level of the pilot, and the strength setting used at the time. Eva pilots can control the strength of the AT field from their [[entry plug]].

		+	Yui's background is not covered in the series, but according to information provided in the ''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neon_Genesis_Evangelion_2 Neon Genesis Evangelion 2]'' PS2 game, she is the daughter of an influential member of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neon_Genesis_Evangelion_glossary#Seele Seele], which explains why she had the backing of this powerful organization. However, the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canon_%28fiction%29 canonocity] of this has never been officially stated.
		+
		+	== Impact on other characters ==
		+	Despite her limited appearances, Yui is one of the most important characters in the series. Gendo's love for her is his entire motivation for going through with Seele's Instrumentality Project. He misses her so longingly that he goes through with Seele's plan in the hopes that, after Third Impact, he would be able to be one with Yui again.
		+
		+	Shinji is equally affected by his mother's absence, as that and Gendo's subsequent abandonment of him is a massive trauma that he has carried his entire life and is what has led to his avoidant, non-confrontational nature. At the same time, her maternal protectiveness of Shinji as the soul of Unit 01 is solely responsible for the Eva being the formidable fighter it is.
		+
		+	Although Fuyutsuki was never more than a mentor and friend to Yui, it is strongly implied that he was in love with her to some degree, as he was shocked to learn that she was marrying Gendo (whom he disliked at the time); also, in ''The End of Evangelion'' Lilith/Rei takes the form of Yui to achieve Fuyutsuki's Instrumentality.
		+
		+	== Rebuild of Evangelion ==
		+	Yui makes a cameo appearance in the 2nd Rebuild film. Rei is eating with Gendo and asks him if she could set up a dinner party where together they could eat with Shinji and his friends. Gendo is cold to the idea at first but then, in his mind's eye, Rei forms into Yui who asks Gendo to look after their son. After seeing this, Gendo agrees to the idea.
		+
		+	== Manga versions ==
		+
		+
		+	=== Neon Genesis Evangelion ===
		+	In [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yoshiyuki_Sadamoto Yoshiyuki Sadamoto]'s [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neon_Genesis_Evangelion_%28manga%29 manga adaptation], Yui's role is identical to that in the anime, but is expanded slightly. In the aftermath of the fight with the Angel [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeruel Zeruel], she appears inside Unit 01 and tried to convince Shinji to remain with her. Initially, it seems to be working well: Shinji refuses to come out when attempts are made to retrieve him, forcing the contents of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neon_Genesis_Evangelion_glossary#Entry_Plug Entry Plug] to spill out. However, Rei mentally calls out to Shinji, and Yui's face peels away to reveal that it is Unit 01 itself who has disguised itself as Yui to try to trap Shinji inside itself. Upon seeing Unit 01's true self, a horrified Shinji struggles with the Eva, crying out to Yui. A female form appears behind the disfigured body of Unit 01, and appears to merge with Shinji. Later, Shinji sees a scene from the past: His parents were under a tree, and Yui was breastfeeding an infant Shinji. After a short conversation with Gendo, Yui then notices her grown son and asks him to join her. Surprisingly, Shinji is unable to move, despite his desire to get close to his mother. Yui then convinces Shinji to leave the confines of Unit 01 and go back to the world.
		+
		+	While the manga is in black and white, the cover of volume 8 depicts Yui with reddish-blonde hair and light green eyes, rather than the brown hair and dark green eyes she has in the anime.
		+
		+	Girlfriend of Steel 2nd/Angelic Days
		+	In this series, it is revealed early on that Yui is still alive and working at Nerv in an unspecified capacity. She does not play a major role until the fifth volume, which takes place in the past, when both she and Gendo were junior high students attending the same school. As a junior high student, she is the hard-working class representative with many friends. However, she feels concern for Gendo, and attempts to get him to open up to her. In doing so, she and Gendo manage to become close, but this comes at the cost of her other friendships at the school.
		+
		+	=== Shinji Ikari Raising Project ===
		+	In this series, Yui is the head of research operations within Nerv (taking over [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ritsuko_Akagi Ritsuko Akagi]'s place). Here, Rei becomes her distant relative.
		+
		+	She is shown to be a jovial mother and hardworking scientist, although she does not tolerate too much foolishness. (When Gendo shone his torch in a scary fashion during a blackout, Yui gave him a comical smack.) Yui keeping Gendo "in line" and smacking him for his antics seems to be a running gag in the series.
		+
		+	== Character notes ==
		+	"Ikari" is "anchor" in Japanese. According to series creator [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hideaki_Anno Hideaki Anno], the name Yui was "a simple pun on yui 唯 [only one]." Sadamoto's artbook ''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Neon_Genesis_Evangelion_media#Der_Mond_and_Die_Sterne Der Mond]'' includes concept sketches of several characters; one such sketch for Rei was a dark-haired, green-eyed character named Yui Ichijo.

In the aftermath of the fight with the Angel [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeruel Zeruel], she appears inside Unit 01 and tried to convince Shinji to remain with her. Initially, it seems to be working well: Shinji refuses to come out when attempts are made to retrieve him, forcing the contents of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neon_Genesis_Evangelion_glossary#Entry_Plug Entry Plug] to spill out. However, Rei mentally calls out to Shinji, and Yui's face peels away to reveal that it is Unit 01 itself who has disguised itself as Yui to try to trap Shinji inside itself. Upon seeing Unit 01's true self, a horrified Shinji struggles with the Eva, crying out to Yui. A female form appears behind the disfigured body of Unit 01, and appears to merge with Shinji. Later, Shinji sees a scene from the past: His parents were under a tree, and Yui was breastfeeding an infant Shinji. After a short conversation with Gendo, Yui then notices her grown son and asks him to join her. Surprisingly, Shinji is unable to move, despite his desire to get close to his mother.
