Gaghiel is the only aquatic Angel to be pitted against NERV and, unlike most of the other Angels, is relatively lightly armed. Gaghiel's armament consists solely of a set of huge razor sharp teeth that are used to tear apart opponents, Gaghiel's jaw is so powerful that the Angel can quite easily bite right the way through the torso of an Eva. Gaghiel is also massive, and as a result of this can use its immense size and weight to serve as potentially devastating weapons during close combat. Despite the Angel's size, Gaghiel is extremely agile and fast which is vital to the Angel as it has no means of which to engage opponents at long range, and so therefore relies on its speed and agility to rapidly engage the enemy in close combat. Gaghiel also possesses an AT field like all the other Angels, though its effectiveness is unknown. |

this was an obscure angel that served as a guardian of the 6th Heaven. The Evangelion Gaghiel is a sea-borne moster that appears in episode 8 in which Asuka is first introduced. It attacks the convoy of ships that are carrying Asuka and the third Eva, Unit-02, to Tokyo-3. Both Asuka and Shinji ride inside Unit-02 while Asuka shows what she can do in the war against the angels. Eva-02 ends up trapped in the jaws of the angel, while it swims through the ocean, tethered to the angel's power line. Eventually they become the worm on a hook for Misato's plan. Misato reels the Eva and the angel back in, and the Eva pries the angel's mouth open in time for Misato to ram two large battleships down Gaghiel's maw. The battleships then open fire by remote control, blowing the angel away. |
