KREDIT
CharacterSurvivors of the Near Third Impact depend on KREDIT, the relief network of the final Rebuild film. WILLE created it and ran it outright before cutting it loose as an independent body; the young Ryoji Kaji serves in its ranks, and its name comes from the German word for credit.
Overview
KREDIT (クレーディト) takes its name from the German word for credit and enters the story in the final film of the Rebuild tetralogy, Evangelion: 3.0+1.0, carrying the subtitle Thrice Upon A Time. While WILLE wages its war against NERV, KREDIT shoulders the civilian side of the crisis, sustaining the communities that endured the Near Third Impact.
Role
Life support for the post-catastrophe population is the organization's whole mission. In its first incarnation it functioned as a direct arm of WILLE; a later restructuring set it up as an independent body. On the ground its people maintain the Angel-Sealing Hex Pillars that shield settlements like Village-3, and the group also runs support vessels of its own.
Notable Members
The younger Ryoji Kaji is the one member identified by name. WILLE remains the group's defining institutional tie, first as its parent and afterward as its partner in keeping survivors alive.
