In Episode 21 of the Anime, Kaji is (supposedly) killed by an unknown third
party in a drainage tunnel somewhere in Tokyo 3. Just before he died, he
proclaimed to the shooter that they were late with a smile on face, and a shot
is heard when the screen fades to black.

Now, I know that Kaji was a agent working for multiple firms, as well as
serving his own interests, primarily working for SEELE and NERV as double
agents for each respective organization, which means that he worked in areas
like black ops and espionage, "retrieving" information for the parties
concerned in secret.

This meant that he uncovered some information that either or both parties were
very cautious about, and would ultimately mean that the respective party would
go through excessive means to stop the leak.

My question is this, when Kaji stole the information from all parties
concerned, did he know before hand that he was going to die very, very soon?

Did Kaji know that he was going to die in Episode 21?


He knew that he was going to die but it was not directly due to his espionage.  
Freeing the kidnapped Fuyutsuki is the most likely cause of his death
according to the dialogue in episode 21.

>  Fuyutsuki: It's you.  
>  Ryouji: It's been a while.  
>  Fuyutsuki: This action will result in your death.  
>  Ryouji: All I wish is to get closer to the truth... within me.
