Rei Ayanami
Pilot Assigned to Evangelion Unit 0
The first girl selected to become a pilot of Evangelion. She is called "First Children." Her career
and genetic background have been erased from the records. She goes to Tokyo-3
municipal Jr. High school with Shinji and Asuka, but she doesn't have any friends other than these
two.
She started training for EVA since the E-project was in its early stages. So, she
transferred to the school when she was in her 7th grade. 1 week before Shinji
arrives at NERV she was wounded by the accident during a boot-up experiment, so
at the beginning of the story, she was hospitalized. It is suspected that the
cause of the accident is that her mind was not stable enough to control Evangelion
Unit 0.
She is quiet, and she never becomes emotional. She completes her duties
perfectly. But, in front of Gendoh, she acts like a Jr. High kid.
In the 5th episode, Ritsuko revealing comments about Gendoh and Rei.
She lives in an apartment by herself. It's a pretty bad environment. The area
around the apartment is still under construction, and the noise is
terrible.
She likes to wear white underwear.
She can't eat meat.
Her reason to be a pilot is "the bond with people".
There is not enough information about her.
Her thoughts during the compatibility test with Unit 1(?)...
