If the character was in fact born on December 4, 2001, her actual age throughout the bulk of the series (which takes place during 2015) would be 13; since Third Impact is supposed to occur on or about January 1, 2016, she would only be 14 for about the last 'month' of the series. In addition, the [[Neon Genesis Evangelions 2]] Confidential Info states that Asuka graduated from college at age 14, which would be impossible if her birthdate was in the year 2001.-->[[List of characters in Neon Genesis Evangelion#Characters' Age and Birthyear|List of characters in Neon Genesis Evangelion]]</ref> fictional character from the [[Neon Genesis Evangelion franchise]]. Asuka is designated as the Second Child ("Second Children" in the original Japanese versions) of the Evangelion Project and pilots the [[Evangelion (mecha)#Evangelion Unit 02 (Nigōki: 弐号機)|Evangelion Unit 02]]. Her surname is romanized as ''Soryu'' in the [[English (language)|English]] [[manga]] and ''Sohryu'' in the English version of the TV series, the English version of the [[anime]] movie and on Gainax's website. ==Character overview== Asuka is only one quarter Japanese, which accounts for her Japanese name but European appearance. Asuka is a native of [[Germany]], having been raised there, though her nationality is technically [[United States|American]]. Asuka's native language is [[German language|German]], and in both the series and the manga she tends to curse in German. She is a [[child prodigy]] and has earned a [[university degree]] in an unspecified field as a teenager; she also speaks fluent [[Japanese language|Japanese]], but has trouble reading and writing [[kanji]]<ref>"Shinji: You're saying you weren't able to read the questions in Japanese? Asuka: That's right. I haven't mastered Kanji. I never studied Kanji at the university back home. Shinji: University? Asuka: Yeah, I graduated last year. What's written here?" Episode 10, ''[[Magma Diver]]''</ref>. She is characterized by her fiery red hair and equally fiery temper. Asuka is very proud of being an Eva pilot, and near-constantly wears her [[Neon Genesis Evangelion glossary#A10 nerve clip|A10 nerve clips]] in her hair, because she wants everyone around her to know that she is a pilot. Asuka's iconic [[catch-phrase]] (always directed at Shinji) is "''anta baka?!''" (あんたバカァ?!), "anta" being a contraction of "anata" meaning "you" and "baka" literally meaning fool or idiot. The official English dub renders this as "What are you, stupid?!" ==Family== Her mother, [[List of characters in Neon Genesis Evangelion#Kyoko Zeppelin Soryu|Kyoko Zeppelin Soryu]], was a scientist of GEHIRN's German branch of the Evangelion Project. When Asuka was four years old, Kyoko participated in a contact experiment with Unit 02 similar to the experiment performed by [[Yui Ikari]] with [[Evangelion (mecha)#Evangelion Unit 01 (Shogōki: 初号機)|Unit 01]]. She survived the test but became [[insanity|insane]], believing that Asuka's [[doll]] was her daughter and refusing to acknowledge the real Asuka, referring to her as "that girl over there." She eventually commits [[suicide]] by hanging herself; Asuka found her body when she went to tell Kyoko the good news that she had been chosen to become an Eva pilot. After Kyoko's suicide, Asuka's American father remarried a German doctor. This new mother is immediately repelled by Asuka's defensive nature, and finds herself unable to become attached to her. While talking to [[Shinji Ikari]], Asuka states that she doesn't hate her stepmother, but she feels as if she could never replace her real mother. During Kyoko's funeral, Asuka's grandmother had said to Asuka that she was "a strong girl", but it was alright if she needed to cry. However, Asuka protested against the idea and told her grandmother that she had to take care of herself for now on. From that day on, Asuka promised herself that she would never cry again. This causes her to repress a great deal of emotions, not to mention the emotional scarring that came from her mother's illness and death, leaving her twisted and vulnerable towards the end of the series. ==Character and relationships== Asuka comes across to others as proud and strong, with a very high opinion of both her appearance (particularly her recently "busty" body) and her skill as an Eva pilot. However, this personality is a front that protects a very vulnerable and insecure girl, a side which the viewer sees in her dreams or thoughts. She is often violent and intrusive of other people's space, especially Shinji's. She also has a strong need to be self-sufficient, and has a great deal of difficulty dealing with her self-perceived failure when she does need help; as her [[seiyuu]] Yuko Miyamura wrote of her experiences playing Asuka: <blockquote>"Just to let you know, Asuka wasn't the most open-hearted character I've ever met...every time I tried to draw myself in closer synchronization, Asuka would never allow herself to sync with ''me''. Even in the end, she would never step across the line and draw closer to me. The last scene in ''The End of Evangelion'' was done, and still she had never stepped across that line and come forward. One day, I figured out that there was a wall in Asuka's heart."<ref name = PlaceAsukaHeart>pg 166 & 167 of "A Place For Asuka In The Heart", written by Yuko Miyamura in 1997 and translated into English by William Flanagan. This short essay was included as a backpage supplement in the third manga volume released in the US: ''Neon Genesis Evangelion Volume 3'', story and art by Yoshiyuki Sadamoto 1966, English adaptation by Fred Burke, published July 1999 in Canada by [[Viz Communications]]. ISBN 1-56931-399-7; it is also included in the June 2004 edition of Volume 4 published by Viz in the United states. ISBN 1-59116-402-8</ref></blockquote> Thus her relationship with Shinji is one of the core aspects of the series, and affects both characters on multiple levels (see [[#Asuka's interactions with Shinji|next section]]). Her best (and seemingly, her only close) friend is her class representative, [[List of characters in Neon Genesis Evangelion#Hikari Horaki|Hikari Horaki]]. Although Asuka and classmate [[Toji Suzuhara]] constantly argue, she gives Hikari advice about pursuing Toji. Asuka is openly infatuated with [[Ryoji Kaji]], her former guardian after her mother died, and makes a number of advances toward him which he politely refuses. For this reason she envies her and Shinji's guardian, [[Misato Katsuragi]], especially after Misato and Kaji rekindle their romantic relationship. The "Director's Cut" of episode 24 also shows Asuka violently confronting Shinji and saying he's lying when he tells her that Kaji is dead. In her early appearances, Asuka has a high synchronization ratio and displays exceptional skill as an Eva pilot. She is also very aggressive and confident in battle, which works both for and against her as the series progresses. After being defeated in battle by the Angel [[Angel (Neon Genesis Evangelion)#Zeruel|Zeruel]], Asuka's self-confidence (and, correspondingly, her sync ratio and effectiveness as a pilot) begins to dwindle. This comes to a head in episode 22, when the Angel [[Angel (Neon Genesis Evangelion)#Arael|Arael]] appears. Burdened by increasingly poor results in synchronization tests, Asuka is infuriated when she is ordered to serve as backup for Rei. She launches herself in Unit 02 and tries to attack the Angel alone but is overwhelmed by its attack, which forces her to relive the painful memories of her past and causes her to suffer a mental and emotional breakdown. She loses the [[will (philosophy)|will]] to live and is incapable of piloting Unit 02 again in the series. ===Movies=== In ''[[The End of Evangelion]]'', Asuka is placed inside Unit 02 for protection from the Japanese Strategic Self Defense Forces assault on the GeoFront. With Unit 02 submerged in a lake and bombarded by depth charges, Asuka declares that she does not want to die and, in a moment of clarity, realizes that her mother's soul is carried within the Eva and has been protecting her all along. She regains her self-identity, engages and defeats the JSSDF, and is later confronted by the Mass Produced Evas. During the battle, she successfully disables all nine opponents; however, Unit 02's power runs out, and the MP Evas' S² Engines allow them to remain functional even after being severely damaged and/or mutilated. They proceed to eviscerate and dismember Unit 02 using their [[Neon Genesis Evangelion glossary#Lance of Longinus|Lance of Longinus]] replicas, thus causing Asuka's body to actually suffer the wounds inflicted to the machine and apparently killing her (her [[Neon Genesis Evangelion glossary#Entry Plug|Entry Plug]] is never seen being destroyed, but the NERV staff appear to believe her dead). During this final assault, Asuka is briefly able to reactivate Unit 02, but only enough for it to move its arm slightly, nowhere near the full "berserker" mode that Shinji is able to achieve. She is mysteriously alive and corporeally present at the conclusion of the movie, after Shinji rejects Instrumentality. Asuka does not make an appearance in the first film in the Rebuild of Evangelion franchise, as she did not appear in the corresponding episodes of the original series (only showing up in episode 8). The trailer for ''[[Evangelion: 2.0 Division]]'' after the closing credits for ''1.0'' includes a brief shot of her. ==Asuka's interactions with Shinji== Throughout the series, Shinji carries out a deceptively straightforward [[love-hate relationship]] with Asuka, who is going through [[puberty]] and deeply confused and uncertain: <blockquote>The thing I would ''like'' to say to the friend in my heart is, "Asuka, you're just a fourteen-year-old kid, aren't you?" Fourteen is a time of life when you are thrown against the wall of life. You are forced to learn. It's puberty, where you decide what kind of life you're going to live, right? ''Evangelion'' came to its climax just as you hit that point, but after that, what would your choices be, Asuka? What good would you try to do? What kind of adult would you grow into?"<ref name="PlaceAsukaHeart"/></blockquote> Shinji and Asuka are attracted to each other, but neither is able to properly express their feelings. Asuka's overbearing attitude and inability to admit her vulnerabilities keeps her from opening up to Shinji. In the episodes shortly after their first meeting, she seems to enjoy flirting with him and teasing him sexually, but this is mixed with frequent verbal abuse. She and Shinji kiss in episode 15, but she pinches his nose shut and nearly suffocates him. As the series progresses and her abilities as a pilot diminish, the resulting damage to her ego causes her to become increasingly harsh and cutting to Shinji. The Director's Cut of episode 22 reveals that, despite her actions, she still wants Shinji's affections and is saddened, frustrated and angered by his shying away from her (unable to recognize that her taunts and aggression are keeping him from getting close to her). During Arael's attack on her psyche, when she thinks about Shinji, she states (internally), <blockquote>"Why are you there damn you?! You don't do anything! You won't help me! '''You won't even hold me!''' You're no one! No one! NO ONE! WHY WON'T YOU LOOK AT ME?!." The last line was actually said to Kaji in a cut scene. </blockquote> She also seems to be very jealous of Shinji's friendship with Rei, which deepens her disgust toward Rei and fuels her venom toward Shinji, especially in the later episodes. The fractured state of Asuka and Shinji's relationship becomes a key factor on events in ''The End of Evangelion''. At the start of the movie, Shinji is shown with Asuka in her hospital room, begging her for help and trying to rouse her from unconsciousness. He accidentally pulls loose her vital sign monitors, exposing her breasts; he masturbates to this sight, but afterward is horrified and disgusted with himself for doing so. His guilt and increased self-loathing add to his previous traumas and cause him to become so uncaring of his own existence that he does not resist when the invading JSSDF soldiers try to kill him. This forces Misato to save him and to try to rouse him from this state so that he can escape the GeoFront in Unit 01. The beginning of Instrumentality and the trauma of seeing the mangled remains of Unit 02 in the hands of the MP Evas cause Shinji to enter a schizophrenic fugue state in which he and Asuka are back in Misato's apartment (interestingly, at the exact time when he and Asuka first kissed). Again, he begs Asuka for help, claiming to be afraid of Misato and Rei, while also revealing his true feelings for Asuka ("I want to stay with you...You're the only person who can help me.") Asuka denies his pleas, attacking (in her view) the selfish nature of his perceived motives. Overwhelmed with his own hopelessness, Shinji loses control and strangles her. Several indicators suggest that the depiction of Asuka in this scene is Shinji's perception of Asuka rather than Asuka herself. However, in the aftermath of [[The End of Evangelion#Episode 26: My Purest Heart for You (Sincerely Yours) / ONE MORE FINAL: I need you|the film's finale]], Shinji appears on a beach with none other than Asuka. He tries to strangle her; she does not physically resist him, but instead lifts her hand to stroke his face - incidentally, as [[Yui Ikari|Yui]] had done just moments before. At this he collapses, weeping, onto her chest, and as the film ends she says, "気持ち悪い。" ([[The End of Evangelion#The final scene|"Kimochi warui"]], translated into English in the subtitles as "I feel sick", and as "How disgusting" in the dub). The exact meaning of the symbolism in this scene, as well as the intended meaning of Asuka's final words, are unclear and heavily debated. As the series ends there, the specifics of her and Shinji's subsequent lives are left up to the audience. One theory is that she and Shinji assume the roles of the new [[Adam and Eve]], in spite of Yui's revelation to Shinji that all of humanity has the chance to return to physical form if they choose to do so. Official artwork seen on posters and DVD boxes for ''The End of Evangelion'' depicts Shinji and Asuka, side by side, looking out over the ruins of their world. It is implied that this occurs very soon after the final scene. One point of debate regarding the final scene is whether or not Asuka is actually Asuka, as she is drawn with brown eyes rather than blue, and her left eye and right arm are bandaged, a mirror image of the bandages that Rei had when Shinji first met her. This has led some to argue that the Asuka that is with Shinji is an amalgam of Asuka, Rei, and Misato. Others believe that these resemblances are merely figurative or coincidental, since souls can't combine now that the Third Impact has ended. This argument posits that Asuka's eyes are still blue, only appearing brown like Misato's because of the notably red lighting of the environment, and that the bandages simply coincide with the injuries she suffered while battling the mass produced Evas and have no more significance than a call back to Rei's previous injuries. This argument is backed up by color analysis of the [[cel]] of that scene, which was later published as a card. In ''Evangelion'' [[fanfiction]], Asuka and Shinji are often paired as a couple, despite the conflicts their personality disorders cause. This pairing has also made its way to the manga versions of ''[[Girlfriend of Steel 2]]'' ([[Neon Genesis Evangelion: Angelic Days]]) and ''[[Shinji Ikari Raising Project]]''. ==Manga version== ===Adaptation by Sadamoto===<!-- This section is linked from [[Neon Genesis Evangelion (manga)]] --> [[Image:NGEvol4Japanese.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Asuka on the cover of Volume 4 of the manga (Japanese printing). The cover shows her different hair color and the use of the series title imagery for the manga.]] In [[Neon Genesis Evangelion (manga)|the manga]] adaptation by [[Yoshiyuki Sadamoto]], Asuka is somewhat tamer than her anime counterpart. Though still overbearing, egoistic<!-- NB: not a spelling mistake. --> and even physically violent at times (seemingly even more so than in the anime), she's on slightly better terms with Shinji. She first appears in volume 4 of the series. In both the cover artwork for the manga and other color works by Sadamoto, Asuka is drawn with [[strawberry blonde]] hair, rather than the brownish-red of the anime. There were many changes to the sequence of events concerning her. In the anime, her first battle (against [[Angel (Neon Genesis Evangelion)#Gaghiel|Gaghiel]]) took up an entire episode and included an (arguably vital) assist from Shinji. In the manga, her solo defeat of the angel is only briefly mentioned in a video clip about her shown by Dr. [[Ritsuko Akagi]] to [[Misato Katsuragi]], Rei, and Shinji. Shinji's first actual meeting with Asuka also is depicted differently. In the anime, their first meeting is aboard the naval carrier ''Over the Rainbow'', and Asuka allows Shinji into the cockpit of Unit 02 while she fights Gaghiel. In the manga, Shinji, Toji, and Kensuke first encounter Asuka at an arcade, where she is unable to grab the toy she wants from the machine she is playing and furiously begins to kick the machine. Asuka then notices the boys staring at her and demands a "viewing fee" from them for seeing her panties (100 [[Japanese yen|yen]], as opposed to the anime in which Toji's "viewing fee" is a slap across the face). She and Toji begin to quarrel, and then Asuka accidentally bumps into a thug and is threatened by his gang. Asuka then proceeds to single-handedly take on — and defeat — the entire gang. Shinji is punched in the face by one of the thugs during the melee, and not until he arrives at NERV headquarters does he learn that the girl he has just met is in fact Asuka. In the fight against [[Angel (Neon Genesis Evangelion)#Israfel|Israfel]], instead of staying in Misato's apartment, she is put in a special room with Shinji, monitored via a hidden camera by Misato. Also, her background is changed so that she is actually a test-tube baby. Asuka's mother and her husband were unable to conceive a child, and divorced after he had an affair. When he re-married and was able to have a daughter with his new wife, Kyoko decided to be [[artificial insemination|artificially inseminated]]. The result was Asuka. Asuka's "father" is barely mentioned, though she claims that he was a renowned scientist and that the sperm bank was part of a [[eugenics]] program. However, despite her knowledge of her "father's" achievements, Asuka still suffers from an inferiority complex. In her mind, the circumstances of her conception mean that she is nothing more than spare parts or that she is artificial in nature, although she puts another spin on this while talking about it with Shinji, telling him, "I was born through the combination of an elite sperm and an elite egg…I was a chosen being, a ''special'' person." The feelings of inferiority that accompany these opinions are what drive her to overachieve and overcompensate. Also, Asuka has repressed the memories of her mother's insanity and death, making Arael's attack on her psyche especially traumatic; it is revealed that at some point before her mother's suicide, she tried to strangle Asuka. Also, the manga reimagines the infamous hospital opening scene from ''The End of Evangelion'' with Asuka and Shinji, beginning much the same way it does in the movie. However, from here it diverges incredibly. Shinji shouts that the Asuka he wants isn't the girl lying before him and Asuka seems to awaken from her coma temporarily to strangle Shinji. Luckily, NERV hospital staff separate the two and Shinji is led out while Asuka angrily screams that she hates everyone. Shinji breaks down crying outside soon after seeing his father and Rei pass by him almost unnoticed. ===Shinji Ikari Raising Project=== In this manga version, Asuka is a childhood friend of Shinji's. Although she still makes fun of him, she's also shown to have romantic feelings for him. As such, she was jealous when Rei joined them in school. Asuka's been peeped at by Shinji. (On one occasion where she wore a kimono, she unwisely allowed Shinji to rest his head on her lap. For the "accident", she gave the boy a slap.). In a flashback sequence, she is shown telling Shinji to stop crying ("You're a man, aren't you?") when they were little kids. '''Neon Genesis Evangelion: Gakuen Datenroku''' Asuka is generally the same as she is depicted in the original manga. She routinely insults Shinji and will not tolerate failure or rookies. She is an artificially created child. Like Rei and Kowaru, she is the only one of the three to have had parents or go to school prior to her current one. Unlike other versions, she seems to get on well with Rei. ==Character notes== [[Image:AsukaProposalDesgins.jpg|frame|right|Early designs for Asuka also featured her with shorter, brown hair.]] Asuka's Japanese surname comes from the Japanese [[World War II|WWII]] aircraft carrier [[Japanese aircraft carrier Sōryū|''Soryu'']]. Her German surname comes from the American aircraft carrier [[USS Langley (CV-1)|''Langley'']], also from WWII, while her mother's name refers to the nearly completed Nazi aircraft carrier [[German aircraft carrier Graf Zeppelin|''Graf Zeppelin'']]. Her first name comes from ''Asuka Saki'' (砂姫 明日香, ''Saki Asuka''), who is the main character of a Japanese comic "SuperGirl Asuka (超少女明日香, ''Cho-Shojo Asuka'')" written by Shinji Wada (和田 慎二, ''Wada Shinji''). Her mother's first name, "Kyoko", also comes from that comic's character ''Kyoko Aoi'' (葵 今日子, ''Aoi Kyoko'').<ref>{{cite web | title=''Evangelion'' character names | work=Translation of essay by [[Hideaki Anno]] about character name origins; includes a link to the original essay in Japanese | url=http://www.evacommentary.org/appendix/character-names.html | accessdate=August 19 | accessyear=2007}}</ref> "明日 ''Asu''" means "tomorrow" and "今日 ''Kyo''" means "today" in Japanese. The scene in which Asuka's mother, following her mental breakdown refuses to acknowledge Asuka & pretends that the doll is her daughter seems to be taken almost verbatim from a scene in [[Hayao Miyazaki]]'s [[Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind (manga)]]. Anno had previously worked on [[Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind|the film version of Nausicaa]] & had expressed an interest in creating a side story centered around one of the supporting characters, but was denied permission by Miyazaki<ref>[http://www.comicbox.co.jp/e-nau/e-nau.html#7 English Nausicaa text<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>. Linda Mason, known for her great talent in using "makeup to create color and texture, and to convey spirit" (Naomi Campbell), got inspired by Asuka's character to create a makeup look, shown in Linda Mason's book, Eye Candy, stating, "Asuka's strong personality hides and protects a vulnerable and insecure girl, a side we only see in her dreams and thoughts. Her character inspired this unusual, ferocious look.{{Fact|date=July 2008}} Early designs contained in the original proposal that was pitched to GAINAX featured the character with her usual long, red hair and also with shorter, brown hair. ===Ethnicity=== A fairly common mistake among fans is that Asuka is half-Japanese and half-German, or three quarters German and one quarter Japanese. In truth, the explanation of Asuka's ethnicity is that her mother Kyoko was half Japanese and half German, but her father is described simply as "American". "American" isn't an ethnicity, but a nationality, and her father's exact ethnicity isn't actually given. Nonetheless from his brief appearances in the series (and also in the manga) he would appear to be of European decent, thus making Asuka 3/4 "European" and 1/4 "Japanese", explaining her European appearance. ==Non-franchise video games== Asuka appears in the ''[[Super Robot Wars]]'' game series, where she often butts heads with equally hot-headed and intelligent Kouji Kabuto, the pilot of [[Mazinger Z]] and [[Mazinkaiser]]. She is also implied to have developed crushes on famous heroes, such as [[Char Aznable]] (in the guise of Quattro Bageena) and [[Amuro Ray]]. However, the writers of the ''Super Robot Wars'' are evidently believers in Asuka and Shinji's suppressed feelings for each other. For example, in ''Super Robot Wars Alpha'', Asuka jealously seizes a bouquet of roses Shinji meant for [[Lynn Minmei]]. In ''[[Super Robot Wars Alpha 3]]'', she snaps Shinji out of his depressed state during the battle with the mass-produced Evas by declaring that she could not be with someone who'd simply lie down and die. In ''[[KOF: Maximum Impact 2]]'' the character [[Leona Heidern]] has an alternate costume that resembles Asuka's plug suit. She also has a costume that resembles Rei Ayanami.<ref>[http://hg101.classicgaming.gamespy.com/kof/kof7.htm Hardcore Gaming 101: King of Fighters<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> ==References== {{portal|Evangelion}} {{reflist}} {{refbegin}} * {{Cite book | publisher = DH Publishing, Inc. | isbn = 0-9745961-4-0 | last = Fujie | first = Kazuhisa | title = Neon Genesis Evangelion: The Unofficial Guide | location = Tokyo, Japan; printed in the USA | date = 2004 }} {{refend}} {{Neon Genesis Evangelion}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Soryu, Asuka Langley}} [[Category:Neon Genesis Evangelion characters]] [[Category:German anime and manga characters]] [[Category:Fictional Eurasians]] [[Category:Fictional Germans]] [[es:Asuka Langley Sōryū]] [[fr:Asuka Soryu Langley]] [[it:Asuka Sōryū Langley]] [[ja:惣流・アスカ・ラングレー]] [[ru:Аска Лэнгли Сорью]] [[uk:Аска Ленґлі Сорю]]
