Best Neon Genesis Evangelion Characters

The Top Ten
1 Rei Ayanami Rei Ayanami is a fictional character from the Neon Genesis Evangelion franchise. She is the First Child (First Children in the Japanese version), pilot of the Evangelion Unit-00 and one of the female main characters.

Rei is the smartest and least out lashing, and a professional in the field of Evangelions. Unit 00 is a marvel to behold, the most emotions in Evangeline to sight. Rei is sweet but performs perfectly. Rei Ayanami seems neutral to the rest of the characters and just does the job assigned. Reading is something Rei has no problems with as well. A very interesting and richest of characters in the Evangeline Saga. Awesome! Also there are different version of Rei unit from Subspace Base Red and Yellow to the best recital Blue and Black have ever seen with a sibling performing. White and Black or perhaps Grey too can also be seen in Unit 00, plus a Spear that can go to Space through anything and at times a Shield appearing as a Spartan in sight when the Unit 00 of Rei is in sight. Amazed, very fond of Rei Ayanami!

2 Misato Katsuragi Misato Katsuragi is a fictional character from the Neon Genesis Evangelion franchise created by Gainax.

Of the main cast, Misato is shown to be one of the kindest and caring people. Does she have flaws? Yes. Does her hatred of the Angels sometimes bog her down and cause her to make mistakes? Absolutely. But at the end of the day, she does genuinely care about those around her, and feels the most like a real person to me.

She is amazing! I love her personality and I think she's a realistic character.

3 Asuka Langley Soryu

Asuka dealt with so many problems as a child. Seeing her mother go crazy and even seeing her mothers dead body. Even though asuka can be quite mean she pulled through everything and hid her true personality. Asuka is a awesome character and my favorite from the series.

Don't like her. She lost her mother in atrocious conditions, so did Shinji.
But well, she's smart and can be kind sometimes.

Clearly the best character in the whole series. The only one who actually fights with his problems.

4 Kaworu Nagisa

Oh Lord! I love EVERYTHING about Kaworu! He is perfect, beautiful and... so gay! He was the only one who truly cared for Shinji. His fate at the end every single time is sooo upsetting. I just want to see him playing the piano with Shinji forever! Why isn't he number 1!?

5 Shinji Ikari

Ikari Shinji has the full range of Emotions, from Happy to Sa or Angry or Thoughtful or Content the character goes to extreme ranges of that sort throughout the show really. Might not expect the show might be dull without Ikari Shinji.

He may be different than other heroes who are brave and strong but that's why he's the greatest of them all. Being a hero doesn't always have to be about being brave and loyal.

He thinks a lot about life and stuff. I like that about him. Some people say he is weak but he is strong in his own way.

6 Ritsuko Akagi

Brilliantly minded, sarcastic, and truly can take the heat.

7 Toji Suzuhara
8 Ryoji Kaji
9 Kensuke Aida
10 Kozo Fuyutsuki
The Contenders
11 Mari Illustrious Makinami

Very cool for a brand new child to the saga, hope Mari can be seen as one of the finest.

12 Pen Pen

Cute and intelligent; Pen Pen provides some distraction and relief for the audience from the nightmarish reality of the Evangelion universe.

13 Yui Ikari
