What Your Neon Genesis Evangelion Character Says About You
In Neon Genesis, nobody is quite as they seem, and every character is intricately layered and complex. In this quiz, we tell you which character from the iconic anime you are based on your personality, and here's what your potential results say about you:
Shinji Ikari
You're the boy wonder himself! Is that a good thing? We guess that's up to you to decide. What we know for sure is that you're courageous, intelligent, and sensitive. You've been tossed into a dangerous world and lead a life that isn't always sunshine and roses, but you make the most of it. You understand that, as people, we have a responsibility to take care of the people around us and make sacrifices for the greater good, but you sometimes wonder when it'll be your turn to get what you want, not just work for what others want. That day will come! In the meantime, you'll stay humble and hard-working. Just remember to stick up for yourself!
Asuka Langley Sohryu
You're bold, boisterous, and larger than life! The whole world is your stage, and you want all eyes on you. Of course, deep down there's a more vulnerable, sensitive person hiding behind the brave one, and you sometimes use the big personality to mask your own fears, but we don't blame you. You were thrust into a position of huge responsibility before you were ready, and now you're just trying to make the most of it. You're proud, confident, and sometimes a little bossy, but that's a small price for people to pay to be in the presence of an icon in the making.
Rei Ayanami
You're quiet, sensitive, and observant, always watching the world around you and learning as you go. You have a deep intelligence and wisdom beyond your years, and you tend to see through people's masks into their true hearts. Life can be confusing and overwhelming, but you know that if you keep your head down and try your best, you'll be rewarded. At least, that's what we're all told, right? You get the feeling there's something more, and now you're slowly and gradually investigating. You'll have some big choices ahead of you, but we know that if you rely on your instincts and a cool head, you'll make the right choices.
Misato Katsuragi
You're young at heart, someone who's taken on a big responsibility when you'd rather be out having fun, but duty calls! You grew up a little too soon, and now you're just trying your best with what you're given. You can be a little dramatic or messy, but who wouldn't be in your position? Still, you're the best person for the job, and you make the whole thing work. Without you, things would definitely just fall apart. You don't always love what you do, but you know that sometimes the dirty work is necessary to live a clean life, and so you keep your eyes on the prize.
Mari Makinami Illustrious
You've got two very different sides. When things are light and breezy, you're an easygoing person who people love to be around. You're fun, friendly, and keep the vibe upbeat. But when it's time to roll up your sleeves and get to work, something flashes in your eyes, and you become a competitive machine, someone who's determined to show everyone else how it's done. That's a good thing if you're on our team, but we wouldn't want to face off against you. You're passionate, enthusiastic, and totally tunnel-visioned on your goal. Nothing will get between you and what you want, so everyone else had better step aside!
Ritsuko Akagi
You're the brains of the operation, the person who works behind the scenes and makes everything tick. You're mature, level-headed, and reliable. You know what you're doing, and you can't stand when someone else tries to butt in and take over. You've seen your fair share of troubles, and you've learned a valuable lesson from each of them. Now, you're focused on nurturing yourself and clocking out when your time comes. You're hard-working, analytical, and logical, and your mind is as sharp as a blade and ten times as bright.
