Asuka Langley Sohryu

Asuka (惣流・アスカ・ラングレー, Sōryū Asuka Rangurē) is a human high school student with Asperger's Syndrome who attends Madame Grandin's School for Gifted and Talented Aspies. She likes to draw pictures of different characters or people reimagined as anthropomorphic animals. This sometimes draws ridicule from her peers, which upsets her. She hates having to go outside due to all the noise and having to wear uncomfortable clothing, as a way to comfort herself she imagines she is going off to battle in a robot and that unpleasant senses are the result of damage to the robot.

Asuka's favourite thing to draw is her fursona, a female red cat/fox hybrid with orange and green ears, an orange and green striped tail, and a tuft of orange hair on its head. It wears a black collar and has two white feathery wings protruding from its back. Her fursona also has psychic powers inherited from an angelic ancestor and the ability to summon a phantasmal tantō which drains the souls of its victims.

Notable Events

 * Asuka's roommate Shinji once criticised her drawings, when Asuka criticises Shinji in response, Shinji became very upset.
 * Asuka once went to the tanning salon and ended up getting too tanned. When Shinji saw her he said, "You look like a n***er!" and Asuka retorted with "YOU LOOK LIKE AN IDIOT!" which made Shinji cry.
