Asuka Langley Soryu is the pilot of Evangelion Unit-02. She is 1/4 Japanese and 3/4 German, although her Nationality is American.

Past

Asuka is the daughter of Kyoko Zeppelin Soryu, who went insane and committed suicide after a contact experiment with Unit-02. Until recently, Asuka lived in Germany, Where she met Misato Katsuragi and Ryoji Kaji.

Tokyo 3

After traveling to Japan with Kaji, Asuka Moved in with Misato and Shinji Ikari. She is very vain and proud, and thus she treats her fellow pilots Shinji and Rei like rivals instead of teammates. After arriving in Tokyo-3, Asuka becomes close friends with her classmate, Hikari Horaki. Asuka has a crush on Kaji, as well as feelings for Shinji (as Episode 22’ reveals), although the former politely declines her various advances while the latter appears to be oblivious to her true feelings. As the series progresses, Asuka develops hatred towards Rei because Asuka feels that Rei acts like "a doll", doing only what she's ordered to instead of thinking for herself. A doll relates to a traumatic childhood experience Asuka went through which dealt with Kyoko's insanity and eventual suicide. It's revealed that the reason Asuka so vain and proud is due to her mother's suicide. After Kyoko went insane, she had a doll who Kyoko thought was Asuka and wanted them to die together because "they weren't needed". Asuka's father was having an Kyoko's doctor (who later become Asuka's stepmother). Asuka's mother hung herself and the doll the same day Asuka found out she would become an Evangelion Pilot. Not wanting to die as well as wanting her mother to pay attention to her, Asuka decided at her mother's funeral that she wouldn't cry or act in ways that are childish, all in an effort to become an adult sooner to forget about her problems.


In The End of Evangelion, Asuka discovers her mother has always been with her inside Eva. However, it's matter of debate as to weather or not Kyoko was partly insane; that her soul in Eva didn't just contain her "maternal component", but the insane, doll-hanging component, as well. She begged Asuka to die with her twice amongst her words of Asuka needing to live on.


Psychological Problems

Asuka seems to suffer from Narcissistic Personality Disorder, as she shows off her superiority complex externally, but internally she actually feels inferior (not thinking she can do anything without Eva) instead.
