Supporting Cast

  • Notes: Sometimes referred to as the "JA Guy" by fans who don't know his real name.

Any Other Nerv Personnel Worth Including

Rest listed in order of appearance

  • Notes: Tells Gendo he's answered information requests with falsified data and asks if he should do something about "that other matter", possibly refering to Jet Alone. He has Kaji's seiyu, but it's not known if he is actually supposed to be Kaji. Kaji should be in Germany at this point, or aboard Over the Rainbow if that vessel had already departed from Wilhelmshaven.

  • Notes: Likes golf. Named after a character from Ai to Gensou no Fascism.

Dog Lady

Math Puppy

  • Appearance: Episode 14 (SOUND ONLY)
  • Seiyu: Kotono Mitsuishi
  • Notes: A guest on a radio show that's overheard by Shinji after the Unit-00 contact experiment. The show features a puppy that always answers the radio host with "WAN!" This is in response to questions that have an answer that sounds similar to "WAN!", such as "one" or "won."

Cat Lady

  • Appearance: Episode 15
  • Seiyu: Miki Nagasawa
  • Notes: Gives Kaji info on Marduk. It's been speculated that she is Ritsuko's grandmother, but there's no real way to prove it.

Mentions

We hear about them, but we neither see them nor hear them. (At least, not as far as we know.) Some are of no significance whatsoever, but are included for reasons of pedantry.

Toji's Sister This is for Toji's sister in the TV series. For her Rebuild counterpart, see Sakura Suzuhara.

  • Mentions: Episode 03, etc.
  • Notes: She was injured during Evangelion Unit-01's first sortie and spends her time in hospital due to her extensive injuries. She has an expanded role and actual dialogue in Toji's scenario in Neon Genesis Evangelion 2: Another Cases, where she is given the first name Natsumi. In the Rebuild of Evangelion movies, she is given a name and a far more significant role. She appears for the first time in Evangelion 2.0, shown with Toji as she is released from the hospital. In Evangelion 3.0, we find that she has the name Sakura Suzuhara, and she has significant interaction with Shinji. Owing to the changes in role and character development, Sakura is treated as an entirely different person.

Nozomi Horaki

As seen in the Shinkalion crossover episode

  • Mention(s): Episode 17, Episode 18
  • Notes: Hikari Horaki's younger sister. As noted in the Character Name Origins page, her name is borrowed from a train service of the Tokaido Shinkansen "bullet train" line, in this case the fastest (and newest) of the three train services on the line. She is seen for the first time in the Evangelion crossover episode of the anime Shinkansen Hensei Robo Shinkalion, where she is voiced by Junko Iwao, but this appearance does not belong to the TV series or Rebuild movie continuity.


Kodama Horaki

As seen in the Shinkalion crossover episode

  • Mention(s): Episode 17, Episode 18
  • Notes: Hikari Horaki's older sister. As with Nozomi above, she is named after an express train service on the Tokaido Shinkansen, in this case the slowest, all-stations train service. She is seen for the first time in the Evangelion crossover episode of the anime Shinkansen Hensei Robo Shinkalion, where she is voiced by Junko Iwao, but this appearance does not belong to the TV series or Rebuild movie continuity.


Shinji's Sensei

  • Mention(s): Episode 15, Episode 19, Episode 24
  • Notes: Shinji lived with his teacher after being abandoned by Gendo. No age or gender is known. After the Bardiel incident, Shinji declares that he will return to live with them.

Seymour Nunn

  • Mention: Episode 07
  • Notes: Mexican amateur astronomer involved in Second Impact cover-up propaganda. Old ADV translations of the Episode 07 textbook page mistransliterate his name as "Ceimoa Nan".

Hideko

Kiyomi

  • Mention: Episode 15
  • Notes: Misato mentions wearing a pink suit to her wedding. (Possibly named after a character in Minako Narita's manga Aitsu.)

Kotoko

  • Mention: Episode 15
  • Notes: Misato mentions wearing a dark blue dress to her wedding. (Possibly named after a character in Minako Narita's manga Aitsu.)

Nozoku Takahashi

  • Mention: Episode 11
  • Notes: VOTE FOR HIM! VOTE FOR HIM!! His name was taken from Studio Ghibli employee Nozomu Takahashi in an in-joke. Studio Ghibli did animation work on Episode 11.

Ritsuko's Grandmother

  • Mention: Episode 23
  • Notes: Ritsuko speaks to her on the phone but we hear only Ritsuko's end of the conversation; thus she has no seiyu. Speculation that she is the same person as "Cat Lady" is highly tenuous.

Ryoko

  • Mention: Episode 21
  • Notes: Student of Fuyutsuki's (apparently)

Witz

  • Mention: Episode 07
  • Notes: Someone Shiro Tokita got approval from in order to give Jet Alone's password to delete all the programming to Misato. Named after the character Jerome Witz, manager of the "Seven", from Ai to Gensou no Fascism.

Yoshizawa

  • Mention: Episode 07
  • Notes: Someone Shiro Tokita needed to get permission from in order to give Jet Alone's password to delete all the programming to Misato. Possibly named for a character from Ai to Gensou no Fascism.
