"Making something... Nurturing something is really great. You can see and learn so many things from the process." |
These are characters found in the world of Evangelion that do not appear in the 26 episode TV Series, End of Evangelion, or Rebuild of Evangelion.
Nerv: The White Paper
Marie Vincennes
Marie Vincennes is an American pilot in the tabletop role-playing game Nerv: The White Paper. She's "an Eva pilot for the time being, but she has not participated in any actual fighting." Marie is 14 years old and a child prodigy who holds a Ph.D. She "acts meek and polite, but it's only superficial -- she's haughty and domineering." In this way, Marie sounds somewhat similar to Asuka in Sadamoto's manga. Like so many other characters, she's named after a warship. Most likely it was the USS Vincennes (CA-44) that was sunk during the Battle of Savo Island in 1942, rather than its namesake Ticonderoga-class cruiser (CG-49) that was involved in the infamous Iran Air shootdown incident.
Girlfriend of Steel
Mana Kirishima
Mana Kirishima (霧島 マナ) appears in the video game Girlfriend of Steel, voiced by Megumi Hayashibara, as Shinji's love interest. She is characterized as an amalgamation of Rei and Asuka and pilots the T-RIDEN-T Land Cruiser. She is enrolled in Shinji's class, and Asuka is extremely jealous of her. As with many other Evangelion characters, her family name comes from a World War II warship; in this case, the Battlecruiser/Fast Battleship Kirishima.
She also appears in the Shinji Ikari Raising Project.
Musashi Lee Strasberg
Musashi Lee Strasberg (ムサシ・リー・ストラスバーグ) is one of Mana's fellow TRIDENT pilots from the Girlfriend of Steel game. He is voiced by Hiro Yuki. He is named after the mighty Yamato-class battleship Musashi and possibly acclaimed actor, director and founder of method acting, Lee Strasberg. Alternatively, his middle name and surname could have been derived from warships: the Battlecruiser/Light Battleship Strasbourg and the American destroyer USS Lee (the choice of middle name is unlikely, since the destroyer is obscure and Lee is a very common name).
Keita Asari
Keita Asari (浅利 ケイタ) is one of Mana's fellow TRIDENT pilots from the Girlfriend of Steel game. He is voiced by Tetsuya Iwanaga. [[]]

Second Impression
Mayumi Yamagishi
Mayumi Yamagishi (山岸 マユミ) appears in the video game Neon Genesis Evangelion: Second Impression. She wears glasses, likes to read books, and somehow has a core of an Angel inside of her. She is voiced by Kyoko Hikami. Her personality is a essentially female version of Shinji.
Shinji Ikari Raising Project
In the Shinji Ikari Raising Project game and manga, three new Nerv technicians are given names:
- Kaede Agano (阿賀野 カエデ), voiced by Ai Shimizu and named after the World War Two light cruiser Agano and possibly Matsu-class destroyer Kaede (female name or named after the warship, unclear)
- Satsuki Ooi (大井 サツキ), voiced by Maria Yamamoto and named after the World War Two 'torpedo cruiser' Oi and possibly the Mutsuki-class destroyer Satsuki as well (here too, Satsuki is a common female name, adding to the confusion)
- Aoi Mogami (最上 アオイ), voiced by Yui Horie and named after the heavy cruiser Mogami and possibly the cancelled Tachibana-class destroyer Aoi (it would be hilarious if it were three in a row - but it's perfectly possible!)
Detective Evangelion
In the Detective Evangelion game, there are four named murder victims:
- Natsuko Kako (加古ナツコ), the first murder victim. She is a 14 year old student in Tokyo-3 First Municipal Junior High School. Visually bears a striking resemblance to Nadia from Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water. Named after IJN heavy cruiser Kako.
- Kyouko Nachi (那智キョウコ), the second murder victim. 29-year-old science teacher at the Tokyo-3 First Municipal Junior High School. Named after IJN cruiser Nachi.
- Erika Kashii (香椎エリカ), the third murder victim. 27-year-old Nerv staffer in the Forensics Department. Named after IJN cruiser Kashii.
- Mimi Satsuma (薩摩ミミ), the fourth murder victim. 23-year-old music teacher at the Tokyo-3 First Municipal Junior High School. Named after IJN battleship Satsuma.

- Hitomi Amagi (天城ヒトミ)
Named after the Amagi-class battlecruiser Amagi.
