Theory and Analysis:Asuka and the Bathtub
"Miss Misato, please don't go out like that. It's embarrassing." |
After running away from home in Episode 23, Asuka roams the streets of Tokyo-3 for a while, and is only found afterwards by Section Two personnel in an abandoned, run-down building. She is starving, skeletal and naked in a bathtub filled with an orange/reddish liquid, with her clothes neatly folded on a chair nearby. Additionally, in End of Evangelion, she is seen with IV tubes inserted into her wrists in the hospital scene. This seems to indicate that Asuka might have tried to kill herself by slitting her wrists, but other evidence contradicts this. As Asuka stated, she has lost the will to live, but it does not seem she has the will to kill herself either, and has chosen to merely wait for death, up until the point NERV "rescues" her.
