The mysterious Dr. Katsuragi (葛城博士) is Misato's father, a dedicated and brilliant scientist up until his death on September 13, 2000 (the day of Second Impact). He is seen (scarcely) only during a brief flashback in Episode 12.

Personal Life

overinvested in research, "big kid" running away from adult responsibilities / detatched from reality, absentee husband/father, "sensitive and delicate", oh noes my depressed wife dumped me, blah blah blah

Research

Energy research, S2 Theory, S2 Engine, Expedition, Adam, Second Impact, yadda yadda yadda

Notes

• Dr. Katsuragi is completely silent during his brief appearance. (ADV, however, chose to have him vocalize in their English language dub.)
• A lingering shot of a tattered, blood-stained glove features in the classified footage shown at the beginning of Episode 21'. This is, in fact, the missing part of Dr. Katsuragi's left-hand glove.
• Dr. Katsuragi seems to stare at his left hand the moment before he collapses. Combined with the bloody glove and the closeup of his lascerated hand, this would make three instances of attention being drawn to that particular hand.
• It has been suggested that Dr. Katsuragi himself served as the donor for the Contact Experiment with Adam. See: Theory & Analysis: Kaworu's Origins.
