Talk:Asuka Langley Soryu
Bakameter
Lessee that baka list, Szmit... Make sure you didn't miss any. ^_^ --Reichu 10:49, 25 August 2007 (EDT)
Bathtub
Asuka's Roman Bath or lack thereof? Is this lil' scene from 24(') as well as Shinji's attempt in 25' something that IS fact, or should such things be best left up to the Theory and Analysis section? I ask because it--to me--seems pretty obvious at that point in the series Asuka (as well as Shinji) would try to kill themselves, but I know some fans think that despite the blood/rust looking more like blood as each version progresses (OA version to DC to Renewal) and the continuity error(?) of her slit wrist switching sides. Thanks. --Sailor Star Dust 23:21, 23 August 2007 (EDT)
- Roman Bath... You can mention her decrepit state in that bathtub, at least, but any more than that should be exiled to T&A. --Reichu 03:10, 24 August 2007 (EDT)
- Same thing for Shinji and his "wet head" in 25' then? --Sailor Star Dust 14:21, 24 August 2007 (EDT)
Nationality
Um, Asuka's nationality is what? I could have sworn that something in the series states she's 1/4 Japanese and 3/4 German, so does some other SAUCE state otherwise? Also, has it been decided her age was 13 or 14? Thanks!--Sailor Star Dust 21:17, 16 August 2007 (EDT)
- The "quarter Japanese, quarter German, American nationality/citizen" thing is in plenty of sources. (Just flipped through some on my shelf.) I always thought the latter part was weird, since AFAIK they don't give you anything in the show besides a European-style surname, "Langley", which was taken from the name of an American ship -- ergo she got it from an American father named Langley, and what's this "citizen/nationality" crap all about. --Reichu 21:37, 16 August 2007 (EDT)
- She "technically" holds American citizenship because her father was a US citizen, but it's doubtful she's ever even set foot in the USA. It's also doubtful Asuka even identifies with the USA; she seems to have spent her whole life in Germany. Really, I think it's that she holds "dual citizenship" (I know people that have dual citizenship). It's just a bit of trivia and not really important. --V 11:38, 17 August 2007 (EDT)
Psychology
Let's drop-kick those diagnoses. See Shinji's discussion page for more details... --Reichu 11:40, 25 August 2007 (EDT)
