Hikari Horaki is the class representative of Class 2-A, the 8th grade class that all Eva pilots (and potential pilots) attend in the series.

Past

Hikari has two sisters: her older sister, Kodama, and her younger sister, Nozomi (neither of which ever appear on screen). She says that she is the only one that cooks for her entire family, heavily implying that her mother is dead.

Profile

As the "class rep", Hiarki always tries to make sure that class 2-A follows proper protocol, and so at first glance might appear to be slightly stuffy. Hikari might believe that herself, as she apparently thinks that her skill in cooking might be unexpected. But when Hikari is unsure how to approach Toji Suzuhara, whom she has a crush on, she offers, in a roundabout way, to make him homemade lunches after finding out he only takes store-bought ones, having no one in his family who can cook.

Hikari is friends with Asuka Langley Soryu. In Episode 15 Hikari set Asuka up on a date with a college-aged friend of her sister's, and in Episode 23 Hikari let Asuka stay at her house during a point in her nervous breakdown. Hikari told Asuka, "I think it's okay for you to do whatever you want and I won't say anything, because I think you did your best, Asuka", further suggesting that Hikari is somewhat less assertive outside of her classroom duties.

Like all of Shinji's classmates in Class 2-A, Hikari is secretly a potential Eva pilot candidate.

Notes

  • Hikari is the "class representative" (often shortened to "class rep"): in Japan this is a student leader elected by the class, whose duties include making sure that assigned daily routines (watering the plants/flowers, feeding the goldfish, etc.) are carried out, and generally seeing that good order and decorum are observed in class. Class reps also lead the class in the "Rise! Bow!" ceremonial greeting when the teacher enters the room (which Hikari is seen doing several times during the series). Essentially, "class representative" is more or less equivalent to "class president" in North American schools.
