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)
