*Asuka Langley Soryu is a character in the Neon Genesis Evangelion franchise:

Character Asuka is the pilot of the giant mecha Evangelion Unit-02, fighting Angels for the Nerv agency. She is the Second Child and co-protagonist with Shinji Ikari.

Background Asuka has a competitive and outgoing personality due to childhood trauma. She wants to be seen, embraced, and loved. She feels she isn't worthy of love and that piloting the Evangelion will give her a sense of identity.

In The Knights of the Multiverse Asuka joins the Crystal Knights to fight supervillains and travel the universe. She becomes the main pilot of God Sigma and later Shin Getter Two.

Asuka is a very proud individual, especially in her piloting, and comes across to others as proud and strong, with a very high opinion of both her appearance (particularly her recently "busty" body) and her skill as an Eva pilot. She is stubborn and finds it difficult to express her true feelings to others.*
