God I hate Asuka.
That bitch single-handedly ruined the entire film for me. She starts out completely and utterly repelent, and this continues until the very end of her screen-time. But even when she starts to grow up, the fact remains that she's used as a conduit for about 70% of the movie's fanservice (I know I'm exagerrating, but still...); the crown jewel of all of this is that RIDICULOUS test plug-suit. Why the F#@K would they have something like that even made? Honestly, that scene where she opens her heart and soul to Misato is impossible to take seriously, thanks to that suit.
Rarely do I ever have such a strong, uncontrollable urge to whack a cartoon character in the face with a brick, no matter how much I dislike them. Even when Gendo does the world a service and orders her to be ground into little-bitty c#@t meatballs, she STILL survives.
So, to sum it all up, I hate Captain Shikinami to the point where the very sight of her stresses my hump.
That's my two cents, anyway.
