Revision as of 22:00, 31 May 2004
Rei Ayanami is a character from the anime series, Neon Genesis Evangelion. She is a 14 year old socially-withdrawn (introverted) girl. She turns out to be a clone, and is widely theorised to be a clone of Yui Ikari or a hybrid of Yui Ikari and the angel Lilith. Another popular theory is that she is a clone of Yui Ikari, but containing the soul of Lilith. It is also quite possible that she is genetically Lilith in origin, but physically manipulated to look like Yui, since Reis seem to drop out of Lilith's leg stumps.
These theories have been created due to fact that she is seen to have generated an AT field promptly before Kaoru Nagisa was killed. Also because she is seen merging and becoming Lilith in the End of Evangelion movie.
Three clones of Rei play a significant part in the series, and are referred to as Rei I, II and III. Rei I dies at the hands of Ritsuko's mother, after Rei I called her an old hag, and revealed to her that she was being used by Gendo. Rei II dies to protect Shinji from being infected by an Angel.
Rei is supposedly the base of future quiet mysterious girls in newer anime, such as Ruri Hoshino of Martian Successor Nadesico and D of Dual! Parallel Trouble Adventure
