Not too long after Asuka (SLAP!) Comes To Japan (one of the most amusing episode titles in a giant robot anime), Misato comments to the Children how much they resemble her and her friends, when they met in Freshman Year: Asuka is like an angier, German Misato, Shinji is like a shyer, male Ritsuko, and Rei is like a quieter, female Kaji ('Of course, we'd changed a lot by Senior Year'). None of the three are terribly happy about this, particularly after Kaji and Ritsuko confirm it. Apart from Asuka not stealing Misato's beer anymore, what might they do to try to differentiate themselves (if Rei would even bother)?
