Neon Gensis Evangelion: Soryu Asuka Langley and Ayanami Rei
Although Asuka started out with a high synchronization ratio and exceptional skills as an Eva pilot, her defeat in battle by the Angel Zeruel caused her self-confidence to dwindle, losing her effectiveness as a pilot. Asuka became infuriated when she was ordered to serve as Rei’s backup, and decided to launch herself in Unit 02 to attack the Angel alone. She paid the price for her recklessness, however, as she was overwhelmed by its attack, forcing her to relive painful memories which resulted in a mental and emotional breakdown.
A very lovely cosplay of Asuka by Kanda Midori and an equally stunning Rei! Too bad we have no idea who Rei’s cosplayer is. Thanks again to Fumiki for sending this in!
