Rebuild of Evangelion characters
The Rebuild of Evangelion films retain the core cast of Neon Genesis Evangelion—Shinji Ikari, Rei Ayanami, Asuka Langley Soryu, Gendo Ikari, Misato Katsuragi—whilst introducing new characters and variants (such as Mari Makinami) and diverging storylines. Character arcs are resolved across the four films, culminating in 3.0+1.0 Thrice Upon a Time.
