Exploring the Connection Between Rei Ayanami and Unit-00 in Neon Genesis Evangelion
Reader’s Question:
I have a question about the anime Neon Genesis Evangelion. As fans know, Rei Ayanami is the pilot of the Evangelion Unit-00, and the “zero” in Unit-00 is pronounced “rei.” Is this a deliberate connection to Rei Ayanami’s name, or is it just a coincidence?
