[edit] AADD or "career woman"?
Well I think she does have AADD! Or does a "career woman" behave in such a childish but energetical way and drink "breakfast beer" like Misato? --Hattakiri 23:57, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
She could also have OCD, schizophrenia or any number of other conditions. She could also just be a childish person who puts on a serious face for work. Until we have word from Yosiyuki Sadamoto or GAINAX, speculation about any disorder Misato may have is pure conjecture and statements to the contrary, such as putting the character on a list of fictional characters who are 'diagnosed with, or positively identified as having attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) within their respective works' is not NPOV. It's your POV. Hrimfaxi 10:51, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
NGE was released in 1995, so Anno's depression must be long before that. Outside USA ADHD has become known in 2001 (there was an international conference). Thus we have the widespread phenomenon, that in the past the symptoms were known, but not the syndrom. (it's a pitty that my article "Characters with ADHD" still only is available in German. Notice: The German admins allowed it!) --Hattakiri 01:37, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
I'm inclined to believe she's bipolar. I am very similar to her in this respect and in other respects, right down to the birthday, though she's seven days younger. I am also very similar to Sakaki-san and Osaka from Azumanga Daioh, to the point that they are probably bipolar, as well. River, from Firefly, and Nono, from Gunbuster 2, also, is like me in the bipolarness. I have been diagnosed bipolar, and I'm similar to all these characters to varying amounts, even if they are works of fiction. Life imitates art. That's probably why there are no appropriate pictures for the Orgasm page, either. When it comes down to it, Hideaki Anno probably is bipolar. Galactiger 20:20, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Penpen
Is it worth mentioning her pet penguin in her bio?--70.110.56.53
- A short blurb mentioning him might not be a bad idea, but the big list of Evangelion characters gives a lot of his information. Willbyr (talk | contribs) 04:23, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
Liking pets is one of the things lonely people do. I think it's worth mentioning Galactiger 20:23, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] she talks with charm
I love the way she talks... should we mention? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 201.17.165.215 (talk • contribs) .
Uh, no, that's not really worth mentioning. Willbyr (talk | contribs) 04:59, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Alcoholic?
I question whether Misato falls into the "fictional alcoholics" category or whether she just drinks alot. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 130.64.137.66 (talk • contribs) .
[edit] Episode 23
In episode 23, I got the impression that Misato was, in fact, coming on to Shinji in an attempt at comfort (it seems she knows no other way.) Also, in one of the first episodes, she jokes that she "won't put any moves" on Shinji. A Freudian slip?
- It could certainly be interpreted that way (and if that was indeed the case, then Shinji's rejection might be an unusually perceptive move on his part), but as this is just a possible interpretation and to my knowledge has not been officially backed up, it's not fit for inclusion in the article. Don't forget to sign your posts. Willbyr (talk | contribs) 16:16, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Misato's car.
Misato's car being an alpine a310 isint spicific enough. The a310 wiki shows a car similar but not identical to misatos, noting mostly changes to the lighting fixtures at the front and bonnet.
Misatos car is actually a Renault alpine A310 1600ve, as shown in the below link.

You will note the bonnet air intake detail is copied onto everything from plugsuits to the evas themselves. This car speaks volumes about misatos car mania, in that they are extremely difficult to find. Only 30 are believed to be in the US right now inlcuding all design varients. This was due to the car being discontinued after renault bought alpine. It was a car made noteworthy by its affordability and comfort, while its low weight allowed it to reach 130 mph.

[edit] Misato's Blood Type
A addition was recently made to the trivia section which I took the liberty of rephrasing slightly. The trivia piece is as follows:
According to Misato's ID card, a glimpse of which is seen in episode 8 of the series, she is 1.63 meters tall and her blood type is AO (However the sections of the card listing her age and weight have been scribbled out due to embarrassment).
In adding the wikilink for blood type I decided to do a bit of research on that subject so I could perhaps quote some statistics on the rarity of Misato's blood type (Which I already thought was rather rare). From my research it seems that Misato's has the rarest blood type ever because according to the article on blood types and the ABO blood group system you cannot have a blood type of AO. You see there are only four main blood types: A, B, AB and O. The following parahraph from the page on blood types at the American Red Cross Education Centre explains why such a blood type is impossible:
When we talk about blood type, we are usually referring to the typing of red cells. We are looking for the presence or absence of the A or B antigen, and the Rh (or D) antigen, a protein substance which is found on the surface of the red cell. (If you are type O, you lack both the A and the B antigen.)
Now the question is, is the information presented in the article false or was it an intentional error on Gainax's half? --cheese-cube 04:43, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
