    Gendo Ikari
     
    The 48 Year Old Commander of NERV
    Gendo is the the father of Shinji and possibly the most intriguing character in Evangelion. He is the ultimate villain but the ultimate hero. When his wife dissapeared in an "accident" testing EVA 01 rumors flew around about him killing his wife. More likley is that Dr Akagi, mothe rof Ritsuko, killed Yui Ikari in order to preserve her affair with Gendo. However Yui's soul inhabits EVA 01 and so he feels very strongly about that very EVA. Then he cloned his wife and an Angel and created Rei Ayanami who was to be his "Dummy plug" for the EVAs: a mindless puppet for him to control. Then he used his own son's EVA to cripple his son's best friend. He has a disregard for most human life and seems to only care about Rei. His ruthlessness is rivalved only by his ambition to complete his own agenda which is different for the Human Instrumentality Project launched by his bosses at SEELE.

    However Gendo is a hero. If not for his sacrifices the Angels would have destroyed the world. He burned his own hands to save Rei from death. He cannot love since the death of Yui and has the job of protecting the entire free world. If he hadn't crushed EVA 03 the Angel would have destroyed Tokyo 3. Most people consider Gendo evil but I see him as a damned man. Everything in his life has gone wrong and no matter what he does he will be sacrificing something or someone. He had to ditch his son in order to save the world.

    Gendo is the epitome of what EVA is about. A man trying to protect the world from the Third Impact while completing his own agenda. Is he noble? No. Is he evil? No. He is just trying to be the best man he can be against all odds.
