Some of the main heroes became a source of inspiration and a model to which subsequent anime drew inspiration, especially Rei Ayanami, creating or helping to spread new stereotypes in Japanese animated productions. Critics had mixed feelings about their psychological depth: although some reviewers appreciated the complexity and depth, praising Anno's script, others found it stereotypical or problematic and did not appreciate the insistence on their weaknesses and their characterization in particular, the last two episodes attracted controversy, since the plot is eclipsed by moments of introspection. The characters in Japan met with the favor of the public, becoming the protagonists of merchandising articles and winners of popularity polls.

Many of the heroes in the second half of the series suffer trauma or physical violence, which exacerbate their anxieties and fears, and the episodes give ample space to their inner monologues, with which they question the meaning of their actions and life. The different personalities were developed from that of Hideaki Anno, director and main scriptwriter of the work. The character design, drawn by artist Yoshiyuki Sadamoto, was conceived so that each individual could be easily identified by a simple silhouette. The protagonist is Shinji, a teenage boy who was recruited by his father Gendo to the shadowy organization Nerv to pilot a giant bio-machine mecha named " Evangelion" into combat against beings known as " Angels". The Neon Genesis Evangelion anime series features an extensive cast of characters created by Gainax.
