History:

At the beginning of the series, Rei Ayanami is presented as an enigmatic young woman with an introverted, silent and uncommunicative character, who despite trusting adults, only shows emotions and sincere loyalty towards Gendo Ikari, with whom she also maintains a distant relationship. Rei lives on a desolate street in Tokyo-3, in the lonely apartment number 402. This apartment shows that Rei leads a monotonous and isolated life. It also happens to be a representation of the underground room where she was born and raised, as stated by Ritsuko Akagi in episode 23. Rei's most prized material possession is Gendo Ikari's broken glasses, which she picked up from the ground when he dropped them while freeing her from the Entry Plug ejected from EVA-00. In episode 05, Shinji goes to Rei's apartment to give her an ID. When she comes out of the shower, she doesn't seem to care that Shinji can see her naked. Instead, she gets upset when she sees the young man holding Gendo's glasses. When Shinji falls on top of her, Rei treats it as a minor annoyance and asks him to please move. She then gets dressed in his presence, showing no embarrassment or discomfort. Later, when Shinji tries to apologize to Rei for what happened, she doesn't seem to care. This shows that Rei is so inexperienced with dealing with other people that she has no idea what effect her nudity might have on a teenager.
