I'll be reviewing this article. Since we are taking in the middle of parties, I suppose the editor or might make less active but no pressure.Tintor2 (talk) 21:25, 10 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Let's go!

Lead:

• Lacks the nihongo lead specific template to properly identify the kanji and romaji
• "Critics have drawn parallels between Misato's characterization and concepts of philosophers and psychologists such as Carl Gustav Jung, Arthur Schopenhauer, and Friedrich Nietzsche." Considering the analysis is suddenly brought up, I would suggest give a brief explanation to why she is compared to those.
• The second paragraph uses the word character several times.
• Since Shinji is the anime's protagonist I would suggest mentioning that in the third paragraph to make it easier to understand.
• You considered giving the infobox a more appropiate image fitting of Misato? Full body shots are hard to find though.

Conception

• "Some staff members, such as Jun'ichi Satō, had also worked on the animated version of Sailor Moon." This is kinda random unless you can expand on this. If not it seems trivial.
• Seiyuu seems unnecessary when we can already write Japanese voice actor. Kinda like how mangaka is rewritten as manga artist to make it easier to understand.

Appearances

• Is the nihongo for Captain needed? Feel free to keep it but I find it redundant.
• When first mentioning that she takes Shinji, I would suggest writing it's the first episode to make it easier to understand rather than giving the idea of a biography.
• I know the tv series and End of Evangelion are pretty much similar in terms of inent (correct me if I'm wrong) but I would suggest mentioning that movie.
• Is the Rebuild of Evangelion image needed? There is no commentary from Sadamoto or anybody else to give the character. For example, when I wrote Allen Walker I only added his armor look when finding real world information about its creation.
• In other media I suggest writing this part in present tense.

@TeenAngels1234: That's all for today. Good work.Tintor2 (talk) 21:24, 15 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Tintor2: I revised all points. Hope it helps.--TeenAngels1234 (talk) 22:22, 17 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@TeenAngels1234: Okay let's go with round 2: Characterization and themes

• "In 2015" sounds kinda like too much in-universe. I suggest revising this tidbid.
• Misato's relationship with Kaji is also explored way too much when appearances already details them. I suggest trimming it. Same with Shinji's relationship as this is mostly about Misato. The commentary from the staff themselves might be more appropiate that the previous sentences.
• "The disappearance of her father caused her psychic trauma, leading her to become mute for several years and to act in an unhealthy manner towards other men." Is this really important for the character

Cultural references and psychoanalysis

• Her relationship with Kaji is explored again.

Popularity

• There are several polls mentioned but are those Evangelion exclusive or anime in general. We could divide into two different sentences in regards to that.

They are already divided according to this pattern, since the first two groups are generic.

• "The websites Screen Rant[202][203] and Comic Book Resources[204] ranked Misato among the best characters in the series." This sounds like popularity content but I'd suggest just leaving the content the article' prose have.
• The last sentence about similarities kinda seemed trivial as they don't explain why those journalist compared Misato with other characters.

Nice work with the article.Tintor2 (talk) 23:29, 17 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Tintor2: Okay. I think I fixed all the points.--TeenAngels1234 (talk) 18:29, 18 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
