Seele Audio Profile No.4: Asuka Langley Soryu

[wqsid]

@Archedgar More like no reason

[irishmanwithagun]

@wqsid The reason is to differentiate the the original Asuka and Rebuild Asuka. Shikinami's a rather different character from Asuka.

[Archedgar]

They changed her name in rebuild for some reason.

[elchistosoII]

This song makes me think in Texas, Yeah bro! :P

[pspboy7]

This song does actually suit her. You guys just complain cause you can't be as cool as her hehe.

[hotelmario510]

I never understood why Asuka's music sounds like Country and Western...I mean, she's from frickin' Germany, home of Kraftwerk. Could they not have made an electronic-sounding number?

[ndalum75]

@hotelmario510 It fits her character, and an electric sounding song would not have fit the rest of the soundtrack.

[hotelmario510]

@ndalum75 Good point, I guess. But it just seems out of place on the soundtrack.

[AuryLee]

@hotelmario510 u should think about german's mountains! and... sheeps! and... beers! and... blondy skirt women!

[hotelmario510]

@AuryLee Actually, Asuka is part-American, so I retract my former remark.

[AuryLee]

@hotelmario510 ^^

[Dbmisteriou]

@hotelmario510 nope she his half german 1/4 japanese 1/4 american

[hotelmario510]

@Dbmisteriou So, part-American, like I said, then?

I'm sorry, in what way is this a correction?

[Dbmisteriou]

@hotelmario510 it wasnt really a correction more like a precision :)

[MXopti]

@hotelmario510 ... maybe when eva was created (pre 1995 that was its release year) karftwerk an rammstein weren't popular in japan (if they did exist)

also this was her "introdution-musik" ... when she was the "most liked girl in school" ... her darker sides were shown up later so "dark electronic sounds" wouldnt fit (in the introdution - later ofc yes)

[Exilelangely]

@hotelmario510 Man read wikipedia.

asuka is 1/4 japan, 1/4 germany. but he live in America. and in 2015 ( in evangelion time ) he goes to germany then live there. so he meet hher kyoko ( eva 02 )... then the next u know...

old version her come with the American navy i know. u know it. that episode who fight the sandlphone.

then in eva 2.0 defeat the giant angel...

[hotelmario510]

@Exilelangely I made that comment 8 months ago, when I was a relative newcomer to the Eva fandom. You don't think I realise that by now?

[Exilelangely]

@hotelmario510 right. buy the old evangelion. u will get it

[hotelmario510]

@Exilelangely Eight months!

I get it now! I've seen the whole series, and End of Evangelion, and the Rebuild movies! I get it!

[KendrixTermina]

Poor Shinji...Asuka really makes his life very hard XD

[wblstudios]

The fuck is this hillbilly shit?

[Zellig]

@wblstudios GA HYUK HYUK HYUK DARN T00TI'N! YALL! :D :D A HUH HUH HUH !

[wblstudios]

@Zellig I live in the south,so sadly, I understood that completely.

[Dbmisteriou]

@jordancr ya well if i would have been in shinjy place i would have just removed her hand and continue and not falling back almost jumping backward for air HE did needed air but the way he said nothing and all was kinda rejection anyway your right but its not only at that tme shinji did disapointed her often when for example she said do a man of youself and argue with me (For the school trip) if he would have got up and said something then she would have maybe finished with him at the end anyway

[imortalvalk]

Also... asuuuuka not aska.....

[SpartanElite095]

@imortalvalk No, it's pronounced aska.

[imortalvalk]

@SpartanElite095 LIES!

[l33tnobody1337]

@imortalvalk lol wut?

[Dbmisteriou]

@SpartanElite095 its pronounced aska buttt spelled asuka soryu langley or sorhyu in japanese

or something like that and she is german i think its her step mother or something that is japanese

[SpartanElite095]

@Dbmisteriou I was referring to the pronunciation.

[Dbmisteriou]

@SpartanElite095 no like for example say asuka fast not like as u ka just say asuka and it sound aska but it is stil asuka :)

[SgtHydra]

You should probably remember that this is the Japs we're talking about, so giving an American character a country western theme is no surprise.

'Sides. It's awesome.

[w7alsaSKA]

@SgtHydra

wasn't she german? ^^

[SgtHydra]

@w7alsaSKA She is partially German. And Jap. And American.

In any case, the song suits her "raw, unlady-like" personality.

[pspboy7]

Who cares, for some reason the theme suits her, get over it folks...

[ultrajd]

I like Asuka but I have never understood why they gave her a hillbilly theme.

[Raptor232]

@ultrajd Asuka is hot, plain and simple, but you have a good point, why the fuck did they give her a theme like that?!

[ultrajd]

@Raptor232 Maybe Anno was drunk on the day they thought up her theme song.

[Undertakergrave666]

Damn, She is HOT
