Actually don't listen to anyone in this thread at all. They are all wrong so far. Rei is the First Children. Asuka is the Second Children. Shinji is the Third Children. Touji is the Fourth Children. Kaoru is the Fifth Children. There is no such thing as a "Child" title designating a pilot in the original Japanese version of Evangelion. They use the English word "Children" and they use it on purpose (ie it is not a mistake). -- Michael Wignall "Tomorrow's just an excuse away..."
