Rei is awesome to me - I feel like her character type plays on a very common one ("Emotionless Girl") without it actually being present - Rei is very clearly not emotionless or expressionless, and I find it very interesting to see how she does or doesn't react to things. She's not happy with her life at all, but she is very accepting that this is the way things are, which to me is incredibly tragic. I don't know if this comes out to 'awesome,' but I do feel that she is a very well-written and sympathetic character.
Also, Ritsuko killed someone who threatened her relationship with Gendo. I think it's safe to say she had agency.
^^; She did? I remember her mother killing Rei I, but maybe I'm fuzzy as well about Ritsuko .. .
