Description
Mari has a rather energetic and enigmatic personality and is generally in a positive mood. She enjoys piloting her Evangelion, Evangelion Provisional Unit-05, and sometimes sings to herself in the entry plug. She is also very friendly, though in combat she is shown to be extremely aggressive.
In addition, Mari is very noble in her fight against the Third Angel, being willing to sacrifice her life to destroy it by self-destructing her Eva. In the end, however, the entry plugs ejected seconds before the explosion that would have killed her.
Mari Makinami Illustrious is a character from the Rebuild of Evangelion film series. She is an Evangelion pilot and third-party operative introduced in Evangelion: 2.0 You Can (Not) Advance.
Out of all the pilots, she is the only one who admits that she genuinely enjoys piloting. Her repeated comments suggest that she enjoys the smell of LCL. She's uninhibited, identifying Shinji as a pilot in their first encounter by crawling up to him on all fours and sniffing for the smell of LCL. It is implied that Mari works for an unknown third party. A pilot designation has not been provided, assuming Mari officially has one.
Despite her apparent inexperience she is shown to be an expert pilot on the level of Asuka.
Mari has brunette hair tied into twin-tails with bangs parted to the sides. She wears an indigo headband with a white robotic design. Her eyes are teal, and she wears burgundy rimmed glasses. She wears a white shirt with a symbol on the left breast, a dark grey tie, a red and green pleated skirt with black knee socks, and brown tassel loafers.
She wears pink plugsuits with stylized accents and 05 and 08 both imprinted on the plugsuits.
Her first plugsuit was dark green with many accents, and she would wear a helmet with it.
