Mitsuishi reprised the role for the video game Neon Genesis Evangelion: Girlfriend of Steel 2nd [32] and the film tetralogy Rebuild of Evangelion, produced ten years after the conclusion of the classic series. During the recording of the first chapter Evangelion: 1.0 You Are (Not) Alone (2007), Mitsuishi was asked to strain her voice to sound younger due to the time elapsed between the works. For the third chapter in the saga Evangelion: 3.0 You Can (Not) Redo (2012), which is set fourteen years after the first, Hideaki Anno asked her to act naturally and to be as cold as possible. [33] Working on You Can (Not) Redo, Mitsuishi asked the production what had happened to Misato but no-one gave her an explanation; she assumed something terrible had happened to the character and read her own lines as though everything was Shinji's fault. In the concluding chapter of the saga Evangelion: 3.0+1.0 Thrice Upon a Time (2021), Anno used theatrical techniques to ensure even in Misato's case the camera did not point at her face in particularly heavy scenes so Mituishi's interpretation would not be affected by her lip-reading. As Mitsuishi prepared for the character's last scene, she cried so much at the sight of the script she could not continue. [34]

I find the New Line release is more dynamic and better detail, especially when it comes to the base. They were able to accomplish that by producing in Cold Cast, PVC molds simply were not at the same level they are now. Unfortunately the material is notoriously brittle, and age will only make that worse. Finding an A grade condition will only get more difficult. Arisa’s height and figure have also contributed to her success. Standing at 5’6″, her height is considered tall in Japan, and her lean, toned figure has made her a sought-after model for various fashion brands. But despite her beauty, Arisa doesn’t rely solely on her looks. She puts in the effort to develop her acting skills and has taken on challenging roles that showcase her range and talent.Then I started to focus on the New Line, which is even older, but so cool. I prefer her overall design but I'm a little hesitant because of the lower quality standards of that time. Anthony Gramuglia (25 December 2020).

I still believe that Kotobukiyas Misato is the best Misato, but this was a successful attempt by UC.

I also love the other characters but a little more of Misato would have been appreciated by many collectors. She and Ryoji Kaji were lovers during college, and slowly rekindle their romance over the course of the series. She was also friends with Ritsuko Akagi in college, but their relationship unravels as she learns more about the ultimate goals of NERV and SEELE.

For the creation of the character, Neon Genesis Evangelion director Hideaki Anno took inspiration from his personality. Misato is also inspired by several real-life figures and other anime characters, including Usagi Tsukino from Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon. Critics have drawn parallels between Misato's characterization and concepts of philosophers and psychologists such as Carl Gustav Jung, Arthur Schopenhauer, and Friedrich Nietzsche; Misato's feelings for her father have been linked to Jung's Electra complex, her personal philosophy to Schopenhauer's hedgehog dilemma, and her psychology to the Dionysian spirit postulated by Nietzsche.Scott Green (14 June 2012).
