* Rei against Zeruel has first mention. No "maybes", "ifs" or "buts". During that battle Rei was facing alone a foe with overwhelming power and with no support or backing other than two dummy plugs untested in combat. Still she fought and endured as long as she could. Then Shinji and Asuka came along, riding Unit-03. Zeruel moved to struck them… and Rei went berserker in reaction, attacking Zeruel until it was dead.
** On that note: Shinji and Asuka hijacking Unit-03 and coming to the rescue, gambling on Asuka's friendship with Hikrai to allow them to achieve the sync rate needed for them to fight.

* The three Children against Bardiel: all of them--including Rei!--go against Gendo's hare-brained pestering... er, direct orders. Rei manages to rescue Hikari and bring her to safety and Shinji and Asuka do the BattleCouple routine, teaming up against Bardiel and managing to kill it without destroying the Unit. Furthermore, because they had killed the Angel without tearing apart the Eva, NERV had gained an Eva with an S2 core.

* Low-key example with Rei as she's still taking herself off of Akagi's drugs: When one of their classmates tries to flirt with Shinji, Asuka seethes, but can't do anything about it in public. Realizing that Shinji is feeling distressed, Rei takes this opportunity ''and'' advantage of her drug withdrawal to [[VomitDiscretionShot throw up all over the offending student]]. Asuka even commends her for being their team sniper.

** The very description of Asuka launching the Lance deserves to be repeated here:
-->Unit-02 threw the Lance into the sky with a throw that made every muscle in the Eva scream with effort. It was a throw that would have made Achilles roar with approval and envy, made Homer compose an ode to its beauty. It was a throw fueled by righteous fury and born of love. The air scorched in its wake.

Then Shinji drove Unit 01 berserker and started to shred Leliel's body as Unit 02 went berserker and ripped Leliel from within.
