People's deaths are to be mourned. The ability to save people should be celebrated. Life itself should be exalted. -- Volken Macmani, Tatakau Shisho: The Book of Bantorra
I hate myself. But maybe I can learn to love myself. Maybe it's okay for me to be here! That's right! I'm me, nothing more, nothing less! I'm me. I want to be me! I want to be here! And it's okay for me to be here! -- Shinji Ikari, Neon Genesis Evangelion
Yes, I know. You thought it would be something about Asuka. You're such idiots.

Well, I meant her actual character rather than her likeness or something people make up in their heads so they can fap to her with a clear conscience.

It's understandable; after all, she's a well-drawn character, something even her detractors (grudgingly) admit. Heck even Reichu, clearly not a fan, admits that her arc was effective. That speaks well of both Reichu and Asuka IMO.

Male: Shinji
-Take away the abandonment and daddy issues and you get me. Er, well, you would have... watching Shinji helped me get through my issues. It's an on-going struggle and I still have a ways to go, but I can proudly say I have grown from my experiences.
Female: Mari
-I realize that she's new, but Mari stands out to me above the other females in the cast. Mari seems to be the type of person that I want to be; strong, determined, and confident despite being awkward (she sniffs Shinji... 0.o). It also seems that she's just fine being herself.

Not a long or indepth answer but...
Asuka without a doubt. Before watching Eva I could never fathom the lengths people go to with characters, but damn if I had the disposable income I'd consider buying an Asuka dakimakura, or maybe a figurine.
Edit: In case it needed to be said, not an 18+ one, or anything fanservicey.

<.< A while back I did some googling (note, I say googling, not research, because it was like 5 minutes max) and I found this website
http://www.dakimakurapillow.com/faq/#7
Honestly, I don't think finding one would be hard, I think the hard part would be assuring quality and what not, because the metrics I'd be working with would be Greek to me, not to mention whether a site is trust worthy or not. Regardless, that's still way to much money for me to splurge on a pillow. Give it a few years though, eventually I'll hit that point no doubt, seems the natural progression for people like me.

Favorite character: Asuka with Shinji being a close second
I'm more of a shy, introverted guy myself and I empathised more with the likes of Rei and Shinji if anything - so I do find it quite odd sometimes that Asuka is my favourite out of the entire cast. I usually don't associate and get along with those type of people IRL (I'm quite socially inept and incompetent, tbh) and I do find them quite exasperating to socialise with sometimes.
But I really did feel sorry for the girl (especially in episode 22) in regards to her discord with her mother at a young age and I really did pity the girl during her breakdown/downfall.
Anyway, I thought the entire cast was quite brilliant and the characters were nothing short of spectacular and I love them all for different reasons but if I had to choose a favorite it would be the flamboyant Asuka.

Well now I wouldn't say that...
My favorite is still Misato if anyone's curious. That women can carry a 7 minute cartoon all by herself if someone is willing to do it; can't say the same for the others.

I'm rewatching parts of the "Ascent" arc, and I'd forgotten just how brilliantly, sarcastically funny Asuka was. Through episodes 8 - 13, (and until she started to snap), Asuka was a fresh charge of energy into the show, and (particularly in episode 8), she really brought out Shinji's inner willpower/snark. If only this show wasn't about the slow corrosion brought on by *lack* of communication, those two really could've made an amazing team...
Favorite Asuka [s]whine[/s] line thus far (from the detox scene in Ep. 13): "Alllll right, I'm here, just the way you wanted - butt-naked and run through the wash cycle seventeen times!"

I know what you mean. They would've made a great buddy cop duo in those episodes.
*Asuka jumps a car off a ramp or something equally reckless*
*Shinji groans/mutters a complaint/nearly passes out*
Then Misato chews them out back at the precinct.

I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.
