In Ratatouille, Anton Ego (voiced by Peter O’Toole) is an acerbic food critic whose reviews can make or break a restaurant.

Kintaro Oe
Kintaro Oe is the protagonist of the anime/manga series Golden Boy. He is a college dropout who mastered the curriculum of Tokyo University Department of Law and looks for oddjobs in Japan to “study”. Along the way he encounters numerous women whom lust for him, but he chooses to pursue study rather than selfish physical pleadures. Since he goes through many costumes, we will focus on his episode 1 default appearance.
Asuka Langley Soryu
Asuka is one of the two female leads in the anime series Neon Genesis Evangelion, as well as the Rebuild of Evangelion movies (where her last name is changed to Shikinami). Asuka is the Second Child and pilot of Evangelion Unit-02, a teen of mixed heritage who was raised in Germany and is known for her callousness, narcissism and fiery temper. While Asuka may be rough around the edges, it’s actually a facade that she keeps up to hide her insecurities and low self-esteem, a result of an incredibly tragic childhood. As such, Asuka is well-known as one of the codifiers of the “tsundere” archetype, as shown by her interactions with main character Shinji throughout the series.
