*Her second remodel represents her performance during her final mission, a night battle where she formed a single 'prong' of a three-pronged attack alone (other prongs each contained a light cruiser and multiple destroyers), sank (or helped sink) three destroyers, heavily damaged a fourth, and assisted [[Kirishima]] in trading fire with a battleship, the ''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_South_Dakota_(BB-57) USS South Dakota]''.

**In the ''Rebuild'' movies, Rei's family name formed a trifecta with Mari Illustrious ''[[wikipedia:Japanese_destroyer_Makinami_%281942%29|Makinami]]'' and Asuka Langley ''[[Shikinami]]''; they are all Evangelion pilots named after IJN destroyers. Asuka's name in the series was Asuka Langley [[Souryuu]], and it's possible that her name was changed to make her fit the theme naming.
