Shinji is largely passive and unassertive, Shinji's approach to life is to avoid all things physically and emotionally painful. He has little to no sense of self-worth, berates himself often, and apologizes frequently. This stems from his childhood, where he lost his mother, Yui Ikari, and was abandoned by his father, Gendo Ikari, shortly after. Because of this and several other instances of rejection throughout his life, Shinji has a deeply rooted fear of rejection and abandonment. In order to get by in life, Shinji has a tendency to simply do as he is told to do by others without questioning it. At least for the first half of his story, most of what he does is because he was instructed by others to do it. He has been playing the cello since he was five years old, but only began lessons because his teacher instructed him to, and kept playing only because no one ever told him to stop. Later, he left Misato's apartment with Hibiki and Pen-Pen simply because of the societal norm that all children of at least ten years old have Pokémon of their own, but had no intention of taking on Sinnoh's Gym challenge. He only started collecting badges after persuasion by Hikari and Asuka.When provoked, Shinji can be emotionally extreme, prone to breakdowns and irrational anger. Where he might otherwise be cautious, he may act rashly and impulsively, or make accusations toward the other party. He also has some blunt and sarcastic tendencies towards those he has opened up to (for example, Misato, in regards to her less than tidy lifestyle). Above all else, Shinji desires acceptance and validation from others in his life, and will act however he believes he must in order to obtain it. In doing this, he tends to act primarily in his own interests above those of others. However, when someone has gained his trust, he is capable of being kind and gentle to those people.
