Fishing isn't really important.

They are without genitals. Evidence: Adam and Eve both have none when nude, android corpses show none as well. A human corpse that's decayed enough doesn't have genitals either. The corpses in NieR have lost their hair, skin and much of their flesh, so it's not a very good indicator.

During the final dialogue between A2 and 9S we learn that 2B's real designation was 2E. From "Amnesia" side quest we know that "E" stands for "Execution". In this scene there's also mentioned it was very hard for 2B to kill 9S over and over again (A2 points that out and 9S marks it in his thoughts).

7 Jackass

Her name seemingly fitting her personality, Jackass offers assistance to the resistance fighters whilst being quite crass to her subordinates.

6 Anemone

Anemone is the leader of the Resistance group in Nier: Automata, but sadly her role is limited to conversations with the main protagonists from time to time. The actual efforts undertaken by the Resistance group clearly happen off-screen, so the anime would provide a perfect opportunity to show why and how Anemone became the leader.

5 Adam And Eve

These villainous twins are as formidable as they are intimidating, especially when they start trying to understand human concepts such as grief, pain, and death because they have no qualms about hurting 2B and 9S in order to make these discoveries. (Their "birth" is also one of the strangest moments in the game.)

4 Simone

Simone (otherwise known as Beauvior) initially comes across as terrifying, but you eventually learn she's a much more tragic figure. She ends up discovering the concepts of beauty and love, and becomes so determined to please another machine with her appearance that she kills other machines so that she can add them to her body.

3 Devola And Popola

In Nier: Automata, Devola and Popola are technically copies of the original twins, and they live a very miserable existence. They have to undertake the hardest missions for the resistance camp and are treated with almost no respect. What makes it worse is that they feel like they deserve to be punished like this.

2 Pascal

The leader of the peaceful machine village, Pascal is an integral part of the main plot, especially during A2's campaign. The anime could take some time to explore when Pascal broke free from the machine network, and also how he started to build his village with the other peaceful machines.

1 Emil

This is the same Emil as appears in the original Nier, only now he's just a grinning robot head operating a cart. He's easily the strangest character in the game, and also the hardest boss to fight, even when you're at a high level.

Featured DLC

The NieR: Automata 3C3C1D119440927 DLC is out now and includes three new colosseums to challenge, plus additional sub-quests.
