She also has high respect and obedience for the chain of command and rarely questions her orders, unlike her partner 9S. She also doesn't mind running errands for the Resistance, saying that they help with their mission and believing it to be better than constantly being in combat, as that has an increased chance in dying. She is also very logical and professional, frequently saying that feelings are prohibited. However, 2B occasionally expresses a notably sardonic wit in the face of certain situations and at times, she can be hot-headed. She is often sarcastic, particularly towards Pod 042 due to his tendency to point out the obvious.However, 2B is a very kind person deep down. She cares a great deal for her friends, petting her Pod as though it were a pet and going so far as to find a picture of a flower for Operator 6O. She is also very respectful towards others' wishes; when she and 9S are searching for the memories of an android with amnesia via going to places 9S wonders what's so important about them. 2B merely states that the memories are important to her and that's all that matters. In addition, despite her professional nature, 2B dislikes 9S calling her "ma'm" describing it as "unnecessary." Her cold and aloof exterior is largely out of necessity, as her defence mechanism for the horrors of life and the reality of her programming.

Alice in Kyoto Forest GN 1

We can tell very quickly that she's no longer in our world, not just because most of the people are gadding about in kimono and hand-drawn carts, but because the tails that some people have are clearly not a fashion accessory.

Waifu Watching: What I've Learned from Joining a VTuber's Pack

You'd be surprised at the kinds of people you'd meet in these kinds of circles. In my time, I've met electricians, veterans, geologists, musicians. There are also people old enough to have watched Max Headroom back when it was new.

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.
