Rachel K. Clark, also known by the pseud Reichu, is a prominent member of the Neon Genesis Evangelion fandom. Her pseud is derived from a combination of the Japanese pronunciation of her name and that of the Pokémon Raichu.[1]
She was the owner of the website that served as the base for the NGE Fan-Geeks Commentary Project.[2] She then went on to help found Evageeks[3], a website where she also served as a mod for more than a decade. In 2020, she stepped down from her mod role at Evageeks. She said her departure had been in the works for some time, and cited "behind-the-scenes bullshit" and "obstacles of the 'immovable object' variety" in her goodbye message.[4]
Outside of her role as a site maintainer and moderator, she is a fanartist. She is perhaps best known for her works depicting unarmored Evangelion units.[1] As of 2024, she is on X/Twitter as ArqaApocrypha.
