Consummate Professional: Even the Commander isn't as strict about the "emotions are prohibited" rule as her.Before she succumbs to it she asks A2 to mercy kill her. The Corruption: 2B falls victim via the Logic Virus in Route C/D, but she survives longer than most.In addition, she is female and aware that she is artificial but not that her purpose has been long rendered moot, where the two Niers were male and believed themselves to be human even as they wiped out the remnants of real humans. Thus, she is stoic and cool to their emotional outbursts, and maintains an indifference toward her machine opponents where they were fueled by genocidal hatred for Shades. Contrasting Sequel Main Character: Unlike Nier, she isn't struggling for the sake of a close relative she's only fulfilling her purpose.Combat Stilettos: Being an advanced robot with incredible balancing programs, she's far more capable of running, leaping and doing battle in heels than any human.It is even possible for the player inflict damage to her clothes using "Self Destruction" mode. Clothing Damage: Depending on how much damage she takes, 2B will lose her skirt and show a white Leotard of Power.He gets flustered and denies it, leading her to respond with a nonchalant "Whatever."

Sadly, 2B's death comes shortly after the destruction of the Bunker, with A2 and 9S following suit by Ending C/D. However, the Bunker is then destroyed, and all death from there is permanent. Back from the Dead: It started as Death Is Cheap like the other androids, when she dies, which she does with 9S in the opening mission, her memory files are re-uploaded into a back-up body in the Bunker.

Finishing the game then unlocks two of these suits as key items to change her appearance during replays at will, but again it's just cosmetic. Armor Is Useless: She gets to wear a suit of heavy Powered Armor at the beginning of Route C that doesn't affect her hit points or general survivability at all.All for Nothing: All things considered, it's probably for the best that she dies before she finds out that humanity has been extinct for thousands of years and all those times she killed 9S were completely pointless.Action Girl: As a YoRHa unit, she is perfectly capable of combat against machine lifeforms.2 Type B" (or 2B for short) made by humans.
