>>4385037>Rei lived in her house alone all the time.Wasn't that a hotel? With either modified walls a ceiling or just without any wallpapers. And those metal plates are the base design for the rooms.
>Afterall Rei does not eat meat not for a spiritual reason (like could be for a vegetarian/vegan) but simply because she does not like meat, it taste and texture. Well, the majority of Evangelion revolves around religion. So it could be that maybe Rei wasn't "fasting", but rather Her preference in food was based on fasting. Which is practiced in many religions. Also Rei's schoolgirl organism functions weren't completely explained. She probably ate what was given to Her while She grew up. Also when Gendo invited Rei to eat while She was resting in the tube. The question still stands. What is "getting something to eat". In EoE Rei "consumed" Gendo's right arm. To regrow Her missing limb. I'm guessing She was able to do that any time She wanted. Maybe up until that point when she finally "consumed meat" Rei was running away from Her fate. Doing the opposite of Her nature. Because Her human side possibly disliked Her real nature. Maybe the "human" side of Rei wanted to live like a normal schoolgirl. Somewhat similar to to "The Last Temptation".
