>>3179319>I did not disprove or try to disprove that fact, but I did prove that you had no point with that fact.So it is a fact then? The point was we learn more about Rei in 25/26 than we do in EoE. This is one of the reasons EoE sucks because it reduces Rei to a plot device in comparison.
>Irrelevant, and not an argument. False even. A strawman even. Who said these things were positive?You wrote that EoE had a positive and conclusive end here
>>3178736>The dialogue in the film is positive towards the end, not negative - that everyone will come back and live again, and that everyone can be paradise if people can find the will to live.Yeah, after Shinji gets the pep talk from Yui he goes and strangles Asuka. I thought that was the point: even after everything Shinji is still Shinji and by extension we're still flawed people.
>This isn't an argument, it's a contextless statement that makes no sense.>To make it clear for all to see, the difference is vast and can be elaborated on for a long time, but I'll make an effort to distill it down to two points:>[examples of avatars]The context was you were making a distinction between Rei and avatars of Rei. I don't see the distinction between vandalising Rei or avatars of Rei, it's still vandalism. You're the first person I've seen argue the case for Rei being mutilated as empowering so omedetou.
>If you want to claim that EoE is somehow trying to do is bring Rei down into the mud - then what exactly did it do to Misato? Gendo? Asuka? Ritsuko?I don't come to the Rei thread to talk about other characters. Anyway, I'm tired of reading I'm a liar for the 50th time so this conversation is over. Sorry to everyone for the walls of text.
