>>4384423>Intentional on Gendo's part, to make it less likely they would connect and overthrow him?Gendo was using Rei to get what he wanted, but having connection with Shinji, Rei probably awoke Yui's part inside her. Then proceeded to punish Gendo for what He did to Shinji. (Ripping his arm off and devouring him with EVA Unit 01). It was literally Yui that bit off the top half of Gendo.
I still feel bad for Gendo. No matter what he did. Because I see Shinji in his shoes if he chose Rei. He would be going the same path that Gendo went. Directly and indirectly. Because Rei is Yui. And Shinji is just like his father. It would be like another Gendo and Yui.
