>>3306062>how so? there still people right? Simply you are not Shinji and the girl of your reference is not Rei therefore does not apply in NGE, is it so difficult to understand something so simple?
>it doesn't matter how Rei actually acts its about how shinji perceives it, and we can NEVER truly know that>well you obviously skipped through the whole thing then retardI already gave my reasons based on the canon, you are affirming that Rei is the motherly figure of Shinji only because she is a clone of Yui but you do not explain anything more than that
>no shit that doesn't prove anything on your end. let me break this down for you. I know that shinji was the one that broke Rei of her isolation. you've told me that twice now. i'm saying that it didn't actually need to be shinji, it COULD of have been ANYONE, like misato, kaji, toji, OR even hikari but it just so happened to be shinji because that was how the show was written. so you don't need to say "yeah but shinji did it" because I already know that.I'm not trying to deny this point just as you say Shinji was written to help Rei and not someone else
>>3306073>The anime shows pretty much everything Shinji recalls about his mother and Rei reminds him of.I did not know that a compliment for Rei means that Shinji sees her as a mother...
