>>4051242Despite being an artificial human, Rei's story is about finding her humanity and defying her creators. Of course she will struggle at first, remain cold, distant and won't have a past. But even if you want to paint her as just a plot device and view her as a mere tool, that 10% humanity that you arbitrarily gave her is what their entire world depends on. The story lives or dies on whether Rei can find and connect with her human side or not. So ultimately what's the point of trying to paint her as an inhuman plot device? You are just undermining your own demeaning intentions and making her growth as human being even more impactful and important. Your picture is just saying that despite Rei allegedly being this inhuman plot-device, she was still able to connect with and find her humanity and save the EVA world. Ultimately, You are just making her miracle even more significant and awe inspiring, so guess thank you for your efforts but it's unnecessary. Her original story without petty distortions is more than enough.
