>>2161517>>That's the problemWhat? That she's badass? And that Shinji totally admires her for it and grown beyond his limits to measure up to her (which is pretty much present in most continuities, if not that openly stated/more subtly done)
That's just called being awesome. And not in any way betrayal.
If you expected Rei to be an submisse unber bottom from hearsay/common misconceptions, than it's you who misunderstood.
She is a stoic warrior poet with a caring, devoted side, although every attempt to do her justice with words beyond those shown in the original series would be incomplete.
