This is some ridiculous bullshit. I just rewatched 3.33 and it's obvious to anyone who isn't totally special ed that Rei was speaking only to Shinji and nobody else heard it, making it pretty fair to assume that it was telepathy.
Does that make her Rei 100%? No. But it does mean that part of our original Rei is inside of Q, without question. She is no less and no more Rei than Rei II or Rei III. Just because she's lost more memories doesn't make her "not Rei." It's sort of disgusting that you guys are so adamant about your refusal to accept one specific Rei as not Rei. Saying Q is Rei is equivalent to saying any version of Rei after the original is not Rei, therefore Rei II and Rei III are not Rei, either.
You're all so hung up on hating Asuka that you refuse to love Rei; it's sad.
