Not going into the whole "who is better" but people really ship Shinji with a clone of his own mother or is that like, an ironic thing?

Incest fetishists.
and? that's supposed to be a bad thing?
You mean you dont wanna fuck your 15 year old mom?
I mean...
So, people who like rei are mommyfags?
Rei is the cutest. Also, who cares about incest in this situation?
She's not actually Shinji's mom and Shinji doesn't jnow she's a clone of his mother, so the psychological incest is inexistant.Moreover, she's implied to be sterile, so they can't have children.
Shinji living alone with Rei could have been great. Maybe he would get used to her being naked around him.
she's a clone of his mother? that's pretty wild, i've know about NGE for ages but never looked into it above the surface level so this is pretty surprising
>She's not actually Shinji's mom
On a genetical level, she is
> Shinji doesn't jnow she's a clone of his mother
On a subconscius level he probably associates them
My biggest problem, is Shinji is getting his dad's sloppy seconds.
But hey, if you want a virgin, just head on down to the Reiquarium, fuck til your balls are dry.
>Moreover, she's implied to be sterile, so they can't have children.
That's why threesome end with Asuka or Misato is the best. You get a legal wife and a sexy sister with no competition over inheritance.
>unironically self-inserting
This would explain Asukafag mindset.
Asuka a cute. Besides, girls with mommy or daddy issues fuck like a beast.
I kinda wanna see something where Rei's maternal instincts go into overdrive around shinji
Watch 2.0
Rei is one of the characters who evolves the most throughout Evangelion. She has real character growth, and it's too bad she's been reduced to just an emotionless doll in the collective minds of anime fans.
She begins as a lost girl, suffering from her lack of understanding of who she is and what the world around her is about. She clings to Gendo and piloting the Eva, the only stable, understandable things in her life. But by the end of the series, she's a whole new person. She's understood her nature as the incarnation of Lilith, she's seen and understood what being human means. She could have turned on mankind as a whole for what they did to her as Lilith, but instead she choses to trust Shinji to the very end.
Rei is simply the best.
>I don't understand her character: the post
Lilith, commonly referred to as Rei, is not a good and kind angel. She desires death above everything else and almost wiped out all of her children from existence, only being stopped from doing so because she gave the final choice to one of her own children that she developed feelings for.
Well, all of the eva characters are bad people
My boy Aoba did nothing wrong.
If you want your creator to be kind to you as a species, don't nail it to a cross, tear half of it apart to build a giant robot, rip its soul from its body and put it in an hybrid body that you then use as a child soldier and a replacement wife for a creepy dude who can't deal with his wife's death.
Wait, did someone finish the anime tarot thing?
Good creators don't punish all of humanity for the mistake of a few morons. Rei is inherently a nasty existence, she is Anno's death drive.
Is there any evidence that Rei actually wanted to destroy humanity? As GNR, wasn't she at least partially under the control of Seele due to the Eva series stabbing themselves and making a tree of sephiroth?
Evidences would be her own desire for death, which she can't have because some people don't let her, and her decision to hijack instrumentality for herself. And no, nobody was controlling her. SEELE was after Unit 01 after it consumed Zeruel's core.
Sure, she gave Shinji the final choice but she took no issue in turning everyone into tang.
Funny how Anno TRIED to make her creepy as fuck but it backfired in the most spectacular way imaginable
Actual Eva tarot
Forgot pic
>next EDENREI never ever
Fuck.
She turned them into tang while knowing that Shinji would fix everything in the end.
>knowing that Shinji would fix everything
Is that why the world is still a hellish landscape where the "survivors" suffer greatly while Rei looks over them and laugh?
Give a few centuries and everything will be rebuilt. Humans brought everything onto themselves by messing with Adam, then with Lilith. Even the Angels would have stayed asleep hadn't the second impact woken them. Rei's death is more herself sacrificing her existence to open a new chapter for mankind than anything else, really. There no scenario available that didn't include everyone being tanged and earth being ravaged.
Misato a best, the rest are garbage
>he thinks Rei died
user, I..
>literal used goods
>obsessed with another man
Don't believe anything he says.
The real question is how many times did Gendo smash that puss and when did he start?
Well...I guess mommy knows best
I bet she can suck start a motorcycle.
>Rei's death
Rei/Lilith may no longer exist in a physical form, but she can't truly die.
GNR is physically dead. Rei's soul's survive, but she doesn't have a body anymore.
WRYYYYYY!!!
That just means she's not dead.
Yeah, but without a body to inhabit, she's pretty much only a ghost who can't itneract with anything. How is that different from being dead?
Because being kill is a halting of mind. If the mind can survive the destruction of a body then it isn't dead.
She can still interact with her children, albeit not physically.
Her soul is also where her consciousness is found, where her thoughts run freely. She thinks thus she is.
Made for 14yo dick.
>She thinks thus she is.
deep
Don't ask questions if you don't want answers.
wonder what it would be like to rebuild civilization in that world with half of Rei's face on the horizon.
Nobody would ever have an excuse to be a kissless virgin.
why?
She couldn't have Lilith's soul if she was human, so, she has some of Lilith's DNA for that purpose, hence, she's half sister of Shinji, and so is 100% ok to ship them as incest is wincest
Yui is an asshole.
"Anywhere can be paradise, if you don't like this hellscape then you just don't have the will to live"
You can go make out with that giant Rei's corpse!
It's Anno breaking the fourth wall.
What about Misato?
This why the logical thing is to stay warm and comfy in tang. You can't be a virgin in tang : you are inside all the ladies at once.
It's also the ultimate gay because you're being filled with all men as well. You literally can't be any more gay than tang.
I forget which episode exactly, but there's a moment when Rei is wiping the floor at school. Then Shinji later said she looked motherly while she did that.
It's a small price to pay.
Tang is a world without virgins and without chads. Seele was right all along.
Shinji and Rei are best left as brother/sister.
And Shinji always seems to subconsciously recognize that Rei is more like family to him.
>t. asukanigger
>Asuka is a handholdless virgin
How embarrassing!
>being this much of a virgin
Am I the only one who thinks Rei in genuinely ugly? Her body is nice or whatever but that’s not out of the norm for anime. Her hair and eye combination mixed with her non personality just make her so lame compared to other anime girls.
She is albino, and the pale skin/red eyes will look unhealthy to most.
A lot of people fail to realize how offputting that actually looks because being in anime hides the weirdness.
Why wouldn't you?
This is a blue board user.
The manga make them so damn cute together.
Being a clone of his mother means that Rei is basically Shinji's half-sister. And they do make a cute pair of siblings.
>It's not incest, it's just a clone!
Are you serious?
I'm on ep 4, when does this get good? I've seen the ending, it looks nice.
lurk 100 years before posting
I just pretend she is not a clone
>you have to watch ALL the taiwanese cartoons before you can post on my secret forum
Is Rei actually supposed to have albinism? The only albinistic trait she really has is the red eyes, but that could easily be explained as a side effect of housing an angel's soul. She is pale, but anime girls often are and she's not exceptionally pale.
Albino people don't have light blue hair and can't stand the sun for long whereas Rei can.
That guy is just full of shit.
You had all the time in the world to watch the show or read spoilers before posting your question.
Lurk 1000 years before posting.
His mom's hot though.
I was going to waive the whole blue hair thing because there's no making sense of anime hair, but the sun exposure is a good point.
The way I see it, OP is either under 18, or a normalfag who did a marathon on Netflix.
Probably both, if you ask me.
That's nice. She's still a cardboard cutout of a character with every death resetting her experiences. Yes, by the end of the series she's a whole new person but literally, not figuratively.
If you see her as a tragic figure just remember she was never destined to have anything resembling normal relationships with people because she is part space alien. It's an awful waste but then again what about NERV wasn't a giant waste of time and money
Dear diary, it's 1995+24 and people still don't understand Rei.
If she were a straight up clone of Yui then she'd look exactly like Yui, but she doesn't. There is a strong resemblance but her features are slightly different and obviously her hair and eye colors don't match up. She's probably got one X from Yui and the other from Lilith, making her Shinji's biological half-sister. That wouldn't exactly make a physical relationship between them less taboo but it would remove the Oedipal implications which are often cited as part of their interplay as characters. Instrumentality and global tanging pretty much blows any potential sexual relationship taboos out of the water though, it's literally all humans melding together both physically and mentally in a form of contact exponentially more intimate than sex could be, in the end every single human gets mindfucked.
>Being this much of a roastie
Less faggots, more Rei
it's okay if shinji says "no chromo"
Remember folks, it's Reiwa.
she is still 50% yui and 50% his own genetics it's still gross it's the equivalent to having sex with a step sister because they are only half related to you
Feels implied from Rei and Kaworu.
Not actual albinism, but some angel version of those traits.
Rei has white hair as Lilith and in a few scenes like the end of 2.0. And I feel like if she actually had blue hair everyone should be wondering why the fuck someone has blue hair
stepsisters arent related
twitter.com
Here's your Burger Shinji, bros.
She does look almost exactly like her.
Slightly different features are from age, but otherwise she is a dead ringer for her with a change of color.
Its half-sister.
Though could also be closer to saying if Rei is Yui's twin and Shinji's aunt.
Wider face, larger eyes, smaller lips.
they're both asian user
even if they didn't share genetic material they'd look this much alike
Yeah I don't deny that if they were to bang it would be incestuous in nature, just not Oedipal. Instrumentality handholding is infinitely more lewd though.
Even if it's not incest , her being a clone of his mom makes things just too fucking weird
She's a clone of his mom in the same way that a hypothetical sister would be a clone of his mom. They're a brother and sister pair, not a mother and son pair, so it's not incest and it's not weird.
>It's okay to fuck her , she's not his mom, it's his sister
Imagine self-inserting into Shinji.
Imagine not having an Ego and being unable to love Rei as yourself.
Just fuck and make babies. If it comes out retarded, then breeding was a,bad idea. If it does r, fuck some more.
Welcome to Yea Forums.
Even if she was his mom it would be okay
Didn’t Anno intend for Rei to be off-putting but the Otaku he despises made her into Japan’s number one waifu?
Yes, and?
I got some of that vibe from Rei 01, but every other incarnation of Rei up until Rei Q just come off as mildly autistic or lacking social graces, she still gets angry or smiles or blushes, she's just never as emotive about what she's feeling compared to the other characters. I don't know why Anno thought that would be offputting at all, with just a bit more understanding of how to socialize and some time for more extensive personality development Rei would be a lot of people's ideal wife material. He shouldn't have been surprised that she appealed enormously to Otaku.
it's not that rei is so bad. it's just that Asuka is basically perfect in every way. do you understand reifags?
>abusive whore that lacks an inner voice
>perfect
I must admit, I highly respect men that take the trash so that others don't have to.
Guys please. All of Shinji’s love interests are garbage in their own way. Everyone except Pen Pen is garbage in the series.
Nah, having been around girls with personalities similar to hers I find the experience nothing but exhausting and frustrating, a complete waste of time which could be used for more productive or more enjoyable activities.
Reminder.
she only acts like that because shenji isn't banging her. as soon as he gfs her she will turn into a doll ;^). you obviously don't know women
Well I don't bother with Asuka type women, that's completely true. I prefer reserve and honestly to tsun social games, I'm sure there are guys who love the idea of having to battle a girl just to get close to her but that's not my idea of an enjoyable relationship.
who's soul is in unit-00?
>he doesn't know
Remember Rei I? Remember how when Unit 00 freaked out Ritsuko looked like her mom through its perspective.
Yeah she’s the soul.
>clone of his own mother
All you fags shuddup, Hikari best girl
yeah but how
Good god you're one dense fucker aren't you. Rei isn't human and her soul is fragmented for the majority of the show.
Ritsuko's mom killed Rei 1 and part of her soul went into Unit 00. This is why Unit 00 tries to kill Ritsuko twice.
so rei is dead and shinji never met her? but the problem is that if she's lilith now why does shit still have a boner for gendo? rei II and II shouldn't be anything like and no no connection to shinjis mom or gendo if the real rei was rei I who died and had her soul vacuumed out. rei can't be bothilith and mommy at the same time especially since we already know where his mom's soul is. there doesn't seem to be a logical and well defined answer
Its a clone of his mother with some other genetic information mixed in from Lilith. So technically his sister if you think about it. There's no real difference between taking his mothers cells and mixing in some other info, and the way sperm and egg normally work.
Plus they revealed that Gendo and his wife were saying if they ever had a kid if it was a boy they'd name it shinji and if they had a girl they'd call it Rei. So she is treated in an odd way as his sister maybe.
Because Gendo is a megachad and all the ladies love him
Fuck off retard.
The units can function with fractions of souls, as shown in the case of Asuka's mother going crazy after getting a piece of it in 02.
Presumably some of Anno's insistence that Rei is supposed to be off-putting is because he wanted it to help convey the idea that part of Rei's soul is in 00.
Not that many people who knew/remember Yui are around.
This. Rei is Shinji's sister, not his mother, meaning that Rei x Shinji is not incest.
user...
I see this a lot. why dont you people know you're related to your siblings on both sides (you both have the same mom and dad). you are only partially related to each individual parent
I like Rei more than Asuka but I if it were in my power I'd make Shinji die a virgin.
you're more genetically related to your sister than your mom
>Presumably some of Anno's insistence that Rei is supposed to be off-putting is because he wanted it to help convey the idea that part of Rei's soul is in 00.
but rei II has liliths soul not reis or part of reis
10/10 thread
Mostly because the manga.
Rei make Shinji take the best of himself.
Is the Eva manga worth reading? I want more of this series but I’m not gonna waste my time with trash.
Is that guy who got all smug that Madoka became mobage while EVA did not still here?
How does this make you feel that you will be joining Madoka?
animenewsnetwork.com
I'd replace Shinji with someone who would make sure Rei and Asuka didn't stay virgin.
I'd say not really unless you want to see slightly more Rei since she got a bunch of additional scenes.
While Asuka's character gets sidelined with many scenes removed or shorteded, Kaworu is a kitten murderer, and the manga's ending where it mostly copies EoE then branches away at the last moment is just stupid.
But Eva already had a mobile game?
That’s not Kawrou user. That’s Karl. Big difference.
Shinji can fuck Ramiel for all I care. When I say Rei is best girl, it's because I want to fuck her.
>last few weeks every Eva thread full of Asukafags
>past few days nothing but Rei
It's the perpetual cycle of night and day. One gives birth to the other. We're doomed to repeat it until the end of time.
Hikari.
You think Kaworu had some hand in designing the MP Evas?
>No eyes. They have no use of eyes.
>And give them crimson red number 5. It’ll make their lips pop.
Considering Eva construction was a multi country effort, I kinda wonder how some of the nations/groups working on the MP-Evas reacted when the results of the instructions they were given resulted in those smiling monsters instead of the other robotic exterior Evas.
This is a load of horse shit you swallowed from some faggot with an "epic" 3 paragraph post, stop believing everything anonymous retards type on Yea Forums.
Most likely were given the excuse of “they’re mass produced so the designs have to be simplified.” They probably did wonder about why they needed usable mouths and teeth. But hey, money is money.
Shinji was able to recognize her as mother-like within a few days of knowing her.
Dio could probably escape third impact if we're being realistic. I mean by the time he was a vampire did he even have a soul?
Yes, but not BECAUSE Rei is a clone of her mother.
Yes
Can we get a close-up of Misato's corpse?
as a kid i thought: Misato>Asuka>Rei
but now its: Rei>Misato>Asuka
i wonder why
Rei 2 "appreciates" Gendo
