What kind of character development is this?
Pretty good one
Shit-tier

At least it's better than having her hair cut short.
>>151436977
An unironically good one. She has a clear motivation and values that track believably from her background as it's uncovered and just as believably lead her to ruin.
>>151437445
The really sad part is that she's actively asking Shinji for help in EoE and he doesn't make it on time.
AND NOW I'VE LOST IT
>>151437502
After all the shit she's done, she deserves it. Fucking cunt.
>>151437502
He does in the manga, I guess Yui was feeling more in a break-the-Bakelite mood.
>>151437502
He was set up for failure in advance. That's what happens when you've got shitty parents.
>>151437679
Not that it matters cause she ends up dying anyway
>>151437892
>It's Kaji
Being Shinji is suffering.
>>151438085
What does that have to do with Shinji?
>>151437892
>>151437892
She gets better. Manga ending is superior except for Rei not coming back. Manga Rei was based. Actually, everyone in the manga was better, except for Gendo (who lost any sympathetic points) and Kaworu (who acts like a sociopath).
>>151438085
Heheld handswith Rei, Asuka was too pure for him anyway.
>>151438250
the manga is worse than the TV show/EoE in literally everything
>>151438096
It's just a bit sad that even with a big damn hero moment and saving someone's life, Shinji still was not connected enough to anyone else in the world to appear as their Tang Jesus.
>>151438314
he was connected enough to rei for her to let him literally decide the fate of humankind
>>151438314
He probably would have been Rei's, considering he was the first person to ever care about her just for being herself.
>>151438314
>even with a big damn hero moment
>Tvtropes terms
No. Not on this board
>H-how'd you recognize it then, you autist
I was young once, until I outgrew the website. Now leave.
>>151436977
Teenagers are not suposed to be wapons, they have to be raisen to be wapons.
Aparently MARDUK needs not just teenagers but teenagers with a tragic history easyer to break,
That is suposed to be the trainment maybe.
>>151438472
>"i outgrew the website"
>literally telling other people to 'leave' an anonymous internet imageboard
>>151438417
The second Rei saw Gendo as her last vision before dying, not Shinji. The third Rei couln't care less about any of them.
>>151438482
>wapons
>easyer
>trainment
>>151438085
Pretty much, he straight chooses the concept of suffering itself over nothing or anything else. But it's manga so Rei's a close second place.
>>151438541
>Autistically throws tvtropes around like people understand what he's saying
>Bewildered when told to leave
You're lowering the level of discussion. So yes, I'm telling you to leave.
>>151438549
Yeah, because the Commander was her father figure. Besides, she was going to blow herself up for Shinji, and we have the Armisael corrupted part attempting to merge with Shinji with Rei wondering if that's her real desire. At that point, you don't really need to give Shinji the "last person you see" thing, we already know she cares about him.
Third Rei started Instrumentality for Shinji, stating that Shinji was calling her and seemingly planning on spending the rest of eternity with him in the world of Instrumentality.
>>151438611
you assume two different posts are made by the same person in an, once again, anonymous website
>>151438472
I assumed "Tang Jesus" was another one and it was blatant bait.
>>151438641
Nice try. We both know they were.
>>151438673

I'm not here to entertain you. I'm here to tell you to fuck off.
>>151438796
Sorry you became a casualty. After japmoot opened /trash/ as a place for off topic threads to go without getting deleted, the worst kinds of people saw it as them finally getting a board and took residence.
>>151438617
> Third Rei started Instrumentality for Shinji
I would argue that her primary motivation there was to cuck Gendo out of instrumentality for using her as a tool. She chose Shinji merely because she knew the previous Rei had sacrificed herself for him. The third Rei herself talked to Shinji like 2 times total, she didn't know him as a person, let alone loved him. She just assumed he was a good match for her because the second Rei felt that way.
>>151438867
i thought you wanted to raise the level of discussion
yet you have not posted a single word related to the topic in this thread
>>151438748
I genuinely can't tell if he does or doesn't know that he's acting like a dick. Because he acts like a dick. He snaps some kitten's neck "because it's more merciful then letting it live", calls Rei stupid for sacrificing herself right in front of a heartbroken Shinji (who then proceeds to punch him)...man.
>>151438875
It depends on which version you're looking at, really. Manga version has it definitely be that Rei III (who has the same memories as Rei II apparently, given her talk with Shinji) cares about Shinji, while EoE is more ambiguous.
>>151438875
the rei clones are all the same soul
>>151438943
He doesn't know.
In the Manga, Kaworu is three days old and naive about literally everything.
He's so autistic it's actually kind of funny.
>>151438867
The worst part is mods now delete jokes and memes by the numbers. I've seen so much moderation the last 3 days. And in the hundreds of posts that disappeared like the ghost of christmas past I've only seen one that was a personal attack.
So making an ironic thread or a general, or simply making fun of the anon above you is off limits now, but for some reason posting horse cock or horse inflation isn't.
>>151438617
>planning on spending the rest of eternity with him in the world of Instrumentality
She does that anyway. She has his whole life to flip through.
>>151438348
Literally true because he was in sitting in EVA-01 when it got stigmata'd, but I guess I didn't phrase it quite correctly. I don't think Rei-III giving Shinji that authority was due to any kind of significant interpersonal connection between them, but rather because of circumstances and aversion to Gendo's plan. If something more is implied, it seemed ambiguous to me.
>>151438656
I actually pulled Tang Jesus out of my assasspullwhen writing my post, but may have heard it before somewhere.
>>151438673
Nope, that's a different anon replying to you. I was more bemused than offended and wasn't going to otherwise bother replying. Happy holidays, anon-kun.
>>151439011
> the rei clones are all the same soul
Soul isn't the same as mind in eva, though. There's no indication that memories are stored in the soul, in fact, Rei III does NOT remember the Armisael fight and doesn't share Rei II's affection for Gendo either.
>>151439138
>because he was in sitting in EVA-01
this is pretty irrelevant. gendo was going to be the decider and he was as far away from that position as you could be. lilith could have simply chosen nobody and just done the deal as the advanced lifeform she is, but she decided to let shinji be god.
Shinji is unneccessary.
>>151439172
Lilith only hears Shinji's wish because of where he's sitting when GNR/EVA-01 merge. Gendo didn't need that because he had worked to make sure Rei-III/Lilith would hear his. Still, you raise a good point regarding Lilith granting Shinji's wish over ignoring it.
If the reason that Rei-III/Lilith chose to grant Shinji's wish was due to a deeper connection to Shinji, where did it come from? Maybe I'm missing something, but if we exclude Yui and Rei-II's memories, I'm just not sure where Rei-III/Lilith would be drawing that from.
>>151439645
Her conscious memories are scrambled, her feelings persist. She got mad at glasses, started crying out of nowhere, and didn't know what the fuck.

Thank you
>>151439645
i already said it
all rei clones are the same soul. the events only unfold like they do because of shinji's connection with rei ii. it's also the most coherent thing from a storytelling and character standpoint, regardless of the plot mechanics
Reminder that Shinji is canonicaly heterosexual.
>Speaking about the blushing, is it because Shinji was happy that someone said they like him?
>Anno: Yes, Shinji-kun really didn't experience carnal desire there *laugh*.
Confirmed by Anno himself.
