I know but thread 79 didn't quote thread 78 so I just stopped there because I'm lazy.

I'm so in love with her and no one wants to hear about it
>>2640412
>Like its1999
My first memory of evangelion was in a magazine called club nintendo in Mexico. I was visiting my grandparents when i was a kid, in the fan art section some kid drew a really good picture of rei. Then in 05 i watched it on adult swim

What would a NGE/Seinfeld crossover look like?
>>2640575
Rei tangs everyone in the first 5 minutes. The rest of the season is her exploring the now barren NYC, and occasionally stopping to pose suggestively before a title card. 10/10 show of the decade.
>>2640579
THE PEOPLE DEMAND THIS
>eva was set in 2015
>it's 2016 now
>rei is 15
>>2640646
You didn't realize this on her birthday? Or on January 1st?
>>2640568
It's funny, fan art (by a schoolmate) was what originally drew me in too. Also, a teacher gave me a poster of Rei she had in her classroom when she saw me drawing her. Rei and Eva have a weird way to show up in my life when I don't expect it.
>>2640579
It'd be a show about returning to nothing...
21 years.

>>2640524
I leave there for nostalgia purposes
>>2640727
I only just realized it. I'm pretty dumb to be honest family.
>>2640747
three more years and our love for rei won't have to be slightly creepy anymore.
>>2640749
She'll be 14 in my heart. I'm satisfied with that.
>>2640749
14 is legal here but I like my girls ridiculously overdeveloped to the point where they sweat estrogen.
Good job Rei is exactly that.
>>2640954
Same here, but it would still freak people out, besides, it's not about that I just love Rei.
>>2640965
It doesn't look like Rei at all but apparently she's supposed to be... Maybe as a grown up, with different haircut and dyed hair.
>>2640954
Why doesn't Rei use her angel powers to give herself DD cups?
>>2641074
>implying she isn't
>>2640747
Your pic is funny
>>2641084
I thought DD was meant to be huge?
>>2641484
>sluty Rei
>>2641475
On that thread it was determined that there's no such thing as a single DD cup size in the first place, it's all relative to band size. And the really huge sizes are beyond DD.
>>2641484
I need a haircut already, why can't I get one from Rei?
>>2641531
Neat.
>>2641531
What volume is a 28DD cup then?
>>2641475
cups are calculated related to how big /wide you are.
And sonsidering that Rei is thin as a stick (and unnaturally elongated) then apple sized titties look big on her slender body.
>>2640436
Pretty good images
>>2640412
>What's the deal with Human Instrumentality?
>>2641664
I wouldn't know about volume, but cup size is determined by the difference between band size and bust size, each additional inch that bust size has over band size is an additional cup size (which is why in absolute terms two people with DDs could have vastly different boob volumes as >>2641890 says, it doesn't take much for tiny Rei to get to DD), and of course all this is with the caveat that this varies by country and brand. ISO should get on it.
>>2641987
Read it in his voice.
>>2641990
Read it on hers immigrating his. I want to see Rei doing stand-up now.

Would you go innawoods with Rei?
>>2642483
Yes
>>2642483
Have the original version of that image.
And yes.
>>2642483
When the question is in tehe form of "Would you ___ with Rei" the answer almost every single time would be yes.
an easy one
Would you cuddle Rei?
>>2642483
>>2643150
I would innawoods with Rei and cuddle there, how about that?
Even more appropriate pic
Anyway, this pic got me thinking, what would god mode Rei even do for fun?
>>2643183
>fun
Implying "fun" is a concept
>>2642483
The whole "innawoods" thing is stupid if you ask me, but sure.
>>2643457
don't take the innawoods thing seriously
>>2642483
Rei is trained, she is a good partner for it
and she is Rei anyway
>>2643509
It's a /k/ survivalist / bug off in case of gubmint takeover thing, right?
The gubbamint is already in control...
>>2643511
Yes I think, it's fun to imagine it though
>tfw there won't be anything new and honestly good with Rei ever again
I hope Anno steps on legos.
>>2643521
She's always had a terrible father that just used her for his own means, It's up to us to make Rei great again.
>>2643556
We could start by slipping Legos into Anno's house.
>>2643574
Emotional pain is more effective, somebody should bite the bullet and seduce Ikuhara, assassinate Moyoco Anno and get Miyasaki to mock him.
>>2643641
While Anno deserves that sort of thing, the others around him don't.
>>2643641
>>2643669
That said, it doesn't exactly stop me from fantasizing about it.
Yes I know that's bad.
>>2643556
>It's up to us to make Rei great again.
Not posting the pic.
>>2643669
Ikuhara deserves it, after all the shit he said about Rei
>>2643927
Not bad.
Back just in time to save the thread from page 10.
I love you, /rei/!
>>2643517
Innawoods with Rei would be great.
>>2640965
She remind me of Ayase Kishimoto
>>2643927
I see what you did there
Anyone have the picture with Moby posing with the Rei statue?
>>2645189
Something wrong, anon?
>>2645148
I want to kiss this Rei.
In fact I want to kiss all Reis.
>>2645247
The artist draws Rei Q. That puts him on the "list".
>>2645157
Rei in pigtails and overalls is so great, wish she had her regular hair color though almost feels like a different person with that many changes at the same time.
>>2645265
too bad about that.
Posting more Rei

p....please
>>2645689
I do but you'll have to convince me to spend the 2+ hours it will take to find it with some Rei.
>>2645706
I have it as well, going to spend time finding it.
>>2645706

Never smoked weed before, but sure.

How many Rei's could you hug in one minute?
>>2645774
One, the whole time.

>>2645774
Just the only Rei.
>>2645774
>implying you could prize me away from a rei clone hug orgy after just 1 minute
Sometimes I think about just how much I love her, and I get a weird feeling in my chest and stomach.
Rei loves you back, no matter what.
>>2646363
Flutters in your heart and stomach are a symptom of love sickness.

It is said that the thing you truly believe about the afterlife becomes real for a time when you die. Christians temporarily go to heaven, atheists see empty blackness and so on.
Maybe if you believe hard enough you can be with rei in death.
>>2646446
Don't kill yourselves by the way. Life is worth living yet! Do it for her! She'd want you to be happy in this life!
>>2646446
>atheists see empty blackness
>Christians get heaven for a moment
I better stick with some sort of faith to just at least go down blissfully then; get a brief moment of Rei in my life.
>>2646434
It's strange that it is possible to get this from a fictional character. I guess Rei is just that amazing.
>>2641537
She might stab you.
>>2646585
Why would she?

Sailor Mercury does remind me a lot of Rei
>>2648426
Fuck off.
>>2646875
You looked at an Asuka thread once.
>>2648426
Ami was my first anime crush when I was little, and might have prepped me for weakness for short blue haired girls. It even got me to talk to and date a girl just because she went by a similar name.
But Rei's another thing, Rei's transcendent. I'd probably make some pretty dumb life choices if Rei was a common girl's name.
>>2648432
Rei loves everyone, even Asuka (and even though she makes it pretty damn hard).
>>2646418
>Rei loves you back, no matter what.
No she doesn't.
>>2648426
sailor mars name is literally rei, and I think inspired anno to name our ayanami-san
>>2648447
ami is objectively the best sailor
>tfw only one single episode with just usagi and ami
>>2648582
>sailor mars name is literally rei, and I think inspired anno to name our ayanami-san
I believe in one of interviews they said that Rei was originally inspired by sailor Mercury
>>2648582
They named her after Rei Hino since they wanted Michie Tomizawa to voice her initially.
It also ties in with her character since Rei can mean both soul and zero.
>>2648791
In manga there was Sadamoto's interview that he came up with Rei after listening to something like "A girl all white from bandages"
>>2648582
>>2648726
>>2648791
>>2648794
None of these character origins really conflict with each other; a character is built of several parts:
Rei's name comes from Rei Hino because of a lobbying effort. Her look comes from Sadamoto, her behavior comes from a part of Anno that he probably hates, And then there's her 'character' and who knows where that comes from because it doesn't seem to be something they intended and been trying to undo it ever since. It's a classic case of 'the character took a life of her own'.
I think the similarities with Ami Mizuno are just coincidental because I don't remember seeing anything about her being an inspiration but I could be wrong.
The world is ours. Rei is best girl.
>>2648901
Get outta here with that shit, man.

It's her world, we just live in it.

>>2650023
Yep
I am watching Eva for the first time right now and until now she seems kinda creepy.
Episode 6.
>>2650264
You'll find that Rei is a lot more than just "cute".
>>2650267
I hope so because I really like her design and the fanart. A slow character developement better anyway.
Also this show is pretty old and there are still people waifuing her, pretty promising.
>>2650264
she warms up a bit later on
I hope you're watching the dub anon-san
>>2650288
The german dub? The english sub? I tried them both, they don't really make a difference.
>>2650288
Sorry for getting topical, I don't even like Trump but still think it's funny.
>>2650288
Why the dub? Why would anyone watch any dub?
>>2650288
>I hope you're watching the dub
Yeah, not having Megumi Hayashibara ingrained in your soul as Rei's voice is blasphemous.
>>2650353
True
>>2650353
Call me cynical, but I don't really care that much about Megumi Hayashibara considering she willingly participated in 3.0 and didn't voice anything about it.
>>2650336
because amanda's rei is cuter of course~~
I don't know why people have so many misgivings about it, even after listening to both, the english somehow seems more right to me. I believe in the characters more.
>>2650451
You have a poor opinion.
>>2650353
she is ranma in my heart
>>2650451
>>2650455
To be honest I don't even really care about the voice actors. They aren't what make the character.
Both Megumi and Amanda did a great job.
I think we have to face that we have a problem with Rei's voice actors. We've been through two english voice actors for Rei, because the situation is far too hostile for the role.
Someone like Brina Palencia was promised more or less the greatest role in anime science fiction, and look at how that turned out with Rebuild. I don't think she gives a crap about the character, but as a strong role she got bummed. In the future, no one is going to congratulate the voice actor for Rei on landing the role because it's obvious by now that Anno is a cunt who hates Rei.
I don't think Megumi or anyone else cares either. Because honestly if she did, we'd have heard something about the situation already. Amanda didn't return, for understandable reasons. The western/american fanbase gave her a rough time and she ran away.
If Rei had no voice but subtitles, I'd be perfectly fine.
>>2650787
2cute4me
>>2650918
For me Megumi's voice is Rei's voice.
And i'm very sensitive to Rei's voice.
>Omedetou
Is still ringing in my ears if i think about it, and then "Kissu" from ARP makes my hear race crazy.
There are many voices, but Rei's voice is one special.
>>2650918
>I don't think Megumi or anyone else cares either.
Mugumi was always saying that she cares a lot and loves Rei a lot.
She also said she was kept in the dark about 3.33 until the movie came out.
She had no idea what she was voicing.
>>2650999
even if she dislikes it in private she's not going to publically bite the hand that feeds, that'd be stupid
>>2651004
If she had any love for Rei, she would. Her silence is proof.
>>2651005
>>2651004
So hear this:
Fuck Megumi Hayashibara. Right now I have more respect for her english counterpart. I think I'd be more happy with future Evangelion installments if there was no voice and only subtitles.
>>2651010
>Fuck Megumi Hayashibara
hey now. even as the guy who prefers amanda, that's uncalled for! megumi didn't do anything wrong. she just isn't exactly as good to my ears
>>2650918
I disagree on your take on Megumi, like >>2651004 says, it's hard to bite the hand that feeds you. All actors do that, even if they end up in the shittiest reviewed movie they try to find the silver lining. Specially since it might not be just a profesional relationship but actual friendships considering how long they been at it.
As for the art, the head just needs to have similar shading and highlights at the body and that would look fantastic.
>>2651022
She did do something wrong. She participated in a project she didn't need to participate in. There'd be no stronger statement than Megumi refusing to voice Rei Q, but yet she did anyway, and didn't say a word about it. She just complied.
She deserves the hate, and if you haven't noticed, she gets literally no praise for her role.
>>2651028
>I disagree on your take on Megumi, like >>2651004 says, it's hard to bite the hand that feeds you.
To which my reply was, if she actually did like Rei and respect the character whose legacy she gained from and helped create, she'd have gone out and said something. She's no doubt boosted her own singing career by standing on the shoulders of Rei, and this is how much she actually cares.
>All actors do that, even if they end up in the shittiest reviewed movie they try to find the silver lining. Specially since it might not be just a profesional relationship but actual friendships considering how long they been at it.
No. Actors with integrity often speak out against movies they thought sucked. Natalie Portman spoke out against her role in Star Wars, claiming that it even damaged her career. There's many actors, even writers who when asked, can't say they were happy with the movie they worked on.
But Megumi has kept her trap shut, and for that she deserves the hate.
So you KNOW I'm right. Megumi failed Rei Ayanami and she failed the fans of the character. She let the character to rot and you should all blame her for it.
>>2651048
I think you're just psychotic.
>>2651063
I think I'm well in contact with reality. I expect more from someone who allegedly likes Rei a lot.
It's entirely reasonably. If she actually cared, she'd join the rest who also dislike what's going on. But she didn't, even after three years. When 1.0 came out, Megumi spoke thus, paraphrased:
"I was happy to voice Rei again, because previous things I had done never felt like Rei. When I was back in voicing those old lines, I felt like I was back."
Not speaking out against 3.33 is definitely proof that she doesn't care about anything than promoting the current thing to sell.
>>2651069
>Not speaking out against 3.33 is definitely proof that she doesn't care about anything than promoting the current thing to sell.
this I agree, which is why I don't find her as objectionable as the rest, it's different than being openly hostile to the character as others are. I feel that not caring as deeply for the character is more forgivable.
>>2651077
The others aren't openly hostile to characters, not their own either. They have interest and for the central characters actually get in the mood to even RP them and whatnot. Just selling I guess, but compare that to Megumi.
Let's move on from polemic and let's all love Rei.
Didn't realize the thread is maxed out, and I'm beat, I'll let somebody else start the next one.
