Love this style on Rei. Somehow reminds me her nature.Source is enzojaphet, on IG.
>>4375440Is Rei edited on the painting? Or was She painted with the base of it? Interesting work nonetheless. Just that Rei and the painting feel like two separate "bodies". Guess it's the way the two are drawn and painted.
Big Rei

what kind of music would Rei listen to?
>>4375694I would assume classical. Ludwig van Beethoven and Johann Pachelbel. Same would probably go for Rei's taste in art and books. Dante Alighieri most likely. Just something about the outworldy yet central to the existence and future of mankind. Some would say Bible, but the question would be: "What was The Bible in The World of Evangelion?". An art piece? Or something alike with the "Lost Sea Scrolls" that Seele used as it's own sort of "Bible". A Talmud more likely considering the similarities hidden in plain sight. All those symbols. Evangelion is a mix of things. If We go by religions "Canon", there is none for Evangelion has it's own "Canon". A world of it's own. What is "Holy" and what is "Evil"?. Anno is japanese. He would mix God and the Devil if he wanted. He's not religious. His works have religion in them. That's how close he came to something "Spiritual". By mixing it in entertainment.
Overworking with Rei's theme in headphones hits hard.
>>4377377>OverworkingAre you training or working for wages? Your situation just reminded me of that one /fit/ image of a weight training bench facing a wall that had a Rei poster.Either way, injecting Rei into the bloodstream that is everyday life is only one of the ways that bring out one's inner feelings towards Her. But I guess it matters what is on the inside rather than the outside. I've seen many "hoarders" of Rei merch, but their Faith is as legit as a drunkard's prayer. But the pull towards Rei may vary. Some follow Rei because they have a "bustle in their hedgerow". Some do because of the "attractiveness" of the non-human side of Rei (religious/spiritual pull). I always interpreted that the two original main heroines of Evangelion were two paths for Shinji to go. The red one always felt like what a man would choose. Just by looking at humanity as a whole. The desire towards the sinuous and forbidden even if that desire is covered in thorns. The TV/Movie Shinji never made a move towards any of them. Just interactions.
