This is from a very brief sequence in EoE, where we see the Reiquarium - only the heads morph into Shinji's.

Combine that with the fact that when Rei asks "what is it you wish for?" the background behind the delirious Ikari-kun is a woman's upper torso, and you might draw some interesting conclusions.

Shinji with boobs....*giggles.
Does anyone have any clue as to the signfigance of this shot? What exactly do you all think it was meant to convey? Shinji projecting himself onto Rei because of their similarly recluse personalities, or Shinji's desire to be loved by his father who payed attention (not loved) Rei instead?

What they said; a funny misconception.

:shock: Yes, a very... disturbing scene, to say the least. :shock:

This was presented a while ago to an equally shocked Evamonkey forum community. Check it out if you want to read some fans responding to some good old-fashioned Eva mind screwing:

http://evageeks.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=210

I believe this post from that thread sums it up perfectly:

Well, it's already been established that Shinji has no balls, so perhaps this revelation isn't as radical as it may appear.

I remember this and reading in, I think it was here, about what it means if you dream of yourself as being a member of the opposite sex. However, I... can't remember what it said! It may not apply to this anyway.

Rei was the dummy plug template, her clones were supposed to be cloned in the dummy system. perhaps Shinji was originally attempted to be the dummy plug template, and he was cloned and dumped in the system instead...

While I like Ayanami the fifth's theory I always thought it was symbolic of Shinji's mental state. He feels just like Rei by this point in the film. (if not much earlier)

A tool, A souless doll Gendo needs for his goals. There are many macabre symbols in EoE but that shot right there (as well as any other of the shots featuring the Rei tank) never ceases to give me the chills.
I asked "And where would you take me?"
At this the beast laughed, tears made of my mother's blood leaked from his eyes.
"I will take you to every place you never wanted to be, and you will hate it."
"Then I will take you to every place you've already been, and you will hate that also."

As I recall, x part of Yui's DNA has been used to clone Ayanami, which means that Shinji and Ayanami are at least half-brothers/sisters of each other (how surprising!!!). And maybe Shinji had a premonition that Ayanami is his sister, and maybe this caused those Ayanami heads turn into Shinji heads. Maybe...

EDIT:
On second thought, the Shinji on the lower right corner reminds me of Gollum...

BUMPED FOR GREAT JUSTICE! ^_^

My theory: the shot symbolizes Shinji's "feminine" behavior as opposed to acting more like a stereotypical man. "You're a man, aren't you?" "Pathetic! There's nothing worse than a housebroken male!", etc, etc, *shrugs*

What does that have to do with the actual context, though?

It doesn't explain anything if it doesn't take the context into consideration. This panning shot of Rei heads morphing into Shinji heads doesn't occur in a vacuum.
