PAGE: Rei and Shinji Relationship - looking for feedback
So, in doing a minor edit to Shinji's wiki page, I noticed that there is a severe lack of an important page "Rei and Shinji (Relationship)" It seems hard to believe that there is an in depth discussion on Shinji's relationship with Asuka and Misato, but not about his relationship with Rei, either in the anime or manga. So, I'm hoping to help create the page, but I'm looking for feedback from the forum on what should be included and whatnot, seeing as this is a community project after all.

Voted in college to be Most likely to Take Over the World, how to do that however, will require at least Four Evangelions. Thanks for the idea Misato-san!

I feel like most of their relationship was established immediately before and during the Ramiel episodes, with things staying mostly static afterwards, but then developing more with Rei II realising that she has romantic feelings towards Shinji, and Rei III’s abandonment of Gendo in favour of Shinji.

I would leave mentions of romantic feelings more ambiguos.
I think the same with Rei, but some people might interpret it differently.

Shinji: "Sooner or later I'll be betrayed... And they'll leave me. Still... I want to meet them again, because I believe my feelings at that time were real."
Ryuko: "I'm gonna knock ya on your asses!"
-Asuka: THINK IN GERMAN!!! -Shinji: Öh... Baumkuchen...
Hayashida: "As game developers, our work is special. All of us here can put smiles on very many people's faces with our work."

Yeah, I agree on not giving a clear cut definition to Rei's feelings, even if they do seems quite romantic and maybe sexual.

There should definitely be something there about Shinji experiencing a suppressed oedipus complex, maybe a feeling of needing to protect her because of how much of Yui he subconsciously sees in her.

Thanks everybody for the suggestions. I've begun setting up the page, splitting it between the anime, manga, rebuilds and others works (for video games, other mangas like Raising Project, and the like). Additional feedback and suggestions are welcome
