does anyone know why he freaks out during instrumetallity during the end of evangelion. why doesn't Rei lure him like she did with every one else. just want to know if there's a specific reason to this.

In order to get everyone to lower their AT Field, Rei/Lilith takes the form of whoever they desire most. Hyuga sees Misato, Maya sees Ritsuko, Gendo sees Yui....since Aoba saw nothing except terrifying Rei's, I'm led to believe he didn't truly care for anyone.

I suspect he made inappropriate use of the dummy plug room to go bobbing for Reis... but being a sarcastic, cynical bastard with no strong feelings for anyone but himself works too.

Supposedly Aoba is Nihilist which has to do with why he saw the Rei guides for what they really were. Still not sure where that claim is from, but it's something.

THAT, would have let me die a happy man.

It would just be too funny to see Aoba smile and hug himself and whisper "Damn you look good."

I would have laughed if he saw Gendo or Kaji. The secret love that's never known....

That's too good.

I was hoping Rei turn into Gay Plot Device, just for the hell of it.

Don't know why but I settled for the fact that he wants all the attention from the ladies, but he doesn't know what to do when said ladies actually turn to him... looks like he's got a panic attack due to either agoraphobia or social anxiety.

I think that we see Rei's instead of a lot of women (or even men too, dunno) simply because he himself didn't look. He was the only one who didn't.

Instead, Rei got arse.
