It really says something Shiro Sagisu. His music in Evangelion was able to capture the essence of somber human emotion. Helping base the theme's concepts of nothingness and isolation. And to the message to the Japanese people about the dangers of isolating themselves from each other.
This is true... People who hate her always say the same thing : "She has no emotions and no personality" but that's just false, she is not very expressive but she showed her emotions a lot of times. Some people hate her only because "she isn't even completely human" but not being completely human doesn't make her a bad character, that makes no sense...
Spoilers. I keep on overanalyzing the part with her at the window in the opening. Waving through a window is a common expression for someone who is always on the outside looking in and is never fully connected with others. Rei looks like she's about to knock on it, like she wants others to see her as an equal and connect with others instead of a servant or an extension of Gendo, but she doesn't know how. So she stays in her current position, at least until she finally decides to break away from Gendo and become her own world-ending being. She reunites with Lillith, who I've read that her soul is from, freeing them both from the things that used to bind them, and doing what she wanted, which was help Shinji end the world. And then help him unend it. Unfortunately Rei II never got to experience this freedom. She only got to realize that she wanted to be with Shinji before getting blown up, unlike Rei III who got to revenge (murder?) Gendo.
@@lautarodelrio3257 i woudl think the same thing but i feel like rei series share the same memories/feeling that linger if they arr not rei. 3 would not gave a shit to shinji
Of all the Rei’s only Rei 2 achieved the gift of self awareness to become her own person. It was a tragedy when she sacrificed herself. Rei 3 never got that back, it was a unique and special thing.
Rei siempre fue la más interesante, me mató cuando descubrieron todo sobre su origen, un personaje tan bueno, resultó ser una mentira armada por gendo una maldita mentira
Rei es la mamá de Shinji creada por Gendo, cuando me enteré de lo que es Rei real realmente sentí pena... Es como una falsedad no sé cómo describirlo 😢
A mi me dió impotencia y tristeza cuando murió en el Eva 00 peleando contra Armisael, ella ya estaba construída personalmente, para luego ser remplazada por otra Rei, no iba a ser nunca igual.
Rei Ayanami. In a series full of amazing character with tragic stories, she is the most tragic one. She is an amazing character, the face of Evangelion for good reasons.
@Testocules Lest we not forget that her appeal also stems from the fact that she is such a tragic character. Her entire life and future was wrenched from her and she was powerless to stop any of it and suffered things worse than what anyone should have to bear. It's just so sad. Of all the characters in Evangelion, I think she got the shaft the most. And of all the people in the show, I think she needed love the most.
I think the 3 of them deserved love. It's just that Rei is the most difficult to be loved. Shinji is a nice dude and that attracts people and make people care for him. Asuka has some charisma and social skills, that also attracts people's interest. But Rei... It's Rei...
I like that Rei 1 sounds cold and mysterious, whereas here the music is warmer and more sensual. This demonstrates to us the change in Rei's personality, her formation as a person
0:08 А ведь только у этой Рей был характер и эмоции до того, пока старая ведьма её не задушила насмерть. Позже, Рей 2 стёрли как небытие не только её биографию и память, но и все эмоции. Примерно, Рей 2 меньше прожила, чем Рей. Как же хорошо автор передаёт переживания всех героев и то, что не всегда всё может закончится благополучно. Из за страданий одного человека, пострадал другой человек, хоть и физически он не являлся таковым, но, я считаю, что Аянами Рей была человеком, став им благодаря поддержки Синдзи. Она поняла, что не всегда мир может быть так жесток.
I love her. She is the first girl I fell in love with. Yes, she is just a fictional character, but there is more life in her than in most living, real people.
Realmente este debe de ser uno de los animes con mas trascendencia en la historia. Si bien tratar temas psicológicos y filósoficos en el anime era algo que ya se había visto, este es distinto. Sin sobrevalorar a la serie (pues claro que no es perfecta), lograron crear algo fascinante. Y claro, esta canción no es la excepción.
She was only telling her what Ikari himself said. She probably thought she was doing her a favor, or doing what children often do, which is expose the truth without really meaning to.
Probably my second favourite character inside eva, im not ashamed that i had a crush on her when i was 15 years old ahahaahahah, btw this ost is really beatiful ill try to play it on the piano
I think he meant the first song of hers on the soundtrack. he said Rei I, or Rei 1 He could mean that the song is creepy T3T I think its creepy, but I still like it.
It's so sad, too many channel like these, about animes or songs from animes, are abandoned, like shizu, AEC anothers It's sad, also the anime it's sad, I prefer the first final, where shingy saves the humanity
Came here from otzdarva (dark souls, no hit run). I'm an anime fan, though having known about this title for long I've never watched it. It's on my plan to watch list, alongside many others. Is it worth it? 8.31 is a good score (MaL)
If you still havent seen it I dont know what the hell you're doing. Of course its worth it, it's a work of art- it definetly trascends the >CURRENT< definition of Anime.
I agree with what Ringworm1281 says, I find it really pretentious and ignorant of saying that someone who likes Dragon Ball Z isn't a "real" anime fan. In fact, I think your sudden outburst is really uncalled for. That guy was obviously trolling. Everyone are labeled real anime fans if they are watching Dragon Ball, Ranma ½, Fist of the North Star or in general, any kinds of anime, even something as bad as Naruto. There aren't really any "real" anime fans if I have to be frank.

shiro sagisu's work in eva is the best out of all of his works in other shows
One of the greatest composers ever
No one else was right for Evangelion like Shiro
Shiro is a woman
@elfinno the learning artist you sure about that chief?
It took me forever to learn this on the piano but it was worth every second

Yeah, please do!

And Asuka means raw and crude reality, the only thing Shinji could eventually get a grip on.

@Gypsyblood777 Which she ultimately becomes in EOE
@@Gypsyblood777 Yes, by the way! In "Expanded Blockage" in EOE, the motif from Rey 1 sounds, but this time it really is cataclysmic

Rei is the best girl.
Rei is truly the character of all time!
The music is just so beautiful, like Rei.
Down astronomical just like your clown car of forty
Got em

I'm about her age so I think I'm allowed to say it. Don't know about our friend over here though.@@kgduder1231
Oh Rei.... You are loved!
I wish we could go back to these classic times. Old school UA-cam was the best..
this beautiful ost explains Rei perfectly
There is no character like Rei, in literature or motion pictures.
Vujo357 there’s a handful of imitations.
Johan Liebert.
Only imitations, there will never be another Rei
True. Only dumb imitation tropes that completely shit on the depth of Rei’s actual character
That's the magic of the author
I understand now the music fits perfectly with the essence of the second rei wow it's such an experience to live life as it were
Best to just stop and appreciate the beauty of this song in the moment, regardless of what comes in the future.
I have found this sound for 2 hours and just found it! It's never forget since It was 2005
The music is so beautiful... But it hurts to listen to cuz I think of Rei's life.
Im crying..
buenisimo me encanta rei

Not gonna lie, this is definitely me when I've lived a life of sin
Live this year sin free brother

Happy 17th Anniversary to this video! Beautiful song!! 🥲👍
Incredibly fitting, especially when one has to watch Otz get struck by the Mirror knight.
You mean the walk right boss?
♥.♥
My first anime crush XD
Same lol
same, i sometimes cry thinking she isn't real
Mi teme favorito de Evangelion y muy buen video cx
I dunno, but isn't this one played when Rei self-destructed Eva-00?
This played when Shinji forces open the entry plug and she smiles with him for the first time.
@@ivanvzz2683 that one was Thanatos right? Rei has like three different themes

He could mean that the song is creepy T3T I think its creepy, but I still like it.
