Notes:
T&A page about the Train Motif and just what it symbolizes (personal hell)
seems not just to be limited to Shinji (16, 20, 26'), but other characters (ARM in 26') and Asuka in 22', as well.
After this sequence when Asuka sees Shinji, we hear that Train Crossing sound-effect often heard during Shinji's Personal Hell Introspection.
Also, possible connection between Asuka's "personal hell" in reality and what she went through during mindrape (e.g.: Speculation perhaps "hell" of Shinji not being hers, or the fact she's alone and hates it deep down despite her denial...) In the real world scene, Asuka sees Shinji standing and talking with Rei at a train station (unable to call Kaji since he's dead_; looks angry/jealous, her anger seems to focus solely on Shinji (how dare you beat me you scum; I'm the best not you); Rei's essitenaly just a girl in the background... In mindrape scene, she's alone at a train station, sees Kaji and tries to get to him for help, but evil versions(??) of Asuka stop her; goes into blah blah blah Shinji sucks bigtime sequence.
26' Train stuff: Asuka calls Shinji on what he did, says want's to be his, Shinji wants kindness from her, weird sequence of ARM saying they're kind to him and other stuff I don't quite get, Shinji freaks out (Instrumentality starting to get to him??) as the three women stare at him silently; cue strangle scene no.1.
also get into if the "2nd person" of himself Shinji sees throughout is actually Shinji or possibly an Angel and or Shogoki.
various series episodes: Rei 3 asking Shinji why he does what he does and/or was it that he wants (people to praise him/not to leave him alone/to be kind to him; feels Eva is his only way of getting such praise)
Include Obligatory link to the Rei Ghostly Mechanics page since it's connected with Rei 3 and all...
