Phil Collins "Strangers Like Me" - good Rei/Shinji

Postby the Black Monarch » Tue Jul 09, 2002 1:57 am

Does anyone aside from myself think that "Strangers Like Me" by Phil Collins would be great for a Rei/Shinji (from Evangelion) video? I ran this idea by the only person I know in the real world who likes Evangelion, and he thinks it's perfect. I've already begun initial sketching.

Opinions?

Parts of the video are now assembled, but the project has been put on hold indefinitely.

I don't think so, but I know another song by Phil Collins that would be good... He does this song called "One More Night", which is on his "No Jacket Required" CD. Check it out. It's a good song, and I think it's good for those two characters.

I think I've heard parts of that song. What are the words?

Part of my video is told from rei's point of view, and other parts are from Shinji's. It was the only way I could make it work.

One more night, one more night
I've been trying ooh so long to let you know
Let you know how I feel
And if I stumble if I fall, just help me back
So I can make you see

Please give me one more night, give me one more night
One more night cos I can't wait forever
Give me just one more night, oh just one more night
Oh one more night cos I can't wait forever

I've been sitting here so long
Wasting time, just staring at the phone
And I was wondering should I call you
Then I thought maybe you're not alone

Please give me one more night, give me just one more night
Oh one more night, cos I can't wait forever
Please give me one more night, ooh just one more night
Oh one more night, cos I can't wait forever
Give me one more night, give me just one more night
Ooh one more night, cos I can't wait forever

Like a river to the sea
I will always be with you
And if you sail away
I will follow you

Give me one more night, give me just one more night
Oh one more night, cos I can't wait forever
I know there'll never be a time you'll ever feel the same
And I know it's only words
But if you change your mind you know that I'll be here
And maybe we both can learn

Give me just one more night, give me just one more night
Ooh one more night, cos I can't wait forever
Give me just one more night, give me just one more night
Ooh one more night, cos I can't wait forever

Yes, they have more chemistry... in the sense of "mix powerful acid and powerful base, violent explosion, everybody in the room gets hurt" chemistry. Rei and Shinji have more of a "put small crystal into supersaturated solution, come back in the morning to find big beautiful crystal garden" chemistry.

Asuka hates Shinji and Rei loves him, they explicitly say so. Get used to it.

Shinji shows genuine love for neither of them, and lust for both, but the only one he shows hatred to is Asuka. Get used to it.

As for the "one more night" thing, I just don't see the connection.

Umm, Rei is a physical reincarnation of Shinji's mother. Isn't that kind of sick? Where's klinky's "Feels like mommy" pic?

Rei loves him because she is like his mother. Asuka dislikes Shinji's pussiness and passive ways, which is understandable, but she never seem ed to outright hate him. In a way, they're like the <a href="http://www.friesian.com/yinyang.htm">yin and yang</a>, but with reversed genders. Anyhow, why is it, in Shinji's alternate reality dream place, that he ends up with Asuka, if they both hate one another?


I hated Rei. Gendo should've just had his hand up her ass (like he probably did :lol: ) like a puppet the whole series, considering that's how much of a character she really was. Asuka had personality, confidence, and finally vulnerability. Better than some blue haired clone who's only role was to look spooky.

I think Rei is one of the best anime characters ever created. My reasons only I can truly understand.

I for one can say Shinji awesome although he was never fleshed out enough for me to like his type.

As for the topic at hand. Go ahead. When or if you get it done, annouce it and I'll see about giving it an Opinion.

Note: I always give better than average points, cause...average, is what the video I am working on.

An Asuka/Shinji pairing is the only one that should happen. Rei has 50% of Yui's DNA. So yeah. That gets kinda wierd. Asuka on the other just appears to hate Shinji. She is in fact, exactly like him. Shinji receeds from people to keep from being hurt while Asuka pushes them away to achieve the same results. They even say this in the series in one of the mind scenes. Asuka said something like "I can't stand looking at you", and Shinji's responds was "Because you are just like me." And one more thing. What about the end of "The End of Evangelion." Why is it Shinji brought Asuka back with him after the 3rd impact? Because he does care for her, thats why.

if asuka wasn't such a world-class bitch, i'd agree with you.

as it is, i just think rei and shinji are cuter together.
