And I have to confess that I've not seen Rahxephon. @ SDB I actually enjoyed the TV ending of Evangelion and was LOL at the two fingered salute to viewers in EOE. It left a lot of interesting questions hanging in the air which kept its fandom well fed and alive through the years till its revival. I can't say the same about Mahoromatic 2's ending which was much more contemporary SUNRISE a la Gundam SEED. @ TheBigN But Sei already has Shimako. On that note, one of the things that allowed the Sei x Shimako soeur relationship to work was how Sei cared for but did not desire anything more than the soeur relationship with Shimako (unlike Shiori). In parallel, the mentor-mentee relationship, as you so accurately characterize, between Yumi and Sei works because neither desire to have a soeur relationship with each other. @ Nazareille

But otherwise, it's very much a mentor-mentee relationship which is nice. :P With the Sei-Yumi relationship though, I do feel that if Yumi offered, Sei was interested enough to take the chance.
