What Exactly is the EVAWe all know what the EVAs' purpose
      is. To combat the angels and eventually to combat each other in an attempt
      to bring mankind to a higher evolutionary level. EVA translates into Eve.
      Eve was created out of Adam by God and therefore they made the first two
      humans. EVA was created out of Adam as was Eve meaning the EVAs
      are human *thus proving Ritsuko Akagi's claim in Genesis 0:12 about the
      EVAs true essence* 
 Evangelion Unit-01 is piloted by the main
        character, Shinji Ikari. Ikari is the third child and was brought to
        NERV by his father who is in charge. EVA-01 is the most powerful of any
        of the Evangelions and is the most controversial. EVA-01 has moved
        without power on several occasions to save Shinji inside NERV. It also
        beserked on three occasions and destroyed three angels (the third,
        twelth, and fouteenth.) Unit-01 was part of the Tree of Life formation
        that started the third impact.  We all know who's soul is in
        Evangelion Unit-01. Shinji's
        mother Yui Ikari. If you haven't gotten that after watching the entire
        series and watching the movies *even though I haven't* you weren't
        paying attention. Eva-01 is a clone of Lillith. Remember Lillith
        was captured before Adam and EVA-01 was created and Yui chose to merge
        with the EVA. This explains why Rei can sync with EVA-01 because she is
        part Yui Ikari, giving her a geneticlink to it. This is also the reason
        why Kaworu couldn't use EVA-01. If had used Unit-01 nothing could have
        stopped him because Shinji can't pilot Unit-02. 
 Eva Unit-00 is the test model
        of the Evangelion series. It is piloted by the first child, Rei Ayanami.
        The Evangelion beserked and injured the pilot during a test with it a
        few weeks before the 3rd angel, Satchiel, attacked Tokyo-3. It's first
        task was to defend EVA-01 at all costs, even if it meant being destroyed
        so that EVA-01 could eliminate the fifth angel. After that mission,
        EVA-00 is out of action for a while and is given a paint job from Orange
        to Blue. It is unknown as to why. Unit-00 is responsible for the
        destruction of the 15th angel after hurling the Spear of Loginus into
        space and piercing the angel. Unit-00 was destroyed after the pilot
        decided to contain the angel within her AT field and destroy them both
        rather than witness Shinji die as well. EVA Unit-00was created AFTER Unit-00. The
question asked is who is the soul of Unit-00. Many
        people THINK it is Nakao Akagi. This is wrong! Despite some evidence to
        support that claim the soul is none other than Lillith. The mother of
        all human life. This explains why Shinji could do a test with Unit-00
        and that means Asuka could have as well. Unit-00 is NOT a clone of
        Lillith and simply has its soul. This explains why Lillith attempts
        to kill Gendo, Rei, and Shinji in the two tests. It hates Gendo for
        creating Rei out of her. She obviously doesn't like Rei. And Shinji
        because he is Gendo's sole offspring. Unit-00 is made out of Adam but
        isn't a clone of him. It also gives a little backup why Lillith was
        freed from the cross in the movies because Lillith's soul was free with
        the destruction of Unit-00. 
 Unit-02 is, debatably, the
        weakest of the Evangelions. It was the first Evangelion production model
        or as its pilot, the second child, Asuka Langely, says, "The first
        Evangelion designed for combat!" The soul residing in it is Asuka's
        mom. Asuka's mom went insane after a test with the Evangelion and
        committed suicide. Asuka discovered her hanging with her "Asuka."
        Unit-02 is used by Kaworu to delay Shinji as he tries to get to Terminal
        Dogma. In the movies Unit-02 is destroyed just as it is about beserk
        when it is pierced by a duplicate of the spear of Loginus. EVA-02's
        record *I am giving it a win and loss against the EVA-05 series because
        of what happened* is 5-5 (lost to Israfel, EVA-03, Zuriel, the fifteenth
        angel, and EVA-05 series.) Likes EVA-00 it is made out of Adam but is
        not a clone. Unit-02
        has the soul of Asuka's mother. Its obvious in the Tv series and the
        movies. In some ways its like a doll and is used like one by Asuka as
        her mother *whose soul resides in it* created her own doll to represent
        Asuka after going mad. Eva-02 is like Unit-00 and is created out of Adam
        but is still not a clone of him. This also explains why Kaworu
        controlled it. Kaworu is an angel and he is therefore related to Adam
        because all Angels attempt to return to him. Since the EVA's soul was
        dormant *or so I have heard* at the time, and he could connect to it. 
 Unit-03 doesn't have much of
        a lifespan. It is created in the US and is sent to Japan. At Matsushiro
        base it is schedueled for a test but the EVA is infected by an angel.
        The pilot, Touji Suzahara, is trapped inside. EVA-03 appears to be a
        very tough EVA and probably almost as strong as Shinji's though the
        angel lacks fighting ability. It takes out EVA-02 in no time. And after
        Rei hesitated it took her out of commision for a while too. Then it
        moved on to Shinji who refused to fight. It began to choke Unit-01 until
        Gendo activated the dummy plug system and we see the horrors as Unit-01
        turns into a monster and rips EVA-03 and Touji apart with Shinji's own
        hands. Touji survives though he loses his left arm and leg.
        Why Touji? Number one... he was a fourth level candidate. Two... he was in the entry plug
with
        Shinji once. Third, he is probably the most physically and mentally fit
        of all the pilots. All the pilots are motherless which explains who is
        in the entry plug, Touji's mother. Can I prove this. No. I can't prove
        it but its fairly safe to assume. It like Unit's-00 and 02, created out
        of Adam. Therefore the angel could take it over. 
 Almost nothing is known about
        Unit-04. In fact I think it is only shown once in Death & Rebirth
        for only a moment. The only other way you can see what it looked like is
        by buying some model kit. It looks generally the same as Unit-03 except
        it is white. It had no pilot and was the first to attempt to use an S2
        engine but apparently it malfunctioned and destroyed the EVA along with
        the enitre second branch of NERV. I don't know if it had a
        soul or not. In fact the only thing I know really about it is that it
        was created out of Adam like all the rest of the Evas. I don't even
        think there was a dummy plug for it. In a test with an S2 engine, it
	exploded taking out all of Nevada and branch 2 of NERV in the prosess.
If anyone actually has an idea
        please email
          me. 
 There is some
        information on the Unit-05 series.It
        was built by SEELE opposed to NERV. It is believed that one was
        created in each of the G7 nations and two others (The USA, Russia,
        China, UK, France, Germany, Israel, Korea, and Japan.) They are responsible for the
complete dismantling of EVA-02.
        They have wings, S2 engines, and can regenerate *as Asuka sadly found
        out.* They form the Tree of Life formation off of Unit-01 and begin
        the third impact. Well, EVAs 00, 02, 03, and 04, are all part of Adam
        but in fact are really EVE. Eva translates into Eve, which holds true.
        The third impact could not occur with Eve in place of Adam even though
        she was created out of him.
        They are piloted by the Kaworu dummy plug. Now, who could Kaworu be
        genetically connected to since these EVA's needed a soul. None other
        than ADAM. Thats right! The Unit-05 series are clones of Adam! Thats why
        Kaworu's dummy plug can work as well as the reason the third impact
        could occur. In order for Human Instrumentality to occur, SEELE needed
        Adam, Lillith, and the spear of Loginus. Adam was there in the form of
        the EVA-05 series. Lillith was there in the form of EVA-01 which is a
        clone of Lillith. And of course the spear of Loginus was returned
        inducting the Third Impact. Character Profiles | Angel Info | Mecha Info | Links | Bloopers | Intro | Basic Overview | Picture Gallery | Synopsis |
