Eva Maintenence
We all know working at NERV would probably be the most stressful job in the entire world, but what goes into repairing and maintaining the Evangelions themselves? Being cyborgs, there's more to it then just reading the manual and replacing parts. If internal organs get damaged or limbs get cut off, they have to be regrown, reinstalled and covered with new armor. All while the Evangelion is in a zombie-like state, without power, or if power is needed for it to move, the staff hoping it doesn't go berserk. And what does the Eva eat to maintain its organic tissue? (the same could be argued about Terminators) How is waste removed? If the Evas are presumably female and human, do they shed endometrium? (I'm trying not to give people an image of NERV technicians getting paid to load giant tampons into 'lower' Entry Plugs... :oops: )

Too late -- this is an OLD caption
I think there has been a thread about Eva maintenance some time in the last few months, which a little diligent use of the search tool should locate

I imagine they're all given total hysterectomy surgeries upon creation.

my question is what are they grown from? Rei clone + hormones and dna manipulation = really big eva?

EVA-01 would still technically be a clone of Adam. I mean just look at her, she looks just like the other Evas... Well except for the head, but they're all different anyways.
Even before Unit-01 eats Zeruel's S2 Engine, there's still something about it that makes it different from the others. I think Death and Rebirth has some quick flashes that show the Eva separating from Lilith via binary fission. Why Lilith created it, I can't say, but it's strange that Unit-01 looks like the other Evangelions; that is, like Adam. I have no idea why it was created differently. Maybe Adam had impregnated Lilith with his child before he became trapped in Antarctica? They used to be married, you know. Anyway, there's a connection to Rei in here somewhere, since she also contains some of Lilith's essence (or bio-matter, it isn't quite clear which).
As for the head, just remember that the Evangelions all wear different armor and masks, though it doesn't really explain why they have differing numbers of eyes if they're supposed to be clones of the two-eyed Adam.

for a fact I know that the number of eyes the evas have add up to 7( eva 02 has 4 eyes, eva 01 has 2, and eva 00 has 1 add it up and you get 7), representing the 7 eyes of god like the seele sysmbal. I remember reading somewhere that eva 01 chest armor is diffent becuase its suppose to have the most armor out of all the evangelions , but that might not be true. Personally I think eva 01 was built from lilith becuse it was buit with the exact perpose of playing a role in 3rd impact.

Also on the pre-Platinum Reiquarium scene...
There is enough support in dialogue to suggest that EVA-01 was grown from Adamic material -- by the agency of Gehirn. The picture indicates that this was done using Lilith as a host medium.

Yes I know that. But it has to grow from something. You don't get a giant humanoid creature by saying "lol its a clone." Somewhere it has to grow and maybe be born. Which begs the question of where the extra Rei's came from.

You have lots-o-legs sprouting from Lilith that seem close to Kaworu's size.
And we see the same legs on the cloned Spears that the MPE's used before they explode.
So why do you need biomass in order to clone?

Someone's been taking ADV seriously . . . or was that in the Mangle commentary?
Now tell me they are the barons of hell.

They all look slightly different, the reason 00 looks more like 02 after the refit is probably because they had some spare armour for her.
I always thought that they regenerated over time perhaps during that cryo-stasis thingy.

Mitosis? In the specific sense of Lilith: Quantum Magic? Or maybe she was trying to regenerate her body but there was a mutation going on.
Rei is like cancer to a Progenitor Entity.

If the State declared that "two plus two makes five" as a fact, and everybody believed it, would it not be true?

That's hardly a fair test, if you strapped a cage of Rat's to my face I'd tell ypu that 2 + 2 = Sherbet

If that's the case, how does Unit-03's two play into that?

If the Evas are presumably female and human, do they shed endometrium? (I'm trying not to give people an image of NERV technicians getting paid to load giant tampons into 'lower' Entry Plugs... :oops: )
My guess would be that they wouldn't suffer from such a specifically mammalian quirk.

it doesnt, which means that that theory is bogus.
and about Unit-01 looking like all the other Evas even though its a clone of Lilith, well maybe it was a silly planned that ultimately worked to make Unit-01 loook like Adam so nobody would suspect that she wasnt.
and maybe Unit-01 has more armor because it needs more to restrain the beast.
