Are they divided only by their outfits? For example, is Rei II only Rei II because she's the plug suit Rei? I've heard people defining them in these terms, so I'm wondering if that's actually the case. I mean, they CAN change their clothes and everything.

Rei I - the young Rei that was killed by Naoko Akagi
Rei II - the Rei we see through the majority of the series up to the point when Unit-0 self-destructs
Rei III - the Rei we see after Unit-0 blows up

Each subsequent number shows that this Rei is a replacement for the previous Rei. It has nothing to do with clothing.
Awesomely Shitty

-On EMF, as a thread becomes longer, the likelihood that fem-Kaworu will be mentioned increases exponentially.
-the only English language novel actually being developed in parallel to its Japanese version involving a pan-human Soviet in a galactic struggle to survive and to export the communist utopia/revolution to all the down trodden alien class and race- one of the premise being that Khrushchev remains and has abandoned Lysenko stupidity

Sorry! Wow, that owl really does look like it's laughing, though.

I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself. This has to be one of the silliest questions I've heard in a while.

Gblughbgbg I only saw it once... And it's all so confusing! There's a Rei and another one and then she dies and then the whole show in in Shinji's head! This is probably another reason why I like Asuka better. You know. She exists.

Oh, and she's hot.

To be fair, in this image, the aspects of Rei can be distinguished by what they might be wearing.

Can't argue with that.
