id like to see an eva crossed with the gouf custom...in fact, the gouf's torso with an evangelion waist and slenderer, longer gouf legs plus less of the skirt armor.
paint it bright red and in sleeves colors with golden trimming instead of white, and have Asuka pilot it

1.) UNIT 08 - im indifferent to the pink, mabye like it just a little, but the design is just awesome, the head in particular with the eyes is a great visual
2.) UNIT 13 - just epic, has all the good points of eva 01, but better, and with added benefit of being multi armed like bardiel
3.) UNIT 06
4.) UNIT 03 / BARDIEL
5.) UNIT 05 - LOVE the 4 leg design

Apart from Unit 03 those labels make no sense to me (they're all MPEs, wtf?).

As for my favorite, Kyoko of course. I give Yui points for style, but she's a bitch so fuck off. Kyoko gives a shit about her kid so she wins hands down.

I think Baggy means that they're MPE's in the sense that they are Evas that are Massed produced.

Note the forum. If we were in the Rebuild forum that would make sense, but here? MPEs.

It's important in Discussion, of course, and helpful in Chat when talking about the characters and evas. It's not officially enforced, though. My general feeling on it is "if you wanna talk about the ENT, start a thread in the Rebuild forum. That's why it's there."

Or maybe just precise when you're talking about an Eva from NTE, that should be a good compromise, no?

Why isn't "use the forum that exists for that exact purpose" a good compromise? I don't expect people to do that with the art thread, since that's an unreasonable burden to place upon both posters and viewers, but when it comes to discussion and chat I really don't see the benefit to mixing continuities. Keep the ENT stuff in Rebuild, and everything's cleaner and easier for everyone.

Alternatively: we are expected to keep chatter out of the NGE Discuss forum, so by the same token I would expect to keep chatter out of the ENT/Rebuild discussion forum.

But this is really a matter for the mods to discuss and then tell us their policy on.

Keep the ENT stuff in Rebuild, and everything's cleaner and easier for everyone.

But making a "What's your favorite Eva" in Chit-chat and in the Rebuild sections will create redundancies, like noted above the picture thread don't make a distinction, so why would a topic about your favorite Evas discriminate?

And if my favorite Eva is Armaros (which is the case) should I create a new topic on the "Everything Else Evangelion" subforum about everyone's favorite Evas from ANIMA?

Personally I agree to keep Rebuild talks out of the "Discussion" subforum, but not for the "Chit-chat".

My understanding is that the Rebuild forum is for all things related to the new movies, whether they be serious discussion or idle chat. If it's meant for "serious discussion only", as the Discussion forum is for the main series, it would be appropriate for Chat to be open to all iterations of the franchise. But I don't think that's how the forum's been used or moderated in the past (we've never seen chatty threads in the Rebuild forum moved out to the Chat forum, for instance).

Yui, without a doubt. Unit 01 breaks coolness records on a daily basis, and does so painted up like Barney the dinosaur.

However, out of all the variations we've seen of her, I'd say Anima's Super Evangelion Final Stage is the coolest, just from sheer looks alone. I look forward to the day we see her on the big screen.

Additionally, Unit 02 wins the award for most badass fight scene. EoE alone makes Kyoko a close second, even if her animation was a little janky.

Well im gonna have to choose between Unit-01 and Unit-02 here, not to be confused with yui (since she basically completely controlled unit-01 in the series), yui/unit-01 (since manga unit-01 was its own thing), or kyoko (because unlike the series we don't see any evidence she is inside unit-02 in rebuild)

I'm going to have to go with Unit-01 solely for god mode at the end of 2.22, seriously "fuck you Zeruel im saving my pilots crush, also i may be turning into a god, bitchin."

Unit Zero.
I can't really think of any way of justifying this preference. Other Units have cooler designs, flashier colour schemes and more impressive combat records. I just have a soft spot for it, for some reason.

But only after it got its spiffy new blue paint job.

Let me guess....because Rei pilots it. Don't worry, Unit 0 is my favorite too for the same reasons. If your talking design wise then I'd have to say Unit 1 but other than saying it looks cool, no. Also how about a poll for this topic, someone could then have a quick glance to see what people think.

I like Unit 1 is the best because it looks really different from the other Units. It looks like a gladiator with all of it's sharp edges.
