I present to you a bunch of illustrations from an obscure, apparently "unofficial" artbook titled Eva Fix: Abnormals in Dairy Life [sic] (alternatively subtitled Abnormalities in Daily Life by some fans out there); these illustrations depict concept art for alternate versions of Evangelions 05 through 13 that come with their own original pilots. I've tried my best to translate the pilot's names and their countries of origin (because surprise, none of them are Japanese... well, except possibly one, who might be part-Japanese based on their given name), which are included as comments above each image, but be advised that some have defied my attempts at deducing what they're supposed to stand for. I leave it up to those members with far better grasp on Japanese-to-English translation to decipher the information contained within the walls of text; maybe then we can update the wiki's Extracanonical Characters article with the characters' info.

6th Children  SPOILER: Show
Baek Mimu (JP: Pegu Meimu), from South Korea.
Image


7th Children  SPOILER: Show
Mary Kissinger, from the USA.
Image


8th Children  SPOILER: Show
Patsy ??? (surname is is rendered in katakana as "Rufudonifu"), from Norway.
And yes, "Patsy" is an actual given name.
Image


9th Children  SPOILER: Show
Irena ??? (katakana reads "Fiitorafu"); nationality is uncertain due to not being spelled out like other pilots, but seems to be Russia or a neighboring conutry, given that I could barely parse out "Baikonur", "CIS" and "KGB" in the text, as well as her Evangelion bearing the acronym "CCCP" on its head (the Cyrillic version of "USSR", implying either the Soviet Union didn't collapse or was somehow reformed).

10th Children  SPOILER: Show
??? (pronounced "Rufii Haaderugaimu" in Japanese), from Spain.
Image


11th Children  SPOILER: Show
??? (pronounced "Shion Kurooche" in Japanese), from Italy.
Image


12th Children  SPOILER: Show
Alex (full name: Alessandro Lesley); nationality uncertain, though his Italian given name and English surname imply Europe, North America, or Australia as the most likely candidates.
Image


13th Children  SPOILER: Show
Joanna Cont, from France.
Image


EVA-13: FIRST TYPE  SPOILER: Show

Here is an Imgur album of all the illustrations, for those who want to download them all in one go.

IKR? I wish I could fluently read Japanese so that I could understand all that's written in these illustrations. There's so much lore in this that we're missing out on.

Yeah, this is 100% fanmade, just an elaborate doujin. As for what you're missing out on; I've spoken to a few people about this years ago who weren't fluent by any stretch, but spoke enough Japanese to understand the broad strokes; if memory at all serves me, the throughline was that all of the story to this is just comical amounts of edge with little to no actual substance

Question: Based on the title, can we expect images of cows, and if so, are the Holsteins or Jerseys? :tongue:

How are you so certain?

I've seen people misuse "edge"/"edgy" when describing something that they don't like, and similarly call something "without substance" despite it actually having enough to make that statement objectively incorrect, so I take that assessment with a grain of salt until I see proof otherwise.

No, unfortunately. There's a reason why the subtitle is often changed to "Abnormalities in Daily Life" by fans when they post it.

Because if it were official, it would have the appropriate branding on it. No gainax or khara logo anywhere on the thing.

I don't know why you are being so confrontational here; I only vaguely recall the specifics, but the general throughline was that every backstory was very overdrawn and in-your-face (to the tune of "my entire life has been a downward spiral at every turn possible, everything sucks and I make no attempt to have any personality trait other than talking about this") with little to no counterbalance.
As for the proof - feel free to commission a translator to go over these pages and see for yourself if you want to know what this is about. As far as I am aware, there is no English-speaking coverage of it.

Oh man EVA 08 and 13 have such sick designs, 08 looks like if Jet Alone's design was adapted to work as an Evangelion, 13 looks almost like a proto Mk.07 with it's round, basic head.
*injects Angel blood* I know what the fuck an EVA is now :)

Yeah, you're right. I let the fact that its contents looked like actual production illustrations distract me from checking the credits. So much for raising my hopes that they're semi-official concepts.

I don't know why you are being so confrontational here; I only vaguely recall the specifics, but the general throughline was that every backstory was very overdrawn and in-your-face (to the tune of "my entire life has been a downward spiral at every turn possible, everything sucks and I make no attempt to have any personality trait other than talking about this") with little to no counterbalance.

I wasn't being confrontational, I was expressing my jaded skepticism.
