A theory I made of Adam's where abouts in the Rebuilds

[Johnspill]

Adam’s Whereabouts

Evangelion 01 - 100% Adam, due to the third eye
Evangelion 06 - Possibly Adam, it triggered the third impact, although it may have been the twelfth Angels doing, on top of sharing characteristics of Lilith
Evangelion 9-12 - Highly Likely Adam due to sacrifice
Evangelion 13 - Possibly Adam, possibly Kaworu has affected this Evangelion in some way
Kaworu Nagisa - 100% the soul of Adam, possible S² engine due to surviving on the Moon
NHG Series Airships - Unlikely to be Adam, likely controlled by Evangelion 10-12
Key of Nebuchadnezzar - Not Adam, no reason for Adam to become this key

Personal Theories: Evangelion 01 is the three eyed Adam we see in flashbacks, as shown with its fight against Zeruel where it is seen firing a laser from its third eye. Evangelion 06 triggered the third impact due to the 12th Angel possessing it, and coming in contact with Lilith. Evangelion 9-12 are the remaining four Adams, due to being called vessels and the sacrifice being incomplete without them on top of other evidence. Evangelion 13 triggered the fourth impact due to absorbing Kaworu Nagisa’s “First Angel” status, absorbing the twelfth Angel, and dual wielding spears of Longinus. NHG Series Airships were/are controlled by Evangelion 09-12. The Key of Nebuchadnezzar is likely an artifact similar to the dead sea scrolls or the book of life, unrelated to Adam.

In sum, the five Adam’s are

-Evangelion 01
-Evangelion 09
-Evangelion 10
-Evangelion 11
-Evangelion 12

These theories are probably wrong somewhere but I just wanted to give back to the community, so I'm open to any feed back!

These are my conclusions bases on what I could make out of the films:

- Evangelions Mark.09 to 12 are not Adams but Adams' vessels, meaning they are Adams core reshaped into an Evangelion.

Mari explicitly says "goodbye Adams when she sinks the battleships, so those are indeed Adams reshaped into airships, with the Marks .09 to .12 serving as their detached cores (true masters).

- Evangelion 01 may possibly still be Lilith's clone. There is a shot during its pseudo-evolution at the end of 2.22 where we get an ominously shot to Lilith and then get back to ascended Eva Unit-01. And even Gendo and Fuyutsuki needed it to awaken before Mark.06 was deployed, meaning there is something special about it that SEELE knows nothing of.

On the other hand, there is a brief shot of a chalked Evangelion-sized figure at the beggining of 1.11. Now we know the story went through many changes during the years of the movies' production, so maybe Eva Unit-01 was originally intended to be that Adams which was blown away during Second Impact, but in the end they changed it to be Evangelion 13.

- Evangelion Mark.06 was supposed to be an Adams according to the conversation Fuyutsuki and Gendo had after their meeting with SEELE in 2.22, where Fuyutsuki mentions SEELE is trying to use a real God (referring to Mark.06) instead of using false ones.

SEELE told them all previous Evangelions where nothing but tools to open the path for the true Evangelion, and soon they would be unnecesary (including Unit-01).

- Evangelion 13 is the 5th Adams as Mari gave us intel once it awakened in 3.333. She told the audience it was a surviving Adams (repurposed as an Evangelion).

- Kaworu Nagisa is NOT the soul of an Adams, but he is the 1st Angel who was demoted to the 13th Angel once Gendo absorbed the Nebuchadnezar Key into his body.

- Nebuchadnezar Key might be the lost 11th Angel or an Adams, as it is shown as a nervous system without a head, meaning it's lacking the fruit of knowledge and is blessed with the Fruit of Life.

- Adams came before Angels in lineage just as SEELE (Ancient civilization) came before Lilins.

My theories about Adam in Rebuild are these:

- There are five Adams (as it was implied in the Dead Sea Scrolls). We see four Adams in Misato's flashback, but there seems to have been five crosses. It also fits the idea that there are six Holy Spears (if we include Lilith here).

- The fifth Adam is the first Angel. The numbering of the Angels was done by humans. Since Lilith is the second Angel, SEELE/NERV must have encountered the first Angel before.

- I think Kaworu has the soul of (the fifth) Adam, that's why Kaworu said he was the first Angel. I've also think Rei has Lilith's soul.

- Evangelion Unit 00, 01, 02, 03, 04 and 05 were clones of Lilith. Instead, Mark-06 was created using remains of (fifth) Adam's body, that's why SEELE called it as the True Evangelion.

- Mark-09, Mark-10, Mark-11 and Mark-12 were creating using the core of the four Adams. The bodies of the four Adams were used for the Wunders.

- Evangelion-13 is clone of the (fifth) Adam, since SEELE needed a replacement for Mark-06

Could you explain why people seem to believe the Evangelion 9-12 were created with cores and the ships made of the body? To me it seems like it should be the other way around, because I thought cores were a power source, and that the Evangelion 9-12's lack of an AT field be evidence that they have none. Also, this still doesn't necessarily explain the 3rd eye Evangelion 1 has in its evolution. However the theory about Evangelion 13 seems to hold up to me

If I'm not mistaken, it has been mentioned Mark 09-12 were make from core in the movies, that's why these Evangelion could easily regenerate.

About the Wunders being Adams bodies, that's because the ships appear to have skeletons as their base.


PS: Mark-09 has a AT Field, so we can assume Mark 10-12 also have one. Only Eva-13 is mentioned to not have AT-Field.

- Asuka mentions that Mark.09 is all made of core.

- Ritsuko calls Mark.09 Wunder's true master, as in the one who can control it as its control system

- None of the Evangelion Marks have an AT-Field of their own. Even SEELE had to put a shield over Mark.09's decoy-core so the enemy could not damage it

- Mark.07 series never displayed an AT-Field when they were im combat with New Eva Unit-02

- Evangelions Mark .09 to .12 are referred to as Eva Opfer-type (Sacrificial Evangelions), while the airships are directly called Adams by Mari (at this point she is the one who gives the audience a little bit of intel about the mysteries in NTE alongside Ritsuko)

- As Konja7 wrote, the airships are pure skeletons at this point; and are big giants as the Adams in Misato's flashback

- The dissected 3rd Angel from 2.22 was an attempt at controlling the Adams (which they succesfully did as seen in 3.0 onwards), it is even partially dissected and has an entry plug attached to its body along with some cables

- Four of the 5 crosses can be seen from space, meaning they belong to something bigger than an Evangelion, and the only beings bigger than an Evangelion are the airships.

- Somehow they made possible for the Adams to survive without their cores attached to them, like I mentioned above, there is now a clear reason why they were previously experimenting on the 3rd Angel before.

Hi, hello everyone.

I could be wrong but I think that the wiki mentioned that Gendo (or Fuyutsuki) I don't remember mentioned the majority of Evangelions are actually Adams's Clones. The Evangelion from 9 till 13 instead are the actual 5 Adams.

Personally I believe that Eva 01 have both the DNA of Lilith and Adams, plus maybe the DNA of Yui and Shinji that could be needed for make the Synchro's Rate being a 100% sure thing for them.

In Rebuild, it has never been said Evangelion 1-9 are created from Adams. Evangelion (sans Eva-01) being created from Adam was the explanation in NGE. However, this explanation was never given in the Rebuilds.

Honestly, I feel Evangelion 1-5 were created as Lilith clones, since the 5 Adams clones seem to be reserved for Marks 09-12, the Wunders and Eva-13 (and maybe Mark-06).
