Evangelion Unit-08 is a new Eva unit appearing in Evangelion 3.0 and piloted by Mari.
The Eva's original design was seen in a brief trailer appearance. The Eva was in a dark space hovering upside-down over a giant halo. The Eva's helmet was horned and greatly resembled those of Eva-01 and Eva-06. Its eye slit was in the shape of an anchor, a possible allusion to "Ikari", and the Eva had three eyes, recalling one of the Adams along with Eva-01's ascended Near Third Impact state. There were two large angular formations on the Eva's back.
Eva-08 was heavily redesigned for the movie, invalidating the original design. The new Eva-08 design has a cluster of eight eyes and is bright pink in color, matching the plugsuit color of its pilot, Mari. The Eva went through two different iterations in the movie: Eva-08 Alpha and Eva-08 Beta, with some changes to the armor covering.
