Evangelion Unit-13 is a new Eva unit appearing in Evangelion 3.0: You Can (Not) Redo and piloted by Shinji Ikari and Kaworu Nagisa, sitting in two side-by-side entry plugs. [1].
Profile
Eva-13 strongly resembles Eva-01 in appearance and color, although it has four eyes. It initially starts out with two hands, but later gains another two for a total of four.
Operational History
The Eva is produced in secret by Gendo and Fuyutsuki, and kept in containment to avoid Wille from detecting its presence until it is activated for the first time. It is more advanced than other Evangelions and is designed to be piloted by two individuals in adjacent entry plugs, using a unique Double-Entry System. Either of the pilots can shut off the other plug's control systems, although the Eva itself won't shut down unless both pilots are incapacitated or removed from the Eva.
After its activation by Shinji and Kaworu, the Eva breaches the barrier sealing off Terminal Dogma and descends into Lilith's chamber, accompanied by Eva Mark.09 along the way. During its skirmish with Eva-02', Eva-13 is revealed to possess a number of drone weapons capable of attacking targets from any direction or sacrificing themselves to absorb incoming attacks against the Eva; the pilot has at least some control over these drones. The Eva also has a second pair of arms, normally folded up against the chest when not in use; with four arms, the Eva has enough physical strength to dual-wield the Spears of Longinus it pulls out from Lilith's body. The Eva then proceeds to consume the previously dormant Twelfth Angel freed from the body of Eva Mark.06 by the latter's decapitation, entering an 'Awakened' or 'pseudo-evolved' state similar to Eva-01 during Near Third Impact.
Compared to Eva-01 however, Eva-13's transformation is more radical: its shoulder pylons are replaced with a crystalline structure that grows out of the Eva's shoulders, being almost as long as the Eva's body. At the end of its transformation, the Eva manifests a pair of vertical halos behind it and gains the ability to fly at high speeds, rising from Terminal Dogma up to the surface in a few seconds. After its ascent, the Eva begins Fourth Impact.
While in its Awakened state, the Eva demonstrates considerable resilience, withstanding a full-speed ramming attack from the AAA Wunder without any apparent damage. It is eventually stopped when Kaworu impales the Eva with both Spears, followed by the DSS Choker detecting him as the Thirteenth Angel and terminating him. Even then, the incapacitated Eva remains in its Awakened state until Eva-08 removes Shinji's entry plug, causing the Eva to revert back to its original state and Fourth Impact to abort. The uncontrolled Eva is last seen crashing down onto the Earth, presumably intact.
Early in the battle, Eva-13 stops the special munition fired at it by Eva-08 without using its AT-field; Mari theorizes that Eva-13 is actually one of the surviving Adams.
Original Concept
Over the course of production, most of the concepts for Eva-08 appear to have displaced onto Eva-13.
