Simulation Bodies
The Simulation bodies are three incomplete Evangelion Units, kept in the Pribnow Box in NERV HQ for testing purposes. They are unarmored, have no legs, and instead of heads have a large number of cables extending from their neck. They are used in tests aimed at refining the synchronization between Evas and their pilots. While synchronized with a simulation body, Asuka described the experience as feeling as if all of her body felt numb except for her arms.
The Angel Ireul infected the simulation bodies during its invasion of NERV HQ, raising the arm of one of the simulation Evas towards the control box with Ritsuko and Misato inside. However, Ritsuko quickly severed the arm at the shoulder with demolition charges planted inside of it. From the core of its infection around the simulation bodies, Iruel proceeded to form into a living biological computer circuit, and hacked into the Magi supercomputers.
Notes
- The simulation bodies only appear in Episode 11, and the details of their construction are unknown. They may have been constructed by salvaging and reusing earlier rejected Failed Evangelion Prototypes, but this is just speculation.
- It is also unexplained how the Eva pilots were able to synchronize with them given that in Episode 23 Ritsuko reveals that Evas need to contain a human soul in order for a pilot to synchronize with it, specifically the soul of their mother (Yui in Shinji's case, Kyoko in Asuka's case).
