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. Each of them only has a right arm, with only a stub of a left arm terminating before the elbow. 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 right arm.

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 13, 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), and their exact workings are not explained in detail. Apparently, the pilots do not synchronize with the simulation body itself, but somehow the "simulation plugs" connect with the real Evangelion Units, through the simulation bodies, as seen when Rei turns on the real Eva Unit 00's A.T. Field while in the simulation body.
  • The simulation bodies are designated "Zero-A", "Zero-B", and "Zero-C".


This article bears the unpleasant designation of "Stub." This is a Bad Thing. Provide a great service to NGE fan-geeks everywhere by making it awesomer!
