Super Evangelion

This unit is an evolution of Evangelion Unit-01, retaining its iconic purple and neon green color scheme, but now featuring additional orange details throughout its body. The Super Evangelion (S.EVA) is equipped with armor derived from the F-Type Equipment, making it bulkier and more ornate compared to its predecessor.

The creation of the Super Evangelion occurred during a critical moment when Shinji, piloting the Unit-01 Type-F, was shot at point-blank range by Rei Quatre in her Evangelion Unit-0.0 Mutant. The attack left everyone believing Shinji to be dead. However, in that moment, Yui Ikari appeared before Shinji, and his body and soul merged with Unit-01. This fusion triggered the Unit-01 to begin rebuilding itself, ultimately transforming into the Super Evangelion.

Shinji's soul is now so deeply intertwined with the S.EVA that it can be considered his second body, reflecting the profound connection between the pilot and the Evangelion.
