    00:27 There is no disadvantage; neither Adam nor Lilith-based Evas had S2 Engines, as all of them needed to be powered by electricity.
    Eventually, Seele learned how to properly replicate the S2 Engines, and Gendo made Unit 1 consume Zeruel's S2, so both Adam and Lilith-based Evas CAN have an S2 Engine.
    There are no other Lilith-based Evas because Seele intended to use none other than Lilith herself as their wishgranter, making Lilith's clones would only increase the risk of other people hijacking the Third Impact, which was exactly what Gendo tried to do.
    I suspect that Unit 1 only exists because of Yui.

      More like they didn't know what they were doing when making 01.
      Pretty sure 02 is also from Lilith though, 00 is the first from Adam and that is the reason it doesn't accept Rei at first (she is a clone made with lilith so not compatible).

      @@kintsuki99 Nah 02 is Adam, we know this for 4 reasons:
      1- Gendo and Fuyutsuki singled out 01 as not just the most important one for their 3I, but the only option. That's not just bc of Yui.
      2- In EoE it has dark skin, just as 00 is shown to. Sachiel, Zeruel, Israfel, all the humanoid Angels have dark skin. Lilith and 01 are both pale.
      3- 00 and 02 are of a very similar build and armor config, 01 is completely different though.
      00 is just weird because Rei II is trying to synch with Rei I, which isn't exactly a mother-child protectiveness dynamic.

    From scientific aspirational failure, to religious myopicy, and economic social depravity, all leads to the motivation for such depraved means to preservation of our species let alone societal proclivities.
    Here's hoping we're not going that way as a species, but then. . .

    Do we know for certain that an Eva must have the soul of the pilot's mother? Sure, that's true for Unit 1 and partially for Unit 2 and maybe Unit 0, but what about others? Every student in Homeroom 2-A is a potential pilot. Are they all motherless? Does Nerv or Seele or the Marduk Institute have their mothers' souls stored in a bank somewhere? Or does the pilot provide the soul that allows the Eva to operate, but those first three have something extra?

      Remember in the woods when shinji runs away? Kensuke says he doesn't have a mother either. Its implied that Toji also doesn't have family because we never see his parents looking after his sister. It could be any family member really, they just need the soul to want to protect the pilot.

      Episode talking about first Impact.
      It is not even sure if that is truly Adfam though, that is the Angel that "fused": with Lilith causing the 1st impact, Adam is (supposedly) what remained of it after the event.
      Though Evangelion is a timeloop type story so what caused the 1st impact is not clear.

    Totally wrong, EVA00 and EVA02 were made based on Lilith and EVA01 was made based on Adam, this is why other EVAs have different eye configurations while EVA01 has two eyes. Notice also EVA01 didn't obtain the S2 engine from Zeruel, it has always had one, it moved by itself many times during the series while unplugged, without a pilot and with the batteries depleted, actually in the original series Zeruel tried to destroy EVA01's S2 engine just before it went berserk. Next time just attach to the facts, no need to create controversial content out of personal fantasies and misinterpretensions.

I can only conclude that Anno was doing every drug he get his hands on. The fact that the movie remakes are even more ridiculous than the series shows how much it depended on everything *but* the story.
