Are people actually not getting this one?Amazing. If you notice, Asuka's bandages cover up the areas on her body that got severely injured at the end of her battle with the mass-produced Evas. Specifically, when she got stabbed in the left eye with the first lance and when her right arm got split down the middle with the second. And I thought that was fucking obvious.

no actually it not fucking obvious. if you were transformed into the lcl liquid, and you decided to come back to your previous form you would be naked. bandages and clothes are not the same. do you have clothes or bandages when your born? no.
Unless she was sychronized in the same way Shinji was in Episode 19. Once she gained full synch with the realization of the Eva's true identity, her entire being became part of the LCL.
However, she didn't suffer the same loss of identity that Shinji did in Episode 20. She kept her form separate from the Eva's LCL pool. Remember Episode 18 when Shinji was being strangled, or Episode 19 when Eva Unit 02 was about to be decapitated? At her current level of synch, what happens to the Eva happens to her and vice versa.
She reactivates Unit 02 with her very will, but that put her into the position of being one mind & body with her Eva -- just as Shinji would have become in Episode 20. Therefore, when a lance pierced the Eva, she shared everything -- it pokes out her eye when a lance runs through Unit 02's helmet, then splits her arm when Unit 02's is split.
As to the clothes... you're right, where did those come from?
(btw, I still want to know where the plug suit in Episode 20 came from...)


remember how totally pwned Eva 02 was by the MP Evas? Remember how it was dismembered and broken when Shinji first saw it? How could Asuka survive this?
the absolute answer, held within the Eva Carddass Masters Trading Card Game

After all, most of this episode occurs in Troi's mind. We can attribute any errors to the good counselor's neurons. But, for the sake of completeness, let's see what problems we can discover!


6: I recently finished 'End of Evangelion.' The ending didn't make any sense. What did Asuka mean when she said "Disgusting." It's all very confusing to me. Could you please fill me in a little if you don't mind?
I'll try... The most widely circulated translation of the last line of EoE is "I feel sick", but Amanda Winn Lee (voice of Rei Ayanami, who also directed EoE) said she asked several translators, and she felt "disgusting" was the most accurate adaptation. You could say she is disgusted with/sick of the situation or wih Shinji himself. My favorite explanation though, is this one: My husband, Matt Greenfield, directed the TV series and is very familiar with the whole Eva franchise. Matt has said that although (Eva creator) Hideaki Anno seems to change his mind frequently about what various things mean in Eva, Anno once said that Asuka's comment about feeling "sick" was a reference to morning sickness. Now THAT gives ya something to think about, doesn't it! Of course, Anno is quite passionate about the idea that every person should decide for him or herself what Eva means to them.
