>>4260972>Shinji and Unit-01 mopped the floor with Eva-02 when Kaworu took it, iirc.Yeah he straight up kicks it down and it goes limp like a ragdoll before he grabs Kaworu. Corrupted Evas are definitely something that should be explored more in the series when it returns from it's hibernation because it's such a perfect blend of body horror and hard sci-fi fuckery. The reason Bardiel and Armisael stand out the most aside from Leilel and Ramiel is because Bardiel leaves so much of the terror and visuals to the imagination, wondering if Toji is getting vore'd by the blue cum or conversely if he's getting stuffed with it like a twinkie. With Armisael it during the fight when it corrupts unit 00 it literally bloats and deforms the Eva into an almost Carpenter-esque blob and then starts slowly seeping into Rei.
The body horror scenarios in Eva were vastly underused for a series about self perception and pain. An angel that say causes hallucinations in the pilots to hallucinate (1/2)
