However, later cuts after these clearly show that they retain the damage sustained at the hands of Eva-02 through the end of the film (indeed, in a bit of morbid humor, one MP Eva whose head was impaled by spikes fired from Eva-02 retains the spikes impaled in its head through all subsequent appearances). Several continuity errors in the animation of the Mass Production Evas in The End of Evangelion has led to some confusion: in several cuts, the MP Evas appear to have restored their severed limbs and regenerated their injuries.It looks like she is attempting to crush the core of the unit. Eva-02 squeezed its fist inside of Eva-13 as it writhed in pain. Evangelion Unit-13 - Eva-02 threw Eva-05 into it, then as Eva-02's fist came out the other side of Eva-05 as it impaled it, Eva-02's fist punched into Eva-13's chest.Evangelion Unit-05 - Pushed through a wall by Eva-02, resulting in damage to its neck, then thrown through the air into Eva-13 after which it was completely impaled by Eva-02's arm as it punched a hole clear through its torso.The metal spikes remain impaled through Unit 10's devastated head throughout all of its subsequent appearances. Evangelion Unit-10 - Tackles Eva-02, prompting Asuka to fire two volleys of missile-spikes through its head, using the spike-launcher in Eva-02's right shoulder pylon.Evangelion Unit-08 - Left leg cut off at the knee by Eva-02 using a Heavy Spear, causing it to lose balance and fall on its back.Evangelion Unit-12 - Completely cut in half by Eva-02 via a Heavy Spear through the waist, its upper half sent spiraling through the air.Evangelion Unit-06 - Dueled Eva-02 using Heavy Spears, until Eva-02 was able to land a direct hit between its left shoulder and neck, cleaving downwards to the center of Eva-06's torso.Evangelion Unit-07 - Right arm cut off by Eva-02's Prog Knife, after which its neck was snapped backwards: its head actually dangles behind it (touching its back) after this.

Evangelion Unit-11 - Pushed into the lake with Eva-02, then stabbed through the top of its head with Eva 02's Progressive Knife the blade snapped off, impaled in its upper jaw and projecting into its mouth.Evangelion Unit-09 - Attacked by Asuka with a flying-jump 'skullbuster' move which tore off its upper jaw and smashed its brain pan to pulp, after which Asuka held it over Eva-02 and broke it in two, spilling its blood all over Eva-02.

In the order in which Eva-02 engaged them in combat: However, production sketches do reveal the specific designations of each of the nine Mass Production Evas.

This might have been to avoid animating the designations each time (the other Evas did not have their designations drawn each time) and also to avoid continuity confusion. However, their designations are not painted on their shoulders or arms, unlike the regular Evangelions. In EoE, computer displays clearly list the Mass Production Evangelions as 'Eva-05' through 'Eva-13'. Production sketches of each battle-damaged MP Eva (click for larger view)
