MAVIR

MAVIR is a fictional company featured in the anime series Neon Genesis Evangelion. MAVIR stands for "Mitsubishi Advanced Visionary Industries Research," though this full name is rarely used in the series. It is a subsidiary of the larger NERV organization, specializing in the development and manufacturing of advanced technological components. MAVIR is primarily responsible for the creation of the Evangelion units, the giant bio-mechanical robots used to combat the Angels. Their work encompasses a wide range of disciplines, including robotics, bio-engineering, and materials science. The Evangelion suits, particularly the plug suits worn by the pilots, are also a product of MAVIR's research and development. The company's contributions are crucial to NERV's mission, providing the physical means to defend humanity. While not a primary focus of the narrative, MAVIR represents the technological backbone that enables the events of Evangelion to unfold, highlighting the immense resources and scientific prowess required to confront the existential threat posed by the Angels. Their internal operations and the extent of their research beyond the Evangelion project remain largely unexplored within the anime.
