Design wise, sure, but it's such a niche thing that calling girls that aren't from monstergirl series or inspired by them is like calling dolls in general Rozen Maidens, and saying that Medicine and Shanghai are Rozen Maidens. It has a certain connotation. It's not like the things in Darkstalkers or Ragnarok online couldn't be categorized under them, but it's a matter of trying to force it over them, saying catgirls and succubi are monstergirls rather than some monstergirls are succubi and catgirls. Some dolls are Rozen Maidens but not all dolls are Rozen Maidens.

You're focusing too much on the visual aspect basically.

Eva doesn't define robot anime, it defines a niche of robot anime, just as monstergirls don't define non-human females, but a niche of non-human females.
There's Eva and there's things that were inspired by Eva. You could probably use Rei alone as an example. Being a blue haired girl or a quiet girl doesn't make you Rei. But there was a trend of robot anime like Eva and girls like Rei.

I don't know what the monstergirl version of Rei is so I can't make any further comparison, but a monstergirl would have to be not just "Rei-like" in appearance but in actions, in intention. Like Eva and Like Rei, the MGE set the trend and what is is undeniably inspired by with other works.

You pretty much got my point of view though.

I should stop derailing the thread too.

She probably doesn't count.

What? Compared to the first two it was easier, though still pretty fun.
