One they didn’t list:

Misato Fukuen: Yami vs Eve

They’re neigh identical in powers when using their base forms (without Darkness form for Yami, and Eden for Eve), so it would all decide on their knowledge of how to use their trans powers to the maximum capability.

I do however feel Yami would be the victor, as while their powers are identical, Eve just doesn’t have the experience of battle Yami does, which would cost her the battle.

(Why is a Dragonball Z style fight between them playing in my head right now???)
