Absolute Anime

lol, people are Quoting quotes who quoted quotes, who are quoting quotes. The bottom line is that Evangelion is for people who enjoy analyzing things. There's so much to Analyze in this anime that it's still misunderstood by many people. Evangelion is not over-rated. The storyline was an incredible process of thought. Anno studied many different religions, and because he went into denial, and depression, he was able to produce this psychotic anime. Also, it defies tradition and wasn't a Manga before an Anime. I, personally enjoyed all of the symbolism in the characters and angels. Enjoy this anime, and if it's too confusing, then don't watch.

w00ps, repost

This anime uses the phycology of a 14 year old's mind, and how it reacts to different situation. Plus the designs of the Angels, Evas, and characters are great. The storyline in itself is good, and the phycobabble are understood by few.

I would say that the anime is a little overrated but I'm actually quite surprised that it is very popular. It's a really confusing anime that most people wouldn't understand, but it's really popular? I would think that the average person would be like "what the hell is this?". But that could be just me.

Yeah, as Deacon said, NGE presents itself at first as just another mech anime, but as it goes, it progresses to somethign much more psychological and philosophical. Anno uses the idea of mecha warfare as a paintbrush to paint and portray a story and idea that is more than mecha warfare; something more psychological. And he does it with mastery and delightful confusion.

^^ Couldn't have said it better myself

I didnt mind the storyline or anything.
Its a somewhat different genre of anime for me, and Ive seen the show like 5 times already, but it is different.
Thats all Im gonna say.

[Misato was the best character]

its not the best anime, but its definently one of the top 3, in my opnion

That's a comment for someone who has not seen End of Evangelion. Unfortunately, you either have to find a friend that has it, or buy it yourself, because it's never gonna go on TV. It's sexual references are too much for the censors, and it's way to complex for the casual viewer to understand. Half of Evangelion is in the series, the other half is in that movie.

ok first, i have seen the movie EoE, it was a great movie, just got abit too biblical towards the end, second, it has come out on tv, on SBS, so

Just because i think a couple of other animes are better, doesnt mean i havnt seen the entire thing. The other 2 animes that i like better are, Gundam Wing & Gundam Seed, heck, id probably think that NGE is second, with Gundam seed third

oops, double post, how do you delete it??

Lemme correct myself, EoE can't come to Cable TV.

mayby not on cable, but here in aussie, it comes on free tv But yer, i have seen the movie, so you cant say "That's a comment for someone who has not seen End of Evangelion." Unless u have proof of it Ok?

When I first seen Neon Genesis on TV, I thought it was pretty good. But after I seen Shinji & some other dude naked in the bathtub, I didn't want to watch the first couple of episodes anymore. Just didn't want to watch it no more.
