| Summary: |
In the year 2015, the Angels, huge, tremendously powerful, alien war machines, appear in Tokyo for the second time. The only hope for Mankind`s survival lies in the Evangelion, a humanoid fighting machine developed by NERV, a special United Nations agency. Capable of withstanding anything the Angels can dish out, the Evangelion`s one drawback lies in the limited number of people able to pilot them. Only a handful of teenagers, all born fourteen years ago, nine months after the Angels first appeared, are able to interface with the Evangelion. One such teenager is Shinji Ikari, whose father heads the NERV team that developed and maintains the Evangelion. Thrust into a maelstrom of battle and events that he does not understand, Shinji is forced to plumb the depths of his own inner resources for the courage and strength to not only fight, but to survive, or risk losing everything. |

It's interesting how in the middle of the struggle against the Angels, where their lives are on the line, the characters developed in a cyclic way. It's kind of frustrating to think that the reason the anime keeps you interested is the progress of the enemy(Angels) and the weapons(Evas). I still think there was a lot of room for characters like Misato, Gendo Ikari, Ritsuko and Toji to grow. The alternate ending brings a lot of confusion into the plot and leaves more questions than answers, even though the fighting scenes are amazing. I think the reason most us like this anime so much is because at a certain point in our lives we tend to empathize with one of the characters, although not reaching their point of nihilism, and because of it's amazing animation.
