Neon Genesis Evangelion

[Inuyasha]

I loved this anime.  It was pretty deep and dark, espacially as it closed out.  Here's the wikipedia definition:

Neon Genesis Evangelion (TV series)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 
Neon Genesis Evangelion (新世紀エヴァンゲリオン, Shin Seiki Evangerion?), commonly referred to as NGE, Eva, or Evangelion, is a commercially[1] and critically[2] successful, influential and popular Japanese anime that began in 1995; the series single-handedly launched the Neon Genesis Evangelion franchise. The anime was created by Gainax, written and directed by Hideaki Anno and co-produced by TV Tokyo and Nihon Ad Systems (NAS).

It is an apocalyptic mecha action series which centers around the efforts by the paramilitary organization NERV, to fight monstrous beings called Angels, primarily using giant mecha called Evangelions which are piloted by select teenagers, one of whom is the primary protagonist. It follows those teenagers and other NERV members until the defeat of the Angels and the eventual apocalyptic ending.

Events in the series refer to Judeo-Christian symbols from the book of Genesis and Biblical apocrypha among others.[3] Later episodes shift focus to psychoanalysis of the main characters, who display various emotional problems and mental illnesses;[4][5] the nature of existence and reality are questioned in a way that lets Evangelion be characterized as "postmodern fantasy".[6] Hideaki Anno, the director of the anime series, had suffered from clinical depression prior to creating the series, and the psychological aspects of the show are based on the director's own experiences with overcoming this illness.[7]

In the original Japanese, the word "Evangelion" is pronounced with a hard g per its Greek roots (see

I liked this show, but it was freaky wierd.  I was extremely confused and lost.  I know it is based off of biblical grounds, but I haven't read the Bible, nor do I plan to in the future.  Overall it was pretty good.

It wasn't based on biblical grounds, it just had a lot of biblical terminoligy

[fushiclay]

I thought it was really creepy when EVA like turned into an animal and started eating the angel and like ate its heart or something.

[bleachell]

that was weird but what really sucked was that rei was nothing but a clone

[Inuyasha]

I thought the weirdest part was when the last Angel was acting gay towards Shinji.

[Ray-Ray]

Kaowru wasn't gay towards Shinji. He was trying to break down his mental defences like the other one did to Asuka. Sorry I'm an EVA freak so I know all this. Oh and Toshiro-Kun I've read up to book 4 of Anfelic Days books 5+6 are now out as well
