Evangelion,
a true delight to the senses.
Although
the series may seem to start as an action-oriented mecha
anime, it slowly morphs into a drama filled with conspiracy.
The
characters all have a past, each slowly revealed throughout
the series. The unknowing viewer is thrown back and
forth, watching their favorite characters get tossed
around, built back up, only to be torn down again.
All
too often a series will give the viewer what they want.
Evangelion is full of so many twists and turns that
the viewer is always on their toes, reaching many climaxes
which either leave the unsuspecting viewer in tears
of joy that their favorite character triumphed, or tears
of sadness at what happened to their favorite character
moments later.
The
degree to which Evangelion is able to evoke emotion
is matched by none. The complexity of the plot is both
refreshing and leaves the viewer dying to see more.
All of these elements, combined with breathtaking animation,
makes Neon Genesis Evangelion a must see.
