Anime: Neon Genesis Evangelion

[audio]

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 and criticall successful, influential, and popular Japanese anime that began in October 1995; the series launched the Neon Genesis Evangelion franchise. It is commonly and officially[9] regarded as one of the greatest anime of all time. The anime was created by Gainax, written and directed by Hideaki Anno, and co-produced by TV Tokyo and Nihon Ad Systems (NAS).

Evangelion 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. Later episodes shift focus to psychoanalysis of the main characters, who display various emotional problems and mental illnesses; the nature of existence and reality are questioned in a way that lets Evangelion be characterized as "postmodern fantasy". 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.

In the original Japanese, the word "Evangelion" is pronounced with a hard g per its Greek roots (see Translation notes on the title below).

  • JAPANESE MAKE SUCH GREAT MUSIC 8*)

  • Is anyone else getting a fanservice vibe from this?

  • @DarkFairy003 OOOOOh I recognize it now XD....holy cow I love that song :D

  • @widdlepuddyfat The show is about Shinji stops being a wimp (at least, the original is). It's about a kid who has been through so much shit and nobody cares about him. His mother is dead, his father is a cold bastard, his guardian does not understand him, One of his girl friends dies before she can admit how she feels about him, the other can't bear to tell him how she feels, and comes to hate him. Basically, his life sucks. Of course he's depressed.

  • @hotelmario510 I know. :( It really makes me sad when people write Shinji off as an "emo"or "pussy". How hard can it be to see how much shit he is going through? It's one of the most obvious things in the series.

  • @widdlepuddyfat The amount of people who don't understand the point this show is shocking.

  • @hotelmario510 Dang! >:/

  • @widdlepuddyfat I'm currently at 109.

  • @hotelmario510 That has to be one of the most easily won games on YouTube. XD I'm already at 9!

  • @danightpisser Yeah, I guess you're right. I still wouldn't use the word "pussy" to describe him, but it's a hell of a lot better than "emo"...
