Neon Genesis Evangelion is one of the greatest anime series of all time. From the mystical worldbuilding to that catchy theme song to that divisive ending, its influence is found everywhere. It’s almost certainly the only anime series to be referenced by Robin Williams in a horror movie.
Since the series premiered in 1997, there have been a slew of movies with plenty of alternate endings, but now the series is about to go back to where it all began — with a brand-new anime series with a sci-fi mastermind at the helm, someone who could usher in a new age of Evangelion.
