User Reviews

A condensed version of the series proper! It works well as a recap or a quick entry to the series, but I feel it loses impact in its pacing.

Allthough it is the re-narrative of the 28 episode long original show, it is well worth watching if you want the whole picture of NGE

Kind of a stepping stone between the Evangelion TV series and the film The End of Evangelion, but still require viewing for any fans.

Juan Sebastián Ortega

It should change its title to: How to deal with the psychosexual desires and existencial crisis of the individual in a work of art. Magnific

Zesty Conversation

Probably my least favourite animated installment to NGE, but I also don't enjoy recaps.

Pls watch the show first its just some extra episodes

You definitely don't need to watch this if you've seen the end of Eva but it's still good

Loughlin Harrick

I remember enjoying this. Mainly for Eva fans

Despite being philosophically equivalent to the series finale, this is a completely different, crazy journey. Love it.

It is like two additional episodes that helps show the story of NGE in wider view. I recommend if you have watched the series of NGE.
