Neon Genesis Evangelion

Neon Genesis Evangelion is a marvellous work of GAINAX. In the year 2000, Earth was being attacked by the echo of the Big Bang, an event which was said to have created the universe. The Second Impact, another name for this echo has caused the icecaps in the Arctic to melt, causing a the water level of Earth to rise about more than half and killing millions. Beside that, the Second Impact was said to create aliens known as angels and they have invaded Earth and are trying to destroying it. In order to stop the invasion, a group of 14-year-old children are being selected to pilot machines known as Evangelion Units to stop these angels.

In the year 2015, the main characters of the anime, Ikari Shinji, was selected as one of the pilots to control Evangelion Unit 01. He soon discovers that his father, Ikari Gendou is the chief director of this organisation and hoped that he will live with his father again. But neither did he know that Gendou only made use of him and after he knew it, he wanted to quit being a puppet of his father...

The suspense and cool graphics of Neon Genesis Evangelion makes it a MUST for all anime/manga fans to watch it. I hate to say this but I didn't really like the ending part of the series. All the soul searching stuff got me quite confused... (Maybe I'm really stupid...) But after weighing the pros and cons, its still definitely one anime that robot lovers should have in their collection. Enjoy this for tis is Neon Genesis Evangelion...
