What's Evangelion to you? For me it's both a touchstone and an uncomprehending able vision created by "Hideaki Anno" ~ double as enthralling as the mecha anime genre show it is and as distressing in the exploration of despair, making for a whole different level of an epic tale about angels and inner demons. Arguable as one of those shows that have numerous hidden messages in itself as the show has been going on, while some argue that it only plays up to a definite fatuous philosophy of the world. Whatever the case may be, NGE has established itself as one of the hot topics ... in the anime world for more than a decade now. It takes some time but every once in a while a movie is released to such a vast prolonged well-known admiration; that the likes of Your Name, Ghost In The Shell, Spirited Away, The Wind Rises, Howl's Moving Castle, Ponyo, Kimestu No-Yaiba Mugen Train, Princess Mononoke, The Secret Of Arrietty, are welcomed as an inspirational and adored by most, with some redefining features. Evangelion 3.0+1.0 is no exclusion as a movie that perhaps is not as ground-breaking currently as the original series was at the time of release that it peaked to its utmost limits and will ever be, but nevertheless, it is an awe-inspiring work that raises the bar even higher. An anime feature that can stand up to with the greats of the original releases. Neon Genesis Evangelion will always be broadly considered as one of the most momentous animes that was created in the 1990s, if not of all time. It will always be enormously well known for its heroic efforts to turn the mecha genre upside-down, its deep character improvements, and its eccentric subplot. Created by an acclaimed studio Khara, and written by both admired (and sometimes hated) writer Hideaki Anno, Evangelion has always been called a magnum opus by most anime fans.
Does it deserve the commendation?
Yes.
Story ~ 10
Evangelion tells a succinct and stunning story that tracks the emotional ordeal of its teenage hero characters, which stand as the solitary fighters of the war that humans don't stand a chance of winning. They're required to pilot gargantuan machinelike monsters (considered as Evas) to battle intractable enemy ones, called Angels. There's a massive count of people who live and breathe anime this is for them. With dozens of industry giants agitating out so many shows since Evangelion first came out as a mecha show that stole hearts away, today there isn't a shortage of shows of the same genre to watch, and the creators know their audience. They know what people want to watch nowadays; and the ability to live a fictional world that makes you feel authoritative, be adored for, and free from realism. To stand up with the best, with the likes of Evangelion 2.0 and 3.0 this movie is a masterpiece.
Animations ~ 10
The movie can be appreciated on a purely filmic level, as a mecha head trip. The images are created as an amalgam of hand-down and the CG simulation that allows complete flexibility of crusade, with some glimpses that swoop all around and through the cleverly complex machinery. The development of each of these new high-tech geniuses such as the space battleship Wunder, which has decks and wings prickling in all directions, like a giant robot's army knife – has an operational sense of scale. (The smart mechanism is designed by Ikuto Yamashita). All I could say about the animations briefly is that it was phenomenal.
Sound ~ 9
The theme song is "One Last Kiss" by Hikaru Utada ft. Hina somehow makes me feel a little uneasy because it also makes me realize that this is the last installment of the series, that being said it has nothing does nothing wrong with the song, its rhythm and its style marks the joyful and playful akin to the metal situation of the '80s. Being sad as it is it makes no difference on how beautiful the song is. I admit that I was doubtful and figured that I'd end up with a remix to a previous song but I was amazed to the core while I stayed and heard the whole song. A little oblivious and a little heart-melting that's what I feel about this song.
Characters ~ 9
It somehow seeks to disconnect all the characters from real people and swap them in its place with fictional characters that they can understand easily and behave in ways that are necessary and foreseeable. In truth, it's an amazing poisonous and blank existence and it can only be replaced by realism for so long for the characters living it. Ultimately, the tried-and-true deceits begin to run empty and the loneliness and the desolation sink once more, except now when you open your eyes and look around at the realism, that it's completely left behind to look back on and realize that your daily simple life has left you behind and all your left with is the despair and no option but to keep moving forward and to see a different world.
Enjoyment ~ 9
The original Neon Genesis Evangelion showed people that it understood them: Shinji's terror of denial, his ambiguity as he created this art of his to such acclaim, his solitude, disbelief, hindrance, and feebleness echoed within so many people that they believed that it was their own story because everyone could narrate to these passionately authentic human sentiments. The Evangelion Rebuilds are more pointed than that though and will always steer you away from realism and beyond normal beliefs of life strongly dividing its watchers into believing that it’s their own and making them live through it. In the end, I cried a little thinking it's all ending all of a sudden as the movie was about to end, and then I realized how far did we come since then and what a great journey it has been for all of us, that's what put a smile on why face while I stood there applauding.

Now, this is where it gets dazzling.
Let's talk about the anime for a moment.
Escaping into another world that is entirely liberated by any of the aspects of our normal world: different from live-action television which still uses actors, situations, and scenarios that are shot in real places with real people, anime is something that is given life into existences and entirely erected worlds. It's such a mesmerizing experience. Don't get me wrong, this can be an unbelievable feature used to tell tales and stories that are greatly effective and likable. I will always love this genre for what it has to offer and how much it has accomplished and how dazzling and astute fragments that it can often produce.
It's not just high-class to anime, either: the moving ideals that can get people so hooked to the anime and patent themselves in many forms, from video games to online forums. These sensations and sentiments that move this kind of activity are not restricted to such a precise community, though. They seek to outbreak anime itself.
Neon Genesis Evangelion is universally appreciated, but its reconstructs are designed and targeted at people who have already had the experience with the genre itself, and people are not happy with what the bulk of the standard has become.
Evangelion 3.0 + 1.0 is an absolute spectacle, as astonishing to the eyes as it is to the ears. The fourth film can out-do the first, second, and third installments in so many more ways, all the while taking the storytelling in a thrilling new way and new directions for both the old and new fans. A re-creation would have been too easy for Hideaki Anno and his crew – instead, they went for an above and beyond, reincarnating the ideals of the Evangelion verse that we've come to adore, offering us new elucidations fifteen years on, proving with some level of ferociousness that Eva is far from gone and forgotten. This movie solidifies its franchise, as it has done more than enough to surprise and inspire fans all over the world once again, reminding us all why every Eva fan fell in love with it in the first place.
Hugely experimental and magnificently exceptional, Evangelion 3.0 + 1.0 is a roaring success.
And my last message ~ “Sayonara Subete No Evangelion”.
