Evangelion: 1.0 You Are (Not) Alone (2007):
This film largely follows the plot of the early episodes of the original TV series but introduces some changes and additions. Shinji Ikari is recruited by the organization NERV to pilot the giant bio-mechanical robot Evangelion Unit-01 to combat mysterious beings known as Angels. The film explores Shinji's complex relationships with his estranged father, Gendo Ikari, and other characters.
Evangelion: 2.0 You Can (Not) Advance (2009):
This installment introduces new characters, Mari Illustrious Makinami and Kaworu Nagisa. It deviates significantly from the original series, introducing new story elements and changing character dynamics. As the conflict with the Angels escalates, Shinji and his fellow pilots face new challenges, and the mysteries surrounding NERV and the Evangelion units deepen.
Evangelion: 3.0 You Can (Not) Redo (2012):
The third film takes a dramatic departure from the original series, featuring a post-apocalyptic world. Shinji awakens after a 14-year time skip to find that the world has drastically changed. NERV is no longer functioning as it once did, and new factions have emerged. Shinji must navigate a reality where the consequences of his actions are profound and dire.
Evangelion: 3.0+1.0 Thrice Upon a Time (2021):
This final film brings the Rebuild series to a close. It continues the story from the previous installment, exploring the consequences of Shinji's decisions and providing closure to the narrative. The film delves into the nature of existence, the human experience, and the impact of choices made throughout the series. It also addresses the enigmatic character of Kaworu Nagisa and ties up loose ends from the previous films.
It's important to note that the Rebuild series is known for its complex and often ambiguous storytelling, which has sparked various interpretations and discussions among fans. Each film introduces new elements and twists to the Evangelion narrative, providing both a fresh perspective and a reimagining of the original story.
Certainly! "Neon Genesis Evangelion" is a critically acclaimed and influential anime series created by Hideaki Anno. It originally aired in Japan from 1995 to 1996. The series is known for its complex narrative, psychological depth, and exploration of existential and philosophical themes. Here is a detailed summary of the series:
Setting:
The story is set in a post-apocalyptic world where mysterious and powerful beings called Angels threaten the existence of humanity. The main defense against these Angels is the organization NERV, which deploys giant bio-mechanical robots known as Evangelions (Evas). The story primarily takes place in the futuristic city of Tokyo-3.
Protagonist:
The protagonist is Shinji Ikari, a 14-year-old boy who is recruited by his estranged father, Gendo Ikari, to pilot one of the Evangelion units, Unit-01. Shinji becomes one of the Eva pilots alongside other teenagers, Rei Ayanami and Asuka Langley Soryu.
Plot:
Episodes 1-15:
The early episodes focus on the battles between the Eva pilots and the Angels. However, the series also delves into the psychological struggles of the main characters, exploring their traumas and insecurities. Shinji's strained relationship with his father, Gendo, is a central theme.
Revelations and Twists:
The narrative takes unexpected turns as the true nature of the Eva units, the Angels, and the organization NERV is gradually revealed. The mysteries surrounding Rei Ayanami's origin and the Human Instrumentality Project become central plot points.
Kaworu Nagisa Arc (Episode 24):
Kaworu Nagisa, an enigmatic character, is introduced in the later episodes. His presence adds a layer of complexity to the story, and his relationship with Shinji becomes a focal point. The revelation about the Human Instrumentality Project and the truth behind the Evangelions intensify.
The End of Evangelion (Alternative Ending):
The final two episodes of the original TV series, episodes 25 and 26, diverge from the traditional narrative. These episodes delve into the minds of the characters, exploring their inner thoughts and struggles. The abstract and symbolic nature of these episodes sparked both admiration and confusion among viewers.
"The End of Evangelion" is an alternative ending that provides a more concrete and visually striking resolution to the series. It explores the climax of the Human Instrumentality Project and the impact on the characters' lives.
The ambiguity and complexity of the narrative have led to various interpretations and discussions among fans, making "Neon Genesis Evangelion" a landmark series in the anime industry.

@@baron-chan6484Understandable. Believe it or not Shinji is relatable when you’re a piece of shit lol
When it has effort it does, but then you get to the slideshow that is the parts they didn't have budget or time for
94 feels more like actual giant machines moving. Absolute props to the studio behind it! 👏🏻
eva units aren’t robots
@@Bika-ss2bi I'm not really familiar with Eva's lore, but iirc, aren't the Mechs in this series part machine part flesh?
@@stewpid4410 they are biological beings created from lilith, the robotic parts are more of an armor to detain their power and allowing for control
Actual weight and damage looks like implied on the newer one, the take off, impact to the ground and the stop.
@@Bika-ss2bi ohhh! So I guess the newer version makes much more sense for them then huh?
90s animation just hits different tbh. I wish studios would and could still do it
Then it wouldn’t be popular, newer fans and older fans want cooler looking anime
@@DaNNi2774 and it's incredibly expensive and takes a TON of time and talent that just isn't sustainable or even there anymore. It's basically a lost art at this point. People still do it, but since it isn't commercially viable, most pros don't, and it's trending more and more that direction.
Kids don't know any better, too, they think older is automatically worse, and while there is definitely value to evolving forwards, forwards does not automatically equal better.
Plus, Gainax even at the time was a MASSIVE exception, *towering* over their competition, with nge being kind of their moonshot magnum opus.
@@scmstr Yeah, if it didn't work out they were f'ed. Personally I'm one of the minority that is kind of happy they ran out of money during production since I prefer the original series ending, far more contemplative and abstract plus more satisfying. Not nearly as iconic though.
The ones from the 90s were more hand drawn, so it would be difficult for them to do it now
This is something we call bias and nostalgia
Its the fact that 94 didn't need a remake that does it for me
it's not just a remake tho, the story is different. it's kind of a spoiler but in truth it's more like a sequel, but you'd have to watch all 4 movies to get that
not a remake, more like a different kind of experience
In Japan , the new movies were more like events.
Preference I feel like the new version is a look faster and cleaner
Le doublage anglais 😂😂😂😂😭😭😭😂
Dude the part where he activated the AT field just hits DIFFERENT in the ‘94 version
False
@@loganmccauley320true. The pose does not go as hard in rebuild
@loganmccauley320 it's his opinion
Not at all, it’s objectively better
You’re just blinded by nostalgia
@@LURKTec I just saw both this year. But I think the shot after it is so much better in the rebuild version.
The '94 version not only looks better to me (look at the use of colors, tones and the hand drawn effects), but the EVA units feel a lot heavier. In the 2.22 version, they feel so weightless...
why does everyone always say this? maybe it’s because I’m a zoomer but I think the new one looks objectively better and I think everyone just says they like the 90s one for nostalgia and to be different and act cultured
@@mrskellybones4514the new one literally looks like dogshit, it has none of the attention to color, it looks unbelievably cheap. I mourn the future
You're right the newer version it looks like the Eva's movements are effortless as if they are not moving a huge amount of mass. Newer version looks more like sprinters in track suits.
I like that. Because it moves more like a biological entity and less like a robot. And, I like that Asuka and unit 2 specifically move more like a soldier who has been trained to fight in armor, especially that German split jump replacing the close jump. It makes her look more like a soldier trained in Germany, as well as making the Eva look more biological. She even uses the close jump later, at close range where it would make tactical sense. It shows that she's been trained when to use what techniques. @Knivez84
The good old, “How the thing I remember really is” vs “how I remember it”.
New version lets you feel the scale and speed of things.
Old version lets you feel the brute force of things and their life-or-death importance.
Yes! That's very well put.
Super agreed
Now I wonder if it could just be combined 🤔
I really hate the new Sahaquiel. Looks very obviously cgi.
New one has both. Old one is just old.
I Appreciate the old Evangelion for animating and drawing out every frame
literally everything was frame by frame, and Evangelion ain't even the most impressive of them all when it comes to art and effects
@@akiraic Dude, no kidding. I wonder if the crunchtime artists of the era knew just how rare their work would become later down the line. Im still surprised Magic the Gathering still used traditional art for their cards for as long as they did!
That's why the characters and EVA look so much better in the original, and like cheap copies in the new stuff.
Real
@@osanieslana960 2D just locks better because it’s fits the animation better then 3d every Mecha anime I watch I notice2D mechas looks better because it just fits if you can tell it’s 3D it doesn’t feel like it belongs in the animation that’s it’s different

@@b2i3t94 you got some points, approved
The ramiel glowup goes so unbelivebly hard🔷🔥
Nothing beats the 90s
The angel designs the Rebuild series was able to create with new animation technology are awesome, but I personally think the direction and shot composition is better in the original.
High key the angels look super impressive with CGI tech but I feel you on the 90's cinematography
Why did they modify the Eva shot composition? Instead of showing each Eva running their hardest to get to the point in time, they just focused on Unit 01. The point of this angel in the original was to show that they were finally coalescing as a team and each child/Eva are a force to be reckoned with and are nearly unstoppable together as a team. This let the future Angels and their absolute difficulty and over powered nature be that much more impressive.
I love the upper one🎉
@@bitterjack the original scene is like 2 minutes or so long where in 2.22 the whole scene is like 6 minutes long so I cut down the rebuild to match the frames from the original. It's supposed to be more of a showcase of the animations and matching frames but the rebuild has this cool scene where unit 01 is redirected by raising the panels on the city to course correct without losing speed. I definitely recommend people watch both
Cinematography and better storyboarding wins over flashy computer generated visuals any time... You're definitely right.
I like the stationary camera direction of the old one, as if from a person's perspective. And details like the wires and others giving them mass.
The clearly CG parts in the new one look cheesy. That being said, it's not bad at all but the original 94 one looks/feels better.
I like the look of the Angel in the new one, I'm sure on the storyboard the design looked great, but in practice seeing it in CLEARLY CG makes it look like got carried away and now it's so far removed from the rest of the animation it looks out of place (through it's clearly visual CG).
94 got that armored titan run
I like how heavy 2.22 is, every step of an Eva leaves destruction in its wake.
Let's agree that the 94 has a lot of visual identity
It really does but let's be honest if it had the type of budget and they had back in the late 80s it would have been next level😅
Like the original bubblegum crisis for example❤
One thing I notice is the general movements in the bots being different. Where 2.22's has all three moving with expert precision, no wasted movements; 94's all have these shaky movements like the pilots themselves are adjusting things in real-time. It makes 94's seem almost more realistic. These are massive mechs being piloted by imperfect beings. Does 2.22 give a better "weight" to them yes. But 94's imperfect motion feels more appropriate
Especially taking into account there's an entire episode in the original series dedicated to getting Shinji and Asuka in sync with each other to save the day
Rebuild evas have automatic transmission, vga brakes and assisted suspension. XD
Plus rhey are giant machines, their feet shouldnt curve as they step, the limbs shouldnt move as freely as a persons.
@@twilightsparkle75 Big spoiler... Evas aren't machines they resemble the titans from SNK, or to be more fair SNK titans resemble evas. XD
@@animeturnMMD snk? Also arent these mechs manmade machines built to be operable by humans?
I would say personally 2.22 looks better, but that doesn't make 94 bad. In fact, it was really good for it's time. A classic.
94 aged well 2.2 did it justice
94 is pure art 🎉
The 80s and 90s were the wildest time for cartoons and anime! What a great time to grow up.
Sidenote: LOVE the AT Field. Theres something so subtly scary about a mech with pyschic powers.
Looking at modern anime these days with so much CGI makes one appreciate the 90's style.
The new one is more of my style, where the movements are more exaggerated, but the old one is actually really nice and gives that nice feel of a simple time enjoyer
Definitely a vibe and the new one uses the tech well
@@TheAnimeBookClub does it make a differents if i watch the new one one or is there no differents in the story? Like how big are the Changes in the story if there even are changes
@@gloryvampire3343 so the first movie 1.11 is a pretty accurate retelling of the first four episodes of the original series, up until this fight in 2.22 it's pretty to the original but then it goes in it's own direction - noticable difference in plot and events that occur
@@TheAnimeBookClub hmm which should i watch the new or the old?
@@gloryvampire3343 both, watch the original first for context
Both of them look extremely gorgeous with fluid animation and smooth movements even tho i prefer the old one..... I can't deny that the exaggerated version of the new one doesn't look good also the facial expressions look better in the new one
Doing more with less and doing the most with more as they say
The original still looks amazing 🤩
吹き替えの声が大人すぎるだろ
Old school animation is really something
There's something special about that old style of animation
no 3d discomfort
Give props to the creator of neon genesis evangelion. Man has milk this series so many times, and we still watch every single version he drops. Fucking legendary
Both were beautiful to watch
I just love the original evas timing snd color pallet more
I really prefer the original version’s animation better. Just knowing it was all hand drawn and had a shoestring budget plays into the ending and it just makes everything grittier
TLDR: basically a rant about how the animation industry in general mistreats its talents.
Working on a "shoestring budget" I feel isn't something to be lauded on, feels like struggle pron to me
The work culture for these dudes even back then is pretty shit and it hasn't gotten that much better now. Don't get me wrong, pushing through insurmountable odds is a pretty commendable thing to do in most fields, but it just gives the bigwigs more incentive to do jackshit when it comes to helping animators just live because "passion" will get them through regardless.
Animators deserve be compensated with atleast livable wages especially when they create stuff as visually compelling as this, we're still a long way off though.
Personally, I think this is more like Anno flexing that he finally has a budget. LOL!
2.22 best rebuild eva movie. Good art, good soundtrack, it's perfect
when the angel attacking, the classic feels more dramatic, maybe because of the colors
The top one is cleaner but the bottom one is more crispy.
perfect.
i absolutely love that its almost a 1:1 remake
They really hit the:
“➡️⬇️ *A* ⬇️➡️⬆️”
One of the main reasons that I love the original is that it isn't afraid to take its time with things. From what I've seen, Evangelion has done this the best. They made the Evas have weight, like they were real. They followed through with movements. Each action has a counter action. The new one doesn't have this. When the Eva-1 was running up the mountain the foot stayed like it had to push the rest of the mech up, unlike the new one. The same thing with the landing, the old one stayed there to regain balance instead of just running off again
they animated it on twos instead of ones
it looks clunky bcuz of that
But the new one does the same thing. The foot pauses there for a second.
ya as much as I loved the remake (and didn't watch the original lol) the mech's movement felt a little light in that scene while the environment reacted properly to the weight, I thought maybe they wanted to make it feel a little more organic or something.
Mecha animation overall seems to be a rarer skill in modern animation, or maybe just too costly.
La versión de los 90 FOREVER
Eva 94 really did a good job... Mqking that scene without any CGI
New one actually still goes well
holy crap. i remember watching a bootleg VHS version of the original on my older brothers 19 inch tube tv when i was a kid. i also remember being very confused by the ending. i had no idea they remade it. very cool.
Def a throwback - similar but has its own story that drastically changes at a certain point
Well… it’s not a remake. I know it’s confusing but the rebuild series is more of a series of movies that reimagine the whole thing with each movie having a specific theme and message from Ano. 1.11 is the only genuine remake. 2.22 is fan service or how some fans wanted the girls to act. 3.33 is a mind fuck or how Ano wanted the series to be seen. 4.44 is a message from Ano to his fans. He basically tells you, “we had a good run. It was fun. Stop being a shut in and go outside.”
@@jasonb5596the rebuilds are secuels of end of evangelion
It's not a remade, it's a sequel in four movies.
@@kritozom it is not a sequel. There’s hints that it might be like the caskets on the moon. But it’s more of an art piece based on Anno.
The colors of the original are superior.
Both are stunningly incredible to look at. It's hard to compare the two when they're both done so well.
Bro they both look amazing. That was done in the 90s 😱
Newer version may look fancier, but it's the 94 version that gives me goosebumps to this day.
They both look amazing
no they don't only the 94 looks good
Damn 94 is sooo good
These kids did more damage to Tokyo-3 than the damn angels themselves!!!
I really miss this anime in a nostalgic way. I wish i could rewatch and experience it all over again like the first time
I haven't seen either of these versions of the anime honestly. Both these styles totally have their perks.
I love the fluid motion of the 2.22, but the crisp lines of the debris in the 94 version give the scene with the AT field a whole new feel for the machine's power! Both look incredible in their own ways!
THIS IS HOW YOU DO A REMAKE OF AN ANIME!!
Shinji casually breaking thr sound barrier while naruto run
Retro so cool, because of its all a hand made art.
The new one actually proves just HOW good the old one really was. The scenes are literally identical and it can be argued better animated without that glitchy GCI look unnatural synthetic fluidity that looks like it’s skipping frames. Yet again just another example of they don’t make em like they used to 😔
The CGI looks really good wdym?
@@UMIF001 Yeah,for me it adds the "extraterrestrial" feeling,and is in some ultra high quality
They can't , because they did it with traditional cells and it's largely incompatible with the old footage , traditional cels are largely phase out and you can't buy that anymore in Japan. I knew this because I'm an animator who work for anime studios
@@pauloazuela8488 you can still animate in 2d without cels
The person in control of the channel had to chop up both moments so they matched, because the whole running to the enemy etc in the 2.2 version lasts way longer.
It doesn't " feel like " frames are chopped, they literally are, and not by the movie.
Even side by side it's clear as day how much more impressive the original animations were. But ofcourse both are great.
This show was so well crafted it amaze me even to this day. The staging and assembly and music, the sound desing. Everything is done with minutia and inspiration. Evanglion is an artistic gift
Classic one looks so pure
Gainax dude, they make great stuff. Love FLCL and Gurren Lagann.
Anno left Gainax in 2006 and subsequently founded Studio Khara, which animated, the rebuild movies
You can see how much care the animators put into both series

No anime in history is comparing to the big hitters we have rn
@@salamander-101 you're blinded by stupidity
Nothing is gonna beat the 94 animation of this series.
That shit gives me goosebumps every time..
The shot where 01 is speeding up is really what sells 94's version for me, the illustration is so clean and appealing
God, the Rebuild movies are so damned good. I felt the same kind of energy I felt when I watched the OG series as a kid.
Still can’t believe shinji just goes along with all of this with no explanation.
He literally doesn't
All three of them catching it together makes the 94 so much better
it’s like a well-mannered kid vs a good child…
The thing that og Eva makes better is the weight of the animation, just look at Asuka's fight in EOE and compared it to any of the fight sequences from the Rebuild movies.
Mitsuo Iso is god.
really interesting how the scale is so much different between the two versions, where the original seems to be just above the treeline and 2.22 seems to be towering above buildings like nothing
What's crazy is I've Rewatched this clip maybe hundreds of times and I just noticed what you talking about - the rebuild evas are massive lol
The Eva units got massively resized from the original.
'94 vibes are the greatest
Old is gold
94 version just hits different. It's so well made, and I'll proudly say I'm watching it for the 3rd time and it never gets boring.
it's not well made. cgi filled garbage and weightless animation
old one looks better 4 me
This show was so under rated I loved watching this then watching big o after who remembers big o
It’s crazy seeing what things are better in both versions! I little microcosm of what’s prioritized then and now based on the new hardware
Incredible to think that they remade an already iconic show and improved on it
Improved? Pls elaborate, its more hi def and fluid. But the angel redesign seems a lot more generic and less identifiable, the tramwork scene is basically inexistent, there is a lot more cheap digital particle work that obscured the meca design and seems a lot less dire with the neon green glow when 01 catches the angel. The shot with the eva the angel and the mountain is way less interesting because its not showing the thing from below its all like a drone aerial shot. I don't say its bad. But the original seems way better on a side to side comparison.
*One was made with traditional hand drawing technique, the other used 3D assets to reinforce their drawing, both are amazing in their own right, but with new tools you can create more that you couldn't with the traditional method*
94 version just has an extra punch to it
Old school looks ahead of its time
This new era could never beat the 90s
Nostalgia does not equal better. Stop glazing
@@dabbingraccoons6416 no glazing needed, pen and paper was just a better medium for anime. you can just look at the difference in style in the big three or dragonball z to super. The transition to digital was terrible for the medium. Not to mention Akira or any miyazaki film of that era. New digital era is just dog shit.
@@yondaimesin Bro go watch a well funded new anime like demon slayer or jjk and tell me that pen and paper was a better anime medium
Eva 2.22 is my favorite Rebuild movie
This scene is one of the reason why
New version = feels watching anime
Old version = feels watching movie
Probably my second favorite scene of the movie ; and God THAT soundrack, chef's kiss
Watched the ‘94 version for the first time this year, it’s absolutely beautiful, it gives me a nostalgic and depressed vibe , the only flaw for me in the og version is the sound of the battles
from the artist point of view , i think they would agree that they outdid themselves than they did way back then. the old one doesnt look bad but the newer blows it out of the water , time and experience makes them better at their craft
I love both Rebuild and OG!
The rebuilds actually do look pretty great but the original is also amazing looking still and that 90’s aesthetic has aged so well
Wtf have people been smoking!! The 2.22 clearly looks way better
I saw that giant purple robot in an old Vanossgaming Gmod video and had no idea where it was from
You mean Eva 01.
@@ThinkingCrimson at the time when I first saw that video I didn't even watch anime, in fact I started watching anime about 2 1/2 years ago
This is really cool. Its almost like looking at two differet art styles. Only other thing that needs adding is the music.
I wish Eva had more of them working together like this, this is by far my favorite episode for that reason.
