Summary:
In the year 2015, the Angels, huge, tremendously powerful, alien war machines, appear in Tokyo for the second time. The only hope for Mankind`s survival lies in the Evangelion, a humanoid fighting machine developed by NERV, a special United Nations agency. Capable of withstanding anything the Angels can dish out, the Evangelion`s one drawback lies in the limited number of people able to pilot them. Only a handful of teenagers, all born fourteen years ago, nine months after the Angels first appeared, are able to interface with the Evangelion. One such teenager is Shinji Ikari, whose father heads the NERV team that developed and maintains the Evangelion. Thrust into a maelstrom of battle and events that he does not understand, Shinji is forced to plumb the depths of his own inner resources for the courage and strength to not only fight, but to survive, or risk losing everything.

This is actually the first anime that I seriously got into and did it get me :). I couldn't put it down! My friend had to pry it away from me, although I resisted a lot. It's such a dramatic concept. I know it's not real and everything, but I think for 1995, it was brilliant. And I love the Evas. I feel like each has its own personality a little, even though I know they aren't "human" and only controlled. But Eva-02 I think is so Asuka, Eva-00 I can only see with Rei. And who doesn't like Touji, Kensuke, and especially Pen-Pen! I want a penguin just like him!~
