Review of Neon Genesis Evangelion

my first review :) at first glance at the series, honestly i wasn't sure of how i feel for the conclusion that it came. i thought it was a reckless way to finish it, leaving the viewers confused and not convincing enough to call it a "happy or bad" ending. in my personal opinion i watched several depictions and character explanations in YouTube to see if my way of understanding it was somehow relevant. in my behalf for those who are hesitant if they are gonna watch evangelion or not, these three key factors are somewhat for me the best this series has to offer first:is its realistic approach to the characters.
evangelion is known not for its mecha suits or moe girls or half naked scenes... its about the nature of the characters mind. it lets you interpret those expressions in your own personal preference and gives the characters different outlook on each and every viewer (in my opinion) to make it simple enough.. you may relate for the characters pertaining to their struggles, and like them. or resent them for what they've done. again its in your judgement if they are like-able or not.

second: the mystery that revolves in its universe
to be honest halfway through the show the mystery is what made me stay. i was so hooked on knowing its secrets that made it very very interesting. the pacing is descent and the turn of events are certainly great. i personally think that its flow is better than the movies because it gives a better understanding on each situation and scenarios given to us viewers

third: the unexpected ending..
this has no spoilers of whatsoever but i can say that its ending is not what ive expected and wanted.. but at the end i was satisfied (ironic enough) again i looked at some deep explanations with the help of the net and as a conclusion i loved it and somehow hate it. it gave me a hard time if this is a good show or a trainwreck. and in a weird way i cant stop thinking about evangelion! no kidding..
it was like a loved one that you are irritated with but at the end of the day you sleep together knowing that his/her side is within yours. i know its a weird analogy, but that made me realize "i fucking love it but i still hate it"

evangelion is like something that you will be addicted to. you want more, the lore, the ambiance and overall the enigmatic presence it gives the viewers a personal conclusion of the story.

watch it and see for yourself. dont let others discourage you for watching it. thats all i can say to it.

my overall is:
sound 10/10 characters feel real
art 7/10 due to its repetitive scenes
enjoyment 10/10
overall 9/10 for me
