Review of Neon Genesis Evangelion

People who watch NGE usually feel 3 reactions afterwords: They loved it, they hated it, or they didn't understand it. Before I talk about why I love this series I have to list the flaws. 1) Due to budget issues some episodes were... not exactly episodes. Watch the show and you'll know what I mean. 2) The main character comes off as a whiny coward. 3) Repetition. With that being said, I love this series with a passion. Philosophy, violence, themes of growing up, puberty, the conflict, the (extremely) well developed characters, overcoming low self-esteem, etc., etc., etc. They are all the things I love andthey are the things that make Evangelion stand out as a series.

Now I'm not going to lie, if you can't look past the flaws and if you are a happy person who considers everyone with emotion issues 'emo' then you'll probably hate this series.

However whether NGE is hated or loved, nobody can deny that it is a classic and every anime fan should give it a shot.
