'Evangelion' and Reflecting on the Human Condition

'Evangelion' shaped the anime industry in the years after its initial release by creating a story and lore in the mecha genre that have inspired decades of discussion and debate. Ionatan and Ravi get in the robot to discuss how the franchise is a deeply personal reflection of its creator, Hideaki Anno, and how it uses the psychological state of its characters to explore the human condition. They break down the original television series, 'The End of Evangelion' movie, and the Rebuild films now that they're complete with a worldwide release.
