I didn't know the thing existed before this spring, until a good friend of mine started to tell me that "you must see Evangelion".
I've been practically living in a barrel before I got an internet connection after a few years of not having one.
And I'm not particularly interested in anime (this is the first series I'll see), well not yet, because the only way I can see some is to leech off friends, since my comp and connection, well, suck big. But, today, I'm expecting to get at least three to four hours of NGE watched, and the rest of the series by the end of this week.

A perfect example of how beliefs don't affect personalities that much... one doesn't have to be a total bastard to be an atheist (if that's what you're referring to, that is).

Another good one IMO to watch is Escaflowne... not the movie, mind you, but the series. Full Metal Panic is also good... have that as fansubs... haven't seen any other good ones yet... my wife isn't too fond of how women are drawn so I have to watch them when she's not home... *sighs*

No kidding! 
Err, anyways. I'm going to write an analysis of it on my webpage... I think that there is no one Evangelion, there is only the Eva we see ourselves. Eva is different for everyone, people have such different frames of reference. Also, I don't think Eva is good or bad. It's Evangelion. It's not comparable to such mundane terms as 'good' or 'bad'. You can't compare it to anything.
What is important is that this analysis will be written after watching it once, and just after the series. As the times of viewing and the perception of it changes, I'll write a new analysis, to monitor the transformation in my view of it.
I haven't seen EoE or DaR yet, unfortunately. Probably in the near future.

Yeah, that's what you have to do... my cousin (who he and I own the DVD set together) has shown me some anime music videos... well guess what? Part of the last battle is on there... he almost got a beating for that one. |
True. Goodness gracious, even some song titles are spoilers... and considering how old NGE is (8 years, about? gotta check), people might not look into spoiler protection that well. Heck, I've got a friend who has seen truckloads of anime but not a scrap of Eva.

Now.. are we discussing religion / philosophy here? |
We could do that, but I'm afraid that any thought I'll air from the region will be laden, at the moment, with Eva spoilers. And even if it isn't, anyone reading this might think so.

Hmm.....
I need some New Caledonian Beer, P4PSI, and some Fungal Gin. How much would it cost me?

When did that happen? 
Dodging spoilers while surfing is quite a pain, tho... if I see anywhere the words "Neon" or "Evangelion" or "NGE", I just scream and hit Alt + F4 as if my life depended on it. 
) If anyone out there sees a copy of "I My Me - Strawberry Eggs" out there, I encourage you to pick it up. You won't be disappointed.
He's right... he's intitled to his opinion... no matter how wrong I think he is... likewise I am... no matter how wrong he thinks I am.
