Summary of Neon Genesis Evangelion
Evangelion, certainly one of the most popular--and arguably one of the best--animes ever produced, is the rare sci-fi series that actually follows through on the ambitious themes and ideas it presents. The series is set in the 21st century, 15 years after what was supposedly a meteorite struck Antarctica, wiping out half the population of the Earth while leaving the rest to contend with rising sea levels and figure out exactly what happened. Chief among the mysteries is the arrival of the Angels, an alien race who are possibly responsible for the subsequent attacks on Tokyo. Humanity's only hope for survival is the powerful humanoid warrior Evangelion, created by the NERV organization and piloted by a group of genius teenagers.
