Finally.
Hideaki Anno¡¯s ¡±Evangelion: 3.0 + 1.0: Thrice Upon a Time,¡± which began streaming internationally on Amazon Prime on Aug. 13, is the film that anime fans have awaited for 25 years. The fourth and final theatrical feature in the ¡°rebuild¡± of his landmark 1995-96 television series, ¡°Neon Genesis Evangelion,¡± brings the epic adventure to a definitive conclusion.
A compelling, complex work that mixes mecha battles with apocalyptic Christian symbols, Jewish mysticism and teenage angst, ¡°Evangelion¡± (pronounced eh-van-GEH-lee-on, with a hard G) ranks among the most widely discussed TV series in anime history. Its influence is extensive and includes Japanese animated fantasies and Guillermo del Toro¡¯s 2013 sci-fi adventure ¡°Pacific Rim.¡± And fans continue to debate its significance, subtext and details.
