The End of Everything: An Evangelion Essay
Neon Genesis Evangelion is an anime series created and directed by Hideaki Anno. The original series aired from 1995 to 1996. A number of films have been released since. And with Evangelion’s Netflix debut in 2019, the show has experienced something of a resurgence in popularity. The fourth and final installment of Evangelion’s Rebuild film series was released in August of this year. There have been multiple Evangelion “endings'' at this point, all of which I’ll be discussing in this video.
