dont think so lol, just people killin people usin powers ans shizit and swords lol

no nothing to do with religion.... except for the fact that the enemies are called "The Angels", but they don't look like angels thou.

I really, really like Neon Genesis Evangelion!

It does have a bit to do with Christianity.. apart from the robots in it being called Evangelions, there are quite a few bible references and so on. The attacks by the angels are apparantly close what is said in the Dead Sea Scrolls (an ancient Jewish script). What with it concerning the fate of humanity, it has quite a lot to do with every religion really..

You've got me remembering it now, I think I'll watch it some more at some point!

I'm not sure about the last 2 episodes becoming much clearer if you switch on your brain. You seemed geared to read it through the director's life, but you could just as easily think of it through seperate points of view within the characters. They're certainly open to interpretation. ..I guess you are quite onto something when it shows the different ways the series could've gone, but they're just as much different ways the character's lives could've gone. Hm.. haven't seen them for a while, think I'll be watching them too!

Anyway, Shinji isn't too bad of a character. I find it is still quite easy to relate to him (it's tough being one of the few possibilities to save the human race, afterall, with such an estranged father), and he's not overly passive (Lain, anyone?).

I have the hole serie ^^
And a Evangelium is a chapter in the bibel and the lance of longinus of what it is called is the lance or spear that cut Jesus or something like that.
And the Tree of life was the tree that make's you imortol or something...(somewere in the bibel do you find it lol)^^

Adult swim announced that it will show Evangelion, although they haven't released an official air date I'm guessing sometime early next year.

NEXT YEAR!!!!!!!!!! NO!!!!!! that too long

That's only a guess they could all ways sow it earlierlike in August or October. But until the just take in slow calm and soothing breaths and just be happy that their going to show it at all.

Seshop apart from the baddies being called angels... not that I can see...

(Oh and PLEASE no more chain mail!!!)

I watched it a bit but i didn't really get into it cause it was halfway through a series so it was really confusing

oooo ooo... Its not religious...
I read the answer to this bit...
They used parts of Christianity as it is a REALLY small religion in jpan comparatively... and cos it was mailny unknown and seemed dark... not one of the producing team was christian...


got that sorted...
