#Neon genesis evangelion death and rebirth english dub hd movie#
The Death section of the first movie is an interesting, non-linear look at the events of the first 24 episodes of the TV series. While both films are split into two parts each, Death and Rebirth is ultimately just a teaser for the real revelations to come. That something more came in the form of Neon Genesis Evangelion: Death and Rebirth and The End of Evangelion. Some fans liked the conclusion, but the vast majority of hardcore fans felt betrayed and demanded something more. But, when it came time for the series to conclude, the final two episodes were told almost completely with production art, scrap cells and stock footage from the point of view from inside Shinji's mind. Starting as a 26 episode TV series from the depressed mind of Hideaki Anno (who later did His and Her Circumstances) and the animation studio Gainax, the series quickly gained both a fan following and a lot of press coverage. Evangelion quite simply ushered in a new era of anime, and still to this day, stands as one of the most highly debated series ever. The first of the long sought after Neon Genesis Evangelion movies have finally arrived and fans couldn't be happier. Neon Genesis Evangelion: Death and Rebirth DVDĪ nice recap and teaser, but little more than that. You are currently viewing an archived back issue of Animefringe Online Magazine.
