Returning guest NewtypeLady is back to talk with me about the
1995 smash-hit, Neon Genesis Evangelion--another
Gainax series that takes place in the “distant future of 2015″ (and
celebrates it’s 20th anniversary this year!) Even with this
extra-long episode, we only touch the tip of the iceberg on what
makes this series tick & why it’s considered such an important
piece of work. Listen as we discuss why it’s a mecha show that’s
not a mecha show, our feelings towards these character’s
feelings, and the many reasons why we wish this series was
not currently out of print in the US.
