why non netflix? i watched netflix version. did i miss something? i know they changed the outro music or something

TheMightyAnt

again i recommend 1-26 then end of eva. also the non netflix version

TheMightyAnt

yay child abuse the anime!

Matter

Pretty much just what Gordon Weaver commented, though I'd recommend looking into the non-Netflix options that they mentioned.

Gordon Weaver

Should probably clarify that the titles of the four rebuild movies are: Evangelion 1.0: You Are (Not) Alone Evangelion 2.0: You Can (Not) Advance Evangelion 3.0: You Can (Not) Redo Evangelion 3.0+1.0: Thrice Upon a Time

Gordon Weaver

Just to add my two cents, would recommend a watch order of 1-26, End of Evangelion and then the four rebuild movies. Episodes 21-24 should be longer than a regular episode to ensure you have the right copy (Director's Cut version of the four episodes). Netflix version is probably fine for the easiest way to watch. They do however cut out the EDs and have subs that some might consider wonky. If you're willing to explore other options (similar to Monogatari) I'd recommend the [McBalls] and [Baws] releases of Evangelion, or [Anime Time] if you just want to get everything at once. You can probably get them the same place you got the [MTBB] subs for Monogatari. These releases look better, feel better, taste better, are more accurate and dance better than the Netflix release. But honestly it's not a huge deal either way, Evangelion is still a classic no matter how you watch it. Hope you guys enjoy and I look forward to your reactions!

Rebuild movies after the series is a must 🙏

I'm sure people have said. But do episodes 1-26 of Evangelion tv show followed by End of Eva. A good two week break or so and then watch the Rebuild movies which are a closing to the world of Evangelion as a whole. People will say they're not connected to the tv show at all, but without getting into huge spoilers, that's 100% false. They ARE connected and aren't standalone pieces of media to be consumed even though people thought they were with the first film and a portion of the second film. But definitely don't watch them right after End of Eva. 18TH IS GOING TO BE HYPE!

I'd recommend 1-26 to End of Eva and then the rebuild movies

Brian Maynard

Oh, hell yeah!!! It's time for depression!

JNES

I think the Rebuild movies should have their own poll since they are an alternate version of the story.

Aaron Griffin

Don't you dare skip the opening. It's a crime in Japan

Morgan Vh

question for repliers: isnt the netflix not as ideal? i remember that it doesnt have the 'fly me to the moon' ED's and maybe some wonky subs? i could be wrong though. its probably good enough though. but in general, watch order is the complete series episodes 1-26, then End of Evangelion. no need for death/rebirth. after that, rebuild movies?

TheMightyAnt

In gendo we trust

TheMightyAnt

Hopefully after eva we can get gurren bc imo they are asking the same question but with different answers

Jasmine Tea Enjoyer

EVA INCOMING PEAK INCOMING ASUKA INCOMING

Luke

sigh one day cg will win

Agustin Machak

My man Kamina is getting disrespected

Random

Wow this is a tough vote.

Saiki

Man, It's been at least 10 years since I last watched Evangelion. I remember not really understanding a lot about it and, to be honest, my memories are so hazy it feels more like a fever dream of my 13 year mind than actual memories of watching the show. Anyways, I hope Code Geass and Gurren Laggan get a second chance/third chance in the future, all three are certified bangers and for completely different reasons.

Noctislolig

Speak for yourself lol. After watching 15 hours of a breakdown and theological explanation I can proudly say that I finally understand about 20% of the show.

TheMightyAnt

do you watch a guy by the name of psyculturists? he watched eva and anaylzed the hell out of by a therapist pov

TheMightyAnt

oh it would be sooooo good to see neon with you guys

Vu D

Stop voting Eva none of us understands it

Azelfan

While I love Code Geass and was one of my first anime and only saw Eva a year or two ago myself, I really haven't seen too many Eva reactions around compared to CG and I found it to be really great, so hoping for Eva now and Code Geass eventually or after, also with CG being 50 eps and Eva being shorter it'll come soon enough. Not too easy a decision though as I like both of em.

Plugsuit

Had NGE on VHS tape back then. Time for a rewatch. End of Eva is mind-blowing. The other two I didn't watch, so either of the three is fine. Maybe time for something new.

Verols

I guess I’ll finally get around to watching the end of Eva and possibly reboots if they get to them

momomi

My favorite is Gurren Lagann, but I think they'll have a better reaction to Code Geass, and I think the one that will be the most interesting to discuss is Eva.

Paweł Kuś

3 great anime, but Gurenn Lagann is sometimes life-changing experience

Wano Godly

Smh

0451Jim

COME ON EVA YOU GOT THIS

SecondCityKyle

Eva needs a good YT reaction where people will actually take the time to talk about the themes, the other two have been done to death

Animeke

Code Geass, I BELIEVE!

Without A Net

Next time Symphogear fans, next time

Abraham Ortiz

Evangelion for the win!

Dragloncon

Evangelion gonna provide for many rich discussions. Easily one of the best anime out there

Dragloncon

Thats up to interpretation.

BigManSirob

Gurren Lagann fans please vote Code Geass 🙏 If you do I promise we'll return the favour next time :)

Balurion

I feel like it'd make for the most interesting discussions by far.

Wano Godly

Please get the votes for Geass up!!!

Wano Godly

Omg why do yall want them to watch Eva….

Nima Sarang

Same. I guess at least Gurren Lagann is half-decent and fun to watch.

Troco72

They would absolutely adore that show. Both ben and Anna would have a majority of their favorite elements of anime, present in that show, and pretty much from the beginning too. Short show too. Hope they put it on a poll!

Greybeard

None of them, but that's just my preference.

Joe Tucker

Praise Gurren 🙌 someday you will get the reaction love you deserve

AsbestosDust

Remember guys, before you vote think of JIBUN WO

James

Neon Genesis Evangelion is certainly one of the most influential anime of all time, and has been studied by those in academia. I consider NGE as one of the “big 3” anime of the 90s with the other two being Ghost in the Shell and Cowboy Bebop. Of course, I also enjoyed watching Studio Ghibli movies back then. And FYI, the Steins;Gate Re:Boot visual novel is expected to be released sometime this year. Some say it’s more than a remake, and we will see.

Death2boredom

I'll put a vote for Code Geass but NGE will probably win given how "passionate" the fans of it are.

Daniel Borrego

please make a 12 episode anime catagory. you have waaaay too many long shows on these.

Morgan Vh

they did the boys until S2ish, but had to stop because of copyright. wish it would come back

Joshua

Will you guys also do western/live action series or movies?

GhostPhil

All of them are great, but I have to go with Code Geass.

smth positive_

Hope Vivy Fluorite Eyes Song will be in a future poll 🥹

Morgan Vh

NGE needs to happen... (also orb mentioned🔥)

Meow_Lin

If...IF Neon Genesis wins you guys. No matter what people say...DO NOT SKIP THE REBUILD MOVIES! People will say they're not related, but they are 100% connected! But most certainly take a good break before watching them so you can digest what you've watched!
