    im only just getting into anime. who can tell me more about EVANGELION??

    Evangelion is mostly about a teenage kid named Shinji getting forced into piloting a Giant Battle Robot and protecting the world from invaders. The direction is artsy, but Shinji whines a lot and there's no shortage of teen angst. Some people really dig the show, but others can't stand it.

    Really? You mean Gigantor or Tobor, the Eighth Man? I ain't seen them since I was 11 years old. Come to think of it, I haven't seen any anime since I was 11 years old.
