Now a new organization, NERV, enters the scene with technology unmatched by the rest of the world with their large combats unit named Evangelions.

Brilliance, pure brilliance. The series throws around religious symbolism like candy on Halloween. The character development is probably the best I've ever seen, the plot is amazing, the music amazing. Sure, you may not understand what happens at times, or at all, but when you finally do figure it out, you'll have a new appreciation for the series. Don't watch this series if you think it's a "mecha", the emphasis is not on the fighting, though some of the battles are pretty cool. Easily one of my favorite series.
