Rejoice, "Evangelion" fans of America, for you finally have a chance to see the saga's conclusion in a theater. "Evangelion: 3.0 + 1.0 Thrice Upon A Time" had a (very successful) theatrical run in its native Japan, but international audiences had to settle for a Prime Video release in August 2021.

"Evangelion" is a dense show, both textually and visually. It employs surreal imagery and rapid editing; some scenes look like you're watching them through a kaleidoscope. On top of that, it forces you to piece together its lore on your own. There's nary a MacGuffin or symbol in the show that isn't named for Judeo-Christian theology.
Since "Evangelion" never holds the audiences' hand, it's been subjected to countless, conflicting interpretations. Matt Greenfield, who wrote the first English dub of "Evangelion" for Adv Films, outright called the anime, "a Rorschach test" — what you get out of it...
