Neon Genesis Evangelion: The Complete Series

Product Information

There are references to esoteric mysticism such as Lilith, the Chamber of Guf, and the Spear of Longinus; the names of all the Angels are borrowed from Judeo-Christian mythology, and even the supercomputers are named after the traditional Three Wise Men. Evangelion has been interpreted and re-interpreted and RE-RE interpreted over the course of the last twenty years, with each frame and shot of the movie being picked apart and explained in great detail, and now that the series and movies have been bumped up to High Definition, even more conversations and discussions are waiting to be had in the forum that is the anime fandom. Also, if this matters to you, “Fly Me to the Moon” is not available on any of the sets; instead we get the melancholy “Rei I” piano track over the Japanese credits. Rebirth was the prototype for the new version of episode 25, and with a few alterations, it would eventually form the first part of The End of Evangelion.

You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. You also get Evangelion: Death (TRUE) 2 (Also known as Evangelion: Death and Rebirth) and The End of Evangelion. Show spoiler] So since "Fly Me to the Moon" has been used in trailers and teasers for other anime and games makes me think it's not the song itself that is so expensive to use (or at least a 1 time use), I more have the feeling that one party is to greedy.

Like, yes, due to social media, there’s been a bit more interaction between international fans and anime staff, but there’s little to no evidence it makes creative differences. Also worth noting is that the discs that include the original dubs also include Japanese audio with English subtitles, and those subtitles are based on the ADV translation (for the TV series) and Manga Entertainment translations (for the two films).

And let’s be real, a lot of the artwork that’s included has probably been online for public consumption for the last 20 years or more.It's features beautiful and, often, horrific imagery, answering questions as well as creating new ones, and an ending that is true to the anime's roots.
