The beloved and iconic ’90s anime series Neon Genesis Evangelion is making its way to Netflix, marking the first time it’s ever been available on a streaming platform. All 26 episodes, including films The End of Evangelion and Evangelion: Death (True)2, will be available on June 21. Since its debut in 1995, Evangelion has remained one of the most influential and lauded anime of all time, attracting new fans even in 2019.
The story centers on a clandestine organization known as NERV, which recruits teenagers to pilot enormous mechs called Evangelion (or EVA) units. The narrative pits humanity against terrifying creatures known as Angels, which are attempting to set off a chain of events that will destroy the world. Whether you’re a longtime Evangelion fan or a newbie who can’t wait to see what all the fuss is about, and if the show’s long-awaited Netflix debut still seems too far away, here are a few other suggestions to help pass the time until June 21.
