## Description

Product Description The landmark anime Evangelion evolves, reaching new heights of intensity in the feature film: Evangelion 2.22. In this explosive new story, brutal action and primal emotion clash as a group of young pilots maneuver their towering cyborg Eva Units into combat against a deadly and disturbing enemy. In the battle to prevent the apocalyptic Third Impact, Shinji and Rei were forced to carry humanity's hopes on their shoulders. Now, as the onslaught of the bizarre, monstrous Angels escalates, they find their burden shared by two new Eva pilots, the fiery Asuka and the mysterious Mari. In this thrilling experience for fans of giant robot destruction, the young pilots fight desperately to save mankind - and struggle to save themselves. In You Can (Not) Advance, the second installment in his four-feature retelling of Neon Genesis Evangelion, Hideaki Anno diverges further from the original storyline--and pushes the visual boundaries of his epic. Shinji and Rei share a more amicable relationship, but Shinji's fragile calm is shattered by the arrival of pilot Asuka Langley Shikinami. She single-handedly destroys the Seventh Angel, a fantastic creature that suggests a tarantula designed by Gustave Eiffel. This version of Asuka is even more abrasive than the original, and complains more bitterly about being ordered to share quarters with Shinji. When the experimental Eva Asuka is testing mutates, Commander Ikari forces Shinji to attack it, even though it may cause her death. Horrified at his brutality, Shinji quits--until a new, more powerful Angel strikes at NERV headquarters. Seeing Rei absorbed by the Angel, Shinji charges back to rescue her. The power supply to his Eva fails, but Shinji forces it to continue fighting through sheer will power. It mutates into what Ritsuko calls "a divine being" that may cause the Third Impact. While the storyline of the films is tighter than the TV program, it's no less convoluted: Kaji brings Commander Ikari "the Key of Nebuchadnezzar;" the SEELE cabal continues their plotting to bring about the Human Instrumentality Project, which is somehow linked to the Dead Sea Scrolls. Anno adds some new characters, notably pilot Mari Makinami Illustrious. The larger budget of the feature films is clearly evident: the backgrounds are more carefully rendered, the cinematography more imaginative, the animation more polished and special effects more special. The scenes of the three Evas running in a coordinated attack have unprecedented weight and power. The prismatic colors, thunderous explosions and eerie lighting in the final battle show that like the original TV series, Anno's new vision will be influencing artists on both sides of the Pacific for years to come. The Neon Genesis Evangelion Movies are must-haves for any otaku or student of animation, and fans can only wait impatiently until the third film appears.

Review: Great movie by ANY standards, not just Anime - I won't say much about the plot of the movie because it has been detailed here in the two hundred plus reviews, but as they have stated, it is intense, fantastic and you should pick this movie up and the first one, even if you don't like anime or animation, or just want to see what the medium is capable of. There is some nudity, but I assume you people are mature and won't have an aneurism over it. Besides, there isn't much. On the art and animation front; the scenes and characters are well drawn and consistent, with the animation and movement of the characters and sets being fluid and smooth. I didn't find any one part of the film that seemed lower quality than another. The designs for the Evangellion (the giant robots) are by my standards, cool and interesting to look at. I am going to preface the part about the voice acting by saying I am one of those people who generally prefer subs to dubs, and this movie is no exception. By no means is the dub for this movie "bad" by any stretch of the imagination (it' won't make your ears bleed), I just think that the original voice cast with subtitles is the superior version. Honestly if you like a good story, don't mind some minor nudity, and are willing to give something that is animated rather than live action a chance, Evangellion is the movie for you. Take the plunge, you won't regret it. The DVD also comes with a pamphlet that details key terms (such as what an AT field is and what the Second Impact was) as well as slight character background. included also is the design process behind the characters, Evangellions, and angels. All in all, it's a cool little extra that will help you get a basic understanding if you are new to the franchise. (Please note that this is the second movie in the Evangelion series and preceded by "Evangellion 1.11: You Are (Not) Alone), but if you read a synopsis of the first one it will make sense. Well, as much sense as "Evangellion" can be said to make) Tell your friends...
Review: Movie improves on the franchise's story and sets the bar for sequels to come - Most times, movie studios choose to make sequels because they either want to make a quick cash-in based on the popularity of a film franchise or continue the story the first installment established. Evangelion 2.22 is both yet it does not feel like a cheap quick-buck film nor does it feel rushed in regards to the pacing in its' story. The sequel expands on what the first film covered and continues to do so. To keep this review spoiler-free, I'll just explain what's already been known. We are introduced to new characters, specifically Mari Makinami, who you see at the very beginning of the film taking on one of the Angels, term given to alien beings that descend from space, in one of the most exciting and well-executed battles in the film. The second "new" character is Asuka Shikinami, who we see battle an angel around the first 15 minutes of the film. Like in the original series, Asuka sees herself as superior to Shinji and Rei concerning piloting an Eva and things don't start too well when they are first introduced. Meanwhile, Gendo Ikari, Shinji's father, is still just as secretive as he was in the series and in the last film but as we progress into the film, more details surface concerning what he has planned for Nerv headquarters and to the world population. The film loosely covers episodes 8-19 of the original series. Old fans will notice several references and changes to the story around the first hour but the film then takes a very wild and unique direction near the final 15 minutes. Believe me when I say this, you'll be eager to know what happens next and wonder how the director and producers will be able to top this. Take note that the film does not have an MPAA rating like the first film did. Evangelion 1.11 was released with a PG-13 rating; this was released unrated so I'll list what you need to watch for if kids younger than 15 are watching. Concerning content, this film is very violent and the battles between the Evas and the Angels can get quite bloody especially the fight between Eva unit-01 and Eva unit-03. There is some profanity, some of it is audible and some is covered with sound effects. There is [only] one audible F word at the very beginning of the film, before the movie title shows up. There is no sex whatsoever in the film but there are a few scenes with little nudity but it is not presented in a sexual manner. There are thematic elements throughout the film, focused mostly on Shinji's distant relationship with his father, Asuka's social detachment from people, and Rei's attempts to reach Shinji in a emotional method. Overall, this was an excellent film that will attract even non-fans of the series and individuals who are even remotely interested in anime. And blu-ray is the way to go! Highly recommended!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Who Said Remakes Suck?
*by B***. on April 28, 2011*

I won't give any spoilers but this the second movie of four to be made, re-making the mid 1990s number one anime Neon Genesis Evangelion was worth the wait. Those of us in the USA have been waiting patiently for two years, since it's Japanese release, for it to be doubed in English and released in the states. It was well worth the wait! Doubed using most of the original US cast, and the imagery shown utilizing the latest in technology, breaths new life into the story. It it truly spectacular! As for the storyline, it continues to parallel the original story up to a point then you realize the Angels are more spectacular and more powerful. This adds more action to the full feature movie, not to mention the music. Yes, I must comment about the music. Even though I am a member of an orchestra, I feel everyone who sees the movie would agree that the powerful music written and conducted by Shiro Sagisu, is not over the top but adds to he drama and the spectacle of 60 foot tall giant bio-robots. Also, the storyline has been expanded and we get a better understanding of the characters...call it character development... Finally, for all the fans that waited for this release, there is an alternate audio track of commentary by the US cast and a second disk in the case that has 40 minutes of extras showing things like the technology behind the movie. Also there is a 20 page guidebook. The book is full of information to help those new to Evangelion to quickly catch up and understand this movie better (this anime is known for it's complex storyline combined with sporadic religious imagery). This second movie of the four movie series ends leaving the viewer wanting more and wets the appetite for the next movie: Evangelion: Q The Quickening.
