It is the future and the world is at war.
Vast swathes of the civilised world have been obliterated, and only those areas that were able to defend themselves have survived.
New Tokyo is one such place.
Giant, mechanical creatures known as Angels attack anywhere they believe there to be a vulnerability, and they are particularly interested in destroying NERVE, the HQ of which is in New Tokyo.
Mankinds only hope are the Eva's, huge, semi-organic bio-suits that are mechanized and armoured, and require a human pilot. Thing is, the pilot's don't choose the suits, the suits choose the pilots.
Intelligent, gripping and action packed, this is one of the best Anime's out there.
Simply stunning.
