Our take on Evangelion: 3.0+1.0 Thrice Upon a Time
The 2021 finale of the Rebuild of Evangelion films brings Hideaki Anno's saga to a startling, cathartic close, following a shattered Shinji through the wreckage of a near-ended world toward something like peace. Spectacular and deeply personal, it caps one of anime's defining works. If its apocalyptic scale and raw psychology gripped you, seek out ambitious mecha and existential anime that wrestle with trauma as much as with giant battles.
