Viewing Notes

“Joy to the World” needle drop! That’s a Christmas hymn so counting this for Advent!

Gorgeous animation that looks beautiful on the big screen along with the booming audio made for an excellent experience at the theater. Easily the best looking of the films since they could use modern technology to animate (I still love the hand drawn 90s animation). Wasn’t sure I was going to attend this event but i probably should’ve watched the previous three movies just to get back into this batshit narrative. The entire series is bananas and this final installment really goes to some places.

I’m glad Hideaki Anno got to finish this story but it is so wild I barely understand it. Visually it’s incredible and I love most of these characters. Asuka is the best asshole. Love seeing her and Mari team up. All the stuff at the train yard is so good and had me hoping the entire movie was just them hanging out and chilling there.

I didn’t know until after the screening when I was looking it up on TMDb that it’s available on Amazon Prime! WTF that’s so weird it’s there and just now getting a theatrical release. Anyways I glad to have seen it on the big screen first. The animation is really nice especially the mixed media sequences.
