Rating: Summary: JEEEEzus! (no spoilers) Review: I don't know what else to say besides what's already been said. I'll just summarize it the best way I know how. If EVA is the best anime series ever (which it just might be), then episodes 18-20 have got to be the BEST ANIMATED ANYTHING I've ever seen. Holy geez, even the dub pulled off a great job. Buy this disc. Just friggin' BUY it.
Rating: Summary: Great show, but not for the weak stomached! Review: I just saw the show where the Eva unit 01 goes nuts and starts tearing 03 to pieces, and I must say this really shocked me! The Eva 01 grabs 03 by the neck, tosses it to the grounds, stomps it, and then proceeds to rip the 03 to pieces. There's blood galore, this DVD is not for the weak stomached!!!I hear the angel getting eaten is pretty nasty, too. This DVD is not for anybody under 14! Actually though, afterwards I must say Princess Mononoke is alot bloodier...If you were allowed to see Mononoke, you should be able to see this.I took away a star because of the violence.
Rating: Summary: Things are hotting up now! Review: If you've been buying the EVA DVDs from volume 1 - this is where it all pays off! - by far the best DVD so far. The plot's coming in thick and fast, questions are being answered and new ones are being asked. The angel battles are getting more and more spectacular, and visually stunning, and.... nah.... im gonna give too much away! All i can say is that more is said about the origins of the EVAs, and other surprises.Extras are still a bit thin on the ground, just some profiles and trailers. It would be nice if there were a gallery of production sketches and such. The picture also lacks compared to other Anime DVDs like Cowboy bebop and trigun. Still though, content over quality! - and the content is goooood!
Rating: Summary: Amazing... astounding, a must have! Review: In short, nobody can tell you what happens on this DVD and it would be a shame if they did. Anything you expect to happen won't, then will when you realize this, they do the opposite of what you're thinking, then once more doing the opposite of the opposite of that. Needless to say this volume is worth every penny, because things REALLY are taking off now. Just when you think one problem is solved, thousands of more mysteries pop up. Every character you thought you knew so well you don't! If you don't know already, follow the series order, DON'T skip ahead, and this volume will be a blast!!
Rating: Summary: REALLY EXCELENT !!! Review: In Vol.6 the EVA mystery is kind of answered,as much as anything is on the series,Shinji is proven to be the best pilot and the ony one to really pilot an EVA.Technically the animation is as usual flawless. The climax of the story is the true nature of the EVA-pilot bond which you have to see to believe. Trully a fine anime!
Rating: Summary: This is when the series his the fan... Review: It is really starting at this point, episode 18, where the story begins to become much more dark. Up to now it was mainly an action/comedy series but now it all but abandons comedy for serious drama and some major plot development. Be warned, the series is disturbing from here on out. However, dark as it is, this is really where the series takes off.
Rating: Summary: Here we go! Review: Okay people, for those of you who don't know already, this is where the the proverbial poop hits the fan, and let me tell ya, it hits hard. For those of you who thought Eva was some kinda kiddie mecha action show, this is where you get proven wrong. All comedy and fun is checked at the door and the real story begins to unfold. Seele and Gendo's true plans begin to unveil and our characters start thier long, painfull spiral into the blackness. But trust me, it gets worse though; just wait for Manga's release of The End of Evangelion this summer and you'll see what I mean.
Rating: Summary: BLEEEEEEED! Review: Ouch! These 3 episodes were hard to watch the first time around. They were very disturbing, because the violence was absolutely mind numbing and gory.
Rating: Summary: The best DVD in the bunch, the best episodes in the bunch! Review: Quite simply, this is the place the plot was building to. The tension, the personalities, the people all reach their head here. Shinji finally starts making decisions of his own- much to the chagrin of everyone around him.. and Kaji, well, Kaji proves to be the most inciteful and insightful character of the bunch. Thank you, Kaji, for your sermon amongst the watermelons, its simply the best scene in modern anime. The DVD is fairly light on the features and functionality, but that has been a gripe from day one about the Eva DVDs. Thankfully, their story is carried well enough that it doesn't matter.. But still, this is a popular series and really deserving of better presentation. Sadly, the series ends in many ways after this DVD. They mix the psychological and the physical so well for this DVD that everything afterwords seems like an Epilogue. The choices were made here, fates decided on the spur of the moment. In short, this is a must-have dvd in the series. Rent the rest, own number 6.
