Good Deal

Starters, I don't much care for special features. This set was perfect for me because of that. The thin cases save lots of room on the shelf, has all the episodes plus 4 director's cut episodes. The only problem I have with this is when you are watching it with subtitles, they don't have those fun facts pop up like when you watch it on the computer. I like those. Other than that it's perfect, good picture quality, actually really good picture quality, good sound, great product.
ADV has done an unbelievable job
September 16, 2008
I've already reviewed this show, but I am reviewing the way that ADV has put this package together. Put simply, it is amazing. Rather than putting the whole show on 8 discs, the regular run of the show is on 5 discs, plus a 6th disc with the 4 director's cut episodes. The picture and sound quality on these discs blows the old set's quality out of the water, and the convenient packaging saves a ton of space on my shelf (nothing really to do with the DVDs I know, but just a personal note there). Above all, the 4 director's cut episodes are actually quite well worth it with some very interesting footage (some flat-out creepy i might add!). Out of the 5 characters that were re-dubbed for this occasion, only 1 really needed it, but whatever. If you haven't watched Evangelion before, or if you want better sound and picture than the set you may currently own, then by all means you must pick this up! It only cost me 58 bucks brand new!
Brilliant series, but quite disturbing...
August 25, 2008
This series is very good, but it isnt something i would like to watch on a regular basis, like friends or family guy. The primary reason being it's so darn depressing, i would even go as far to say that watching this series too much could damage you mentaly, especially if your recovering from depresion. It makes the veiwer feel pointless, like theres no meaning to anything we do, it also projects the notion that life is just a lonley, hostile trudge to the grave...then again, some of you might like that kind of thing. I swear some people are only happy when thier miserable, if youre one then this is the show for you. On a more postive note, the show has several hilarious moments which will have you rolling around in stitches, plus it has some amazing fight sequences. I give it 4 stars for the artwork and originality of the story, plus the surreal effect it has on the veiwer, though it lacks the final star because its quite depresing.
Just short of everything I could have wanted

This box collection is an excellent addition to any fan of the Evangelion series. The four director's cut episodes make the series much easier to understand at times, showing scenes which add much more content to the plot. Only thing holding it back from a 5 star is the lack of the movie End of Evangelion with it, but really its no big deal.
