The first episode of Evangelion Rebuild seemed promising, and it gave some hints about the potential new directions Anno may take the Rebuild series in compared to the original anime.
Fans and viewers were pleased with the first episode of the Rebuild of Evangelion despite its obvious similarities to the first six episodes of the original series. To fans of the original series, You Can (Not) Advance will seem like a radical departure, even as it improves upon familiar situations.
Furthermore, this contribution lacks the anguish and unnecessarily philosophical babbling that detracted from his first amusing innovation. In contrast to the show, the characters here form new relationships with one another and act in novel ways. There's been a lot of great growth for the three EVA pilots from the first season, and the programme departs dramatically from NGE in a way that works extremely well. New people are introduced, the stakes are raised, and a lot of groundwork is laid for what turns out to be an amazing climax.
The tone is darker and the pace faster in this version of the film. This is the first movie in a while that has had my heart racing in reaction to the tense or terrifying sequences on screen, and the action is thrilling. A lot happens, and it's fascinating to see. The film is less heavy than NGE and EOE while being more gruesome and yet having its moments of pure nightmare fuel because of the playful interactions between people and the humour.
Despite the fact that it's a lot bloodier, it's still preferred. Evangelion's soundtrack is at its best in this picture, and it does not disappoint. Anno clearly makes the out-of-place songs fit as well as he did in the show and EOE, and the soundtrack has everything from a superbly arranged racing soundtrack to gorgeous and engaging J-pop.
The episode was a memorable addition to the series, and it gives me high hopes for the next two instalments. The film is a significant advancement for the whole series; the radical alterations it presents promise much bigger things to come, and it elevates the stakes for the Evangelion universe. Anno appears to have overcome his depression and evolved into a fantastic storyteller and world builder.
