That it’s a classic that everyone need to see and revolutionized the Super Robot genre, that it’s unspeakably bizarre and will make you want to slap the annoying protagonist silly, or both, or some third reputation?

Evangelion is… Evangelion. It’s the kind of work that is very hard to apply adjectives to. That said, it’s very good.
Just be sure that you watch The End of Evangelion after watching all the episodes. I have a friend who watched all the episodes of Evangelion, then went around for quite some time thinking he had finished watching the whole show. Only months later did he find out that there was more, and that he had in fact missed out on the entire climax of the show.
I just finished Neon Genesis Evangelion. If you haven’t seen it yet, it lives up to its reputation.
Which one?

Ha, both. I really enjoyed it though.
If you thought NGE was too light-hearted and hopeful, move on to Bokurano. If you want more of the same, but coherent, move on to RahXephon.
