Common questions
In what order should I watch the different versions of Evangelion?
SpectralFire has written a good guide
I just watched the end of the tv show. What. The. What?
Congratulations! For more explanation, try here, here, and here.
I just watched End of Evangelion. What. The. HELL?
An idiot's guide might help. Also try here or here.
Ok. I just don't get it. What the hell just happened?
Try Evageeks for various explanations and theories.
Should I read Sadamoto's manga?
It's very similar to the anime, but has some scenes left out and some new scenes. There's more backstory to it and more focus on Rei than in the series. The final issue was published in June 2013.
I've watched all there is of Evangelion, but want more. Is there anything else? Here's a list of various manga and good fan fiction of Evangelion
Congratulations?
Congratulations!

Quality over quantity. A user may only submit one post within a 24 hour period. Groups of like content must be submitted as a list, gallery, or playlist, rather than as multiple, separate posts.
Any post seeking or supplying copyrighted material is not allowed and will be removed from the subreddit. The only exceptions are content that falls under fair use (AMVs, fanart, fanfics, etc...).
A user may only submit a shitpost if the user's preceding post is of a different content type. Otherwise, the post will be removed.
All jurisdiction falls upon the mods. If we decide it should be removed, it will be removed. If we decide it should stay, it will stay. However, we value your opinions, so you are free to state why you think our decision was wrong concerning a post.
