“Neon Genesis Evangelion” completed its run on Japanese television in 1996 a quarter century later, the franchise it launched is more popular than ever. On top of all that, he has to deal with all the typical stresses of being a teenager while regularly hopping into a giant biomechanical robot in order to defend humanity from the threat of monstrous beings tellingly referred to as “Angels.” And with each new iteration of the pioneering anime “ Neon Genesis Evangelion,” Shinji relives this cycle of death, depression, and rebirth all over again.
He’s actually kind of a mess, but not without damn good reason: His mother died when he was 3 years old, his father abandoned him, and his entire world view has been shaped by the people around him, who try to maneuver Shinji any which way they’d like.
