A unique blend of religion-inspired science fantasy and an effective psychological distortion. Plus, the Evas are actually living beings. I read some articles, and the religious references are innumerable, and all so well constructed and/or hidden. That why it's not like other anime. It's heart-wrenching, surprisingly realistic for its complex plot, and the movie is a replacement ending that suited the fans so much it is known as one of the greatest films ever made, possibly better than greats like Grave of the Fireflies and Totoro. I watch a lot of anime.
I don't generally like mecha anime. I love this.
