Evangelion: 1.0 You Are (Not) Alone at 52% is about as even as it gets. The voters are divided, and 31 matchups haven't settled the debate. A retelling that functions simultaneously as entry point and nostalgia trip, giving it two distinct voter bases. The downside is that neither base considers it the definitive version of the story it's telling. Fans decide quickly — 0.7s avg vs 3.5s platform average.

Synopsis

After the Second Impact, Tokyo-3 is being attacked by giant monsters called Angels that seek to eradicate humankind. The child Shinji’s objective is to fight the Angels by piloting one of the mysterious Evangelion mecha units. A remake of the first six episodes of GAINAX’s famous 1996 anime series. The film was retitled “Evangelion: 1.01” for its DVD release and “Evangelion: 1.11” for a release with additional scenes.
