It's supposed to be super chalk full of symbolism and what not. I personally think they fail at it, but I can definitely see it.

To really understand NGE, you must watch it at least 10 times... and even then, you'll still be going WTF?

Reading
this book
will help you understands the symbolism.
About the ending, it barely make any kind of sense. It was so weird than the creator decided to create a "proper"
ending
.
It was a nice anime, the story was great. Too bad, the main character was such a pussy.

I think it was an awesome show and movie. It makes you think. It makes your head hurt. It's a great concept, and a great show.
If you wanna watch just another "action-packed" knockoff anime, go watch Bleach or Naruto or something. If you wanna watch
great
anime, then I recommend NGE.

I liked NGE, but I agree it got a little funky near the end... I still liked it though =D
I recommend Last Exile if you've not seen it -- it's pretty good and less brain-hurty =) (available on Netflix streaming too)

Hmmm... I had forgotten about Evangelion and Escaflowne... going to go look into those again...
Anyway I would rather have a WTF ending to a series than no actual ending at all... looking at you Tenjo Tenge... and yes I'm aware the story continued in the manga... but to build up the story like that then stop with no resolution was just a big middle finger...
I definitely agree with this, I won't name any names for spoiler-prevention purposes, but there's so many anime stories with nothing even closely resembling an 'ending' whatsoever.
A "big middle finger" is a perfect description of how you feel when the last episode on the last DVD rolls its credits. So lame.
