At the dawn of the new millennium, mankind has awakened a threat unlike any faced before- The Angels. Conventional weapons are useless against them. They can only be stopped by means of the Evangelions- bio-engineered vessels born from the Angels' own technology. But this forbidden knowledge is also the key to bringing about a startling new genesis for the human race. Placed in the hands of three young pilots, the final fate of humanity resting upon their shoulders, the Evas are the world's last hope...
Welcome to the Apocalypse From the Animators at Production I.G. (Ghost in the Shell, Blood: The Last Vampire) & Studio GAINAX (The Wings of Honneanmise) comes the first half of the sensational Two Part conclusion to the Neon Genesis Evangelion saga.
Featuring groundbreaking animated action sequences and mind-blowing dramatic revelations. Death and Rebirth is truly a composition of epic proportions!
EVANGELION, certainly one of the most popular, and arguably one of the best animes ever produced, is one of the rare sci-fi series that actually follows through on the ambitious themes and ideas that it presents. The series is set in the year 2015, fifteen years after what was supposedly a meteorite struck Antarctica, wiping out half the population of the Earth and leaving the rest to contend with rising sea levels and to figure out exactly what happened. Chief among the mysteries is the arrival of the Angels, an alien race who are possibly responsible for the subsequent attacks on Tokyo.
DEATH & REBIRTH is a dramatic retelling of the series, offering the story from the various perspectives of the series's main characters. Its first half is a condensed version of episodes 1-24 of the series, supplemented with new animated sequences brought to life by the original voice-actors from the series. The last half of the film is an alternate version of episode 25 in which Seele, the secret organization behind the Evangelion and Human Complementation projects, tries wrest away control of the operation from its director, Ikari Gendo, out of fear that he is going to use the projects for his own purposes.
