Press:
"Hulking human-dimensioned modules with design pointing the way to prophesied amalgamations of flesh and circuitry, the Evangelions rank in the top bracket of contraptions dreamt up by Japanese animators. Battle scenes deliver everything required, and imaginative touches include the sight of Tokyo-3 retreating from the Earth's surface when danger approaches.
Assembled by a team of returning key creatives, tech package is geared up with the latest CGI software without betraying the sharp lines and simple facial expressions of the original material. Credited as "chief director," Anno's input extends to personally laying down tracks used in the film's sophisticated sound design." - Variety
