Evangelion 1.01: You Are (Not) Alone...

I've just seen the relaunch effort of Neon Genesis Evangelion...
Tokyo-3 still stands after most of civilization was decimated in the Second Impact. Now the city endures the ceaseless onslaught of the deadly Angels, bizarre creatures bent on eradicating the human race. To combat this strange and ruthless enemy, the government agency NERV constructs a fleet of towering humanoid machines - the Evas - and Shinji Ikari is called into action, reluctantly taking his place at the controls of Eva Unit 01.

Living a life of loneliness and questioning his existence, Shinji struggles to accept responsibility for mankind's battle for survival. Shinji will fight the Angels alongside the only person who might understand his plight - Rei Ayanami, the elusive and frail pilot of Eva Unit 00.

Original Ramiel
New Ramiel
Based on the 1995 anime Neon Genesis Evangelion, Evangelion 1.01: You Are (Not) Alone features a similar and somewhat condensed storyline of the first three volumes of the original with updated sound and images. My favorite angel is still Ramiel, who gets a serious upgrade in the relaunch. Even though, the story is essentially the same as the original, I'm still very pleased with the relaunch.
