>>4239862The Rebuilds aren't quite up to the quality of NGE and EoE, but overall I did enjoy them quite a bit. Got some great Asuka designs (even if they made her a jobber), 1.11 and 2.22 are both great since they mostly stick to what made the first half of NGE so engaging. 3.33 and Thrice are pretty out there and feel more like generic mecha where there's an insane amount happening on screen to distract you from the lack of depth, but I'd still say they're worth watching.
The restrictions that NGE and EoE faced compared to the Rebuilds helped form them into the timeless classics they are, pressure can turn things into diamonds after all. It probably helps that I view them as two entirely separate timelines, the Rebuilds are basically a retelling instead of a sequel / multiverse.
