Neon Genesis Evangelion

The television ending and the theatrical ending cover the same two episodes, and the four Rebuild films tell the whole story a second time.

Where to start with Neon Genesis Evangelion

Watch the 1995 television series all the way through, all 26 episodes, then watch The End of Evangelion. Do not start with the Rebuild films and do not stop at episode 24. Everything else on this page is a recap or a second telling.

  1. 1
    Episodes 1 to 26 Neon Genesis Evangelion

    The complete broadcast run. Episodes 25 and 26 are the abstract finale made as the production ran out of money and time, and they do resolve the story on their own terms.

  2. 2
    The End of Evangelion The End of Evangelion

    Anno's theatrical version of those same last two episodes, made after the broadcast. It is not a sequel and it does not continue past episode 24.

  3. 3
    Evangelion: 1.0 You Are (Not) Alone Evangelion: 1.0 You Are (Not) Alone

    Only after you have finished the original. This begins a separate four film retelling that assumes nothing but rewards knowing the first version.

Then what? Continue through 2.0, 3.0 and 3.0+1.0 Thrice Upon a Time, which is the end of the Rebuild line. Skip Death & Rebirth and Revival of Evangelion unless you want to see the recap edits, because they contain no footage that is new to you.

A suggested way in, not an official one. The full list is below — tick anything off in either place.

Sync & backup

Your progress is saved on this device automatically. To carry it to another device, move the code below.

The code holds only this franchise. The link opens the tracker with your progress already filled in — good for showing someone where you're at. The image is a picture you can keep anywhere: scan the code on it with a phone, or drag the file back in below.

Drag a SagaList image here, or .

This reads the progress stored inside the picture, so nothing has to be retyped. If the image has been through a messaging app it may have been re-encoded and lost that — scan the code on it instead, or copy the code printed along the bottom.

Restoring replaces the progress currently saved on this device for the franchise the code belongs to.
