    Neon Genesis Avangelion

    Spoiler alert: New Japan future end times with giant fighting fallen angels and a complex religiously fueled convoluted plot into destroying the world and needing a confused bitch boy teenager to pilot one and save the world.

    Also he sees a boob of a hospitalized girl and jerks off to her. Turns out she was a teen clone of his moms DNA mixed with the soul of one of the Angels.

    It's one of the most known and highly regarded animes of the 1990's and the very interpretative plot has amassed very long summaries and descriptions and re-watches etc from the anime crowds.

    Is it worth a watch?

    If you like anime, then it's worth the watch (it's just a 26 episode season and a couple movies that did kind of some retellings) just so you've watched it and you'll recognize and understand the million memes and references of it.

    It's a pretty good, but somewhat dated anime. After one watching though, you really will probably have to read a summary to understand and pick up on everything you just watched. Between the translation or dubs and all the other not so obvious things going on, there's a lot of stuff in there that most people will not notice right away.
