Synopsis:
In the earliest battles against the monstrous Angels, young Eva pilots Shinji and Rei were forced to carry humanity's hopes on their shoulders. Now, with the deadly onslaught of the Angels escalating and the apocalyptic Third Impact looming, Shinji and Rei find their burden shared by two new Eva pilots, the fiery Asuka and the mysterious Mari. Maneuvering their enormous Eva machines into combat, the four young souls fight desperately to save mankind from the heavens - but will they be able to save themselves?
Review:
It's been a long wait, but better late than never I'd say. One of the classic mecha science fiction anime now undergoing a revamp of its own, and despite not having much background knowledge of where the series has headed toward, I still found this installment engaging enough to leave me wanting more especially since it ended on a cliffhanger of sorts, even though it's yet another long wait before the third film hit the screens over here.
Evangelion continues where we last left off in its cinematic version, and the Earth is now under protection by the EVA robots around the world, still piloted by children. There are plans now underway to be more humane though, in piloting the EVAs like unmanned drones from afar, thus keeping the kids out of harm's way. But then there are other plans brewing at sinister levels, which only get hinted at here, clearly sowing the seeds in this installment for something more to come in the future films.
Elements from the earlier film have become staple, and repeated, such as the cheeky way the female characters always get portrayed in teasing the audience / fanboys with various states of dress / near wardrobe malfunction, and hey, besides lead character Shinji Ikari (voiced by Megumi Ogata), every one of his peer pilot seem to be female, and in the opening we're introduced to the pilot for EVA No 5 to start off the film literally with a bang, and EVA No 2's pilot Asuka Langley Shikinami (Yuko Miyamura) in her bright red robot and uniform, in an instant confirming the suspicion that here's one hot chili who isn't afraid to speak her mind. I like this feisty character, who brings a breath of fresh air from the quiet Rei Ayanami (Megumi Hayashibara) and Shinji's pessimism. Other elements would include the countless religious imagery, which is now more in-your-face, and I suppose it should all make sense once the final film rolls around.
The narrative found perfect balance to go a little deeper into the motivation of the various characters, though the kid pilots leave more room as intended for future growth, since Rei is a quiet enigma, Shinji still being the reluctant hero, and Asuka the live-wire who doesn't mince her words, even if criticizing her Japanese counterparts quite pointedly and in some ways, offensively too. A large chunk of the story got devoted to a suggestion of a love triangle that didn't manage to play itself out due to the constant alien threat, but got to a point enough to affect the events that follow, and to make them a sledgehammer for emotions.
Then there's the action sequences, which are still as spectacular. The Angels' designs get weirder, and their attack more powerful of course, though the EVAs have a few more tricks up their sleeves, brought about by really pushing the envelope beyond what has so far been permissible. With humans at the helm of technology, we are always in control and can add that aspect of humanity without allowing technology itself from going berserk. This gets explored and discussed somewhat, especially when a dummy module gets its field day when called upon to override some human inaction, and I assure you your jaw will drop and how enemies get pulverized, which is something which I least expected, in an action-packed, yet moving scene which will get you all riled up. Then again this shows how important it is to have a human mind in control, over something else which dictates its actions through set rules, and executed without a soul of thought.
As a follow up film, this one lived up to the potential set by its predecessor, and expanded upon that universe with more Evangelion protocols, new and improved mecha capabilities, and characters you feel for, while still keeping a lid on the intrigue posed by the organizations NERV and Seele. No prior knowledge of the earlier film is required, though you would be better off to know some basics to enjoy the film a lot more. Needless to say the fans would lap this up, especially when the trailer for the 3rd film gets played after the end credits that offered that sneak peek into what's next, and that antagonizing wait for it to actually happen.
Shinji Ikari (voice of Spike Spencer) and Rei Ayanami (voice of Brina Palencia) work as EVA pilots who have already defeated their nemesis, ironically named Angels, in past battles. When the Angels re-emerge and threaten mankind with a Third Impact, two new pilots join Shinji and Rei, namely, Asuka Langley (voice of Tiffany Grant) and Mari Illustrious Mikanami (voice of Maaya Sakamoto) in their new battles to restore peace. The plot gets increasingly complex as the dynamics between the four EVA pilots evolve and as the tensions emerge between the STEELE and NERV organizations which cause even more potential problems once the new set of battles with the Angels commence. Shinji and Asuka, for instance, develop a strong physical attraction to one another and often flirt. So, if you’re unfamiliar with the Evangelion series and start with this one, you’ve probably noticed by now that it’s not your typical brainless, action-packed sci-fi adventure because screenwriter Hideaki Anno has written a compelling, imaginative and, for the most part, intelligent story with interesting characters. Moreover, you’ll find a few moments of surprise along the way. Unless you’re an avid fan, though, you might be confused by some of the events that transpire because there’s not much in terms of exposition, so it’s advised that you freshen up on Evangelion 1.0 beforehand. On a positive note, even if you do find yourself perplexed, there’s still plenty of eye candy to be found thanks to co-director Masayuki and Kazuya Tsurumaki’s use of dazzling, colorful animation that’s filled with attention to foreground and background details. The action sequences themselves feel quite exciting, and the soundtrack includes a few well-chosen songs with poetic lyrics. At a running time of 1 hour and 48 minutes Evangelion 2.0: You Can (Not) Advance is an exhilarating adventure that offers compelling characters, a wonderfully imaginative story and dazzling special effects. Newbies might feel slightly perplexed, though.
