Earlier this year, Devilman Crybaby made an exclusive debut on the streaming powerhouse, followed by other popular series like Aggretsuko and B: The Beginning. Shinji Ikari, who is chosen to pilot the Humanoid Decisive Weapon Evangelion, has the fate of humanity on his shoulders. The series takes place in 2015 and sees Tokyo three under attack by mechanical monsters known as the Angels. Neon Genesis Evangelion originally aired in Japan in the month of October 1995 with a 26-episode run. In its ongoing pursuit to become a major player in the anime space with over a dozen premium anime series already streaming, the acquisition of the much-acclaimed Neon Genesis Evangelion is only going to boost its position. Netflix is soon going to stream Neon Genesis Evangelion worldwide along with four other anime series in spring 2019.
