I'll be reviewing this article. It's probably one of the biggest articles I've ever seen in this project so I might take some time. Cheers.Tintor2 (talk) 00:20, 20 November 2021 (UTC)

Let's start with the simplest section. The lead.

• The lead suggests that there are many pilots but from what I recall is that the only other pilot besides Shinji was Rei Ayanami. Asuka was reintroduced in 2.0, right?
• Since there are only three notable voice actors in such paragraph you could briefly say who are these actors voicing in a single sentence.
• The second paragraph feels way too long. I would recommend splitting in "Tomoki Kyoda." and "The film, whi" since it goes from its production to its reception.
• Shouldn't CGI be linked?

That's all for the lead.Tintor2 (talk) 00:36, 20 November 2021 (UTC)

Plot

• I managed to understand everything properly except Seele's identity as it is linked.

Looks legit to me. I din't wrote the section, but that monolyth is obviously Lorentz Keel, the head of Seele.

Voice cast

• I would recommend searching for a list like a Funimation site or Behind the Voice Actors to refernce this properly for verifiability.

@Tintor2: Reviewed. Hope it works.--TeenAngels1234 (talk) 23:45, 20 November 2021 (UTC)

TeenAngels1234 not here (nor qualified) to do a full review - just wanted to point out that Stephanie Young, a Funimation-version VA, is not mentioned by the BTVA source at all. This one has the full cast list: https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2009-05-23/evangelion/1.0-english-dub-cast-announced/ The url is in full reference format on Young's wikipedia article - hope this helps!

Preproduction

• First place where Anno and other stuff like the End of Evangelion are mentioned in the body. They need wikilinks
• I get the idea of Gundamizing but it might need a further explanation.

Development

—

• Diebuster needs to be explained.
• Link Khara.
• ", which was originally supposed to be a robotic version of Sailor Moon. " Wait, the film was going to be based on Sailor Moon?
• The writing paragraph is kinda big. Maybe the changes to Misato among others could be split.
• Operation Yashima is not explained.
• CGI needs a link
• For some reason Gendo is written with a macron.
• The sales and popularity of Beautiful World seem more important for her single article.

This is all for now.

@Tintor2: Tried my best.--TeenAngels1234 (talk) 03:31, 21 November 2021 (UTC)

Minor tidbits but still acceptable:

Release

• "UCC Coffee, in particular, had already collaborated with Gainax during the release of End of Evangelion, producing Evangelion character-themed cans; for the release of Evangelion: 1.0, three hundred thousand cases of coffee were put on the market, corresponding to about nine million can" Seems a bit offplace.
• "On March 5, 2021, 1.0 was broadcast in its entirety on Prime Video Japan's YouTube channel" lacks italic on 1.0

Reception

• Things seen really well. I would suggest avoiding wikilinks for countries. Kinda too common.
