If you are into Action,Gore, and Violence with Great Character Developement this is a great series. Ending leaves a bit of a sour taste in the mouth. (Read the Manga to get the full story)
A little heavy on the religious overtones but a great series none the less. Again, ending is less than desired but get the "End of Evangelion" DVD for an alternate
Great Series. Be sure to watch OVA's Samurai X :Trust & Betrayal first, then series, then Samurai X: The movie, then, Samurai X: Reflections to get the whole experience
