Music Presentation:
A great soundtrack to an ending of a very popular series, Neon Genesis Evangelion. You can recognize the song Track 06 & 12 from classical music CDs. Track 06 is played during Asuka's battle with the Eva series. Track 08 & 11 are the only vocal songs on the CD. Track 08 is the ending theme of the movie, Track 11 is played during when everyone turns into LCL. The rest are various part of movie, from the evading SEELE to NERV, when Eva Unit 02 starts kicking butts to Misato's last moment with Shinji. Most of them are with chorus, religious type. It's really cool.

Audio 2.0:
A great Anime CD to be added to your collection. I find no problem listening to the music. Most of every song in the End Of Evangelion is feature on the CD. The tracks are well separated.

Packaging:
Well, it's one of the simple type of CD covers I every seen. You can take a look above. The back is just a clip when Shinji is crying over Asuka a the end of the movie, with the Eva series in the background. Though, I find the booklet is really cool, many screenshots. Plus, as an extra, a cool translucent-red CD case!

Overall CD Rating:
I only got this CD because I'm a huge fan of the series. Now, I love this CD & it is well worth it out to actually find an original copy.

Music Presentation: Cool music to rock the house!
Audio 2.0: No problem detected!
Packaging: Comes with a cool translucent-red CD case!
Overall CD Rating: It is worth it to get it, now all you need to do is to find one!
