Connections, in both directions
Warriors of the Wind (1984)
Directed by Hayao Miyazaki
influenced Neon Genesis Evangelion: The End of Evangelion (1997)
He crammed Evangelion full of themes and iconography from Judeo-Christian texts, science-fiction novels, Hayao Miyazaki’s Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind (which Anno helped animate), and even a Robert Browning poem, among other sources, but he got really obsessed with psychology after falling into a deep battle with depression .
The Many Saints of Newark (2021)
Directed by Alan Taylor
influenced by Neon Genesis Evangelion: The End of Evangelion (1997)
Like Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me or The End of Evangelion , this film is so deeply immersed in the dense mythology and self-contained symbolism of its epochal TV predecessor that to assess it as a stand-alone story on its own terms would be a meaningless endeavor.
2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)
Directed by Stanley Kubrick
influenced Neon Genesis Evangelion: The End of Evangelion (1997)
The franchise is also an anime classic — equivalent in acclaim, auteurship, and cultural footprint to America’s Twin Peaks or 2001: A Space Odyssey.
