Watched entire Blue Seed. Rewatched ep 24 - 26 three times because I really like the ending. The Rite of Matsuri tune is catchy. Was pleasantly surprised that Blue Seed was drawn as the same design as 3X3. Tempting to buy the R1 because MAC Blue Seed only has an Omake on disk1 which apparently there is an Omake in every disk..
Also watched Eva movie 1 and 2 without having ever watched ep 1-26. I've read the transcript (fansubs?) of Eva and have avoided watching it given many anime have borrowed ideas from it (ie Dual Parallel). I must say WOW after watching the movies and getting a sense why Eva is one of the formidable anime in anime history. The story is very rich and there's sufficient gore unsuitable for the fainted hearts. Very tempted to get the R1...(as I hear the faint cries from my wallet)
