VHS rip for episodes 1-24. I think parts of the screen were cut off, because when the English episode title shows, the right side has parts missing. But it never really detracts from the actual action. As for the image quality, it's pretty decent. It won't make you cringe, it won't blow you away. Episodes 25 and 26 were ripped from the R1 DVD. the quality is better for those 2 eps, and nothing is cut off. However, the opening of one of the earlier episodes (Ep 20 I think) was screwed up completely. Screwed up as if the disc had been dragged through the streets by a wild bull. (No my disc wasn't scratched, others have had the same problem.) The movies are Widescreen-ish, and they have better quality than eps 1-24 and well.

Decent. I didn't use surround sound or anything to test it out, but I could hear everything just fine.

Don't even THINK about buying this set if you're a first time viewer. You'll end up being charmed by the first 20 eps, only to be frustrated to the point of insanity by the poor quality of the subs on the rest of the eps and the movies. (25 and 26 excluded). Said subtitles aren't as bad as other HK originals, such as the MI release of AKIRA. Still it won't help you understand Eva, which isn't the simplest anime to begin with. If you just want to relive Eva, and you don't own the R1's, go ahead and buy this. But if you haven't seen Eva or the movies, don't waste your time and money.

Very good MI rip. Unfortunately there is one episode were the opening is incomplete and the video just goes crazy. My ps2 simply couldn't read it. Though after the opening the episode is perfect. I don't recomend this set if you're expecting of watching it on a PS2. Episodes 1-24 are a MI rip and 25-26 are an R1 rip.

No problems here despite of the episode were the video goes crazy.

If you're a Eva-fan you should really buy this set. I advise this set if you already know the story because the subtitles of the movies are really hard to understand. Now, for the menus, the 4th dvd is an R1 rip so it's very good but the other 3 discs are really bad. Just an ungly picture with a music from the serie playing. The menus of the first 3 discs are also in japanese so i suggest you do the configurations and the scene access from you dvd remote. To conclude, the package is excelent and the images are really cool. A must-have for Eva-fans.

As for the TV series episodes 1-24 it's a MI rip, wich was ripped from LD i think...the Quality is pretty decent but nothing spectacular. Episodes 25 and 26 are R1 rips, and the Video is a little better. The Movies are a rip from the MI set ... ripped from DVD i think. Overall it's a mixed bag...but pretty good overall.

Everything Sounded Good if not excepcional...specially episodes 1-24 wich were a little worse than the rest of the set.

This set contains Both Movies (Death&Rebirth and End of Evangelion). Overall it's a little of a mixed bag, since the set doesn't come all from the same source. What's really good about this set is that it contain ALL the 26 episodes of the TV series and both movies in a nice gatefold.

If its a vhs rip its one of the best ones I have ever seen. A little bleeding a bit of pixelation in the fast motion scenes but overal this set has a pretty nice video.

a little buzzing but that could of just been my tv, besides that I didn't find anything wrong with the audio.

the menus are in japanese in the first 3 discs so that is kind of annoying but I'd say this is one of the best eva sets out there, of cource no match for the R1 but if you want to save 130 bucks and you are a fan of the series or just want to try something new, this is a must have.(*edit* there is now an R1 rip or this series so I no longer recomend it*
