The End of Evangelion is a 1997 Japanese anime apocalyptic science fiction film written by Hideaki Anno, directed by Anno and Kazuya Tsurumaki, and animated by Gainax and Production I.G.

It serves as an alternate ending to the television series Neon Genesis Evangelion, which aired from 1995 to 1996. The story follows the teenagers Shinji Ikari, Rei Ayanami and Asuka Langley Soryu, who pilot mechs called Evangelion to defeat enemies who threaten humanity named Angels. The film features the voice actors of the original series, including Megumi Ogata as Shinji, Yuko Miyamura as Asuka, and Megumi Hayashibara as Rei.

This boxset features slightly less footage, and the pacing is slightly different than other pressings of the films. No subtitles, only Japanese Audio. The two films are the re-release that was shown on theaters in 1998, not the original showing from 1997.
