Tenchi Masaki
is just an ordinary Tokyo schoolboy, when in his usual summer
vacation in Okayama, working in his grandfathers shrine, he
unleashes an ancient demon from a cave. He eventually subdues
her with a mysterious sword his family has had for generations.
Following that, several new female visitors enter their household,
and he has to look after them all to prevent them fighting,
and getting to grips with his new found power. What he doesn't
realise is they all like him and choose to stay because of him. |

Shinji Ikari lives in a world devastated by a meteor impact,
called the Second Impact. He's been called to Tokyo-3 by his
father who he hasn't seen in many years. He's been employed
by NERV to destroy an enemy known as the Angels, and he's
been assigned to pilot a giant mecha. From the start he despises
his job, and we view his inner turmoil, and those around him,
as the series progresses to the final conclusion.
