I guess bro, My friends told me to watch evangelion and this is what i found, they said it was pretty sad, and about some depressed teenager but it’s just a kid’s show, the animation’s fine
I’d say this is the best Gainax work ever
My favourite character is definitely Eva-01, he made all the work
jokes aside what were they even thinking when they made this, they were onto something
i might have lost braincells watching this so that’s why I’m giving it a 6/10
it was pretty funny, hilarious, laughable (not really)
still better than solo leveling, definitely worth your time more than that

It's incredible how bad this anime is. Mini-character spin-offs are usually nothing remarkable, but they're not particularly bad either. At most, you can expect short jokes and simple plots to pass the time. On the other hand, Petit Eva delivers tasteless and incredibly poor humor (there are even poop jokes). Sometimes there aren’t even actual jokes, just generic situations that aren’t funny at all. As if that weren’t enough, some episodes recycle plots by showing them from other perspectives.
As for the cast, there's nothing to say. They're the same characters from Evangelion, but here they obviously lack depth and development. There are no dialogues actually.
Visually, the anime features clumsy 3D animation, environments that look like they’re straight out of an old video game, and man…

I mean I hate Evangelion already as many of you “lovely” people out there know and have responded with such “lovely” words in a manner befitting a human. So colour me surprised that this exists to basically just reinforce my justified hatred of the series. Why does it exist? No reason. Does it need to exist? No. Do I like it for existing? Yes. Why? It pissed off the fans who made my life a misery for many years and revenge is just sweet. I can rest easy knowing Anno has left this franchise far behind him to focus on bigger and better efforts, seriously, Shin Ultraman and Shin Kamen Rider can't come soon enough.

Needless to say, Petit Eva: Evangelion@School defined my personality and changed my life. Before I watched this anime, I really didn't know what living was really like, but Hideaki Anno's masterful work on this anime really allowed me to understand myself and the world around me in much better ways and has left me with infinite questions after watching about psychology and the spirit.
Story: 10
The story is near the bible-tier quality of story-telling and masterful world-building. Episode 1 started the anime off strong, showcasing the duality of man versus machine. While man must eat food to survive, machines must eat batteries, and life must prosper as such. Philosophical questions such as these continue into the anime's runtime, and I really started to ponder the nature of the human ex…

This is much better than people credit it for. Especially as a parody which brings its own funny take to the series. It's easy to see why it's hated on - when you think Evangelion your first thought is "deeper meaning" or "complex psychological symbolism." But this is a different take, a take which was revealed to be possible in episode 26 of the original series.
Its OKAY to have a silly version of Evangelion. No, the series doesn't have to be "the true Evangelion." Word of advice - watch this with some family or friends who don't know anything about the franchise - it's much more fun that way.
This show is far from a masterpiece and has major deficits in the graphics, sound, and pacing departments, but who cares? You should see this for what it is, a silly string of comedic shorts that…

eva petit is the best thing since sliced bread. this show changed my life forever and i will forever be indebted to it. the characterizations for everyone was by far the best thing i have ever witnessed. this show should be displayed in a museum to forever be engraved into society. i believe this is the REAL evangelion, and it is certainly MY evangelion.
i believe wholeheartedly that shinji being shat on repeatedly has a deeper meaning, and hideaki anno would be proud of this masterpiece. watching the daily lives of rei's family has been a truly eye opening experience. i wish i could have my memory erased or suffer severe brain damage so i could watch this show again for the first time. thank you Petit Eva: Evangelion@School, i will cherish you for as long as my soul remains in this univ…

The series is a parody of Neon Genesis Evangelion, in which the entire cast of the original series are now everyday students going to junior high school together at Tokyo-3. The series features three "Rei sisters": one is a child younger than the rest based on "Rei 1", the second is based on "Rei 2" (the Rei seen for most of the normal series), and the third Rei is actually based on the hyperactive and klutzy "Alternate Rei" (the Rei seen in the alternate-reality dream sequence from the final episode of the original series). Additionally, Evangelion Unit-01 itself is one of their classmates, but this time as a human-sized robot.
This show was an absolute masterpiece of a parody, all the characters were nothing short of hilarious, truly an incredible masterpiece work of art that will fore…

Do you want to watch hollow caricatures of your favorite eva pilots getting shit on, again and again, until they're unrecognizable monsters?
No, I'm not taking a jab at the Rebuild series, I am asking you a genuine question: Do you want to see Shinji Ikari literally covered in feces?
If your answer is yes, then I have just the show for you: Petit Eva: Evangelion@School
My relationship with this ONA starts a few years ago in Akihabara. I was burning time at a second-hand store, looking for nothing in particular. Rummaging through a clearance bin, I stumbled across a chibi Asuka figure in a box labeled "Evangelion@School" and priced at ¥400. I looked up the figure and found it going for a lot more on auction sites so, of course, I bought it.
Now, listen. I'm not a big fan of cutesy thing…

This series follows the lovable cast of the Evangelion series which will compel any fan to at least be curios of these shorts but I must warn you to stay away.
I can excuse the poor CG if the narratives was good, however I am often left confused at what I have just watched and what is actually going on which is not helped by the lack of dialogue. Each episodes is around 3 minutes long and consists of a very random sketch such as Shinji and Unit 01 fighting over who can get Rei on their bicycles as they ride to school, this series has NO plot connection to the original so can be safely skipped.
The main question I am leaving myself with these shorts is why was it made and who are they for.

I never suspected myself to rate something with 1's across the board.
I don't even have to get into detail. The biggest question is: Who is this for? A child could watch it, but then they'd be interested in NGE, and I don't think a child should watch NGE. So, in that respect, it's inappropriate to introduce a child to this ONA. And, since it's not appropriate for children, it's easy to see how this definitely isn't for adults. I mean, it's just bad.
Not even going to break down each category. Just trust my 1-rating for each category and avoid this.

Overview:
NOPE!!!! NOPE!!! NOPE!!!! NOOOO!!!! OH GOD WHY!!?
If you ever wanted absolute, definitive proof that Gainax doesn't give a FUCK about their devoted Eva fandom, look no further than this claymation abortion that Gainax actually slapped their approval on. In TV, Movies, or literature I have never seen such a complete disconnect between fans that worship something as an absolute artistic masterpiece, and creators who have such open disdain for their own fans.
12 year old wannabe elitist on MAL and 4chan: "You guys, Eva is the DEEPEST animu EVERRR! Not only is Anno the greatest psychological writer since Shakespeare and Dostoevsky, he is the greatest stream of consciousness writer since Joyce and Woolf, and the greatest Avant Garde, symbolic filmmaker since Tarkovsky and Bergman!…

I finally got around to watching the two DVDs of the "Puchi EVA - Evangelion School" box set. This is a set of 3D CG chibi character stories based upon the characters from EVA, but set in a junior high. The collection is from Star Child, KIBA 91633-4, and consists of a "Nice Rainbow Disc" DVD with 9 short episodes, and a "Xebec Disc" with 15 short episodes. The total time of the material is 134 minutes. The box set was released on March 3, 2009. There are TV ads for the series on both discs, as well as interviews with the creative teams, and some rather unique "making of" shorts on the "Nice Rainbow" episodes, and music videos of the opening and closing theme songs on the "Xebec" disc. The box also came with a little model of EVA 1 in its "Evanchou" form, along with a number of accessories…
