Note: The end of the Neon Genesis Evangelion left many questions as to the fate of NERV, the Children, the Angels, and many other plot factors unanswered, unexplained, or otherwise hanging. To answer a legion of now befuddled Evangelion fans, Gainax remade the ending into a two-part movie known as Death and Rebirth which was to supersede episodes 25 and 26 of the television series. Ultimately, Rebirth became only the first half of the first episode of The End of Evangelion, with some minor differences. The End of Evangelion picks up where Rebirth left off.

Revival of Evangelion is considered the final form of the Evangelion movies, which had been released in several forms prior to Revival. The Revival release includes Death(True)2 and The End of Evangelion.

Note: The 2003 Renewal of Evangelion is the final remastered version. It includes:

* The original TV series, episodes 1-20
* The Director's Cut of episodes 21-24 of the original TV series
* Death(True)^2, released on the ninth disc with the label of Revival of Evangelion
* The End of Evangelion, released on the tenth disc, with the label Evangelion – The Feature Film
